“Wait, the offense is the problem?”
Don’t get me wrong, the Oilers haven’t been fantastic on defense to start the season, but no one is surprised. We expect the best offense in the league to make up for it, though, and that hasn’t been the case so far. The snakebitten Oilers have been heating up and changing course, but they’re still scoring just 2.91 goals per game, the 15th worst clip leaguewide.
