If this continues much longer they might become the Spoilers after the trade deadline
If they get any worse they will have to relinquish the Soilers tag and take on the Coilers, which is even a lower ranking.

TOI for Oilers last yr:
Talbot - 4294
Oscar Klefbom - 1834
McDavid - 1733
Sekera - 1719
Last I checked Talbot is a goalie, and McDavid is a centre. So Sekera is the 2nd leader in minutes among defensemen in Edmonton. He?s a top 2 even for the team last yr. This yr he'd be 3 behind Larsson (who was 1592 last yr).
To say Sekera isn't a big deal to lose is not factual. He was 5th in point share on the team (7.3) behind Klefbom, Draisaitl, McDavid and Talbot. That's a big person to lose.

Thats all nice but it doesn't convince me that the Oilers would be even one spot higher in the standings with Sekera in the lineup. I remember Ottawa with Karlsson, Alfredsson and others out of their line up a few years ago and they barely missed a beat with Paul MacLean coaching. I'm sure there are many other examples of teams missing their 3-4 defenceman. The problem here is either coaching or overall talent and I don't believe it is talent.

Ah. I never wanted him hired, and to this day believe he is a bad coach and a bad choice. Also the Flames haven't cycled through 14 coaches in 6 years. McLellan on the other hand, is proven to be a good coach, and again, is the 14th coach in 6 years. So quite obviously those situations are different. Some organizations have a history of holding their players accountable, and some well, do not.
