Rhys Albrecht @rhysalbrecht.bsky.social · 02/10/2026The 79-80 Oilers saw 45 goals in the first 6 games of their season (23 for, 22 against. The 26-27 Oilers are at 27 after two games, and play the Kraken, Ducks, Sharks and Kings next. We could see a franchise record not just passed, but obliterated. 110

Rhys Albrecht @rhysalbrecht.bsky.social · 02/10/2026Okay so hear me out: a Canucks comeback win here would be so embarrassing it may be the only thing that forces the oilers to trade for a real goalie 3122
