The Oilers have been struggling much more than anyone could have predicted so for this season. Their 1-5-1 record puts them just two points ahead of the league-worst 0-7-1 San Jose Sharks in the pacific division. In a reversal from the norm, the team is struggling to score goals with just 17 through 7 games. Defensively, the team has been a nightmare, particularly in goal as they have given up over four goals per game and both Skinner and Campbell are currently boasting terrible statistics.
