– Maybe it was the latter, says head coach Jay Woodcraft.

– Yes, answers assistant coach Dave Manson.

Viewers pursed their lips as they walked across the ice with heads hung after the final whistle.

The reliable, star-studded Edmonton Oilers are sinking deeper and deeper into the crisis.

Now there was a loss in a meeting of anxiety against the desperate and laughing San Jose Sharks in California.

With four straight losses and five points in twelve games, the sack threat is looming over Jay Woodcraft.

There is also just one win in their last nine games and Connor McDavid has not scored in their last seven games.

“We are all guilty”

The wind is harsh and cold in this hockey-mad town on the Alberta plains.

-I’m not worried about my job. I take care of the day-to-day operations and day-to-day process to give players something to focus on. I’m not happy with where we are, we’re all guilty of that. “We can get better and that’s what I’m focusing on,” says Jay Woodcraft.

The 47-year-old Canadian took over from Dave Tippett on February 10, 2022.

It was then clear that this loss was the worst and most devastating to date.

– Actually, I don’t know what to say. We’re not in sync now, it’s very disappointing. “We lack confidence,” says Leon Draisaitl.

The San Jose Sharks have now reeled off two straight wins, both at home against the Philadelphia Flyers and Edmonton Oilers, respectively.

Coaches walk off the ice.
