Edmonton Oilers Face Early-Season Struggles After Three Consecutive Losses

Despite high expectations, the Oilers have been outscored 15-3 in their first three games, raising concerns about team cohesion and performance.

The Oilers, led by stars Leon Draisaitl and Connor McDavid, have managed only two even-strength goals and one power-play goal in three games.
Coach Kris Knoblauch acknowledges the team's frustration but believes the situation is not as dire as last season's start.
Significant roster changes, including the loss of key penalty killers Ryan McLeod and Warren Foegele, have impacted the team's defensive capabilities.
The Oilers are currently the NHL's oldest team, which may be affecting their speed and adaptability on the ice.
Captain Connor McDavid remains optimistic, emphasizing the team's resilience and determination to overcome the early setbacks.
