4) Heartache
As far as pissing away a good effort goes, this is a masterclass by the Oilers.

the edmonton oilers, who haven't won a game since dec. 18 and have lost their last 12 games with dave tippett on the bench, just blew a 3-1 third period lead to the ottawa senators. the oilers were 12-0-1 this year when leading after two. ottawa wins 6-4.

5) Coaching
12 losses in 14 games with a generational MVP and a superstar MVP at your disposal. 12 losses in a row with the head coach behind the bench. I think just about any rational front office would make this Dave Tippett's last game in Edmonton.

In their next 10 games the Oilers will face the Panthers twice, Lightning, Predators, Capitals and the Hurricanes.
