The Hockey Writers Edmonton Oilers writing crew get together to discuss Mikko Koskinen's performance against the Calgary Flames and whether it changes anything for the future, Dave Tippett's lifeline and when Ken Holland might be forced to fire him, realistic goaltender trade targets before the deadline, whether Tyson Barrie is expendable and if there is a market out there for him and more. They then finish the show with another edition of "Plus-1/Minus-1" where they call out a positive or negative performance that caught their eye during the last week of action.
