Losing Badly

from Robert Tychkowski of the Edmonton Sun,
The litany of losses that make their fans want to gag are plenty - like Thursday’s 4-2 loss in Ottawa, getting shut out at home by Columbus or losing 8-3 to Detroit, 10-2 to Buffalo and 9-2 to Chicago.
“It seems like when we lose, we lose 5-1, 5-0 - everything goes wrong,” said Ales Hemsky.
“We stop playing. I don’t know, it’s hard to explain. We get down and we have no answer.”
Very rarely have the Oilers been able to reverse the flow of momentum. Even when they have 59 minutes and 48 seconds to do it, like in Ottawa.
