Rangers assistant coach doesn't hold the Oilers in high regard

Even at their best, the Edmonton Oilers don't get any respect. 

New York Rangers assistant coach Ulf Samuelsson didn't mince words in conversation with SNY, shaming both his team and the opposition during the second intermission of Sunday's loss. 

Hopefully that is a low point for us. We are leaving it to the leadership to rally the troops, we are not competing at a level that we need to, it is not about Xs and Os. We are getting crushed by Edmonton in our building and that is embarrassing.

Samuelsson, one of the dirtier players of his time, should probably steer away from the cheap shots and focus his attention on rectifying a defensive unit that allowed 113 attempts at goal in a pair of losses this weekend.
