GDT: “I’ve got a bad feeling about this” - Han Solo (Louis Cypher). Oilers vs Canucks. 8 pm CBC SN.

[CanadasTeam99]

The panel cucks themselves for the Cucks

The Canucks have been pretty mediocre too. This goalie has saved their ass this year . Look how much shit they get away

Barely beat sj. We're down in Anaheim and won

 

[5 Mins 4 Ftg]

I never thought he was an idiot until he mismanaged his bench the last 5 minutes in game 7, even then I thought it was a one off. I’m started to suspect it wasn’t.

I’m OK with Coach KK. I just don’t like his disdain for physical hockey. As I’ve said in the fire KK thread, I think we have a serious team composition issue, and that our POHO seriously miscalculated this summer.

 

[CanadasTeam99]

More like the BORE nations Cup

No idea when it is. Zero interest in watching

Olympics is a different story

 

[Bryanbryoil]

He’s lost the killer instinct this year . It’s so weird. The speed is one thing. But he’s just so perimeter compared to previous years

He cut to the front of the net on our first goal. IMO it seems like he doesn't have the same stickhandling that he has in the past.

 

[FlameChampion]

I’m not sure it’s a left-wing problem. McDavid hasn’t been right all season.

He hasn’t looked right for 2 years. Least he put up points last year but he wasn’t much of a threat because he wouldn’t shoot.

I don’t know what to make of him this year. Wish he would just heal up if he’s hurt. Starting to lose confidence in him though. Might just be a bad year this year.

 

[Drivesaitl]

I still don't understand how we never managed to get a single stop on tipped shots. It's remarkable.

We're like pornstars at a gangbang - every single tip gets a hole.

I know its only 2Ga so far but Skinner has been shaky on others. A shot that barely hit his shoulder instead of going in. A sifting shot from point that hits crossbar. Consdiering Nucks only have 14 SOG thats not such a great batting average in net there casey.

Broadcast as usual calling any shot at logo a great stop. Its like Skinner pays the media.

It's pretty much just an Olympics tune-up event. A pre season kind of.

 

[Ibanez]

RNH has been terrible this year and Skinner just seems lost out there no matter who is centre is. But McDavid is uncharacteristically not McDavid this year for whatever reason.

There are like 3 players having decent years so far. That’s not a good recipe

Our 3rd line doesn’t do anything well. Henrique is floating. Connor brown handles the puck like a toddler learning to skate and RNH is probably mentally brushing his horses all game. His mind is a million miles away.

New fun drinking game. Every time rnh dumps the puck instead of trying to gain the zone with some speed or skill, take a drink. You’ll be drunk by the end of the period

He looks like a non physical tj Miller tier. That's a shit level for Connor lol. Doesn't look like anything special

 

[5 Mins 4 Ftg]

Just go out and win this period now Oilers. That’s all we ask.

 

[iCanada]

It’s been like that for a decade I swear.

Remember smith in the wpg playoff series? It was tipped point shot one after another…

Almost as long as we've had Schwartz-y on the payroll.

A coincidence I'm sure.

 

[Ibanez]

For sure. But the question is why? No indication of injury. To me it’s a mental thing

Hopefully he has a sports shrink. I’m serious. His head is off. And so is everything else

 

[FlameChampion]

Anyone else not confident that we lock this down in the third? Lol

 

[CanadasTeam99]

I also agree with that one poster about tips . Goalies usually get lucky at least. Feels like they just find their way in our net.

I mean, he won the Conn Smythe last year on the losing team.

Anyways, how is it that Soucy has gone this long without getting his head caved in. The guy is Kevin Bieksa if Kevin Bieksa couldn't fight or play hockey. Jfc.

 

[Behind Enemy Lines]

Panel calling 29 year old Lankinen 'the young goalie' was a bit weird.

I hope all broadcasters can stop egging on Debrusk to talk about his kid. I get the proud Dad thing but every time Michaels or anyone mentions it, it lead Sr. down the rabbit hole to talk about Jr. instead of the team he's paid to provide analysis.

He gets hooked multiple times every game without getting favorable calls. Maybe it's putting a strain on his body. He probably has multiple nagging injuries that add up.

 

[CanadasTeam99]

I would be shocked if anybody was confident lol. I predict a pk goal given up. We will be down in pps again.

The last time that Nuge wasn't a dump and chase guy was the year that McLellan called him out and asked him to push the play more.

Yeah Ekholm, Draisaitl and Kulak have been good.

Podkolzin and Perry have been fine for what we pay them.

Everyone else pretty much a turd.

Connor Brown is a scoring disaster. For the chances this guy gets its amazing he has only 1G. He has always seems to be just pushing the puck at net, even on a breakaway.

"Oh Connor Brown in wide open for a scoring chance" <time to take a bathroom break because nothings happening. >

130 games as an Oiler, 6goals. jfc

 

[JeffSkinner53]

That reminds me, where is @tardigrade81 ?

Think I saw him stretching in the oilers tunnel

Zero confidence. Anyone that do a is huffing glue

Speaking of glue. Can we take Derek Ryan out back. Guy sucks

 

[Bryanbryoil]

This is likely true as well. They let other teams get away with clutching, grabbing and hooking him in the neutral zone. That said I feel like he has some kind of a nagging injury or illness.

Guy should not be a regular on this team.
