GDT: 1/11/25 6pm Oilers @ Hawks CHSN

Wait a minute...

Reichel played 4th line ..only 7+ minutes..surexa non-facror..but the tine and the opportunity was limited for hom...
Sure he hot no shots on goal or points..

But Bedard was worse...had 3 tines more ice-tine and top line duty=supposed to produce offense at yet also had Zero points ts and zero shots on goal...at least Reichel was Even at 5x5 ..
BEDARD and his line ...all zero points and -2 each

So Bedard a big Non-factor offensively and a negative factor defensively..and you call Reichel worse?

Also Nazar onl ine 2 a non factor with Zero shots on goal and no points but at least hecwas Even in 5x5..

Dach also was Even but no shotsvon goal or points.
So a non-productive night for ALL of the yute forwards ..but Bedard the worst of the 4 as that -2 with zero offense to offset that stood out...otherwise he would merely have been invisible .
Still gotta give Seth Jones tgexworst pkayer award...on for 3/4 EDM goals against the Hawks...2 at 5x5 and 1 on the pk=big Fail as he too had no points or shots on goal to mitigate the defending nightmare he so usually brings...as he did tonight.

So if All the yutes non-factors and it falls on the vet forwardsxto take up the slack...tonight the 3rd line vets did that but the top 2 line vets Failed to do anything positive.

Bottom line..Team blew 3-2 lead..got outplayed in last 39 minutes..except for the 6 x4 last minute "push" opportunity which they failed to convert on..

A typical cannot hold lead Tank Game by the Hawks..

Cue the "tired and fadex" excusecas game wore on due to Hawks playing last night ..RIght?

Bedard must be tired..so gets a mulligan..right?

But shouldn't the yutes have the energy and the vets be the tired ones?
Maybe alk were tired..but only loser teams blow 3-1 leads o home ice and fail over lsdt 2 periods..
 
Another poor effort by Seth Jones. Not that likely would have made a difference, but with time 4.2 seconds left, Jones had puck at centre and must have thought time had run up only for something to click that indeed there was still time for shot on goal. What was he thinking?
And Taylor Hall plays like a guy that used to be good.
So done with both of these 2 guys.
 
Welp, another epic collapse just re-enforced everything wrong with this roster that hasn't been said already.
That 1OA can't get here soon enough. And Seth only has 5 more seasons at 9.5M, just because ain't noone taking on that contract even if we take on money & send a prospect.
 
Schaefer
Levshunov
Korchinski
Vlasic
Rinzel
Allan
EDM
Crevier
Kaiser
Etc…

We might potentially end up with the greatest collection of 23 and under defenseman in the history of mankind.

Then we’ll sign Marner and draft McKenna in ‘26 and guys like Dach, Nazar, Boisvert, Moore, Vanacker, etc. will all start making a serious impact. Bedard will become an elite MVP caliber 1C by the time he turns 21.

Add it all together and you’re looking at the next great Dynasty in all of pro sports. 14 Cups in 19 years. Including 3 3-peats, 2 repeats, and one pete.
