Pre-Game Talk: Apparently Skinner is starting Game 2

[Cloned]

Listening to CHED sports in the morning, Morley Scott said he expects Skinner will start.

Schwartz and the rest of management/coaching involved with this call can GTFO if it’s true.

Woof, I also assume Morley knows next to nothing about anything Oilers related.

If the does start, that's bad call.

Gotta get Stu going

 

[Bryanbryoil]

If true and Skinner shits the bed we may well have just put the final nail in our cup aspirations this season all of 2 games into the playoffs. IF he does start, he better be on a choke chain not a f***ing leash.

 

[MikeS24]

Oh well. I had no hope going into these playoffs after what they did not do at the deadline. Consider victories a bonus.

Unfortunately I don't have faith in this management group to even upgrade the team in the summer. I can see them throwing two monster upgrade cuffing contracts to Sieve Skinner and Bouchard (overpay)

I actually don't even care that Skinner is starting. I just hope he gets pulled at a proper time and comatose knobgobbler has his finger on the pulse.

Pickard could sh** the bed too, but remember, EDM doesn't make changes unless they are absoltuely forced to (like SKinner screwing up tonight) and being down 2-0

The D better get their heads out of their a** too

Were winning the next 4 regardless of who's in net.

Let go!

Our entire organization is clueless if this is true.

 

[29Beast97Mode]

Well apparently the team doesn't take winning seriously. That's a joke.

 

[Canovin]

Stuart with the Mike Smith, allow me to redeem myself. But he's the anti-Mike Smith. Play him and he just costs the Oilers another game.

 

[Satoru Gojo]

I don’t think starting skinner is the coaches decision

 

[CantHaveTkachev]

is Kane playing? rumors is that he'll play

probably J. Skinner out

 

[29Beast97Mode]

 

[Canovin]

Makes sense. The Oilers are going to wear out the Kings physically. Terrible decision on starting Stuart again

Morley Scott doesn't know anything.

We'll know after the skate.

 

[Canovin]

The next question is is Josh Brown playing? lol

I don't consider Morley any kind of insider, but I would expect Skinner to start.

Apparently he has a decent record after letting in 5 lol

 

[North]

This management group didn’t even choose Skinner. Why are they so freaking tied to him??

 

[McDNicks17]

I guess we just have to hope he remembers how to play hockey in games 4/5/6/7 like last year.

 

[GMofOilers]

Nothing was decided yesterday, will have to wait for morning skate, can’t see Skinner starting, pretty sure Knob almost had Pickard game 1 starter as he mentioned using both guys.

 

[FlameChampion]

Hilarious lol if true

[94 Oil Drops]

I'm not thrilled about Skinner starting but a lot of you need to take a deep breath and relax. We've been in this situation before, 3 times now against LA in a playoff series. Let's see what happens tonight. Lots of hockey left.

 

[McHelpus]

Jeff Skinner was good on the top wing next to McDavid. Arvdisson is completely useless, I would have slotted Kane on RW and left Skinner in.

 

[MoontoScott]

Unless Pickard is banged up (which is possible given the secrecy around injuries) then I see no possible justification for starting S. Skinner.

What can you say? Organizations make decisions and they have to live with the consequences--good or bad.

Let's hope the boys play air tight defense tonight---they will probably need it.

 

[foshizzle]

Skinner comes into play 25 pounds heavier. Has a bad season. I wouldn’t blame 97 for not re-signing - you can’t have a guy playing goal who doesn’t take winning seriously
