The Ducks are a train wreck all over the ice.

Edmonton has more wins than Anaheim. That never stops being funny.

But, but, but.......they turned the corner!!!1!!11!!

Ducks are horrible this year. The GM made moves to make moves. That didnt work. Thier defense sucks.
And tonight Getzlaugh decides to get into a fight down 3-0 when he should be trying to lead a comeback.
Not the kind of leadership you want.
They will miss the playoffs.
 
There are currently FIVE Oiler threads on the front page of the main board. I dread what that place will look like when that team is actually good again
 
Funniest part of the Ducks game was Ahlers saying something like "The Canes are just content to clear the zone" literally as Staal is sprung on a breakaway.
 
McLellan is settling them down, gonna be a monster of a team imo. Just wait till they get McDavid back too, Draisaitl is already an absolute force...they have the pieces to trade for a great d-man, just waiting to pull the trigger...
 
Ducks are just "unlucky", guys. They keep "turning the corner" so much that they're right back to were they started..getting blown out and embarrassed by bad teams. :laugh:

Love seeing all those empty seats too. It's charming.

Oh their fans will come out of the woodworks and start talking smack like there's no tomorrow. Just like Flame's fans. It's coming.
 
Draisaitl has stood out above every Oiler (with the exception of McDavid) since the preseason, made no sense to me when they sent him down, and he's proving how dumb the Oilers were to demote him at the start of the season.

Flames fans - "Best defense in the NHL"
Oilers fans - "Best offense in the NHL"

Welp, Flames fans looked like fools this year. Hope the Oilers follow suit just for ***** and giggles. :laugh:

Oilers will be good, but 'force' is a stretch still. Desperately need defense and goaltending. Talbot may be sufficient enough with competent defense in front of him, but that remains to be seen. Oilers won't be able to just outscore their issues on the daily.

I'm not sold yet. Drai/Hall/McDavid are studs though.
 
What the hell is wrong with Getzlaf. 1 single Goal so far this season.

WTH
and an empty net goal as well, I believe.

He has always been an excellent passer but dude lacks so many other things (scoring ability, clutch, leadership, defense so so ) that I never understood why he was so highly rated.

Because he is a top notch passer, he is able to rack up a lot of points (with a great finisher like Perry) but he's horribly overrated.
 
If you would've said that in mid December, New Jersey would not only have more points than Tampa Bay, but also more goals, I would've called you a dirty rotten liar.
