Yeah, and they promoted Nabakov to goalie coach, Ricci to asst and their like 20+ year serving AHL HC to the other asst gig. Very interesting stuff. Wouldn’t be surprised if it actually works, honestly.
Evgeni Nabokov is an interesting pick as a goalie coach. I wouldn't think his style would translate to coaching.
Bogosian is a walking injury. He'd probably be out 6-8 weeks from a big sneeze.
Schmiddy's trend line..looks bad

**** Tippett for not pulling Smith earlier . We would have won this game if it weren’t for his loyalty to his old pal
This one is on Tippett, he controls the goalies, not pulling Smith is almost criminal.
I just don’t understand why Smith wasn’t pulled. Coach needs to answer for that.
i've never seen a goalie give up so many back breaking momentum killing goals
Smith taking no responsibility in the post-game interview
They are less than impressed. (or should it be fewer than impressed?)Mike Smith is .838 over his last four games. Last night's Oilers postgame thread made for a fun read.
Kessel has played objectively worse than Duclair ever did yet nobody seems to mind. Funny how much reputation can help or hurt a player.
I don't blame him. He got the opposite treatment from Kessel.Well, they say Duclair wanted out. If it hadn't been for that it would have been very different IMHO.
I'm certainly not going to argue Kessel is playing well but your hard on for him might not be healthy.Kessel has played objectively worse than Duclair ever did yet nobody seems to mind. Funny how much reputation can help or hurt a player.
Good job Duclair. Like seeing him doing well.
I'm not sure how you can say "nobody seems to mind"... Kessel gets a LOT of stick on here for his poor play (justifiably imo)Kessel has played objectively worse than Duclair ever did yet nobody seems to mind. Funny how much reputation can help or hurt a player.
