Pre-Game Talk: Detroit @ edmonton 2pm

[McTedi]

I have complete faith that putting 4 and 83 back together will save this game. Great coaching, that.

Gotta do something...the pairings are part of the problem.

 

[booyakasha]

Hell maybe all the rumours of Drai and Nurse fighting which caused Drai to be injured and out were true. Based on the way this team plays it sure looks like something is wrong. I mean the terrible coaching doesn’t help though.

also the rumours about Drai's contract situation, him believing he was closer to McDavid and the money became a "point of contention" as one pundit put it, might have put a split in the room.
This isn't a "team", not what I have seen this year.

 

[Oilfan2]

In relation to Mrazek this game and most goalies this year he has to make more of those types of stops. Nuges chance was just as dangerous as the one Talbot let in.

Ahhh..no, not close.

Your hate for our goalie blinds you.

 

[ZJuice]

This team needs to have a full practice of shooting at an empty net.

Definitely. Shocking how many goals we could have if they pot even half of the chances

 

[48g90a138pts]

Finally the Oilers are doing some hitting

 

[Dashh]

is the top line getting reduced minutes or what? keep seeing kassian lol

 

[McDrai]

I had hope they would turn this season around but this game ended any of that.

Sadly nothing can be done to fix it until the Summer.

The 1 year playoff run was magical.......totally worth 10 years of being ****........now excuse me while I go bury my head in the snow.

We're Colorado Avalanche 2.0

 

[Del Preston]

All four games today are East-West. I'll play it safe and say the Oilers are the only West team who loses.

Wait, what is this shit? I thought Nurse, McDavid and Drai were BFF's.

 

[callighenfan]

I'm putting together a Kickstarter to buy the coaching staff a Shooter Tutor. Who's in?

 

[BlackDogg]

Like a 5% chance of playoffs already. What a f***ing disaster all the way to the top line.

 

[GMofOilers]

What’s the point scoring when you have to get 4 every night?

 

[rickysusedsht]

Where is the team from friday night?im seriously starting to feel the season slipping away. Not sure whats going on behind closed doors but i think a players meeting needs to go down

 

[McFlyingV]

How many wide open 2 on 1's have the Red Wings given up? Just boggles my mind that anybody can blame Talbot for any of this. Team is a disaster in front of him, not to say that he has been good either.

He's not to be blamed for today's game, but he also hasn't played like a #1 goalie this year. He's had about 2 or 3 good games, 4 or 5 below average games, and a couple abysmal games.

 

[Del Preston]

Wait, what is this ****? I thought Nurse, McDavid and Drai were BFF's.

A bullshit Twitter "rumour". Not true at all.

Really going out on a limb there, Del

 

[MCDAVIDISH]

I know for a fact Drai and nurse have issues, it’s everywhere and I have a close friend whose seen some shit.

 

[Alowlyoilersfan]

Detroit have a shit ton of giveaways this season. they are fragile. just need to keep demolishing then

 

[McDNicks17]

We've been bamboozled.

 

[Jumptheshark]

If I owned one these for this board I would be rich

 

[Soliloquy of a Dogge]

A bull**** Twitter "rumour". Not true in the least.

Ah okay. Yeah, first time I had heard of it but seemed hard to believe.

 

[CupofOil]

Wait, what is this ****? I thought Nurse, McDavid and Drai were BFF's.

It's BS. Don't pay attention to any of that garbage gossip.

 

[Weitz]

Link for those rumours? Or where can I find them?

Just rumours I heard from a bunch of different people. I don’t know where they heard them.

 

[Joey Moss]

How do you not shake up the lines in a 3-0 game?

Get the blender out

 

[LemmyUlanov55]

This game has SO for Mrazek written all over.

 

[King1s]

A bull**** Twitter "rumour". Not true at all.

Who tweeted it? Link?

 

[Mav3rick07]

Don't worry Mrazek, these idiots have no finish.
