Post-Game Talk: Draisaitl is the only hockey player we have right now

We sincerely apologize for the extended downtime. Our hosting provider, XenForo Cloud, encountered a major issue with their backup system, which unfortunately resulted in the loss of some critical data from the past year.
What This Means for You:
- If you created an account after March 2024, it no longer exists. You will need to sign up again to access the forum.
- If you registered before March 2024 but changed your email, username, or password in the past year, those changes were lost. You’ll need to update your account details manually once you're logged in.
- Threads and posts created within the last year have been restored.
- Our 2025 light and dark themes were lost, so we are rebuilding them. Light theme is currently available, but work in progress
Our team is working with Xenforo Cloud to recover data using backups, sitemaps, and other available resources. We know this is frustrating, and we deeply regret the impact on our community. We are taking steps with Xenforo Cloud to ensure this never happens again. This is work in progress. Thank you for your patience and support as we work through this.
In the meantime, feel free to join our Discord Server
Look at his stats in comparison to last season. I think you forgot how pathetic he was last season. I didn't say he was good.
Again.. I didn't once say he was good. Despite the fact that he's more than twice as good as last season and he's still bad says a lot. Lol
No soup for you!
Don't worry. This isn't directed at you its frustration with something Brown. hehe
is mctonybrar (karman gill) losin his shit that Pikard out goalied Sorokin???
karman is having an existential crisis right about now

I just looked, it’s never been done where a player has scored 60 and no one else scores 50 in a year in nhl history
You might need to find one of those old Maytag commercials with Gordon Jump for the younger crew to understand what you’re talking about. I love the comparison though.
I'm just freaked out how many people know his real name.is mctonybrar (karman gill) losin his shit that Pikard out goalied Sorokin???

Should be Karma. whoops.
If this forward corps can't get their shit together, think you just nuke it and go with
Kane McDavid Hyman
Savoie Draisaitl Frederic
Henrique RNH Perry
Who Gives a Shit
Ek Bouchard
Walman Nurse
Kulak Emberson
Pickard
In the post season.
Honestly would consider bringing Derek Ryan back too. Or even Drake Caggiula.

Pickard is the kind of goalie that is not good in the big picture, but works his bag off. Unlike the other one, it’s pretty apparent he’s giving it his all despite the size/talent deficit. He battles, and that’s something teams will play for.
Every once in a while a pretty clear backup/non-NHL goalie gets randomly hot and goes on a run. Think the “Hamburglar” (I literally don’t remember his name), Michael Leighton, etc.
His colleague is a bum. Ride Pickard until he gives a reason not to play him. At best he catches a run, at worst we’re in the same place we are now, in the middle ground Skinner gets time off to get back to his baseline below average NHL level (giant improvement over what he’s doing now).

True.. but he's been obese ass down in the farm as well. Oil are stuck now with the shit we got.
Not sure why people are so bummed out especially on a back to back. We are starting to dominate again in fancy stats, just need to put it all together. Missing Ekholm too, arguably our best dman when healthy
Pickard isn’t the answer. And his stats are similar to Skinners but I still prefer watching Pickard because he’s not anxiety inducing like Skinner is.
But he has more or less done his job of a $1m backup.
Funny how whenever this team needs a big win they get it from their AHL goalie.
Definitely not the answer, just a better bet than the other one at the moment.
Pickard has the ability and wherewithal to battle and grind out results despite his limited ability. The other one parks his fat ass on the goal line and hopes it hits him.
Probably because the team is boring to watch because literally one forward can score goals on the team. Hopefully Frederic and Kane bring something.
He's more of the answer than Skinner is.
I'd put Savoie in for the playoffs at this rate too. These guys have had like 60 games to show any semblance of chemistry and they've shown f*** all. I honestly think we should consider bringing Derek Ryan back too. He's toast but half these forwards don't do shit anyway, at least he can PK.
I don't know that people are bummed out as much as just realizing how limited our offense is.
Without Drai 49 goals we'd be one of the worst scoring teams in the league. We have McD with his worst season since rookie season. Nuge worst season ever. Hyman severe fallback season and the rest of the forwards other than Perry getting flat out nothing.
Come playoffs we've got a sputtering 4 Cylinder output thats going to have to keep up with Top Fuel monsters. You can't have this many forwards incapable of potting. That dog won't hunt.
