Lol I didn’t watch a second of the game man.
I don’t think you’ll be able to sell me on a goalie who gave up 6 goals and had 29 saves played amazing though. Maybe he wasn’t the problem but it’s a tough look saying he was amazing.

It was 3-0 in the first and Gibson made 3+ unreal saves.
Through the next two, he got peppered but what seemed like a huge number of great chances. Anyone can talk allmthe crap they want about him tomprop up their own agenda, it’s what these kind of forums are for, but if we had an average goalie this season we’d have a handful of wins at best.
Don’t care about the popularity awards, so rage on, but he is definitely our best player, every night, hands down
They did just that in December. A blockbuster deal of Adam Cracknell for Steve Oleksy.

One of the more underwhelming franchises of the last decade considering how good they were. Only 1 cup 12 years ago, they could have been up there with the Pens and Hawks.

The irony in this post is despite the Ducks 10 game losing streak, those same Oilers are still a point behind them in the race...
Is it time?

Not sure where you’re getting this stuff from. I’ve said in this forum and the Vezina forum that he’s been great this year and a probably 3rd for me as of now in Vezina. Don’t think that constitutes raging against him.
This thread was started after last nights loss and then fans started chiming in that Gibson was amazing again last night despite the loss. I said that is crazy talk and no goalie can be considered amazing in a game where they had 29 saves and let in 6 goals.
You also said Gibson has led them to a ten game losing streak.
Gibson may not have had a great night but the loss wasn't his fault. Fans of both teams who actually watched the game have said as much.

It's that they're in their mid-30s and have both sustained fairly significant injuries. Very hard to get back to where you were at that age with that history. Plus I just don't like them, I have a lot of respect for Getzlaf but none for Perry and Kesler.

That’s fair, guess I just have some optimistic approach towards Perry. He’s been playing on a busted knee and still put up respectable points. It’s possible he comes back from the injury slightly better or just the same as he was before surgery, which is still about an additional 50ish points.

To be fair, I think Dracom has a point to some degree on Perry but it's more based on the dollar amount he's making in proportion to his production. For a player making $8+ million AAV, you'd expect more from him than just 50 points even at his age. I think it's a fair point to say that he hasn't earned his pay for the past 2 years.

Is Kesler looking good? His stats says he has 6 points in 42 games and is –16.

This is probably one of those times where you don't have to really ask that. I can't think of the last time a player "looked good", but had absolutely atrocious stats.

Not Carlyle's fault. Why did Gibson stop playing like prime Hasek? He needs to get it together.
