GDT: Feb 27: Oilers versus Bruins @ 6:30 pm local time

All Star goalie...lol.

The rest of the goalies in the pacific are worse, you know that right.

 

[walktheboulavard]

Stop it Cassie. McDavid is not motivated by anything Mathew has done

 

[Mcnofool6110]

Not poor luck. Skinner was way too casual about it and got burned by Zacha's fantastic hard work. Gotta be smarter and more aggressive.

Eh, agree to disagree. I think it's a lot of Zacha's hard work, and a bit of unlucky wedging by Skinner's stick.

We're playing well against the best in the league, but not good enough. Need more defence.

 

[TopShelfGloveSide]

We won’t. There will be no PPs for us in the third and Boston will lock it down.

Okay.

 

[CycloneSweep]

Holland, please get McDavid help

 

[Zguy370]

Yup, Boston's backup is better than either of our goalies.

You mean Boston's backup in the ECHL?

 

[Connor McConnor]

It's funny how fans think Woodcroft is the problem. Please tell me a structure you'd play with this roster. It's Owner > GM > Location > Coach when it comes problems. Ceci is playing as a 2 and Barrie is playing heavy minutes in a top 4 role. Broberg looks like a potential stud and Bouchard is good in a specific role. Kulak, Barrie and Ceci should not make up 3/4 top 4D.

Connor McGrumpy

As he should be. He's dragging this team on his back and they're kicking him in the nuts.

 

[BlackDogg]

Goalie never helps steal a game or even take an even game

 

[KeithIsActuallyBad]

Holland, please get McDavid help

He could retire. That would help.

 

[gordonhught]

Holland, please get McDavid help

Too bad there is no feasible RH d available. A real weak spot.

 

[Broberg Speed]

I'm happy with the effort, but our goaltending is just incapable of helping out. Expect us to keep the fight but lose by a goal after another superlative p erformance by mcd

I don't think the goaltending has been atrocious. We need a stronger presence down the center of the ice defensively. Check out all three goals against during the intermission and check out the positioning off our centers. It's horrible.

 

[Ibanez]

Holland, please get McDavid help

 

[TGOSnipes99]

If this team is serious about making noise in the playoffs they have to get a reliable tender. Without one the other proposed additions won’t matter much. And I doubt they are seriously looking for one.

It will be like last year

'We gotta get Campbell goin"

 

[Kerberos]

Stop it Cassie. McDavid is not motivated by anything Mathew has done

Just a ridiculous notion. Matthews is about 500 tiers behind McDavid as a player and it's a stretch to claim he does anything better at this point.

2nd best goalie on the ice every night

 

[CantHaveTkachev]

Thatcher Demko sucks

do not want

 

[Stoneman89]

Lol, Maybe.

You figure you'd try a little harder to live up to it, more like it. 2 Absolute garbage goals against tonight.

 

[Drivesaitl]

Disgusting goal to give up after getting back into this game. Absolutely killer tendency to give up end of period or start of period goals. Absolutely backbreaker against a team that doesn't make those mistakes. CANNOT beat yourself against elite teams or any team in this league. Oilers do it too often.

Skinner has gifted the Bruins two goals. The goalpost was just a minute before as well. Beat him clean. I fear its going to get worse as expectations increase on Skinner because he's starting to get rattled at times. He's bad in sequences, something I'm noting.

 

[MessierII]

Stu had to dive on that one

 

[5 Mins 4 Ftg]

Stop me if you’ve heard this before.

The Oilers need 2 top 4 D and a goaltender.

 

[KeithIsActuallyBad]

Stop me if you’ve heard this before.

The Oilers need 2 top 4 D and a goaltender.

Didn’t realize I had traveled back to 2019.

 

[gordonhught]

Stop me if you’ve heard this before.

The Oilers need 2 top 4 D and a goaltender.

Two top 4 d may help the goaltending.

 

[Delicious Pancakes]

Connor clearly pissed and not interested in talking stats with Gene in that interview.

Well the team's gotta play better defence, including Connor, for McDavid to have a happier demeanor. Go out and shut the Bruins down in the 3rd. Oh and McDavid get a hatty for the GWG.
