Player Discussion Fire Dustin Schwartz

[McAsuno]

2 goals on 3 shots with the first goal being the first shot on Pittsburgh’s Tristan Jarry. Schwartz ruining goalies with the same issues left and right here and there. What an incompetent shitbag lmao

Are there no other goalie coaches that spend the summer in Edmonton? Just Dusty it seems. I am so ready to can this guy and try someone new, nobody gets better under this guy, goaltending is always a problem yet the goaltending coach remains year after year.

How about some accountability?

It makes absolutely zero sense unless he was some nepo hire. Zero sense. They turfed pretty much everybody for 10 years yet this rat mooch stays here. I was smiling so much when he got booed at the opener lolll

If anything, Jackson and Bowman realize that goaltending is critical (main thing holding us back) and Oilers mgmt haven’t handled this properly over the years.
Time to focus on this moving ahead:
. dedicate scouting member toward netminders .
. recognize the special development that tenders need (quality dedicated coaching and training/conditioning for example). It’s difficult to assess our goalie coaches in a detailed manner but it’s safe to say their overall body of work has been underwhelming. And our drafting of tenders has been a problem.
Until mgmt identifies and resources that priority, we’re likely to continue this unsuccessful trend indefinitely.

Hes just a terrible athlete ( for an NHL goalie). He really is. He is just so limited. And he always has been
Watching this game against T.O with TO on the pp. His lack of athleticism is funny.
Blaming it on Schwartz for Skinner being a bad goalie is just comical.
f***, Schwartz could be the only reason Skinners anywhere near the NHL.

Holy shit. Schwartz was bad tonight

 

[VeteranPresence]

I won’t mind if Connor chooses FA over having to not only outplay the refs and DOPS every night but also his own f***ing goalie and goalie coach. It’s truly that bad.

Holy shit. Schwartz was bad tonight

Dustin, please hit the unemployment line.

Apparently this is worthy of a trolling ban

 

[GrumpyKoala]

At this point I am unsure who making who look bad.

 

[KeithIsActuallyBad]

There’s no reason not to fire him. It’s a cheaper solution too. If the goaltending still sucks then at least this clown has no more input.

Maybe expectations are too high

Worth noting that -9.3 of that is from Skinner.

Second best goalie again. Fire him.

 

[OfCorsiDid]

How he's still here astounds me.

He should've been fired in 2018.

How he's still here astounds me.

He should've been fired in 2018.

How he has survived a decade of coaching and management changes is beyond me. The guy is made out of 100% pure weapons grade teflon.

Here is an interesting article about Oiler goaltending compared to the rest of the league. If you are a stats freak you'll enjoy it--some interesting observations about priorities.
