Post-Game Talk: From the jaws of defeat…

[MoontoScott]

OT is so exciting.

I wish that the 3 on 3 could be incorporated into the 3 periods. Maybe 5 minutes for each period. I know the purists will object but wow I enjoy those OT sessions.

I get so bored watching those four man boxes in front of the goaltenders. Seeing skill is more fun.

Shout out to @Mr Kot who is 1-0 in GDT’s this season!

Yeah they were hungover but we got 2 points so let’s enjoy it.

Love to see McDavid make Zadorov look like a pylon again. Don't get as many opportunities now since he ran away.

Who was that Bruin hopped on the ice and then hopped right off once he realized the Oilers had a 2 on 1?



Hilarious.

Ekholm is such a beast.

My friend ski races with his wife and when they met they were like "oh, what does your husband do?" And Mrs. Ekholm was like "he's involved in hockey."

Like no bragging. No ego. They were friends for 2 months before my friend knew that this blonde lady with an accent was married to Ekholm haha

They love Edmonton. They love winter. This guy has been the biggest beauty add to this team and city in a decade or more.

Good teams win Ugly too. That’s all I gotta say.

Execution was in the shitter. Stark contrast from the last 10 games.

But ultimately the base of this team is good enough to not competely shit this game away.

And in the end, our talent took the game. Cause our talent is undeniable.

TSN- "Is Matthews the hart favourite?"

 

[MessierII]

Draisaitl with 1 goal 3 assists guy is going nuts

 

[KeithIsActuallyBad]

Hahaha the Flames lost.

Heh, how much of that is because we have a cheat code line in OT?

 

[CantHaveTkachev]

boys didn't start well, terrible first
but they played a good 2nd and Boston was putting on a clinic in the 3rd until the final 5 minutes or so

big win!

 

[syz]

Execution was off but I don't think that was a terrible game after the 1st period. 2nd period was good, 3rd period the Bruins were just turtling.

 

[McDoused]

Heck of a comeback.

We need to get Jeff Skinner going. Dude can't be playing 8 minutes a night.

 

[TheNumber4]

2nd game in a row where the 8M+ goalie across the rink from us gives up the ugliest goal of the night.

 

[CanadasTeam99]

Lmao shames lose another OT game. Nice they got a point though

 

[Behind Enemy Lines]

Loitering

Oil hang around in a Bruin style, low event game. Draisaitl a goal and 3 assists to stay red hot. Oil keep keep the Bruins at 2 despite generous home hospitality (25 giveaways). Oil elites find a way with the Break in Case of Emergency Stack Line option. Nuge's hockey sense on display with no panic OT dish for a Viking hammer OT winner.

Find a way to win is the message. Lots of loitering but resilient effort to win a trench warfare game. Christmas turkey not served early after all.

Strudwick is right. Sit him down

Jettison him. He's a waste here for that money

 

[snipes]

Hahaha the Flames lost.

You love to see it

 

[JeffSkinner53]

Hahaha the Flames lost.

 

[TB12]

Everyone keeps saying Drai had a goal and 3 assists???

My math ain't mathing on that one.

 

[KeithIsActuallyBad]

You love to see it

It's actually the best outcome because they still inch up the standings and get closer to snagging that coveted 9th place spot.

Arguably the best trade the Oilers ever made.

My cousin played against Ek Jr at timbits hockey.

My uncle mentioned how nice and humble Ek Sr is.

Makes me happy that he’s an Oiler!!

While the other dude or dudes yo there have like 10 EN points and he has 1

Was told we lie down and die when our goalie gives up the 1st goal due to sad fee fees. Great theory, except you know… we had the same goalie on way to a Game 7 last year and that’s happened lots and lots of times.
