GDT: Game #11: Oilers @ Preds - 6 PM - SNW

[Davo Ikinzom]

Honestly, better than I was expecting with Connor out.

Stepping up with no McD. I like it!

Laying waste to Nashville like I lay waste to little kids coming to my house for Halloween candy

lol just kidding. We’re giving out candy

 

[oilers4life5]

Let the conspiracy theory live on. That was a 100 percent penalty on the Hyman breakaway. They literally called the same call on Nuge. What a f***ing joke.

 

[Lay Z Boy GM]

Drai looks charged up, just seems like he’s quicker and got way more urgency out there

Keep it going, this could be good for the team having to figure it out without McJesus

 

[Shizuka]

Well I wasn't expecting much from this sad sack squad without McDavid but perhaps it will be a blessing in disguise. Forces these guys to up their work rate, support the puck better, and play more simply since they can't rely on him to create off the rush.

 

[JeffSkinner53]

Someone explain to me how Smith avoided the instigator, he straight up jumped Emberson.


Kinda bs.

Especially since they called Nuge on the weakest hook ever earlier in the period

 

[Mr Positive]

Let’s see if the preds get dirty this game. They’ll figure out they can get away with a lot if they haven’t already.

That's what bugs me more than not getting the PP. Our PP isn't that great atm anyway

When you don't call stuff, bad stuff happens.

When Nuge got that “hooking” call we were on the PP and it was just a battle along the boards. Hyman on a breakaway it’s worse imo.. they basically just saved the preds potentially

The work ethic has been pretty good since the first 3 games of the season. They just haven’t been able to score and when skinner is in net he has been trash. Pikard has been a rock so far.

There was also 100% trip by Arvy they didn't call

 

[Behind Enemy Lines]

Great road period and start. Line 1 is jumping. Unfortunate braindead Kulak high risk play winds up in their net. Perry has been solid this season. Big goal for the Line 4 Bakersfield boys.

 

[oilers4life5]

and that's not an instigator or an interference penalty on Smith? why not?

Because this league is rigged. It’s the only explanation anymore for this incompetence of reffing.

 

[I am the Liquor]

Kulak playing like he is on bath salts

 

[oilers4life5]

There was also 100% trip by Arvy they didn't call

And three other trips by Nash not called. I just want consistency. If that’s a penalty on Nuge, which I agree with then that’s a penalty on the Hyman breakaway.

 

[VainGretzky]

Still pisses me off they kept Ryan over Lavoie

 

[JeffSkinner53]

No Halloween costume Gazdic? Lame

 

[TopShelfGloveSide]

Can't really expect much better for the cap hits

Lots of goalies above 872

 

[Lay Z Boy GM]

No Halloween costume Gazdic? Lame

Gazdic could have nailed a Frankenstein or Wolfman costume

Kinda bs.

Plus he clearly interfered with him prior to the fight

 

[Mr Positive]

Gazdic could have nailed a Frankenstein or Wolfman costume

I'm waiting for Stauffer to stop wearing his caveman costume (I kid)

 

[kevy9999]

This is a f***ing scary game how fitting for it to be on Halloween lo

Honestly, better than I was expecting with Connor out.

If they can't keep their heads above water for 10 games without McDavid then they don't deserve to be anywhere near playoffs. It's a team game. McDavid was not doing much this year . It's now about proving you're a good team without McDavid. Lots of teams actually step up and play good with their top player missing short term. our team has lots to give yet. Let's see if they're up for the task.

 

[Davo Ikinzom]

Still pisses me off they kept Ryan over Lavoie

Caggiula is better than Lavoie.

 

[McOilers97]

Pickard isnt hoping for a 8Mx8 extension. Skinner is.

If Skinner gets $8m, the cap had better be $150m.

 

[JeffSkinner53]

Get Auston Matthews off my screen

 

[Lay Z Boy GM]

Just a random thought but mcdavid must be watching this at home, maybe in a costume. I bet it’s painful for him to watch his team play without him but man wouldn’t it be cool to watch a game with McJesus lol i bet he goes nuts watching them
