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

[unicornBLOOD]

and the no call on Hyman's breakaway, clear stick in his hands on a scoring chance, the refs absolutely stink at their jobs.

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

"Connor, where's the remote?
"It's in the cushions, DIG THE f*** IN."

 

[Sanchez]

Nice interview with Philp.

 

[North]

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

If he gets 8 mill it better be from another team.

Caggiula is better than Lavoie.

Caggiula can keep up with the play. Unfortunately Lavoie’s skating will continue to hold him back.

Best keep that random thought to yourself lol and focus on players actually playing

Sign and trade but the deal falls through at the last minute.

outside of RNH, and a dumb, panic play by Kulak on the PK, I liked what I saw in the 1st. Keep it up boys.

PS - someone tell Nuge the season started over 3 weeks ago.

with all the alledged fire power we have--how are we the 3rd lowest scoring team

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

The only way Skinner was getting 8 is if he put together a Vezina-calibre season.

He hasn't so he won't. Right now his evaluation is probably right around 5-5.5 x8. This is even assuming he's able to return to the mean this year. It's less if he sticks around in the doldrums of sub-.905 SV%.

 

[Ibanez]

Don’t think I can watch tonight. Handing out candy. How do we look in general?

Doesn’t really matter what a spectator focuses on especially between periods haha

Or . Orrrrr

We could fire him into the sun!!!

We are making the Preds look very slow.

Refs making some homer calls to say the least

combination of lack of finish, lack of chemistry (new players), and puck luck. It's mind boggling how snake bit they've been so far.

Powerplay was ice cold.

Leon and Connor struggled through the first 5 games.

Hyman is cursed.

Nuge sucks.

For a while the only guys doing anything were the bottom 6 and Skinner, now they've dried up a bit too.

Right now? If Skinner does not turn things around, we will need to shop on the market for a goalie sooner than later

i put 2 bowls on the step and a sign that said take 3 and move on, watching the Oil, Happy Halloween!!!

I refuse to watch the game--I no longer like horror movies

You should yell from the door once they reach for the candy "Dig In! Right now!"

Making a player contract assessment under 25 games into a year is an exercise in futility. If you, oh I don't know, actually READ what I said you'd realize I was talking about where he's at with his current start, assuming he'd return to his career mean by the end of the season.

Just get another Pickard tier goalie. If skinner doesn’t work out it’s not like he’s making 5x5. I agree, don’t force it, get another option

I do not endorse unauthorized spaceflight.

Goalies, outside of about 5-ish, maybe up to 8, are so voodoo. Unless you have one of the studs, I'd rather roll the dice on guys in the 3 million range. There are plenty of guys out there that are Mrazek, Skinner, Vladar, Talbot, Korposalo, and so on. Skinner has to go back to back seasons of .915 plus to even think about giving him 5 million a year, let alone 8 million.

They are looking like a team for once
