GDT: Game 18: Edmonton Oilers @ Los Angeles Kings 11/17/16 - FSW, 790KABC

[Holden Caulfield]

Holy crap Clifford was pathetic on d-zone coverage on the 2nd oiler goal.

 

[kingsboy11]

I really hate this team sometimes. They play with my emotions too much

 

[KingsOfCali25]

Off work and we are winning...nice!

 

[kingsholygrail]

I love Dowd.

 

[HookKing]

A perfect shot is unstoppable. First goal was the definition of "stoppable". That 2nd goal by the Oilers is much closer to a perfect shot because it's practically bar down.

Ugh no. No shot is unstoppable.

 

[kingsholygrail]

Carter...Shoulda just shot it

 

[TheBannermen]

Ugh no. No shot is unstoppable.

A shot is "perfect" because it goes in. That's just basic logic. Ever heard someone call a save a perfect shot?

Anyway, I'm not trying to get into a pi**ing contest with you. Agree to disagree.

 

[Legionnaire]

I like McDavid and I'm excited to have him in the league, but the more I see him he is just Mike Modano and that says a lot about the state of the league.

 

[PJ Kings Hockey]

I'm, er, in Dallas watching the Stars for 3 games *runsaway*

You get around!

 

[KingPuckChoo]

i don't say this too often, but Edmonton is still terrible

even if they win this game, they are terrible

A shot is perfect when it is perfectly placed. Whether it goes in or not is up to the skill of the goalie. Agree to disagree.

 

[KingPuckChoo]

i don't say this too often, but Edmonton's goaltending is garbage

and that's coming from a team that has Budaj in net

and even if they win this same, their goaltending is still garbage

I'm actually just more annoyed that he's looking at the refs every time he gets dumped.

Don Cherry was exactly right. We ended up with boring, cheap, European hockey and most nights it sucks.

You guys should check out the Oilers game thread right now, it's hilarious.

McDavid is way quicker than Modano ever was.

 

[kingsfan28]

Nolan hasn't fought in such a long time, he's forgotten how to throw a punch

 

[Little Psycho]

"King couldn't get there in time" what else is new, Bob!

 

[ScoreZeGoals]

Refs have been giving him calls, he's come to expect them

 

[kingsholygrail]

Nice to see Lucic still gets winded on every play.

if they're being brain washed by the oilers announcers I am guessing it is all about how LA is hooking, and slashing every oiler out there.

the announcers are very biased.

Example: When Martinez stick checked McDavind on the partial break. Was a great play, Martinez had the blade of his stick on the ice for Christ sake, but the oilers announcers claimed it was a hook. McDavid didn't even look pissed about it but they claimed he looked to the refs.

I saw that too.

 

[theMajor]

Nolan hasn't fought in such a long time, he's forgotten how to throw a punch

remember when he and King could fight and contribute on offense regularly? those were the days lol

 

[Legionnaire]

McDavid is way quicker than Modano ever was.

I do not agree with that. Skate technology has continued to improve and that is likely the only difference if there is any.

You hit the nail on the head. They're also talking about basketball more than the game.
