Can anyone even remember the last time nuge has actually looked dangerous?
Nope. When is the last time you seen him just take the puck and hold it for a while? Drive to the net or make a nice play that he started?

Guy does jack shit. His last play he gingerly skates intot he middle of the ice after crossing the blue line and takes a pu*** shot off a dman that goes into the crowd and he was the first Oiler in the zone

This guy never WANTS that puck. He sickens me this year

You won't win a cup with guys like him/Skinner or are too afraid to get dirty

They are essentially going to be below 0.500 after tonight with this dogshit effort. We have a right to be mad at everyone involved, from Jackson/Bowman to Ryan.
Good thing is its only one period. I expect the Oilers to wake up at some point but Pickard looking mighty shaky tonight. Gonna be a dogfight. Thing is the Oilers haven't distinguished themselves and we're 22 games in and still waiting for a team to show up.

Get some shots and score some goals. No more passing 2 on 1

Or in the neutral zone.

Sometimes the best thing for this team would be to just stop passing. When they’re in that mode they don’t skate and we get the trash we saw in that period. Lazy BS.

beauty no look pass to McD. Beauty backhand snipe for a goal.

He’s been bad this year, but we don’t have to make up stuff. He’s made plays this year.

Especially considering he was the one being stripped. It was an obvious back door play and he doesn't take a stride at all to catch up. Which he could.

Exactly. That should have you taking the open guy for sure. I just don't get it.
Then on the second goal he has zero puck support as the center. He is floating in the high slot like a winger.

Hate utahs commentary just as much as I hate arizonas. At least this building has fans in it

No beer in the city though

Why is Nuge up there? Nuge has been playing worse than most of the players on our team so far this year. Demote Nuge and put Skinner up there with McDavid and Kapanen
He even looks uninspired in the WEM add. Should take some acting advice from Stewed Skinner. I'm joking, kinda

All I get from Nuge anytime I look at him now is he misses his horsey. This is the saddest looking guy around that makes 5.5M.

I don't know, that might be like trying to put out a fire with gasoline. Skinner isn't a good 2way player. Nuge, although putrid atm, is.
