GDT: Game #33: Sharks @ Oilers - 2 PM - Sportsnet

[BlackDogg]

If the OIlers score 7, they can still win this

 

[BertMcDrai]

Time for a shorty to get us back on track.

 

[TheNumber4]

Time for the Oilers to give up I guess. Bad goal given up. Emotionally shattered now.

 

[Missing smitty]

Looks like the new D pairs are stellar as well. Then we got SKinjob lite in net

They didn't actually change them up. Ekholm is playing with Bouchard...

 

[CanadasTeam99]

That last goal was infuriating. Drai is being hooked leaving thw zone and that piece of human trash Skillitier and his other crony ignore it, then call EDm on a call the same play, but Shitcard lets in an easy one on top

 

[jesusbuiltmyhotrod]

Why is this team so bad early in games? Goaltending is an issue

 

[CanadasTeam99]

This is what we were afraid of though. Play 5 of the better teams and then play down to a crappy team right off the bat (Boston game wasn't good though)

 

[BlackDogg]

13 seconds left and go offside on the longshot to bring the faceoff back in

 

[Sethual]

Did our defense defend on those goals? I saw the Hyman goal then heard us get scored on as I took a toke, like wtf Oilers lol

 

[Tobias Kahun]

that faceoff shouldnt be in the oilers zone

 

[CanadasTeam99]

Another game where Edmonton will have to win inspite of their goaltending

We know they can do it. Just have to see how low Pickard can go. As long as he is better than Skinners low, we could win this game

13 seconds left and go offside on the longshot to bring the faceoff back in

Arvidson and Henrique have been really disappointing so far

 

[dssource]

Very good pk, which usually gets this team going. Let's see.

 

[Mr Positive]

I wonder what options there are for a goalie. I'd assume it has to be a buy low option

 

[BlackDogg]

that faceoff shouldnt be in the oilers zone

You would think it would be just before the opposing blue line

 

[Missing smitty]

The D man's play there isnt to go into the corner taking himself and bouchard both out of the play.

It was a dumb play by Kulak.

It wouldn't have been the wrong play if the centre was doing job. High slot is the centre's defensive position. Skinner played that horribly.

 

[Gnome17]

Holy f*** theyre sloppy tonight

 

[jesusbuiltmyhotrod]

Drai what are u doing

 

[KeithIsActuallyBad]

Good thing they Oilersed that odd man rush.

 

[Dirk Dangler]

Leon was fantastic that shift. Didn’t needlessly turn it over with clean possession multiple times in advance.

Nope. Oilers were playing perfect hockey before that went in. Absolutely nothing that could have been done differently.

If you’re going to blame an open point shot on the players not playing 100% perfect earlier in the shift in a different zone maybe we should just pull the goalie and play with 6. Completely ridiculous take.

 

[CanadasTeam99]

What a clownshow sequence started by Drai

Nothing going right lol

Season is ebbs and flows. They can't let the defensive game sink too low now. Can't stay at the top forever. Atrocious this period.

SOmetimes you have to just Canuck it up and start playing some low event hockey and calm it down

 

[Zaar]

Woo ... we got lucky there.

 

[GhostfaceWu]

i see terrible leon showed up today

 

[Oilslick941611]

It wouldn't have been the wrong play if the centre was doing job. High slot is the centre's defensive position. Skinner played that horribly.

is skinner playing centre?

 

[Mr Positive]

Drai what are u doing

He's having one of his "just have fun out there" games. I don't mind it. He can still put up points and he saves his stamina
