Game #40: Oilers @ Pens - 5 PM

Most likely another LA 1st round matchup unless Vegas really tanks. They should be the NYI tonight.
 
I agree with a lot that you say, but your assessment and hate of Bouchard makes no sense to me.
This guy ever have good takes? Think I just seen him on every other page this game defending the honor of the Oilers when they really just shat the bed. Ignored.

Ok bud. Whatever you say lol
 
Funny seems ever average goalie we play seems to Make those exact same Skinner can't.

Go figure. Guess maybe not as hard as Skinner makes it seem
Was crystal clear yet again the other teams goalie was far far better than ours. Would have Nedjelkovic over Skinner any day of the week. Its the thing that theres around 20 goalies around the league that in back up roles that could probably be better options. Nedj made easily a dozen stops tonight that Skinner just can't make.
 
Bouchard has to be the luckiest dude alive to get free shxx handed to him on a silver platter only to consistently fxxx it up. His consistency in missing the puck when passing or walking the line is generational and his stupidity in his own zone is exceptional.

Who plays on the better defensive team....
You can't look at that apparently..... Like how people shat on Blackwood (who tore Skinners #'s to SHREDS on Sj) lollll. On the Sharks! ANd only getting better

Dude is only like 20 points higher than league average while Shhhhkkkkkina is a couple points below

That being said, IF Skinner can continue this pace or close to it, I can't complain I guess
 
In the first, every time Stu made a good save we gave position back to the Pens. 4 goals on hdsc in the slot
 
As bad as Skinner has been this season, by the stats he's still better than Nedeljkovic. Keep yelling at them clouds.
Sorry but this is silly. Look what the goalies face vs what their respective teams give up. What Skinner faced in the first period is PAR for what the Pens give up any night of the season. The perspective that the Oilers are so airtight typcially and maybe the best Defensive team in league needs to be there in the evaluation. Just look at the goalies. Who do you think is better?

I just judge goalies this way

Flip 2 goalies. Say Ned in EDM and SKinner in PITTS. SKinner in SJ, Blackwood in EDM. etc

Who looks better out of them this year?
 
Crazy! Boston was our best complete game of the season followed by a AHL effort in tonite first
 
Lol, yeah, the defensive powerhouses of the Detroit Red Wings and Pittsburgh Penguins...
...and Carolina Hurricanes. A better defensive club than the Oilers, who were inconsistent in that regard for the majority of the past four seasons of Skinner's career.

Skinner is better than Ned.
