GDT: Game 44: Blackhawks @ Oilers - 7 PM - SN1

[Green Xero]

Gags put 8 points up on these guys when they were still decent, McDrai should be have a few points already. Lol

 

[KCC]

So how come McDavid gets a penalty too?

He hit him, got held and then turned around and held right back. It’s the right call I think. Lol

 

[TheNumber4]

Dickinson with the abdominal stretch

 

[mkatcherin00]

Half way thru the first and 1 SOG?

That's not surprising. What do we average the last month? Maybe 6 in the first. These slow starts will kill them once we play a solid team

 

[JeffSkinner53]

Oh great clownshoes reffing again!

You can always tell when you’re watching straight-to-video-quality, 3AM network affiliate trash filler by the type of advertisements … non stop gambling and medical ads? You’re watching trash.. oh wait

 

[Kirby]

BS that McDavid got a penalty for that

 

[VainGretzky]

Half way thru the first and 1 SOG?

when a team plays the night before their legs are always fresher in the 1st, then they start tightening up not worried at all

 

[DingDongCharlie]

These starts are brutal.

 

[Oilslick941611]

I like that we have a backup we can trust.

 

[BlackDogg]

So the Oilers don't play tonight?

 

[Jimmi McJenkins]

Desharnais, another good block. He's really good at closing the gap on guys in the defensive zone.

Seems we are not interested in any scoring chance unless we first thread a pass through 3 Hawks players.

 

[KeithIsActuallyBad]

Yay a shot on net!

 

[Jimmi McJenkins]

Damn that pass.

 

[Oilslick941611]

Desharnais, another good block. He's really good at closing the gap on guys in the defensive zone.

I don't understand why people give him crap. Hes a beast and doesn't get scored on. He's exactly what we need back there.

 

[DingDongCharlie]

This is why I want McLeod on the wing in the top 6.

RNH - McDavid - Hyman
McLeod - Draisaitl - Foegele

These players have looked best in this lineup. Build a 3rd line around Kane/Holloway already

 

[Tobias Kahun]

Seems we are not interested in any scoring chance unless we first thread a pass through 3 Hawks players.

Everyone needs to touch the puck before they shoot.

 

[Sanchez]

f*** sakes these guys!!! Hawks played last night and didn't get to hotel till 3am!!! So frustrating these starts!

 

[KeithIsActuallyBad]

It really is frustrating how our two fifty goal scorers insist on passing.

 

[DingDongCharlie]

I don't understand why people give him crap. Hes a beast and doesn't get scored on. He's exactly what we need back there.

He's really improved the last 2 months. I used to be highly critical of him, no longer.

 

[mkatcherin00]

It;s honestly better not even turning an Oilers game on until period 2

Their urgency level is like -1000 in first periods

 

[TheNumber4]

No room in that net front these days. Need to try something different.

 

[KCC]

I feel like edm is making it too easy on Chicago right now. Lol

 

[McDrai]

McLeod is a great placeholder for McDavid. Has the speed of McDavid and looks pretty good out there with Drai. They should be permanent linemates in my opinion.
