GDT: Game #44: Oilers @ Wild - 6:30 PM - SNW

[K1984]

The puck play in our own end is f***ing embarrassing.

 

[Old Boys Club]

Nurse-Brown is a disaster

 

[jesusbuiltmyhotrod]

yes

it's one game lol

Do these people only watch the oilers?

 

[GrumpyKoala]

I seen dogs trying to eat broccoli harder than this

 

[McTedi]

He has looked real good. I like him w Perry too. Not a big fan of Kap there tonight, but I can see the logic in playing him there. Gives Philp another guy with boots to work with.

I’ve only noticed him on the ice twice, both times he looked good.

 

[Murphinator]

This team has so many holes. Bowman needs to do some heavy lifting at the deadline. Does anyone see us winning a 7 game series against these guys, much less the Kings and Knights?

Blow it up obviously

 

[FanOfSadTeam]

A healthy Kane would bring a lot to this game.

Like Gretz said on the TNT broadcast, Oilers are lacking grit and size this season

 

[Old Boys Club]

Split up McDrai, tired of this BS

 

[Tom Brady]

You deserve to lose when you have a loser player like Josh Brown in the lineup

 

[K1984]

Nurse-Brown is a disaster

Had a post earlier today saying that Brown is irrelevant until he plays 15+ minutes.

Well here we are. A total mess.

 

[Vagabond]

Boys are getting worked in their strongest period. Knob trying to reinvent the wheel is causing a chemistry storm.

 

[TheNumber4]

We are so far from playing our game right now. Can't make a consecutive passes. Can't hold onto pucks.

 

[GhostfaceWu]

How was that not charging sctually

 

[Mr Positive]

The Nurse-Brown pairing is not working. Why would Knolauch try that? Nurse has never played well with bad skaters. It's not like Brown is any better than Desharnais. And yeah Nurse now looks awful again

 

[VeteranPresence]

Soooo does Stan think Klingberg learned how to tend goal during his rehab or something?

 

[McDoused]

Aren't we 17-4-1 or something in their last 22?

 

[LevelingSolo]

Honestly full credit to John Hynes he’s done an amazing job with this team this season

I really don’t get how this Minny team is as good as they are

 

[Sanchez]

No more pps for us I guess

 

[russ99]

We’re playing 2-3 healthy defensemen playing a consistent game, out starting goalie is shaky, backup flat, forwards are cheating for offense and we’re running McDrai into the ground. May be a negative reaction but not an overreaction. I want the Oilers to succeed in the postseason not regular season goalscoring.

It gives us a preview of what Nurse-Risto will look like atleast.

 

[McHelpus]

This team needs Klingberg. I'm sure he will help solidify our defensive struggles

 

[Shanahanigans]

This team has an offensive depth problem, and I’m more concerned about that heading into the playoffs than the defense.

 

[oobga]

Dang, so close by Drai

 

[jesusbuiltmyhotrod]

We are so far from playing our game right now. Can't make a consecutive passes. Can't hold onto pucks.

They look tired. Need a boost of momentum

I would like to think Knob is just showing the geniuses upstairs what they "gifted" him with, but then he's made some really questionable choices all year so I am not optimistic.
