Pps like that are just so inexcusable

I’f you’re struggling a bit. Just keep it simple.

Blast some pucks. It’s almost like Bouchard has a cannon? Wonder if that could be a good thing?

Skinner the star of that pp...

Oilers gotta get a second pp layout for when it's obvious teams have prepared/figured out there set up.
 
That is outperforming guys like Markström, Swayman, Vasilevskiy, Oettinger, Gibson, Woll, Shesterkin, Gustavsson.
How can you determine that from SV %? Goalie stats are relative, they are all not facing the same chances. Oilers are now elite at preventing HDC, and that should correlate to great stats by the goalies.

I think we have all been conditioned into these beliefs by many years of bad goaltending, which has destroyed our perspective. Pickard is a replacement level goalie, and he's outperformed skinner. A logical inference is then that Skinner is also a replacement level goalie. If Skinner was more than a replacement level goalie, would he not be grossly outperforming Pickard? There should be a big gap. Who cares what goalies are doing in different situations, look at the guys who are in the exact same position imo

Bouchard seems to be hesitating too much. He needs to blast the puck instead of passing it to Connor. Blast the puck with bodies in front for the tip.

Stop spitting facts....Lets see what Stan does. I think he will bring in a goalie to play with Skinner and let them push one another

Hopefully we didn’t expel all of our energy to get back in the game. Hopefully we keep pushing and don’t go into turtle mode trying to get to OT.

PP goal would of been nice at the end.
