Game 45 Oilers Avalanche 7 30 PM Sn1

[Behind Enemy Lines]

5 shots....

Brutal d flood burned on first goal. Mackinnon a breakaway from centre ice. Skinner no stops with alot of help tonight. Shot count is irrelevant. High quality breakdowns against the wrong guys

 

[NegativeNelly]

This organization thinks it can win with 2 backup goalies. Neither has showed the consistency to be a starter. We need to get a starter or get a defence that only allows 2 shots a game

 

[Zerotonine]

Yikes!

Everytime Skinner has a solid game he falls into a black hole the following game.

 

[brentashton]

3 ga on 5 shots.

 

[CanadasTeam99]

and of course the Avs now have good goaltending because they actually did something about it...

I said it the day of the trade. It's massive for them. Guys been lights out.

Tons of oiler fans on twitter said go get him even last year.

Management gets too stuck on mediocrity

 

[McAsuno]

We could have had Askarov too.

Not even sure who’d be the target now.

Vejmelka.

 

[oobga]

We've played absolutely fine.

We've outplayed the AVS.

Our guys been a sieve and there's has been money.

I include the goalies in the slacking. Usually our goalies only show up in the 2nd and 3rd lately.

 

[BlackDogg]

Goaltending is like night and day in this one

 

[Vagabond]

Oil need a Starting goaltender more than any other position. Skinner isn't there yet and the cup window is now.

Then obviously a top 4 RH shot.

 

[foshizzle]

Blackwood is ten times the goalie Skinner is but of course our management somehow gets hypnotized my below average goaltenders.

They are being advised by Schwartz…

 

[herestohoping]

At least Colorado hasn’t score again… oh that’s because they haven’t had a shot on net since

 

[GrumpyKoala]

We could have had Askarov too.

Not even sure who’d be the target now.

You can probably find better at the Costco frozen aisle

 

[rickysusedsht]

Weird, I thought Blackwood wasn't good enough according to some people lol.

Yup he has only allowed 2 goals or less the last 11 games...seems shitty to me

 

[GMofOilers]

We could keep this at 3 just don’t allow a shot

 

[Satoru Gojo]

Gibson maybe

 

[PaPaDee]

Yikes, was an expected loss anyway, but cmon, make some saves.

 

[CycloneSweep]

We could have had Askarov too.

Not even sure who’d be the target now.

Jarry

 

[McAsuno]

Not an upgrade over our tandem obviously.
Zzzz...

 

[CanadasTeam99]

I can see the avs go right back to the finals with how their goaltending improved. No shot against them if we meet.

 

[soothsayer]

The big problem with Skinner is that his bad games are devastating, like, auto losses. Do they have to be so bad? Sheesh.

 

[VeteranPresence]

Soooo we finally get to see Blackwood vs. Skinner and well... not shocked this is the outcome. But who could have foreseen a goalie with really good numbers on a really bad team being a great goalie on a good team? Not Zack Kassian and the other two stooges who are our entire pro scouting department, that's for sure.

Where do you think center ice is????

 

[nexttothemoon]

upside...

just think of how strong McDrai's backs are going to be after carrying the entire team (including 2 inconsistent goalies) to a playoff berth...

 

[29Beast97Mode]

We could have had Askarov too.

Not even sure who’d be the target now.

Gibson I think

 

[McAsuno]

Jarry

Jarry f***ing sucks lol.
