GDT: Game #46: Oilers @ Canucks - 8 PM - HNIC

[Behind Enemy Lines]

Good net front team defending. Second game recently Emberson with textbook weak side support for his goaltender to clear away a dangerous puck.

 

[CanadasTeam99]

Skinner and Emberson keeping us in it

Pathetic that we have to type that against a team who is lucky to get like 7 shots in first periods and can't generate much at all

Boys never come hard in first periods

 

[Fixed to Ruin]

Skinner is making saves. Can we wake up?

2nd period is only 7 minutes away

 

[Cloned]

Boys never come hard in first periods

Last game of a long tiring stretch.

I think we can give them the benefit of the doubt.

 

[LeonDraisaitl29]

Skinner looks dialed in

 

[Mez]

We got good Stu tonight

Thank goodness, this is almost a scheduled lose after that insane road trip. Hopefully he can steal it for us tonight.

 

[Bring Back Bucky]

I sure wish I had some deli turkey to make a sandwich.

 

[CrazyJoeDavola]

This is going to have to be a lot like the COL game. Boys are dead tired, last game of a brutal roadie.

Just survive and find your legs in the 2nd

Oilers are pathetic in the first period

 

[Murphinator]

Hey for once can we play good while having good goaltending? Why the f*** is it always one or the other?

 

[oobga]

lol. People still getting so mad at old Perry for the tiniest touch at a puck. Come on. Give the old guy a break.

 

[Lay Z Boy GM]

Alright sign Emberson for at least 3 years soon before he costs too much. 24 years old and you can see him improving as the season progresses. Great scouting getting this kid

 

[Jimmi McJenkins]

Is Ray rerraro doing colour?

 

[CanadasTeam99]

Is Ray rerraro doing colour?

He's a Canucks Homer lives there

 

[Behind Enemy Lines]

Can't win a prize if you can't hit the net

 

[oobga]

Is Ray rerraro doing colour?

Fay Rerraro is indeed gracing us with his presence.

 

[yukoner88]

Skinner and defense pretty on point so far

Canucks clearly feeling shame from recent events and are giving 100%. Gotta humble them with our own attack

Weather the storm n then POUNCE!

 

[Bryanbryoil]

Drai was caught off guard on that pass from Connor. Usually he's always ready, that was one rare time that he wasn't.

Oilers are pathetic in the first period

0-0. Pathetic.

 

[Cloned]

Oilers are pathetic in the first period

I don’t think it’s fair to use words like pathetic when the team is third in the entire league.

They have weaknesses but let’s not go overboard.

 

[oobga]

0-0. Pathetic.

Getting out of the first not letting a goal is an auto win for the Oilers these days.

 

[Vagabond]

Typical 1st period. . Except we're not down by 3 or 4. So far so good!

 

[LeonDraisaitl29]

Tocchet deserves to be coach of the year?

 

[AnInjuredJasonZucker]

All of the Canucks want to get traded. I'm sure Tocchet will be up for the Adams.

 

[yukoner88]

Scott Oake has a crush on Tocchet
