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

[Tarus]

Oilers spotted a superior Colorado team 3 goals last game, and still managed to win. Hopefully they still have some gas in the tank and can make another attempt

 

[BlackDogg]

Why do we always insist on spotting the other team 2-3 goals?

They seem to want the perfect play to start a game, and refuse to shoot on net, which never helps.

 

[Missing smitty]

Why do we always insist on spotting the other team 2-3 goals?

Because Skinner requires perfect defending to do his job.

That's what happens at the end of a long bullshit roadie when your goaltender can't spot you a period.

 

[Shaquille Oatmeal]

Still 40 mins to go. It'll be a hard fought W tonight. Oilers 6-5 in overtime

 

[CanadasTeam99]

Imagine giving up 17 shots on goal to this team lol. They barely get 20 alot of games

Atrocious period

Some coward ask Knob why he went 11-7 as well. Did Skinner bang his wife

 

[KeithIsActuallyBad]

Hes a goalie. I dont care. Make a f***ing save. He puts us in a hole often.

He did, the team is playing like dogshit again.

 

[Kirby]

League tried their best to f*** us over with the schedule and it didn’t work so they sent in the zebras to finish the job.

The reffing has been shit. But Edmonton has failed to show up and start a first period for the third game in a row

Difference was Edmonton was controlling play even in the first

 

[Murphinator]

He did, the team is playing like dogshit again.

One or 2 good saves? Okay?

 

[ArthurAnyMoreDonuts]

Just caught the end of the period. Why are we dressing Josh Brown again? lol

 

[LeonDraisaitl29]

I don't wanna hate on Knoblauch as he's a fantastic coach but why 11-7 tonight? Wrong choice after a long road trip.

 

[Bryanbryoil]

Bad period and surprise, surprise Chris Lee is ass. Boys need to up their intensity level or this game is getting out of hand in a hurry.

 

[AnInjuredJasonZucker]

Hes a goalie. I dont care. Make a f***ing save. He puts us in a hole often.

He did make multiple huge saves in the first.

 

[CanadasTeam99]

I don't wanna hate on Knoblauch as he's a fantastic coach but why 11-7 tonight? Wrong choice after a long road trip.

Why wrong? Why not over play forwards at the end of a road trip? Lol

Insane idiotic choice

 

[KeithIsActuallyBad]

One or 2 good saves? Okay?

Do you think they played a good period?

 

[Behind Enemy Lines]

Hit the Canucks with possibly a season defining game for them... with an empty tank.

Two week ago I saw the Oilers start this road trip in Seattle. Most f***ed up scheduling I've ever seen and that's saying alot for this league.

 

[Murphinator]

He did make multiple huge saves in the first.

Then he turns into a sieve. He isnt consistent

Do you think they played a good period?

No, but skinner certainly didnt f***ing help lol

 

[tardigrade81]

Washington beating Detroit.

What a strange weekend

 

[OfCorsiDid]

To be fair, if we do lose this we absolutely deserve it for dressing Josh Brown over Jeff Skinner.

 

[Tobias Kahun]

He did, the team is playing like dogshit again.

It’s funny watching you defend the goalie every time, just shows everyone how little you know

 

[AnInjuredJasonZucker]

I don't wanna hate on Knoblauch as he's a fantastic coach but why 11-7 tonight? Wrong choice after a long road trip.

Only thing I can think of is they're trying to figure out if it's Brown or Stecher that get waived for Klingberg. The answer should be obvious, but they're probably scard of having no options with toughness.

 

[oXo Cube]

Got em right where we want em

 

[CupofOil]

I hate today. Oilers with this garbage and the Detroit Lions proving to be utter frauds, disgusted in a sports aren't that important in the grand scheme but still effect me somewhat kind of a way

 

[Shaquille Oatmeal]

More of a downdate

Fire that MF that made the update. I'm going to start a committee. DOGE. Department Of GameDay Efficiency. I will bring back live threads to the people.
