GDT: Game #51 - Red Wings @ Oilers - 7PM - Swedish? Hold my beer

[Old Boys Club]

So many shots. So few goals

Standard Oilers game

 

[LeonDraisaitl29]

Draisaitl is the best player on the planet right now- and it isn’t even close

Usually the opposite after a player signs a big deal

 

[RattsSSV]

Travelling for work and finally got to the hotel to turn the game on. How's Klingberg looked? Just first impressions, I know it's not even 1 full game yet haha

He has been good. No big giveaways coughs... Bouchard.

 

[McTonyBrar]

Good shift there for the Nurse and Klingberg pair

 

[Lenny Levino]

He just had a pretty good shift. Haven't noticed him much before that.

 

[BlackDogg]

The Oilers were out playing them so bad in the first they forgot they were playing an NHL team.

 

[foshizzle]

Arvidsson is useless

I thought he has had a good game. Lots of good hard shots on net- doesn’t pass up an opportunity to shoot. I like that

You haven't seen me play

But yes I agree

 

[foshizzle]

Lol

 

[LeonDraisaitl29]

Yeah, cause you're too good. Wouldn't be fair.

 

[Messrules11]

He is way too weak along the boards. Lowetide said it best- he needs to be on low event third line. He is bringing McDavid down too

Yup, 5M, and doesn’t belong in top 6. Guys complain about Arvidsson and Skinner (rightfully so) but Nuge always escapes criticism

 

[oobga]

Nice, a rare "not icing"

 

[jesusbuiltmyhotrod]

After the first what a boring game

 

[Jimmi McJenkins]

Nice physical take out by Kulak on Larkin. He's been just great this year, Kulak.

Like everyone else he needs to convert a bit more of his chances.

 

[BlackDogg]

Boatchard

 

[TopShelfGloveSide]

Nuge potting the winner.

 

[Sanchez]

f***ing Nuge

 

[jesusbuiltmyhotrod]

Lmao nuge

 

[tardigrade81]

Detroit has really made this a hell of a game. Wow.

 

[Jarvi]

Yup, 5M, and doesn’t belong in top 6. Guys complain about Arvidsson and Skinner (rightfully so) but Nuge always escapes criticism

Probably because Nuge has as many points as those guys put together, and PK's.

Skinner doesn't deserve the hate. Arvidsson is useless most nights.

 

[oobga]

Ooooh tell me a story......please.

Once upon a time, the Oilers were in the hunt for the playoffs after many years of epic failure. The GM explained that he was so impressed by their efforts that he would try to help them get over the hump and clinch a spot and trigger the first stage of the great Oilers rebuild. He went out and acquired the best faceoff man he could find with no regard of the players ability to do anything else in a hockey game. And all was well in the world.

 

[jesusbuiltmyhotrod]

Arvidson seems to get hit a lot too

 

[nexttothemoon]

I'll pick Hyman for the winning goal.

 

[Sanchez]

Yeah ref ain't calling a pp for us
