GDT: Game # 54 - Oilers@Black Hawks - 7:30PM - Midnight Madness on Madison

[Oilhawks]

This better be some freaking flu going around

Hooboy

If not, very entitled play

 

[Oilking83]

Why are you passing there Nurse?

f***ing stupid idiots!!

To be fair Nurse would’ve probably also shot it high and wide

 

[OilerMcLord]

I can't remember, are we blaming Pickard for that goal.

 

[Duke74]

Putting McDrai together is an automatic minus.

 

[jesusbuiltmyhotrod]

Hard to win when the top players are playing like this

 

[CanadasTeam99]

lol classic outcome.

Coaching staff better tear a strip off these guys in between periods

lol Knob will just hide in the corner. No consequences for any players or pathetic PP. No players changing on it. Country Club

f***ing stupid idiots!!

Cuz hes on his forehand for a clapper. Not Nurse's fault he has no aim

 

[OfCorsiDid]

I will come coach the PP.

Is your PP hard to defend?

 

[Oilhawks]

If the Oilers were outplaying their opponents like multiple Skinner stinkers, probably

 

[Ibanez]

Hard to win when the top players are playing like this

We seem to have about 2-3 players trying tonight and one of them is pickard

 

[MessierII]

playing about a 10% effort. totally deserve to lose

After they scored they played hockey for a bit there till that pp came and just killed the momentum again.

 

[Dirk Dangler]

The decision making on the pp is absolutely putrid.

It’s like they don’t know what to do since what worked last year is not working.

Since this is an audition of sorts for Klingberg, I’d like to see him slot in for Nuge and Bouch at times on the PP. I think he could be good in Nuge spot. Opens up another one timer option and I think he can control the puck just as well. The change could spark a refresh for the group.

 

[Shizuka]

Pretty much concur with everything said here -- a completely tepid, phoned in effort thus far. Will be lucky to escape with a point tonight, never mind two.

 

[AnInjuredJasonZucker]

We have the killer instincts of a marshmallow

Marshmallows know how to get the job done.

Should have made some changes to the PP ages ago. Country club coaching

 

[McFlash97]

What an absolute horseshit shift by Kapanen. One times the puck 5 ft wide! Then casually skates back with 5 seconds left knows where his player is and still makes the ridiculous decision to wave his stick instead taking the man or tying up his stick. Just pure laziness

That was all Kapanen not tying up his check's stick.

Yeah that was bad . He should be benched for a bit

 

[Mez]

Oilers already on the 4 nations break.

 

[CrazyJoeDavola]

old and slow lineup starting to show it's oldness and slowness as the season progresses

 

[Behind Enemy Lines]

Team looks bagged. Imagine the flu is a factor along with the line mash ups. Not a lot of chemistry happening. Need to dig in to win with a C game. Though not liking this team failing to extend leads against non playoff competition. They finish on one PP and a 2-0 game is probably over.

 

[LeonDraisaitl29]

This effort was kind of expected, yet simultaneously still pisses me off haha

 

[Morpheus]

Oilers 4 hits after 40 mins

 

[Tarus]

Games like this make you wonder how the Oilers are even in a playoff spot

And man, is Podkolzin ever a terrible passer. He's at RNH's level in his ability to underwhelm every time he tries to do something on the ice with the puck.
