GDT: Game #57: Oilers @ Capitals - 11 AM - Sportsnet

[brentashton]

No Janmark, sick, injured or benched?

He had a few tough shifts yesterday (didnt everybody though?).

I suspect he’s the sacrificial lamb.

Benched

Listening to Got Yet Back now as I do my chores and I'm floored at barely a mention of Skinner, just a passing comment blaming the turnovers more than him, yet a 10 minute or so segment that I just started posting in the middle of (still more to go when I play it again) absolutely lambasting Bouchard.

Bouchard deserves it but the fact that there's so much talk about him being a big liability and nothing on Skinner is just lunacy and it's been happening all season.
There's also the fact that Bouchard is a much much better player than Skinner when he's right so there should be a little more role with him. It's wild this constant defense of Skinner by the media and I say this as one of his few backers generally. Ok, that's my rant

They been like that all year. Almost all of the media has been.

 

[5 Mins 4 Ftg]

Could be the odd man out…but he did have a turnover yesterday that led to a goal against.

If we’re benching players for having a turnover leading to a goal against then Bouchard should be stapled for about 10 games then lol.

Skinner on 4th line. Guy gets like five goals in five games prior to the break and he’s back stapled on the bottom line when we’re having trouble getting secondary scoring. Confirmation that KK hates him.

Eat shit Skinner fan boys

Eat shit Skinner fan boys

Well that’s about as direct as Knoblauch has ever got

 

[BlackDogg]

Hopefully Skinner starts again. Just need to get him going.

Need to showcase him!

 

[Not Canada Drai]

Skinner would never. Good play by Bouch to tie up the stick

 

[BlackDogg]

Welcome Back 5!

Now what about 5saitle

 

[brentashton]

Pickard doing his job.

 

[LeonDraisaitl29]

K Louie stop spitting on your headset

 

[5 Mins 4 Ftg]

That was pretty

 

[LeonDraisaitl29]

Connor looked like he was hurt getting up?

 

[Gnome17]

Yeah sorry but that was not penalty, McDavid just fumbled the puck and fell over, like he has been doing for a while now..He gotta get going, thats an automatic goal when he is on.

edit: Draisaitl!!

 

[BlackDogg]

Perfect goal

 

[OilerTyler]

Pretty sure Connor just fell there

 

[Sanchez]

Drai baby!

 

[RattsSSV]

Well done boys

 

[Behind Enemy Lines]

McCycle breaker

 

[Messrules11]

Drai is just sick

 

[dssource]

Drai! That was so telegraphed and still worked.

 

[CantHaveTkachev]

Drai is gonna score 60

 

[Jimmi McJenkins]

Great puck movement and a classic Draisaitl finish

 

[BlackDogg]

Pretty sure Connor just fell there

It'l have to make up for the other 10000000 where it gets ignored

 

[LemmyUlanov55]

Leon gets it going, yay!
