GDT: Game #58: Oilers @ Bolts - 5:30 PM - SN1

[CycloneSweep]

4 in a row. all of them quite ugly. Florida ain't gonna be much easier.

It’ll be 5 maybe 6 in a row.
Absolutely zero signs that we can win a game right now.

 

[K1984]

Only person who is capable of scoring is Lein it seems

Or possessing the puck for more than 2 seconds without turning it over.

 

[Behind Enemy Lines]

Might be time to think of last year as an overachievement. We won't be getting that close again.

Definitely can't count on repeating a 94% outscoring PK. Lot of components that are questionable to repeat on a team that is worse, smaller, and older.

 

[Salvaged Ship]

This team could use a couple of weeks off to rest up and recharge. Oh wait…………

 

[McHelpus]

Maybe we are distracted for the game against Florida??

 

[LeonDraisaitl29]

Just wanna see Savoie score his first goal

 

[Sanchez]

Too bad Savoie but keep it up.

 

[VanCanFanEDM]

It's Comical seeing Bouchard pointing out opposing players in the defensive zone.. if I was a teammate I'd be rolling my eyes everything he did that

 

[K1984]

It’ll be 5 maybe 6 in a row.
Absolutely zero signs that we can win a game right now.

I’d bet my house we don’t win either of the next two. This team does not learn quickly.

 

[unicornBLOOD]

awe nuts, would of been nice to see Savoie get that one.

 

[CycloneSweep]

Savoie is like “send me back down please”

 

[Jimmi McJenkins]

Do they finally win again at home against Anaheim? Not certain. Oh well, it was kinda fun when they were good-ish, should have known better.

Tambo just first pumping this I'm sure, one of the many celebrating

 

[KCC]

at least edm has a buffer points wise as they continue losing. lol

 

[OfCorsiDid]

For what? Another embarrassment?

Actually I comeback each time hoping that you no longer post here.

 

[MoontoScott]

On that 4th goal:

Nuge should know by now how to tie up a guy's stick--take a penalty if absolutely necessary.

Skinner can come out to challenge the play a bit more.

Well--looks like 4 in a row---the wrong row I guess.

 

[unicornBLOOD]

I hope this team is embarrassed, not even close to good enough.

 

[CupofOil]

Bowman is experienced enough to know, not just in goaltending but in GMing. He knows that if we aren't competitive this year and goaltending is a major reason, then the loss is 100% on the GM. He was asked right to his face if he was looking for a goalie. It's an obvious issue to everyone at this point. If Skinner and Pickard get it done on the way to a Stanley Cup then he'll look smart by keeping them. Cooper redeemed himself with Binnington's clutch performance.

Honestly though, I bet Bowman is quietly looking. He is new here. He wouldn't have any stake in riding it out with our goalies, and wouldnt have any reason to think theyd be clutch. It will be a purely statistical decision with him, and lots of GMs have said that a move isn't coming right before it does

Well, if he has zero cap space because Kane is returning then he isn't quietly looking for anything, the deadline will just be....quiet.

 

[FlameChampion]

Knoblauch might want to rethink his offensive strategy. Team needs to get more pucks and traffic to the net.

 

[iCanada]

Is it accurate to say that the team stopped playing after that Hagel goal? Didn't see the game, but watching the highlights, yikes.

What a brutal goal.

Fancies seem to back that up, but I don't like to just go off that.

 

[Faelko]

Another pathetic performance by the Oilers, team is broken.

 

[Sanchez]

This game is over Jack!

 

[McTedi]

Skinner with the agility of a turtle on its back

 

[CycloneSweep]

at least edm has a buffer points wise as they continue losing. lol

LA will take them soon.

 

[KeithIsActuallyBad]

Actually I comeback each time hoping that you no longer post here.

Much like the team I am an eternal disappointment.

Out of curiosity Jimmi, why do you keep mentioning Tambo?
