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

And the main reason they didn't match the offer sheets was to accrue cap space which they aren't doing anymore and to top it off they have to wait until March 1st, apparently, to see if they have any cap space for the deadline. This is amateur hour, and they hired a guy with massive baggage because of his "experience" yet he seems to be approaching as if he's never GMed in the league before. I never thought I'd long for Holland yet....here we are.

It really is like 2018 all over again, isn’t it?

That's now three 2 on 1s and no shots for?

 

[McTedi]

Klingberg and Skinner had half of this team's goals the past 2 games that weren't scored by Drai... and they both get scratched... makes sense to someone I guess.

Not sure if you saw Klingberg’s last game.

 

[Jimmi McJenkins]

Been saying it for a couple years, but if I had a break away on not my fault skinner I would wrap around, auto goal. Cant believe NHLers dont try it on this plug

You been hoping all that time for failure, they've achieved it Tambo, you should be quite pleased and pleased with yourself.

Are people agreeing with Louie that Bouchard should of challenged the wrap around? In my eyes the goalie should cover wrap arounds and Bouchard was positioning to prevent Hagel from skating out and taking a better angle shot.

 

[CupofOil]

After about six different coaches with the same result, at some point it’s time to look at something other than coaching as the main problem.

Thank god for this post and some rational thought.

It's the players guys, the players and the GMs. The coaches aren't the issue for the 50 millionth year.

He’s become Kassian.

Naw, at least Kassian would at least throw the odd hit.

 

[LeonDraisaitl29]

Don't touch our goalie punk. Even if he sucks

 

[Tobias Kahun]

A coach who doesn’t value hitting has no business in this league, I’m sure he’d be fine in the women’s league though.

PWHL is way too physical for this coach.

He had a lot of time to get his stick on that. Instead he floated, waived and did nothing.

If one of 2 or 74 do their job on that it isn’t a goal. Neither did.

 

[LeonDraisaitl29]

Whats Louie talking about" that's a penalty" ref didn't have his arm up

As annoyed as I am with Bouchard’s defensive play this season, the root cause was Skinner not getting over.

The secret is that he never knows what he's talking about.

 

[Tobias Kahun]

Why not roll McDrai with Savoie for a bit, get the kid his first NHL goal. He's as much of a puck hound as anyone else right now.

They’re giving him his best chance.

He’s playing with the oilers best player

 

[brentashton]

Oilers look terrible. Damn.

You’re being generous in your praise.

 

[Heavy Dee]

PWHL is way too physical for this coach.

Just wait, he will drop a Frick bomb at the intermission.

 

[McHelpus]

He’s become Kassian.

Didn't people say this was around the time he was going to fall off when he signed his deal? People claimed we wouldn't need to worry about it because we would have won a Cup by now.

It really is like 2018 all over again, isn’t it?

The three of you need to f***ing stop this NOW.

We had 78 points in the entirety of 2017-2018. We are currently at 72.

Yeah this sucks. But acting like the sky is falling is both stupid and pathetic.

 

[CantHaveTkachev]

great save Skinner

they simply don't care about defense

 

[Sanchez]

f***ing hell wake up!!!

 

[LeonDraisaitl29]

Look like the Sharks last year

 

[McTedi]

Pods that was a shitty pass

 

[CantHaveTkachev]

McDavid forced to play with Podz
