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

[oobga]

lol Point. You scared to shoot on Skinner bro?

 

[Duke74]

This team is first round fodder.

If they make the playoffs in the first place.

 

[CupofOil]

omg, that last Bouch turnover? come on, sit his a$$ for a game.

Nah, J. Skinner will sit another game due to Bouchard's turnover

 

[Messrules11]

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

Florida is gonna slap their sister and make them their bitch.

 

[MoontoScott]

The only guy on this team playing or exceeding his abilities this year is the only guy that never has to worry about signing another contract.

And maybe Savoie who hasn’t been beaten down by the lazy vibes of this team yet.

Zero input from so many guys.

Jack - "the Oilers are running out of time."

this game could be 100 periods and the Oilers would not being coming back to win.

 

[Oilslick941611]

this team should hate Tampa. Tampa won and celebrated a stanley cup in their own dressing room in the covid bubble...

But theres no emotion at all.

 

[Jimmi McJenkins]

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

@GMofOilers , he picked the name for tambelilini, so I call him Tambo for short. He's pretty excited the Oilers have finally come to the level he was hoping for.

Anti-clutch

someone's stuck in the past.

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.

Stopped playing at about the 10 min mark of the first.

 

[Murphinator]

Game 7 finals loss then an imploding team. I f***ing love hockey

 

[Zguy370]

Skinner with the agility of turtle on its back

Honestly, never seen as goalie with such slow movement and reflexes, looks like he's trying to maneuver in quick sand!

 

[Uindicator]

I wouldn’t give him more than 4. Like Brian Burke says, he’s a danger at both ends of the ice. People talk about his points, but any dummy can get 30 assists playing on the Oilers power play stacking up secondary assists by giving the puck to McDavid for two minutes in a row.

A couple weeks ago I made a similar post outlining how Bouch is not an elite Dman like a few here think he is and giving him anywhere near 9-10 mil would be suicide for this team. Where you all at now lmao

Jason Gregor analytics says Gibson is slower though.

 

[K1984]

Florida is gonna slap their sister and make them their bitch.

When the Panthers were here they got shutout the previous two games and were playing like shit. They responded with a good effort and a W.

0% chance of that happening with this group of entitled, dumb, assholes.

ya, it's been a pretty crazy downfall. Gotta love being a fan.

 

[Tarus]

Tbay just sitting back and letting the Oilers tire themselves out, even getting the better chances on the counterattack when Edm inevitably turns it over trying to get through the neutral zone.

It's times like this that you can really see just how dependent the Oilers are on Mcdavid/Drai to carry every play, no one is capable of creating anything

 

[Sanchez]

Jason Gregor analytics says Gibson is slower though.

Gregor is never wrong so must be true!

 

[rboomercat90]

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.

Nuge learned how to defend from Horcoff. It shouldn’t surprise you that he doesn’t know how to tie up a guys stick.

 

[CycloneSweep]

Maybe we will finally trade for a 4c. That’s the solution.

 

[nexttothemoon]

I didn't realize the Oilers not winning their division since 1987 is the longest drought in all of pro sports.

 

[unicornBLOOD]

5 to 1 is my guess for the final score.

 

[Duke74]

The only question that remains is whether Knob will pull Skinner to get Koochie another EN point.

 

[Oilhawks]

The only question that remains is whether Knob will pull Skinner to get Koochie another EN point.

Knob’s big empty head pretty much assures that
