Game #61: Oilers vs. Ducks - 7 PM - SN1

[McFlyingV]

Last year's team could come back in this one, but this years team knows their goalie will probably let another 2-3 weak ones so they know they're gonna have to score 7 minimum to get to overtime.

 

[VeteranPresence]

Lol and people laughed at Colorado for nipping their goaltending problem in the butt right away.

Typical Oilers.

But they traded too much for him!!!11!!!!

Too bad most of the bright sparks who mocked Colorado can no longer read my posts. I’d love to see their justifications now.

 

[Drivesaitl]

Lovely Skinner is in; too bad it's not Jeff.

I was hoping somehow not to have to see sleepy Skins in net tonight. f*** me.

First time I think Pickard has been pulled this year.

Bob Stauffer - "This isn't on the goalies".....

Meanwhile Gage says Pickard has to stop the 2nd and 3rd goals.


Principe tried to calm down Boob

I'm surprised Stauffer can even see games anymore. I swear, that guy is one Mediterranean chicken pizza away from that restaurant scene in the Meaning of Life...

First time pickard has been pulled as an Oiler

 

[Ritchie Valens]

Yes lets blame another coach. My God

Well…Knob is coaching game 130 with these guys. That’s about when they start to tune a guy out.

Tippett: 171 games
Woodcroft: 133 games
Knob: 129 games

 

[MessierThanThou]

is that goal where he was left all alone in front of the net because 3 oilers were below the redline and 2 oilers were behind McTavish about 10 feet away not moving? Youre blaming the goalie on that?


<DONT LEAVE A GUY ALONE IN FRONT OF THE NET!!!!!>

Do you seriously not want this team to get a goalie? Not every defensive mistake is an auto-goal. Like holy f***, some of those were actually stoppable by most NHL goalies. I mean cool if you're happy with this team being shit, but some of us actually want this roster to improve.

 

[McFlyingV]

I think the obvious problem is this year's team has been practicing on this goaltending and so they can't figure out why shooting the puck right at the goalie isn't going in.

 

[Cloned]

Well at least this will probably make management pivot on goaltending.

 

[CycloneSweep]

ahh yes Knoblauch. This is what I was talking about. Bad period and instantly load up the top line and pray instead of sticking with your f***ing lines and challenging the entire team to step up. Instead it’s just “McDrai save me!”

Bob is carrying water for the org

They will NOT trade for a goalie by the TDL

The things is it won’t. That’s the worst part.

 

[Sanchez]

1st shot saved!

 

[LTIR]

Should try Perry instead of Hyman with McDrai..

Maybe the issue is the leadership group then. If they need new coach every 150ish games... then its an uncoachable group and just get rid everyone wearing a letter.

 

[oobga]

Honestly super bummed right now. I was so certain that Pickard suddenly turned into a #1 goalie that could go 4 rounds in the playoffs.

Now suddenly I have these crazy expectations again that our GM get a goalie for this team.

Yep. They won’t trade for a goalie and we will finally lose to LA in the first round. They will respond by signing Frederic to a 4x4 contract with a full NMC.

If we don't the playoffs will be a waste of 8 days.

 

[brentashton]

A goalie is the biggest reason they’re down 3, anyone with half a brain could see that. Goals 2 and 3 were awful

Tobias, He can’t help it.

 

[29Beast97Mode]

1st shot saved!

Praise the lord. A miracle

 

[Sanchez]

Jack says MacTavish has never had a hat trick......we know what's happening

 

[elmeroil]

Not many Western Conference teams go back to the SCF 2 years in a row. Pretty sure that's not happening this year. What a shame that terrible management is wasting this away.

Even the Av's got one, man this is ugly.

Well that would be a bad idea lol

 

[Ibanez]

If we lose this game in this fashion. You have to think heads roll and we are forced to get a goalie right?

Honestly not sure it matter. This soft team is an easy 1st out whoever we play.

Good grief

 

[29Beast97Mode]

Will we see a jersey on the ice tonight
