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

[KeithIsActuallyBad]

It was nice having good Nurse for like a month.

Now he's back to normal.

 

[Ritchie Valens]

I’m loving this blowout to a supposed “shitty” Ducks team.

If this doesn’t swing the push for a goalie, nothing will. If they don’t get one by the deadline, I’m checking out for the season. I already did it for the first few months, it’s quite easy.

 

[Ibanez]

No that game was hideous.

Shit. So we are going back to January

Yikes

 

[MessierThanThou]

This team may be worse than the decade of darkness rosters.

Give me any one of Dubnyk, Garon, Scrivens right now over what we got...

 

[McTedi]

This team may be worse than the decade of darkness rosters.

Not even close

 

[Canovin]

What would it cost for the Lacombe kid?

 

[Murphinator]

2 points out of 14 in our recent games.

 

[McHelpus]

When was the last non-ugly game this team played... I legit can't remember.

The 6-2 win against the Canucks

 

[russ99]

Lesser groups came together as a team and were successful in the postseason.

But I don’t see any urgency to do so, both from coaching and player leadership.

 

[Oilhawks]

Holy f*** I just realized we scratched skinner again. I didn’t even notice

What a garbage brain dead coach we have

Knob is overrated junk

 

[MessierThanThou]

LaCombe teaching Janmark how to play...

Knob is overrated junk

It's crazy how the entire team is apparently at fault before him. I mean I can agree with the goaltending, but after that? At the end of the day it's his job to motivate these players.

 

[Ibanez]

Not to pile on the guy too much because he’s been good this game

But McDavid not scoring in 8 games is just such an omen to the larger problem.

No one other than drai pissing a drop of offence latelty

And one of the few other guys that is (skinner) sits ever second game

 

[Canovin]

Draisaitl trying to get his team a new goalie tonight lol.

“It’s Skinner, I’m not going to try”

 

[NeverForget06]

This team may be worse than the decade of darkness rosters.

lol

 

[McTedi]

What would it cost for the Lacombe kid?

How much does something cost when it's not for sale? Way too much

 

[Pass the Saitl Sauce]

Give me any one of Dubnyk, Garon, Scrivens right now over what we got...

Is Koskinen still a UFA?

 

[KeithIsActuallyBad]

The Hurricanes should be embarrassed for losing to this team.

 

[McFlash97]

Everyone keeps blaming goaltending. We have more problems than just goaltending. We have an atrocious lineup. Defense and depth. Old. Slow, prodding team. Ekholm is done. Ever since sweden benched him, hes lost all confidence on top of that. Bouchard is one dimensional. The 2-1 loss last year was the end of our cup window. Were done

 

[Canovin]

Not going to lie, these little small trade feels like Chia last season as Oilers GM moves

 

[McTedi]

Is Koskinen still a UFA?

Kosk was worse than either Pic or Skinner. You guys have a short memory

 

[russ99]

But hey, we’re leading in shots and that’s all that matters…

 

[NeverForget06]

Not going to lie, these little small trade feels like Chia last season as Oilers GM moves

I still have PTSD from that Brandon Manning trade to this very day

For all the talk about how this team was supposed to be able to score it really feels like only one player can actually produce offense.

And he's done that at both ends of the ice today.

Had a couple of good hot streaks but his cold ones were horrific

 

[CrazyJoeDavola]

Goaltending is the obvious one but our offensive depth is absolutely putrid, all these old useless players with NMCs while other organizations are enjoying the better, younger players we drafted, developed and discarded makes me sick. Unbelievably poor organizational management.

We don't even generate offense anymore. We used to be porous defensively but still be able to fly and create chances. Now was just chip the puck out, do nothing, and bleed chance against.
