GDT: Game #63: Stars @ Oilers - 8:00 PM - HNIC

[Mr Positive]

So… Walman with Nurse. On the right side. How’d it go guys?

I thought he was a complete beast

I bet we try him on the left too, but it seems obvious to roll with him there, as that has been the open spot we've been rotating players into. He might solidify himself there and make the top 4 in stone

 

[MessierThanThou]

Said it before say it again...McD was coasting this season for playoffs. He definitely doesn't look like a player w an injury

Oh boy you’re completely out to lunch.

So… Walman with Nurse. On the right side. How’d it go guys?

Calm down. He made a stellar pass and looked good but he also fell leaving a 2 on 1 that luckily didn't happen.

That said, he's a much needed player for Nurse

 

[Bumblebee Man]

Oh boy you’re completely out to lunch.

Your hockey analytics are terrible so there's that

 

[dssource]

Leta see that dangerous 2nd period team.

 

[Pip]

Walman +3 and an apple in 20 minutes lmao

Took one period out of San Jose to get him into the positives for plus/minus haha

 

[CycloneSweep]

Anyone have a video of that walman pass?

 

[McDoused]

So… Walman with Nurse. On the right side. How’d it go guys?

I thought he was a complete beast

Their fancies are ridiculous. Walmans at a 81.8 CF%, 85.7 SF%, 95.49, xGF%, 100 SCF%, 100 HDCF%.

 

[LTIR]

its a lot of things that have happened throughout the season, not just how he's handled Skinner

I don't think anyone is screaming Knob to be fired or anything, I'm just saying every decision he made last year seemed to have went right for him, and a lot of decisions this year haven't. regression was bound to happen, all I hope is he gets this team going the right way seeing how we are well into playoff push and top seed territory.

So what exactly has gone wrong from coaching perspective? Is it coaching that McDavid, Hyman Nuge and Ekholm have regressed? Is coaching suppose to make Skinner stop muffins?
Does he love playing kapanen as C?
He has no need for Skinner.
Kapanen was team leaders in hits. Hyman was 3rd highest for forwards before adds from BOS.

Knob has done a good job with players provided.

 

[KeithIsActuallyBad]

Can’t let up. Need more goals.

 

[oobga]

Yikes. One of our guys got clotheslined with an arm in the face and almost went bad into the boards.

 

[Behind Enemy Lines]

Liked that Arvy shot attempt. Followed the puck carrier and utilized as a screen. Puck didn't get through but like the shooting mentality and processor there.

 

[Pip]

Obviously a lot of attention on walman but I thought jones was noticeable in a good way as well

 

[KlefDown]

In the 4N he was flying thru the middle and boards. Then he got popped in the first US game 2x flying up ice.
After that he hung back

He's definitely been picking his moments all year

that describes the characteristics and play of a player who is injured

I literally play like this in my beer league games when my kness or shoulders are hurt

 

[BudBundy]

I know it’s a small sample size, but the Oilers forwards are actually charging hard to the net tonight and it’s so nice to see. After a couple months of them passing it around the perimeter, I hope they keep it up.

 

[oobga]

Podz. Dude. 33 is on your team

 

[MessierThanThou]

Your hockey analytics are terrible so there's that

By all means keep sharing your idiotic conspiracies only a six-year-old would seriously entertain.

 

[RattsSSV]

Oooh, that's gotta hurt.

 

[OfCorsiDid]

Looks like Nurse just nuked Lundell's knee.

 

[Pip]

Draisaitl line is cooking tonight

 

[TopShelfGloveSide]

Oh f*** me that would hurt

 

[oobga]

ouch. As Louie says he exposed an area that was exposed.

 

[KeithIsActuallyBad]

Inner thigh, not a great spot to get a puck.

 

[OfCorsiDid]

I mean I already like their approach to this game.

They're not overpassing, they're shooting. Aggressive on the forecheck.

 

[Jumptheshark]

good first period
