GDT: Game #64: Oilers @ Sabres - 5 PM - SNW

[Mez]

Oilers are always so bad In Buffalo!

 

[GMofOilers]

The last postgame thread?

Nobody said that either.

Go back and read

 

[Mr Positive]

Jack Micheals making excuses for Skinner is starring to rub me the wrong way. Louie and Jack are not critical of this team at all. It starts to sound annoying

Before, it's about having kid gloves with the goalies because it puts unfair pressure on them. Now it's because we can't make a trade so we have to accept what we have

 

[MessierThanThou]

3 posts lol and they just need to shoot on Skinner

And it's the f***ing Sabres. That's the worst part.

Deadline day really unveiled the staggering number of idiots here.

 

[Drivesaitl]

That is such an Oilers period. 3 posts, 2 of which were on wide open nets and then Skinner lets in a goal on a terrible rebound on a shot from just inside the blue line.

Lets see if this team's still in a slump. The old Oilers would have had a period like that and then just kept pressing and eventually broke through filling the net.

Original shot was outside bubble where he released it but yeah, no way should turn into a goal. of course we have to hear Debrusk completely absolving Skinner and thats just a hard and heavy shot and with give anybody trouble yada yada. I don't believe you Debrusk.

It's Tage Thompsons bday too; you see the gift Skinner gave him?

Well happy f***ing birthday to him, he better thank skinner

 

[oobga]

The ones that get sent to the minors.

And the kind that will get Jeff Skinner in the press box for a week.

I'm a fancy f***. Mine all do it themselves. Humble brag.

I live in an area that ditched the whole idea over a decade ago.

Catch is now, all of a sudden the start times for everything shifts this time of year, so instead of the 6pm start, things start at 5 now

 

[5 Mins 4 Ftg]

Ekblad roiding it up but using the old “oops I took an injury recovery substance” excuse.

Now go test OV. Guaranteed he’s a roid monkey.

 

[Sanchez]

Well happy f***ing birthday to him, he better thank skinner

Happy Birthday dude!

Just a heavy shot that gave him the hand eye coordination of a 1 year old with the puck right in front of him (ignoring the epic fail with the glove to start). Happens to the best of them.

3 posts, multiple big saves from the other goalie.

Skinner with a dog shit rebound gifts the other team a goal.

What’s frustrating period

Makes you wish we traded for him, doesn't it?

Or even his backup...

There is a difference though, in the mega slump they had they look dreadful, the entire team, everyone single one except for Drai. The last few games some players have come around and look way better and the team appears to be playing together in ways they werent before.

Its means nothing if they dont win, but there are signs the team is out of the mega slump they were in.

Another terrible goal by Skinner. Should get first assist on it. Oilers completely dominating the game but losing 1-0 because Skinner is inept. He'd still be looking for that puck next period.

Credit to Buffalo fans. They seem to appreciate hockey and still supporting team through dark decades and even cheering on both teams (although Oiler fans in attendance too. Nice that they have Tage Thompson to cheer for. Special player, hope he stays healthy this time.

Your favourite player Connor Brown missed a wide open net.

If I'm opponents I'm just chipping and charging on Skinner anytime. lol at all the players hammering and shooting wide. you don't have to. just get pucks on net and gravy will be around.

Oilers probably get this back but Skinner sure makes life hard on club.

 

[Messrules11]

Nuge and Skinny, two of my favourite whipping boys, need another lash.

 

[K1984]

Lots of jump for the boys and a great start.

RNH doesn't clear the zone but instead decides to take the puck deep in his own zone? Near disaster.

Rebound control again a problem but the effort was there for the guys up front.

This play has been a cancer on our game. Nowhere to obviously move it, but rather than just clear the zone they retreat and it ends up being a problem.

RNH and Nurse are the worst culprits, but they aren’t the only ones. Emberson too lately. Bouch too.

 

[Murphinator]

Happy Birthday dude!

Thanks. Not very happy rn though. This team affects my mood too easily. Ugh

Same story for 3 years now. Worst goalie in the league

 

[yukoner88]

This team couldn’t score on a five cent hooker.

Only cause pennies don't exist anymore

 

[Drivesaitl]

Your favourite player Connor Brown missed a wide open net.

I missed the first minutes of the game as my PVR f***ed up. Lately if theres any glitch in stream it stops. ffs. Heard there was a nice anthem singer too. Maybe they'll be highlights. I could do without seeing Connor Brown. EVER!

Skinner better not be the goalie next year.

Mind you the way this organization, scouts and acquires goaltenders were going to wind up with another Jack Campbell

 

[McFlyingV]

So Ekblad's a cheater is he?

 

[Sanchez]

I totally understand. Hopefully they f***ing turn it around. I'll have a beer in your honor!

You and me both.
