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

[Oilslick941611]

Just turned the TV on and saw Connor Brown miss a wide open net and then saw Skinner fumble a puck right to the tape of Thompson who scored a floater over him.

I’m not sure what the deal is with the Sabres and the Oilers but this is one team we never seem to be able to beat.

I guess this is one of the teams they think they can just put their skates, on throw on the jerseys, go out and skate a few laps and expect the two points.

Team is actually playing pretty well, unlucky, but they are skating circles around the sabres.

It’s amazing that management and oilers media can’t or refuse to see the obvious. Skinner is not an nhl starter.

Don't forget a lot of really stupid people on this board.

Mcdavids and Drai fault we are losing 1-0

Hfoil logic

It's actually the coach.
Stop instructing thdm to hit the post!

Three friggin posts

Making a 0.890 goalie look like Hasek. Classic

Routine beer league save, all I'm doing is laughing at this point. What other NHL starting goalie does what Skinner just did, wow!

3 posts and a Skinner stinker. Just another Oilers game

A modern Oilers hat trick.

Happy f***ing birthday to me. f*** you skinner and f*** you posts

Frustrating period.

 

[Spawn]

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

 

[McDoused]

To be fair the xGA is 1.03 and Skinner let in 1. So I'm happy with Skinner that period. Maybe that's a low bar but whatever.

absolutely disgusting rebound. skinner deserves to be waived

Wasn’t even just the rebound. Farts it out then casually thinks he’s just gonna flick it into his glove that was the most offensive thing about it.

 

[KeithIsActuallyBad]

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

Don't forget a lot of really stupid people on this board.

I’m one of them and even I know Skinner sucks

I wouldn’t be surprised if he’s out of the league in a year or two.

ah crap. You inspired me to watch the goal again, kinda missed it. Yikes

beast at mario kart tho

 

[MoontoScott]

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.

Yeah, I only caught the last five minutes and it looked pretty even. Too bad that Bad Skinner showed up for net tonight.

 

[TB12]

Absolutely dominate the period and down 1-0. f*** sakes.

 

[OfCorsiDid]

Read the last PGT

The last postgame thread?

Nobody said that either.

The ones that get sent to the minors.

I mean, not quite one. Also 0.33 of our xGA are literally from Skinner giving up dog shit rebounds.

 

[McFlyingV]

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.

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.

Happy f***ing birthday to me. f*** you skinner and f*** you posts

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