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

[CantHaveTkachev]

Bouchard needed that

Yeah, I've never seen a shot from the high slot be stopped by a goalie....

I hope the Oilers get a chance that good tonight

 

[Messrules11]

Pull this turd man. This guy is horrific. One of the worst goaltenders to be a starter in this teams history.

I used to rip on Koskinen but Skinner makes him look pretty damn good these days

 

[CycloneSweep]

Tuch is a 16% shooter with 24 goals on the season so far and he walked right into home plate. Why don't the other goalies stop his nothing shots?

Did you even see what happened?

 

[OfCorsiDid]

That was a bullet. Nice rip by Bouch!

 

[CycloneSweep]

I don’t blame him for that goal. That close in, all the time in the world to pick your spot. That was a perfect shot. But you need your starter to make those saves and at times steal a game. He does neither.

He literally just had to slide to the side. Instead he hops like a toddler.

 

[GMofOilers]

4 more guys we have a chance yet

Not my fault skinner!

 

[CantHaveTkachev]

Did you even see what happened?

He was allowed a clear uncontested shot point blank?

 

[NeverForget06]

Not to get off the topic of Skinner but I do believe that Stetcher>>>Klingberg

Moneypuck has the scoring probability on Tuch's shot at 7.6%. It wasn't good dude.

 

[FiveFourteenSixOne]

Flailing around, losing his net at every turn.

That sequence was the most bush league, amateurish display of goaltending I've ever seen in the NHL.

f***ing guy slid so far he was 3/4 of the way out of his net, all while flailing around like someone replaced his skate blades with butter knives.

 

[Murphinator]

Take a shot every time you read "Skinner"

 

[Tobias Kahun]

He was allowed a clear uncontested shot point blank?

Are you really defending skinner after watching this game?

 

[MessierThanThou]

Nice to see the posters who thought management addressed their most pressing issues on deadline day are finally accepting reality. I guess anything is possible.

 

[LeonDraisaitl29]

If you have to score at the very least 4 goals to win, yet have statistically top ten defense, yeah, you need a goalie

 

[CantHaveTkachev]

Are you really defending skinner after watching this game?

No
That first goal was awful

 

[MessierThanThou]

Take a shot every time you read "Skinner"

It's a Monday night, dude! Jesus you're an animal...

 

[LeonDraisaitl29]

Nice to see the posters who thought management addressed their most pressing issues on deadline day are finally accepting reality. I guess anything is possible.

I defended Bowman, but I was wrong.

 

[Pip]

Jeff Skinner has had a few quality set ups tonight

 

[Not Canada Drai]

Take a shot every time you read "Skinner"

I would rather not die reading one page.

 

[nexttothemoon]

At least the team seems like it's getting some offensive mojo back again. It was always going to be a case of being able to outscore their mediocre goaltending.

 

[North]

I don’t blame him for that goal. That close in, all the time in the world to pick your spot. That was a perfect shot. But you need your starter to make those saves and at times steal a game. He does neither.

The first goal shows he can’t even make standard saves without giving up juicy rebounds.

 

[MessierThanThou]

If you have to score at the very least 4 goals to win, yet have statistically top ten defense, yeah, you need a goalie

Stats are for people who don't know hockey. Trust your eyes...and the people on TV and the radio who tell you how to think.

If we had a competent goalie coach we should've considered a change after the 1st. Like I can't expect the coaches on the bench to be exclusively watching the goalie, but after that 1st it was real clear that Stu was struggling again.

 

[Missing smitty]

Guess you need to watch more hockey. I can't help you there.

Guess I should have put /sarcasm for the obvious sarcasm?

 

[fireantz]

Its not mcdavids fault that skinner is the worst goalie in the league

On that play it was
