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

[dss97]

Try Arvidsson in Nuge’s spot on the PP, I’d like to see some different looks with a right shot in his spot. He can’t possibly do less than Nuge, who contributes nothing on the PP.

 

[McTonyBrar]

Knoblauch and Coffey's choices in our lines are confusing the hell out of me. IT's so frustrating. Why on earth are you putting BOTH of our puckmovers on one D pair?

Leon and Arvidsson were good together last game. WHY is Leon with Brown???

 

[Heavy Dee]

Put Bouchard in Nuge's spot and let Walman run the PP from the top.

 

[K1984]

Take the shot Connor.

Puck exits the zone, chase is on and Sabres get a make up call.

If I had a dollar for every time we deferred clean shooting looks only to either immediately or eventually just turn it over anyways I could retire.

If you’re just going to dick around anyways - shoot. The. f***ing. Puck.

 

[CrazyJoeDavola]

let walman qb, and have pooshart take 1Ts on that left side... bench poogent-slopkins

is it that hard to even try something? this PP is so damn perimeter, but we dont even do anything on the perimter but try and feed drai. It's a microcosm of how we play 5on5, too.

 

[MessierThanThou]

Walman and Bouchard on the same PP unit would be instant success... do it.

Skinner-McD-Drai-Bouch-WALLman

Try it, Knob. You know you wanna...

Sadly, Connor is humming on the PP today.

He’s refusing to shoot the puck and turns it over on 0% passes negating any benefit unfortunately.

 

[North]

I don’t know why coaches get so stubborn. It’s okay to try new things when the usual isn’t working.

Because Arvidsson is taking a shit each time he's been out there. He's been awful.

 

[nexttothemoon]

In close games it comes down to goaltending.

Which goalie is able to make the big save and which lets in a weak one...

Let's hope Skinner can be Good Skinner in the 3rd.

 

[Drivesaitl]

Oilers 2 Stuart Skinner 2

Sounded funny in my head.

 

[tfwnogf]

do they really have to show crybaby marchand twice during this game

 

[russ99]

Yeah Knoblauch is taking a cue from Woodcroft, not willing to try anything different, until it’s too late. He’s probably going to be schooled by a good coach in the postseason by line matching too.

 

[McTonyBrar]

Yeah when he's been out there with Janmark and friggin Jeff Molasses Skinner

I have zero confidence in this team right now.

The. f***ing. Sabres.

We'd be right there with them at the bottom of the league without McDrai.

 

[Drivesaitl]

I know they had the boards problem but jebus games are taking along time to play since 4nations. i know they increased the adds for that but ever since the games are preceding at glacial pace. So many add breaks and they come back and not ready to drop puck, constant delays.

NHL for awhile making a commitment to try to get games played with 2.5hrs speeding things along. This game will be 3hrs long. Its creeping up. So many delays getting pucks dropped and players ready at dot. Get your shit in gear NHL.

Arvidsson literally had a shift where the puck came to him and he fumble f***ed it so bad that he gave Buffalo a free zone clear and possession. Tuch scored 30s later. That was on Draisaitl's line.

Demotion deserved.

Yeah the first goal. I saw it. But the guy still was good last game. Punish the guy for a few shifts. But Leon with Arvidsson has a better chance of scoring than Leon and Brown

The stubbornness with the PP is mindboggling. nuge had 3 giveaways on that 2nd PP. He can do no wrong in the eyes of this coaching staff.

Baffling lineup decisions, coaches are just throwing people together and not sticking with anything for more than a few games. It's no wonder the Oilers look disorganized at times because a lot of these guys haven't played together. I can only imagine the mess Knoblauch puts together when Frederic and perhaps Kane returns. Frederic-Janmark-Kane? I wouldn't be surprised

Podkolzin is zero threat to provide anything offensive

Lol!!!

Frederic should be with Leon. Take Podkolzin off

Put Walman in Bouch's spot and Bouch in RNH's spot.

Let the one-timers fly.

 

[MessierThanThou]

We had 40 games this season and three playoff collapses out of six rounds to know what we had with Skinner. If you're surprised at this point...I have a wonderful new memecoin I'd like to tell you about! Hit me up if you want financial freedom and an early retirement!

Frederic should be with Leon. Take Podkolzin off

I feel like Podz was basically a placeholder for Kane. Frederic works too.
