GDT: Game #71: Stars @ Oilers - 8 PM - SNW

[yukoner88]

This is the first broadcast I've watched in months.

Do they do these fluff pieces every game?

 

[aggressive forecheck]

Not really, but sure. Did you miss how many pucks he successfully moved out of our zone?

Bouchard sucks, man. He really sucks. I don't care if he can pass nice because he sucks so much. He can't even shoot anymore. Look at him without McDavid and Draisaitl. Have a really long look.

 

[MoontoScott]

Yah I get it, I just found the criticism harsh considering the epic collapse on defending. Disappointing considering a relatively sound period and then to give Dallas that.

You have to play almost air tight defense in front of him and that isn't going to change.

 

[Moregoalspls]

I'm sick and tired of the defence of Bouchard's defense. I'm really tired of it. It's as old as the Kulak is the man bullshit. These are the two losers who should have been sent packing.

I don't think anyone defending him, but sending him packing is definately hurting the team

If you think Bouchard sucks at hockey then you clearly don’t understand hockey.

 

[29Beast97Mode]

Weird promotional ad. Everybody is already an oilers fan.

 

[KeithIsActuallyBad]

You win a for the worst takes in hockey.

Awesome, glad we're winning something here.

 

[Drivesaitl]

Pretty good period all things considered besides a bad change and a nice chip in from Dadonov

Trouble with Dallas is the way they play they will have one feeling out period, but somewhere in the game they will have a redhot period where they are making transitions and plays for fun. Its what they are, often in same game. When they get rolling its some heat.

 

[Stud Muffin]

Really good period other than Bouch f***ing up

Tell me how Ekholm/Perry not taking there man is Bouch’s fault? That’s an idiotic Take on that play.

 

[Pip]

No it isn't. We gave up one scoring chance in the period. Dallas gave up 6 or 7. Which is inexcusable?

its hockey, plays happen, reverses happen, sometimes you're caught. Bang bang play to Johnson who is quick with hands and punishes. You cant play any tighter than the Oilers did in that period.

It’s insane to see some expect complete perfection in front of Skinner. Breakdowns and bad bounces happen, that’s why you have a goalie. Even the best defensive teams give up multiple grade a looks every game.

This is the first broadcast I've watched in months.

A lot of hype and silly stuff in today's NHL broadcasts. They don't tend to start on time either??

How so. Do you realize how much posters are thinking he should earn on his next contract? It's time to move him during the offseason. The Oil have to make the right call for once.

 

[Moregoalspls]

Is Talbot the best goalie we've had in the latest 15 years? Smith, Dubnyk?

 

[KeithIsActuallyBad]

Didn't this team score 5 on Oettinger the last time we played them? We aren't that hopeless offensively, are we?

 

[soothsayer]

That government of Alberta commercial .

 

[CycloneSweep]

How so. Do you realize how much posters are thinking he should earn on his next contract? It's time to move him during the offseason. The Oil have to make the right call for once.

The right call on someone is to move on from a good player who is not even a full year removed from one of the best offensive playoffs from a defender ever? Not even taking into consideration how good he was defensively last playoffs too? Yeah?

 

[Drivesaitl]

Didn't this team score 5 on Oettinger the last time we played them? We aren't that hopeless offensively, are we?

This looks like OTTs on night. Too bad.

 

[Sanchez]

Tell me how Ekholm/Perry not taking there man is Bouch’s fault? That’s an idiotic Take on that play.

Agreed seeing it again. Overall really good period from Oilers.

 

[Heavy Dee]

That must be the only suit Bob owns. Or the only one that fits.

 

[OilynutEsquire]

They should try Walman on PP1

 

[aggressive forecheck]

The right call on someone is to move on from a good player who is not even a full year removed from one of the best offensive playoffs from a defender ever? Not even taking into consideration how good he was defensively last playoffs too? Yeah?

that was clearly the anomaly... watch the player without McDrai, he's brutal outside of a couple nice passes up the middle... without McDrai he won't rack up the freebies

He's certainly not worth 10M

 

[McTedi]

No it isn't. We gave up one scoring chance in the period. Dallas gave up 6 or 7. Which is inexcusable?

its hockey, plays happen, reverses happen, sometimes you're caught. Bang bang play to Johnson who is quick with hands and punishes. You cant play any tighter than the Oilers did in that period.

Oilers played great until then. Thought it could have been defended better. I’m not defending Skinner anymore though lol.

 

[CycloneSweep]

That must be the only suit Bob owns. Or the only one that fits.

Only one without Royal Pizza stains.

 

[KeithIsActuallyBad]

This looks like OTTs on night. Too bad.

I'm tired of the "We got goalie'd" excuse. That's not going to fly anymore.

This team needs to go to the dirty areas.

 

[Pip]

This looks like OTTs on night. Too bad.

Side note. Oettinger is a legit goalie but in my mind quite overrated. Has fallen apart too many times for my liking.

However id still give my left nut to swap goalies.
