Post-Game Talk: Holland dithers, Oilers lose

[TGOSnipes99]

Fire woodcroft.

How does he constantly flip from a system of a support system for breaking out, to hail mary passes.

Maybe the rejects on the ice are the culprits but Woody is a coward who doesn't make players accountable

 

[Mr Positive]

I get paid $5 million to sabotage my own team.

I am worried that he will do jack all. These rumors of him "trying" are overstating things. He's not serious

 

[Drivesaitl]

Choosing Yamamoto over Hyman is a decision that boggles the mind.

You can imagine what I was thinking on that one. It was f***, f***, f***...


What a pathetic performance by the oil. Pretty much gifted puck luck in first period and stake out 4-1 lead as nearly everything is going in. Then they do nothing the rest of the game and watch the RAngers come back. Fortunate to even get a point in this one. SOG 11-1 at one point in 3rd period with game on the line.

Once again so many things wrong with the team in this game, special teams actually managed to -1 on the night. They just don’t have the ability in any way shape or form to lock a game down. That’s on the d and the forwards.

Only redeeming part is how good Campbell was, absoloutely stole a point for the team.

 

[McJadeddog]

Desharnais is the best d-man on the team. Prove me wrong.

He is the only one that actually knows how to play defence, that is for certain

 

[CycloneSweep]

Why is Yamamoto still on this team? He’s terrible.

Him and Pulju need to go

 

[Ibanez]

I have zero faith in Holland successfully making a trade that actually moves the needle and gives this team a chance to win the cup. As-constructed they have no chance.

I love this team but I truly think they are a couple pieces away to really contend

Karlsson would be a start. But we need another decently rw

Need Kane to heal up. He’s been a ghost (although he came back super early so not surprised). That’s a terrible injury to come back from

 

[Tobias Kahun]

Desharnais is the best D man in the organization

Contracts and the politics around that make it so he can't play more

Yeah, okay.

Glad to see someone who doesn't understand usage and how being sheltered works.

 

[McSpecial DraiBlend]

This team needs serious defensive work. Stop dithering Holland. Teams ARE making trades before the deadline.

STOP PUTTING DRAISAITL IN THE SHOOTOUT WOODCROFT.

Coaching and management lost this game.

Leon's attempt was pathetic. Might as well just declined.

 

[TGOSnipes99]

La moves another point ahead of us

This immature team doesn't have it honestly. Too inconsistent

 

[Old Boys Club]

We need Jim Matheson vs Draisaitl redux, only this time I will side with JM. Draisaitl has been a f***ing joke this year, he's either playing injured or completely does not give a f*** anymore. It's pathetic seeing him coast around the ice and force the same f***ing risky plays every game.

 

[gordonhught]

Him and Pulju need to go

Yesterday.

 

[bellagiobob]

I’m assuming woodcroft just puts all the names in a hat to decide who shoots in the shootout. Only way it makes any sense.

Pretty sure he thinks that he can’t change the first three shooters. Like ever.

 

[Ritchie Valens]

I’m assuming woodcroft just puts all the names in a hat to decide who shoots in the shootout. Only way it makes any sense.

Except it's draft lottery style. There's 10 pieces of paper with McDavid's, Draisaitl's and RNH's names on it, everyone else gets their name in once.

 

[KCC]

Keep giving away points. f*** off Holland

Man, tonight was on EDM. They went up 4-1 and just stopped skating. They coasted all game after that even when the Rangers woke up and started skating. Never matched it. Plain and simple. But yes, Holland needs to get some defense because you need good defense come playoff time and this team gives up way too many chances.

 

[Drivesaitl]

Why 11-6 tonight? Is there no way we can get enough players dressed within cap? We send players down because kailer Yamanothing is back? WTF.

 

[CycloneSweep]

Yeah, okay.

Glad to see someone who doesn't understand usage and how being sheltered works.

His stats against elite comp is abysmal unfortunately

 

[Ibanez]

I don't get the shootout choices. That slow down before the shot doesn't work. I know McDavid scored on it before but it requires a perfect shot.

Also I know Kane has been cold but he should be shooting before Ryan and Yamamoto

Well ahead of Leon “the bomb” Draisaitl

Drai isn’t a finesse player like that. He’s a poor shootout choice

That slapper almost has a sense of “stop putting me in the shootout” vibe lol

 

[Tobias Kahun]

His stats against elite comp is abysmal unfortunately

Yup, and he only faces like 11% of his time against elites.

Extremely sheltered.

 

[LeonDraisaitl29]

Would not be mad if Yamamoto, Puljujarvi, and Foegle were all traded at the deadline

 

[dss97]

Can we bring Ebs back? At least we’d have someone who can score in the shootout

 

[Gunnersaurus Rex]

Not sure what option to pick...

Nurse or Woodcroft for not benching Nurse

It's Woodcraft. Continues to put 29 & 25 out in OT with 97. Same s3 shooters in the shootout.
Does he ever make any tactical changes? Must spend all his energy dying his hair

 

[McAsuno]

Why 11-6 tonight? Is there no way we can get enough players dressed within cap? We send players down because kailer Yamanothing is back? WTF.

Yeah, but he scored 20 goals last year! Not like he's one of the most useless players this season, but people will only choose to harp on Puljujarvi.
Both players can leave already.

 

[TopShelfGloveSide]

Losing 7 in a row after regulation is all coaching.

 

[Jumptheshark]

We blew a 3 goal lead
