GDT: Jays Coaching Couch - Game 2 - Oilers v Canucks - 8 PM SN, HNIC

[Kerberos]

So I havnt watched the oilers this year but if you had to chose which is the greater concern, the defence or goaltending, which one?

Offense, defense and goaltending.

yes

Woody better be losing his mind.

Woody clutched his pearls and even threw a Kleenex on the floor. He's raging.

A 15 minute group hug session should fix everything.

A canucks fan talking smack lol

Goaltending definitely. Team can play good defense especially after acquiring ekholm, but the goaltending is way too streaky

 

[TheNumber4]

Hmm maybe we should have tried to improve this offseason. Just a thought.

Until they show up and work, you can't even discuss this.

It's not defense or goaltending at this point. It's simply being out worked and being ok with it.

 

[BlackDogg]

See if you can get Heritage Mall back in a trade Ken.

Post of the month right there. Well done.

Boys are playing like they don’t give a crap. And it’s hard to watch.

 

[Shizuka]

K I’m not the only one that thought so

Struds is right. This team likely read news clipping about how great they are and it got to their heads, egos.

I mean, you could see that shit the last season or two. That sense of entitlement, the feeling that they don't have to work as hard as the other teams because they feel they can outscore their deficiencies... I don't see any fundamental change in their mentality or their preparation for games to last season. Slow starts, both in the season and within games, and then they finally scramble to put together some semblance of effort midway through the 3rd. That's how these clowns operate.

 

[GMofOilers]

We only gave up 7 shots, pretty defensive period to be honest. The problem is Skinner has another 700 save %

 

[PaPaDee]

Cant wait until we have 2 NHL goalies instead of 0.

Can’t see the goalie situation changing anytime soon

 

[BlackDogg]

This is the Oilers game strategy.

 

[nexttothemoon]

...maybe they are just not that good?

Hard to tip pucks if your stick is tied up

 

[Jimmi McJenkins]

This is dumb, they were both deflected pucks that needed to be better defended

 

[CycloneSweep]

...maybe they are just not that good?

Or maybe the Canucks are?

[Zerotonine]

Lol oilers been slow out of the gates the last 8 years. Dunno why any one sweating the first few games lolol

100%

This is an entitled group, and it’s been the primary concern for a while. They have the depth. Short one top 4D doesn’t make a team lose to mediocre junk like this

 

[nexttothemoon]

Ya Canucks could be a lot better than we assume they are as well.

 

[Ritchie Valens]

Should have brought Tochet in when the Yotes didn't renew him a couple years ago. Teach these buttons how to play D.

 

[CycloneSweep]

Lol oilers been slow outc of the gates the last 8 years. Dojo why any one sweating the first few games lolol

There is a difference between slow and looking absolutely horrible.

 

[Fixed to Ruin]

Easy choice is Kingsway.

Kingsway and 3rd to Calgary for future considerations.

Calgary has a abandoned mall. Probably would throw that in for cheap.

See if you can get Heritage Mall back in a trade Ken.

No. I have lived near there for 40 years and that mall sucked. Like really sucked. Especially when they had the petting zoo inside and the entire mall smelled like a barn.
