GDT: Late Night GDT for People Who Have No Wives - Edmonton @ Edmonton 2:00 PM MT

[larek]

WTF is with the atrocious defending today? Ryan and Bjugstad BOTH turned away and let the guy in the few feet to Skinner. Holy damn..

They didn't want to hit

 

[harpoon]

need defence more. espcially from the forwards, that was a 2 on 1 down low.

Like @Wreckus said, terrible line change. Yamamoto coming off the bench had no chance to get into the play. Seattle had the extra man.

 

[OfCorsiDid]

I know they're friends but I wonder if Connor ever thinks "man, Devin Shore is such a shitty hockey player"

Idk if he does. But I do.

Every god damn day.

 

[KCC]

Should have been a penalty on nurse. He’s having another awful game.

 

[Mr Positive]

The Kraken's whole thing is that they are a crazy deep team. So it will lead to shifts like that. They can mismatch with bottom sixes

 

[3IR]

Isn’t it a penalty when you remove a guys helmet?

 

[OfCorsiDid]

glad to see that the helmet rule is getting ignored.

 

[snag]

isnt it a penalty to rip a guys helmet off?

 

[Moregoalspls]

That 6'6" monster doesn't want to mess with nuge. He will get floored

 

[KeithIsActuallyBad]

Get a goal before the end of the period.

 

[CROTT]

Is this the last shitty matinee? Please

Nope, afternoon game against the Sharks April 8th is the last. I think Gary will make sure the Oilers play 30 afternoon games next year…

its not mutually exclusive. being good defensively also does mean making smart changes.

 

[VainGretzky]

Nobody wants to go with Nuge

 

[GhostfaceWu]

Wait Draisaitl wasn't 2nd in scoring last year, though.

U don't touch anyone let them go to net with no fear at all just stand their and watch them
That's on oilers

That’s why he ripped his helmet off. He knew it meant nuge had to leave the ice and couldn’t fight him

 

[gordonhught]

Go oilers.

 

[BlackDogg]

Kraken playing a very clean game

Very clean

 

[Oilhawks]

Yeah, just looked it up. Sigh. f*** afternoon games

I hope so, then they might be forced as an organization to figure this crap out. Every other team seems more ready to go, so it is on this team not the schedule

 

[Duke74]

29 sucks today

Too many Irish beers last night

 

[OfCorsiDid]

Jesus, idk what's worse the Oilers defence or the reffing. christ.

 

[gordonhught]

Louis is a Benedict Arnold.

 

[nexttothemoon]

Oilers have the lead and Seattle is an expansion team at home.


NHL rulebook is very rubbery in the flexibility of applying rules in those situations.
