Post-Game Talk: Leon’s HOA

[Drivesaitl]

Still a garbage defence behind them. Need to address that.

The best cure for some defensive liability is having the puck. Something the Oilers learned last season. I liked the way we pressured pucks yesterday and we're harder to get off it. But J Skinner and Nuge need to elevate. They've been contributing less.

I really hope they don't fall into the traditional "nice guy" trap with Ryan. "Can't send him down because he has a family! blah blah blah."

If he isn't cutting it, he isn't cutting it. Send him down if he's been surpassed.

Don’t think that will be an issue with KK. Sent J Brown down right after he had apparently just bought a house here.

Doesn’t stop KK from playing dermott even though he’s much worse than stecher

Also I just watched Leon's second, that move he made on the defenceman at the top of the circles is actually insane.

He knows that Skjei has to respect his backhand pass, so he fakes it and takes two strides and goes right the f*** around him. Unreal.

Was a fantastic goal. So was the first and the sublime assist to Arvid. You play against Drai and you have to watch the replays to know what happened and even then you know you can't stop it.

The Drai games against Detroit and Nashville were spectacular.

Finally getting to see the game (had practice and Trick or Treating with the kid last night) and nothing to add, just wanted to say WOW, what an absolute over the top bomb from Podz. I had no idea he could chuck 'em like that. That was a big boy throw.

Team is 5-0 when they fight, I guess they know what they need to do haha

Apparently in his eyes he isn’t worse. I don’t think he’s playing him just because , it’s that he thinks he’s at least comparable to Stecher.

No Connor, no problem!

We'll see. Before we all wet ourselves over this game, let's keep in mind.

- Nashville is a shit team so far this year, other than a couple outbursts
-it's the first game without McD and the team was probably jacked with adrenelin for that to show themselves worthy
-we traditionally beat Nashville in our sleep
-Lean owns that team


So, while I will enjoy the results and the win of course, let's not get carried away.

Missed the game, how did Philp look?

Cagullia we already know what he can do at this level.

Caggiula and Philp were great in a bottom six role imo

They seemed physical

Size is a big factor for Philp
