GDT: LIII | "On Repe-pe-pe-pe-peat" | Oilers @ Habs | 10:30AM | 2.12.23 | SNW

[BlackDogg]

This the worst game of the year?

 

[Sanchez]

Nice shot and nobody goes to front of net

 

[GMofOilers]

A few more big saves again for Allen

 

[Drivesaitl]

I mean for me, its a ( and I hate to say it) "visual" thing. he isn't skating, doesn't keep his feet moving and by extension he isn't involved in many dynamic plays, like say a Hyman or McDavid is.

All that being said, I don't get the hate in this game. I think people are seeing what they want to see. To think hes expendable or tradable is ludacris. Its certainly concerning to see people turning on him. Im on him for looking lazy and that's it. I think he is better than he has recently been showing.

Exactly. This. Thank you.

Just a day ago people on this board were trading Drai, a thread started on it, and tons of people saying Drai is so bad he should be screatched from the lineup. Its embarrassing to see the comments here.

 

[nexttothemoon]

Optimistically there's still plenty of time to wake up and make a game of this.

 

[Ibanez]

Allen is going to hasek us this game isn’t he?

 

[Duder54]

This the worst game of the year?

No, but it sure feels that way

 

[TGOSnipes99]

This team has basically looked like dogshit since that dumb a** All-Star break

Nothing like the team they were before

Keep throwing your two wonder boys out there Woody so you can get scored on some more

All talk. "These guys came back quick and practiced" lol. They looks like the two worst guys effort wise on this team since that break.

 

[NedPlimpton]

Right where we want them.

 

[VainGretzky]

He wasn't, pulju was.

McDavid and Kane caught out from McDavid turnover.

No Ryan was out there when they scored

 

[Ibanez]

This the worst game of the year?

Its definitely up there

 

[JeffSkinner53]

I thought that Nuge chance was way better due to the hype from Jack. That was lame.

 

[BlackDogg]

Call a timeout ffs, anything

 

[snipes]

This game is abysmal

 

[Ritchie Valens]

Allen's latest x-ray.

 

[Sanchez]

Ceci using 1 arm to hold.

 

[K1984]

Another defense optional game for Connor today.

 

[Drivesaitl]

Everyone is chirping McDavid too. Its ok to call out bad plays and laziness. It just happens a shit ton more to Leo

I haven't seen one McD chirp. Theres 200 Drai chirps in the thread after one period.

 

[Aaaaaaaaaaaaa]

No friend of mine. Again who are you?

A concerned citizen who is wary of others with misplaced anger issues.

Also, an Oiler fan since 1979, and a member here since 2009.

 

[Shizuka]

Gotta ask again.. how is this a team primed and ready for a successful playoff run? Lazy, disinterested 'superstars', completely disengaged throughout the lineup, and a team that continues, maddeningly, to play down to the competition when they should be crushing them.

An embarrassing display and further proof they still, to this f***ing day, have not figured out what they need to to be a championship team.

 

[PaPaDee]

Another poor effort.

 

[JeffSkinner53]

This game is abysmal

At least we have been good lately. One bad stinker of a game isn't the end of the world.

 

[The Safe Play]

I don't think we ever win until the top guys focus on the defensive side of the 5v5 game. I love them all as players but the team loves exchanging chances more than anything.

 

[gordonhught]

Let’s go oilers. Keep it going!

 

[Moregoalspls]

Montreal out playing is an understatement
