Post-Game Talk: Montreal - where the people are beautiful and Oilers hockey is ugly

[Ritchie Valens]

Sad--like watching a porn flick starring Roseanne Barr.

And somehow it’d be still more entertaining than the Oilers.

 

[iCanada]

What a dog shit performance.

Just got out worked. Entire team should be embarrassed except for Pickard.

Now we get ready for Skinner to shit the bed tomorrow. Love this team.

 

[5 Mins 4 Ftg]

I can date your daughter tho rite?

No. That’s also on my tombstone.

 

[FanOfSadTeam]

Really got screwed by losing Holloway and Broberg.

Classic Oilers. Can't have things go right for too long

 

[Drivesaitl]

Naw those two are just as stupid with their on ice play

They were both bad and ineffective tonight. Overplaying against relentless Habs defending. With defense of Drai who does he have to work with. Podkolzin shouldn't even be in the league. What a complete bust. Why we giving this fool 20 games?

 

[MoontoScott]

And somehow it’d be still more entertaining than the Oilers.

You are a sick man but I like you.

 

[Jimmi McJenkins]

Pathetic performance all around.

The leadership group should lean on management soon.

 

[Reasonable Oil Fan]

I wonder if our age shows itself in the 3rd period. I imagine that wouldn’t be an issue with those fast young uns we lost.

Well
After last year, so many pegged us as a favourite. It’s like they didn’t see that we got older, lost some important pieces to our defensive game and took on pieces that others didn’t want
Yeah
I’m saying we got worse


At least we have that 16 game winning streak to look forward to just like last year
Right?

 

[Niten Ichi Ryu]

0 or 2 on Amazon Prime. Correct me if Im wrong, but didn't we face New Jersey and lost 3-0 as well? Lol you can't make this sht up. Zero goals in 120 minutes of ice time broadcasted by Amazon. If we get shut out again next Amazon game, I think we all need to get together, in a chanting cult like circle to alleviate the curse

Poor Calvin, the team keeps letting him down

 

[nexttothemoon]

Kulak would likely be their best winger.
Not joking.

 

[CanadasTeam99]

Ty Emberson getting the least 5v5 TOI when he had the best shot metrics and XGF is hilarious. I think a lot about the Philip Broberg interview and his comments about this organization and young players.

 

[KeithIsActuallyBad]

A team with this much supposed firepower shouldn’t be getting shut out. Or this bad offensively.

 

[McSpecial DraiBlend]

Je ne peux pas. Skinner est en train de chier en ce moment.

À partir de maintenant, nous ne nous répondrons qu'en français jusqu'à ce que les pétroliers gagnent 5 matchs de suite.

 

[Cloned]

No. That’s also on my tombstone.

I’m in charge of engraving so some things might be omitted.

 

[Shizuka]

Trusting in f***ing nepo baby bowman, who was gift handed his role as a GM and didn't earn shit, and jackson, who decided not to sign the offer sheets and made bad bets on Skinner and an Arvidsson coming off a pretty serious injury.. it's a foolhardy exercise. Never mind the absolute shite drafting and development, that has been a black hole of this organization for years...

We are seeing the consequences now, betting heavily on 'vets' with no young guys pushing up and challenging for spots. Further exacerbated by the plundering of draft capital to go 'all in', whatever the f*** that was supposed to be, and this is what we see -- lazy, entitled, unmotivated veteran lineup completely comfortable knowing their spots are all but locked in. No young guys to plug in and push them, players hungry for opportunity and not taking anything for granted.

They are going to lose tomorrow too in all likelihood. Embarrassing effort tonight, to the point where public mouthpiece stauffer was ripping them to shreds and that was only in the second intermission. Are they going to change the f***ing coaches yet again, and further demonstrate their organization wide incompetence yet again for the hockey world to see? We'll see.

Come my friend. Let us be sad together.

This season sucks.

 

[CanadasTeam99]

Boston has good culture. No practise tomorrow. Probably be moves or coach firing

 

[LevelingSolo]

Bob Stauffer ripping the team to shreds along with the urgency, the players, lack of heart and no soul. He pretty much called out management for not letting young players have a chance to play over guys like Perry and Ryan.

I've never seen him go this ham on the team in a long time

Someone must have given him the go ahead to do so

 

[MoontoScott]

Ryan has 1 point in 17 games. Probably won't score all season.

Podz is a hard worker but shouldn't be in the top 6. Some posters keep asking, why not put Henrique on a line with Drai. He can score and still has something left in the tank.

 

[OilfaninTO]

Why trade for Savoie if you’re not gonna give him a chance? We need youth. Bad.

 

[OfCorsiDid]

Should be Holland but close enough.

Can I offer you a meme from the summer of 2021?

 

[Drivesaitl]

Since when is Montemblaut a "plug goalie" jebus the stupid comments. He's a franchise goalie in the making. Spectacular whenever I see him. Give his whole team hope in playing in a defensive structure and just trying to bag a goal.

Would trade several players on this club for Montemblaut. Would drive them to the airport. Please f*** off Connor brown.

 

[CantHaveTkachev]

this team needs a shakeup but have no cap and precious assets to get it done

can Accrued Cap Space play on the PP?

 

[Oilhawks]

 

[KlefDown]

People talking about wanting 50+ goal Drai and McDavid back…

I’m afraid we wasted those seasons while we were “rebuilding”, even generational talents can’t pull 50 goals out their ass in this league. Those days are gone
