Post-Game Talk: Oilers are good at shootouts now?

[5 14 6 1]

That was an all time bad performance from the stripes

 

[Sra1974]

This team will still lose first round with this level goaltending. It’s sad to say that Mike Smith and Koskinen gave this team more reliable goaltending but it’s true. They atleast were streaky and could shut it down. Skinner is just always below average

Well if they can make some progress this season maybe there’s a roloson out there to be had at the deadline.

A lot that could be said about the end of that game and how it got to where it did, but I'm not gonna bother with any critiques on this one.

Get bent, Vegas.

[Ibanez]

He is the center version of Connor Brown.

I’m still holding out for brown (not for much longer) but yeah. Yeah…. Le sadness these two offensive voids

 

[Spawn]

Yay maybe let’s lock it down next time.

The team gave up 5 shots in the 3rd. They locked it down.

Stuart Skinner is just a joke of a goalie who is good for a shit goal against per game.

Congratulations on your 2000 game milestone Ken Holland. Now GTFO

 

[Leonardlizard]

Glad we got 2 points but wow. It's hard to not be hard on players like McLeod when it's those mistakes that cost games in the playoffs... Also easy to see how the team can get apathetic when they dominate and that happens.

Need a goalie and need to send a message to the young Mcleod by sending him away somewhere.

 

[Dradavich]

It's time.

 

[Jimmi McJenkins]

Draisaitl fought the puck tonight pretty hard, I'm glad the team could still get it done.

 

[Sra1974]

What I hate the most about tonight was I had a ticket for a suite but a stomach bug hit me on the weekend and so I passed on it….heah that would’ve sucked to be there.

It's worse than that. They only got 3 shots before they scored two.

And they were all from stone hand plugs.

 

[CycloneSweep]

Brown and McLeod need to be massively upgraded on

Still not as bad as the Carolina game but they sure came close to match the awfulness of that one.

 

[Frank the Tank]

Also, shame on you refs. Absolutely pathetic, dishonorable punks. Maybe some day this league will have integrity and respect what’s supposed to be the highest level of competitive hockey.

Shades of the playoffs, where in the middle of the series the Knights PK was so pathetic the refs stopped calling penalties against them (because it was pretty much an automatic goal for the Oilers).

 

[Drivesaitl]

f*** off Skinner. We get the win despite Skinner again being awful.

Vladar had a dozen harder stops to make last night. Vegas had negligible space and scoring chances all night but Skinner giving them a point. Just ridiculous goaltending. How can any team trust the goaltending?

if you watched the game last night you know how stark the contrast. Flames were awful giving Vegas tons of chances and they only got one. If Skinner was in Calgary net it would be double digits allowed last night.

 

[Da McBomb]

Darnell Coffee looking better out there lately. So good to have the real 97 back

 

[McTonyBrar]

I honestly think Skinner was good today. Maybe could’ve had the third goal but, other than that, he was very good. In overtime and the shootout

 

[kevy9999]

Yay!
Forgive me for not celebrating more after blowing a late 2 goal lead to a team that played the night before.

Who cares if they played the night before. That is such an over used excuse if you lose,especially this early in the year when you're fresh and all the luxury player have now. Plus they should be extra mad and pissed they lost last night and play better tonight.

 

[DrDrai]

As the team is made up right now, they aren’t it.

They might climb back into the playoff picture etc. but the same issues that plagued them in the playoffs still exist.

The NHL reffing is also the same, so there’s that too.

 

[Soundwave]

Will take the 2 points but it's becoming obvious that in a 7 game series against a team like Vegas or Colorado, you're not winning with Skinner in net. He's not going to deliver the big save when the team needs it.

 

[Duke74]

Draisaitl fought the puck tonight pretty hard, I'm glad the team could still get it done.

He was f***ing terrible tonight. Giving pucks away and bringing no offense. He’s been dogshit all year. We need him to get his head out of his ass pronto if we want to keep this shit rolling.

How was he awful LOL. The 3rd goal yes but how could any of our garbage goalies have been as good? Campbell sucks and Pickard is just as bad.

The "missed" high stick on Ekholm still pisses me off. Would've put us on a 4 min PP in the 3rd period of an elimination game.

The NHL doesn't make it easy on Canadian franchises.
