GDT: Oilers at Hurricanes | March 16, 3 PM | Fox Sports

[HisIceness]

I'm not saying he is 100% at fault but when you get down to it, he's probably the first to go.

 

[Wolfpuck]

What is our record in early afternoon games? It can't be good.

 

[Cardiac Jerks]

Haven't seen any games since the deadline. Has Loktionov been noticeable at all?

 

[tarheelhockey]

Are we surprised by this either? Kid was the same tool that kept giving Anaheim indications that he would sign and kept stringing Ducks management along, before saying "nah, **** this, I do what I want".

Man, I bet the fans in Anaheim have been giving him endless hell the past couple of years.

 

[Blueline Bomber]

I'm not saying he is 100% at fault but when you get down to it, he's probably the first to go.

Oh, I agree. I just don't think it'll change anything. If the players don't want to be coached, no coach in the world will make it happen.

 

[tarheelhockey]

Meh. He hasn't been bad, made decent plays here and there, but he hasn't made the team any better.

 

[daikan]

I think the only chance to tie this game now is Semin. No one else looks close.

 

[Wolfpuck]

I just noticed him whiff on a shot. He's right at home with this team.

 

[Wolfpuck]

lol swept by the Oilers

That should be grounds for ECHL relegation.

 

[tarheelhockey]

We just out Oilered the Oilers.

 

[gocanes88]

We so bad.

Oh well... IT'S TIME FOR THE BEST DAY OF THE YEAR!!!!!

 

[Wild Caniac]

This is the kind of loss that makes you want complete wholesale change.

Doesnt matter though, my team won big today. GO VIRGINIA!

 

[HisIceness]

Guys, we just got swept by BOTH Alberta teams.

Let that sink in.

Time for some changes around here.

Not sure, but I can't stand them as an STH that works weird hours since I'm in medicine. I already miss a good bit of some games en-route to the stadium after work, last thing I need is more games I just flat out can't make because JR and Karmanos would prefer to have it at 1PM or 3PM on a Sunday instead of at a normal 7PM start time.

 

[Identity404]

Did it ever occur to anyone that we really aren't much better than the Alberta teams???

 

[gocanes88]

Even my Polish girlfriend, who hardly watches hockey, knows what's up...

Me: We so bad
Her: Sadly, I have to agree

Doesnt matter though, my team won big today. GO VIRGINIA!

You're a UVA fan? Congrats... and THANK YOU!

We've basically had the same amount of "success" as them these past 5 seasons.

 

[rocky7]

beaten by Dallas freakin Eakins and the Edmonton Oilers.......twice. just so damn dull, no excuse.....just no nuthin......

 

[Wild Caniac]

I have been a Virginia fan since i was born in 91. I was at the game vs Syracuse and rushed the floor with the fans and team. I still remember seeing Anthony Gill jumping around with all the students after we crushed Syracuse. It is so refreshing to see UVA finally have a great year. Hoping for a 1 seed, but i'm fine with a 2 seed in the Raleigh bracket.

It goes to show how tough the west really is. The Oilers are actually 14-12 and something against the eastern conference.

#leasternconference.

The Oilers are not a tough team to beat. We just suck.

 

[Blueline Bomber]

On the positive side, we look like we'll be drafting 7th in this year's draft. And we've had some luck with that draft number recently.

 

[TheBigKahuna]

Looks like they may draft 6th at this point. Keep losing boys! Don't ruin it and get on a run now!


Ehlers? Dal Colle?

I saw more uncontested 3-on-2 breakaways during today's broadcast then I have seen in the past month of games.

I'm sorry, but the Oilers are a poorly coached, poorly constructed team.

Hall was both really fast and talented. Scrivens was excellent. Yakupov likes to take shots at odd angles. RNH was invisible. Perron was your only forward that seemed gritty and talented at the same time.
