Post-Game Talk: Oilers def. Canucks in season opener, 5-3 (Pettersson, Miller, Kuzmenko)

[Breakers]

Edmonton is pretty trash when McDavid isnt on the ice

 

[andora]

Boy .. these game day threads are poisonous..christ

 

[Kryten]

Soft physically and mentally

 

[BWJM]

Might as well rub a McDavid hattrick into the wound. Thanks Sutherland you dumb f***.

 

[LordBacon]

Guys I dont think we're winning the cup this year.

 

[Vector]

Of course they play Sweet Caroline! Ugh.

 

[Canucks LB]

I know it’s one game, but blowing a three nothing lead.

is absolutely infuriating

 

[Green Blank Stare]

Goddamn, what a terrible loss to start the season.

 

[Sedinery]

Schenn was lost out there. Oilers left him in the dust

Time to get Rathbone in there

 

[TruGr1t]

Hey, I remember this team now.

 

[wonton15]

Can someone ask Bruce what Joshua was doing all night? There was zero response and a benching

 

[iFan]

blow it up and rebuild

 

[quat]

I'm not sure which team I like less. The troop of Oiler Theatrics or the tired Canucks.

Glad to see Pettersson is pissed and having none of it. What's Horvat up to I wonder?

 

[bbud]

We need a f***ing #1Dman is the point I am trying to make. We have a team that has a borderline #2 guy and a bunch of bottom pairing caliber shit.

Huhges is a one dimensional player too often that said hes paid like a 1 gotta be better is all i said

 

[supercanuck]

Wow! This is quite the disappointing way to start the season

 

[Jumptheshark]

and that is why I dont think you win a Cup with Hughes as your #1

Hughes is one of the best young D in the league--once he develops a little more he will be a killer

 

[Baby Pettersson]

What a humbling experience. Don't worry guys. Nucks have heart. This is our season!

 

[Breakers]

Re-signing Boeser to that contract will be the biggest mistake Allvin will make over his tenure. It's a bad one.

They’ve doubled down on this entire roster despite saying they should retool.

 

[quat]

At least they've fixed the issues the PK and PP had last year. Or they're thinking about it I mean.

 

[rypper]

Read through this thread (at work) has been like reading the unhinged ramblings of a schizophrenic bipolar.

Up and Down, up and down. Mood Swings.

Tons of special teams tonight.

Also, who cares? How many posts do you need about the least important player on the team?

 

[heatedskates]

Need to trade Horvat for a defensemen if possible. I'd try and move Boeser probably too. I think two D would help this team more. Kuz and Podkolzin make it possible to do it.

 

[JumpierPegasus]

0-82 pace, what a nightmare!

 

[Jumptheshark]

the team played good--Demko needed to make a few big saves earlier in the game

 

[Pastor Of Muppetz]

Hard lesson ...Blowing a 3-0 lead, and losing the game...Special teams looked like last year...Basically, a collapse..good teams dont do that..Bruce still has a 'work in progress' here.
