Post-Game Talk: Oilers fail to DIG IN. 6-5 Panthers

[barkovcanfinnish]

I think we’re going to be relying on our offense until Zito can find a good deal for an upgrade at defense.

Bob has been very meh this season, and Knight has been really struggling in his last few starts. One of them needs to step up or our attempt at a repeat is gonna be blown into pieces.

My hope is that Bob has shown in back to back playoffs he can turn it on for most of the run.
Curious to see how they handle his work load as he is over 36, and it seems no matter how well in shape players are in they are more bound for those minor injuries as they approach 40

They need to give Spencer more starts and keep Bob fresh for the playoffs. Then hopefully he goes God mode once again.

Is this road trip over yet?

Nope, crap. Expecting loss to the Wild.

We gotta at least make the playoffs

why not start ekblad at goalie?

 

[WaitingForThatCab]

He's really obviously trying to direct it in with his stick and it clips off of his skate because he misses. Goals disallowed for kicking are rare and typically need to be pretty blatant.

IDK. I'm surprised they didn't call goaltender interference.

 

[Dread Clawz]

Lol that was not a kicking motion at all.

We gotta at least make the playoffs

Lol we're 10 points up on the wildcard and have played one of the toughest schedules yet .

That’s the trick. We gotta throw food at Ekblad when he does something good

Lol at the thread title.

Lol at the thread title.

The best is Paul in his presser where he said it at least 3 times about his boys!

Had to read Oilers GDT. Got thrue 2 pages. Apparently we cheated and Barkov slashes and hooks 200x a game

I really doubt that Knight can take more games. Not with how bad the team is playing defensively in front of him.

He's got to if he's gonna become anything. Sink or swim, at least we'll know.
