Post-Game Talk: Oilers score 5 goals and an ENG without McDrai

[Drivesaitl]

Canucks lost tonight, no way they will catch the Oilers now.

Flames win tonight to keep their hopes alive. They have been one of the surprises in the league this year. They won't catch the Oilers but credit them for hanging in there.

The Canucks won't even catch a playoff wildcard spot. Maybe they catch a flu.

Who is the tall guy with the tie standing next to Mc-D?

 

[Tobias Kahun]

They won so not sure where the 'problem' is.

It was close.

When you cheered against the Oilers it wasnt close.

Who is the tall guy with the tie standing next to Mc-D?

Trent Frederic.

Nucks and Lames don't need to catch Oilers.. they just need to catch Blues..
With a 10pt lead Oilers aren't missing the playoffs.

Stan Bowman on after hours when when talking about a possible McDavid contract extension in the summer.

"He's the most important player we have here. That is priority #1. We'll get to that this summer. Now's probably not the right time to talk about that but we all know that Connor's gonna be here and we're gonna make it happen"

Incoming 20x8 contact!

Fantastic game from everyone not named Nurse and Walman. Possibly the worst pair against the rush I can ever remember.

Please, coaching staff - please don’t let this pair be a thing where they hang 1-3 goals against per game but we are still addicted to playing them regardless. Please. Just break it up before it actually costs us.

Lolol yeah Skinner was a stud for sure

Fking pronger Lindstrom pairing would look brutal infront off Skinner ffs

 

[AM]

Or maybe Nurse can check his man, or Ekholm not block out the sun? Goaltending in the NHL is as much about the 200ft game as the person in net.

A lot of posters looking for the easy blame victim rather than the sobering fact that this team is terrible at net front and slot coverage.

The posters looking for a negative will make sure their whipping boy is in the crosshairs.

.895 lol

Leons bodyguard. Funnier answer.

Off topic, but next season, Nuge will be 32 and over 750 points. He's under contract for 4 more seasons, and can probably score another deal before retirement. Does he get to 1000?

Nuge is still 27 in vampire years. He will be signing another 5yrsx5 deal after 4 season.

 

[iCanada]

.895 lol

Skinner wishes.

 

[Soundwave]

What's the deal with Rodrigue in the AHL anyway? His numbers in the previous two seasons were not that bad, is the team just that much worse defensively this year?

 

[LTIR]

.895 lol

How many bad goals were let in? Something that Pickard would've saved

 

[KeithIsActuallyBad]

Nah, Skinner totally bailed us out. Should[ve been 1st star tonight.

Since we are going with hyperbole, the team played an airtight defensive gem and management knows what they’re doing. They will crush the Stars with no effort.

We lost Sylvain Rodrigue, the guy who made Skinner look remotely NHL capable.

 

[TopShelfGloveSide]

That picture of our boys in suits waiting to congratulate the team. That’s a helluva a lot of fire power. The Calvary is coming.

He lost his net on the 3rd goal, he could have used his brain on the 4th goal and read the play to bat that puck away instead of just watching it go across his crease.

 

[BlackDogg]

Nuge was huge!! Stu's goaltending is giving me PTSD.

‘The Warrior’ called 880 ched post game show…

[McShogun99]

It’s a 5-4 league when Skinner is in net.

 

[oXo Cube]

Canucks are gonna miss the playoffs lmfao

 

[KCC]

.871 save percentage for Skinner tonight. Dude is incapable of an over .900 number. He's going to cost this team so many games in the playoffs again. All we can do as fans is hope Pickard plays the majority because I sure as heck trust him more.
