Post-Game Talk: Oilers suffer from narcolepsy again to start the season

[Cloned]

Fancy passing isn’t the way forward. Brutal.

Gonna have to find a defenseman and hope Skinner finds his game.

This team.....

Can "WAKE UP, THE SEASON’S STARTED!" be the title of every GDT until they actually do?

 

[Jimmi McJenkins]

Not great, they better show up tomorrow

At what point do we give Brad Hunt Josh Brown a chance?

 

[CROTT]

 

[Dradavich]

No need to panic Knoblauch's coaching career will be sacrificed after we go 1 - 10 - 1 so we can get another shot at both the win streak record and the cup. It's all part of the plan trust the process!

 

[5 14 6 1]

In 2 games we have given up 11 GA on 40 shots against and are 1/6 on the PK

 

[bellagiobob]

Two games in and we are already playing McDrai 24 minutes a night. With nothing to show for it.

 

[Faelko]

Pathetic, shoot them all into the sun.

 

[Bryanbryoil]

No physicality, poor goaltending, PK and defense. Not even remotely good enough.

Pickard also let in a couple of stinkers

I’m pretty sure Bowman is looking at Connor Murphy right about now.

 

[CycloneSweep]

Quenneville come on down.

[McHelpus]

?

 

[Shathar]

Once again the mistakes are huge ones. Much like some of the GMing decisions over the last few years. Huge.

 

[foshizzle]

Nuge sucked in the playoffs 5v5 and he continues to suck now. He can’t win a board battle to save his life. Swap him and Henrique

 

[Tobias Kahun]

Pretty clear that McDrai are coach killers at this point.

 

[Soundwave]

On the bright side Jeff Skinner and Arvidsson are good players, both caused the penalities that led to our goals, Skinner shot gave Perry the rebound chance, Arvidsson created a disallowed goal but it's more than anything anyone else is doing 5 on 5 and an Oiler actually battling net front.

I'm good with these two.

McDavid, Draisaitl, RNH, Hyman, Bouchard are plainly still stuck in last June's Finals and aren't mentally in the game right now. How long they want to drag this out is up to them.

Nurse is up his own ass, but that's another story.

 

[Cloned]

Quenneville come on down.

It’d feed the narrative.

Kane, Bowman, Quenneville. All the lightning rods.

 

[Ibanez]

Weird game…

We had some good shifts but we are getting zero bounces and everything around our net goes in.

Feels weirdly like last year.

Pk won’t stay that bad forever. They will figure it out. This is some outliers stuff

Weird to call tomorrow a must win. But man does it feel that way.

McDavid trying to do it all himself. Hyman looking slow. Nuge looking like a ghost. I would shake up that first line.

Not enough effort but we also had a ton of bad bounces against and our goalie wasn’t great.

Hopefully the boys are angry tomorrow.

This team looks bored and slow.

He was awful

Come on dude it's been 2 games
