GDT: Oilers Vs Campbell's cat. - 5PM - SNW

[Captain Fantastic]

The Drai "wearable tarp" commercial curse continues...

 

[unicornBLOOD]

McDavid will be in the history book with worst production drop ever in league history.

no he won't. not if he get's healthy, injuries are the only thing that could hold him back. McDavid IS the best player in the world, I'm surprised how many people have forgot that.

 

[McDNicks17]

It'll wind up Nuge for Swayman, one for one.

With the way RNH is playing, you could take Swayman out of the deal and it'd still be a win.

 

[brentashton]

Maybe not, but we're sitting on our hands for what exactly?

A higher draft pick next June?

I guess I’d rather have an overall plan versus throwing ad hoc shit at the wall. This coaching change for Woody 2.0 is already evidence that this is gone south. They could have started to turn things with making an impactful coaching change with a veteran, with a deeper amount of experience. But they shot the wad on mid season rookie NHL replacement in a must win/behind the 8 ball season.

Macy saying the league has pretty much figured out top 6 out.

 

[Bring Back Bucky]

Man even commercials with kids in them make me angry if Colby Armstrong is in em.

 

[foshizzle]

Yeah I feel like we probably win more with the 11-7, I'm surprised everyone hates it.

Because it’s an over reliance on 97/29 and kills our depth scoring. It also tires them out

 

[Ibanez]

lol

How's pickard looking? I'm at work.

Playing the regular part of an Edmonton Oilers goaltender

 

[LTIR]

Trade Bouchard, trade Draisaitl....

Guys, take a look at recent comparables. We don't win those trades. We will get fleeced. If you trade either one, just blow it up.

Not necessarily. Depends on what you get back. Pesce or an Ekholm comparable on the right side instead of Bouchard should fix our D. Upgrade over Desharnais would be good as well.

A #2C or someone like Pageau/ROR should match what Drai brings at ES. PP will need a different sniper

Solid early. No chance on GA 1. GA 2 was soft by NHL standards unfortunately/

But the defence is doing f*** all.

 

[CycloneSweep]

If McDavid only gets 97 points, it’s the biggest drop ever.

 

[mkatcherin00]

I missed the entire 1st period.

2 - 2 is okay I guess.

Being even after 1 is ok on the road until you realize they blew a 2-0 lead and got their sh** pushed in and did nothing after their 2-0 goal lol. Trending down babay

 

[TopShelfGloveSide]

How's pickard looking? I'm at work.

Like the rest. Doesn’t make the saves.

 

[ElysiumAB]

Haha.

Its weird cause I actually really like his comments but yeah his voice /delivery still seems off.

Yeah, it just sounds so strained, like someone giving a speech that half lost their voice. Hard to listen to. His words are fine, a little disjointed, but whatever.

Why the change from Louie?

 

[LeonDraisaitl29]

Like the rest. Doesn’t make the saves.

Ffs

 

[Bring Back Bucky]

Wayne and Connor can both f*** off with those stupid gambling ads while they are at it.

 

[unicornBLOOD]

If McDavid only gets 97 points, it’s the biggest drop ever.

if he plays 70 plus games, I'd bet the farm he crushes 97 points.

 

[TopShelfGloveSide]

If McDavid only gets 97 points, it’s the biggest drop ever.

How little faith you have in the best player on the planet. It’s just silly to think he doesn’t turn this around.

-Ken Holland during the post-trade interview

They have a goalie duo in Boston that is like the heart of the team, it would take a lot to break that up. Plus Zacha and Coyle has been great for them this season, I dont even think RNH would be an upgrade at this point.

If we don't do anything right now McDavid and Draisaitl are going to leave and we're staring down rebuild 4.0.

As long as we all understand what's at stake here.

On a Bruins Dad's trip

 

[Soundwave]

If McDavid only gets 97 points, it’s the biggest drop ever.

It's meaningless because it would only happen because he's playing through injury. He had 8 points in 5 games this year pre-injury, that would put him at no.1 in league scoring at that rate.

All that tells you is he doesn't care about stats and is willing to gut it out even when hurt.

 

[BlackDogg]

Intermissions just aren't as long as they used to be. Sigh

 

[brentashton]

Wouldn’t a savvy coach be able to make adjustments?

 

[Captain Fantastic]

Chet?
