GDT: Old School GDT: Oilers @ Stars 1 PM Sportsnet

[kevy9999]

Dallas woke up. We f***ed around too much again

Dallas was flat out of the gate and the Oilers just refused to take advantage. So frustrating.

It's

another power player? We have had 4 power plays to their 2

No we haven't. We had 3

 

[rboomercat90]

Brutal effort on that final shift. Players on the ice thought they could coast for the final 30 seconds of the period. Happening too often with these guys lately. Team should make Draisaitl walk to Anaheim for his effort on that shift.

 

[gordonhught]

The PK is now 10 for 19 from the Vegas game.

PK has nowhere to go but up!

 

[McTonyBrar]

Has anyone suggested that he's a 1B?

Yes. On here lots have

 

[OfCorsiDid]

He is as good/bad as Skinner. League average.
Our defense is well below league avg.

Revisionist history really reaching new highs today.

 

[The Moose]

PK went from hero to zero in a span of 5 games. Just horrendous lately.

 

[MessierII]

Legit what is our pk percentage since the break. Actually about 50 percent?

Close yeah 10 for 19

 

[mkatcherin00]

Unpopular opinion but if EDM traded him away I wouldn't even bat an eyelash. He's so slow and lazy most games, he forces passes etc. I don't want him eating up like 15 million a year. lol

I would not be depressed if he did leave, but I would also not trust us to go spend that money wisely

delusional.

 

[McTonyBrar]

If Skinner allowed that you would be defending him.

No I wouldn't. I'd like you to find evidence of that. I can find tons of evidence of you and your buddy Soundwave ripping Skinner somehow when Pickard is in net

 

[Ibanez]

Fix this f***ing PK already

Nah let’s just keep throwing the same people out there. What could happen

 

[Oilers88]

How did Elite Oettinger let that in. Easiest save ever. Only a 2 on 1

Honestly he's been weak tonight. He was way out of position on the Bouchard goal and the Ryan goal was soft as well. Time to press him in the third.

 

[Kerberos]

Getting flashbacks to this team from the beginning of the season. The similarities are all there.

Finishing ability has evaporated. Defensive structure takes a walkabout at inopportune times with a propensity for giving up odd-man rushes. Special teams are abhorrent.

I don't know what's worse. The 5-on-3 disaster or the PK shitting all over itself.

 

[Tobias Kahun]

No I wouldn't. I'd like you to find evidence of that. I can find tons of evidence of you and your buddy Soundwave ripping Skinner somehow when Pickard is in net

Lol, you mean the guy I have no ignore?

Totally my buddy.

You cant even find evidence of people claiming Pickard is 1B.

Keep making things up.

 

[Kerberos]

Bit hard on the McDavid deke where he had an entire empty net to shoot at and rang it off the post too.

Why not both.

 

[SupremeTeam16]

Duchene absolutely embarrasses Draisaitl there.

Such a soft defensive play. That was a prime example of the type of weak defending 97 and 29 are bad for. It’s clear as day from his body positioning, Draisaitl is thinking Dallas is going to be aggressive driving our net with 30 or so seconds and instead of establishing good body position and taking the man, he’s giving up a path to the net trying to leverage a low percentage stick check into gaining possession and a step going the other way, thinking about a quick transition maybe odd man rush before we even have control of the puck.

Duchene happily takes the free ice and soft check and drives to the net for a good chance.

The 5 on 5 play is way better than early in the year even now. Mostly special teams are killing us right now. Crazy to say.

 

[AnInjuredJasonZucker]

Yes. On here lots have.

Doubtful. Skinner is 6th in the league in starts. Maybe a meth head stumbled in muttering about Pickard being 1B, but I don't think it's actually a thing.

 

[Drivesaitl]

f*** off Brown. Napping on the weak side. Guarantee he wasn’t paying attention in video sessions

Connor Brown with yet another disaster game. How is he even dressed? (unfortunatly I know the answer)

Brown on ice for both PP goals, caught high on both, on one goal sucking, the other he runs right into a Star at the line. Why he's up so high goal sucking again is anybodies guess. Brown manages to be 50ft out of position just 2nds after a faceoff.

Then the EVGA you're talking about which was a complete blown coverage by Brown watching the play as his guy, Marchment, scores.. f*** off Brown!

 

[OfCorsiDid]

No one:
Absolutely no one:

Tobias Kahun: BuT StUaRt SkInNeR sUcKs

 

[mkatcherin00]

Dude he is NOWHERE NEAR Skinner. Your guys Skinner hate is f***ing disgusting

And Skinner is nowhere near the top. Our standard level here is low, so Skinner is just automatically considered much greater HERE

We need to play top 3 defensive hockey like the streak and make life easy on them or they both implode

 

[Ritchie Valens]

How does the coach keep his job with that.

It was lights out during the heater. I don’t know if teams watching tape of it have picked out a weakness in it they’re exposing or what is going on. It’s f***ing atrocious right now.

 

[TheNumber4]

If the Skinner haters focused on the opposing goalie every game they’d find just as much shit to complain about.

For example, that 2 on 1 Derek Ryan goal, they’d be saying Oettinger has no lateral movement and blah blah blah if that was Skinner letting in that exact same goal.

 

[CantHaveTkachev]

This team just never makes it easy on themselves. Dallas isn’t even playing that well.

Dallas is deeper and better at all positions
They’re sleepwalking and playing at half speed yet game is tied
