GDT: Panthers@Oilers - 8PM - Nice kitty…

[Jimmi McJenkins]

#Campbell wasn't that bad

Nah he was.

 

[soothsayer]

This is why letting in a wrist shot from the blue line, as the game winning goal no less, is so brutal with this team at this stage. You cant give points up like that, because now they are on the verge of another losing streak.

Last game they outclassed the lightning and lost
tonight reverse strategy play like the lightning and get a win

opps forgot about the Vasilevskiy angle

 

[Hockeylife2018]

While this isn't all on Pickard, I'm glad the
"We need to play our ahl goalie more" crowd is getting what they wanted

There's a reason the guy hasn't been a starter since 2017...

 

[YakDavid]

My guess is on the second goal they didn’t review since it’s goalie interference but you have to have the refs overturn it. They clearly just pointed to nurse making the contact and called it as so even though he’s pushed in.

 

[Mikey71]

Softest team in the NHL defending in front of the net. High slot? Don't even get me started.

 

[TheNumber4]

2nd GA Tkachuk rides Nurse into Pickard it looked like. Probably why the challenge wasn’t made.

3rd GA tough screen for Pickard. Bad rebounds can happen when you can’t see the puck.

 

[Dan Kelly]

Such a disinterested team today...

Yup, back to the garbage hockey again ! 8 game win streak is about to turn into what? a 5 or 6 game losing streak? Every year it's the same mid season crap hockey !

 

[CupofOil]

Just seeing the score. This was my worry after the Tampa game, that it broke them. Team is streaky and mentally fragile. I worry that the season spirals out of control on this road trip.

Yeah because Skinner is so good, really? What other option do they have?

Not only that but there was 2 Panther plays just sitting in front of Pickard and no one picked them up at all

 

[RandomGuy79]

Will be really interesting to see how they bounce back?

Will they come out hard and strong, or slow lazy and disinterested?

At least Pickard is starting.

Guess I got my answer. Its the later.

 

[rboomercat90]

Team looks awful tonight. Was worried about the residual effects of how the team lost against the Lightning and was worried it could send them into a tailspin.

 

[Boner Pills]

Final minute summed up the entire period

 

[oXo Cube]

You can score on the Panthers so this game isn't over but the boys better put their work boots back on.

 

[Dan Kelly]

Holloway can’t come back soon enough. He’s not a great offensive player but he’s better than Brown.

Can't stand either one !

 

[McTonyBrar]

I haven't read the comments and I don't support racism, but the national anthem should only be performed in Canada's official languages in my opinion.

What’s wrong with diversity??

Which is so frustrating and stupid. Every team is going to have one of those games, and it shouldn't make you fall into a depressed slumber.

They 100% know they are going nowhere with these two. No matter what they do.

Don’t think it broke them. They don’t look rattled, just disinterested

 

[McTonyBrar]

That wasnt even that bad of a comment section from what I saw by twitter standards.

You didn’t see the bad ones that got deleted then.

 

[TheNumber4]

2GA eerily similar to what Bolts did to Skinner to get him bothered right before a shot. We should do the same shit back. Only really Kane has that type of game tho, but it should be ingrained into the system.

What has he done thats bad?
First goal, impossible for him to do anything on except a crazy one in a million save.
Second one he gets completely interfered with, wether its because of his own player or the panthers player, theyre in his crease, physically stopping him from moving infront of the puck.
On the third goal, the puck gets tipped a few feet away from him and he cant control the rebound, which isnt to expected considering the tip.

What do you expect him to do?

Exactly. Those of us concerned about that read it as that. This was another gut punch to the team who again look out of sync tonight and no longer confident on puck, no longer making plays. Florida all over us.

The good news is its only one period.

Team was fragile and Skinner through the two pts away, thats not a casual thing. Could impact greatly.

Disgusting period by Draisaitl. Dreadful really.

If Skinner wasn't in top 5 worst NHL goalie, then there would not be a crowd
