GDT: PS #5 | "Return of the Mac" | Oilers vs. Yotes | 7:00PM | Streamed

Man...that second unit really shows you how few skilled players we really have on this team.

 

[GodPucker]

yup, OEL hit himself loll

 

[Cloned]

Russell got a little dirty there lol

 

[nexttothemoon]

I like Russell.. f*** you OEL

 

[iCanada]

LOL. They just take Russell. Ofcourse.

 

[McDNicks17]

OEL might be a worse embellisher than Cryin' Johnny.

 

[CantHaveTkachev]

Oh he will be. Our defense isn't going to stay healthy all year.

Which goals were on Benning tonight?

 

[SourOil]

Im done with the Drai/RNH/McD pp....I would switch out RNh with a shooter like Neal

They need a right handed shot. Tough to run a successful pp with no one-time option.

 

[ChaoticOrange]

And Bouchard can? Bouchard is definitely not ready for top 6 action, top 4 is ludicrous.

The other option is Ethan Bear, or Russell on his off side, which we emphatically know does not work. Do you like those particular apples any better?

 

[stratedge]

This will be a good wake up call loss. Some good stuff but a lot of stupid, sloppy plays.

 

[CupofOil]

Ah, the joys of defensive depth!

The top isn't good either. They have a 2nd pairing playing top pairing, a 2nd pairing guy, a 3rd pairing guy then a rookie and Benning who might as well be a rookie.

Nah, maybe OEL shouldn't be riding guys who havn't touched the puck for 30 ft into the boards on the wrong side of the rink. f*** that noise.

Fine with me. It would be stupid to throw Bouchard in the top 4 right now. He's not ready, don't force it.

 

[Mav3rick07]

It’s weird watching McDavid be rusty because we’re always used to him making perfect plays !!

Regardless I’m glad he’s back and you know he will be back to normal for our season opener .

Hey kevy!

whos kevy?

Hey man you don't gotta tell me. If you moved every pairing down one we'd have one of the best defenses in the league.

 

[TheNumber4]

I feel like I say this every year... the Oilers played sloppy. Now I'm wondering if they even have the skill to not play sloppy. Playing sloppy is just what they are.

 

[CycloneSweep]

Half the Arizona regular lineup and their 3rd string goalie outskilled our actual lineup.

Rough. I thought some of our young guys would take this massive opportunity to fill spots in the lineup and show up in camp...none did. Really dissapointing

 

[CantHaveTkachev]

Man...that second unit really shows you how few skilled players we really have on this team.

They need preseason skill like Rattie and Pulju back

 

[Tobias Kahun]

whos kevy?

McDavids #1 fan.

 

[belair]

Russell is probably the only D I'd say that looked decent tonight. Klefbom just quiet. Forwards looked good, but our top line was in autopilot.

If the defense looks like that all year it won't matter who's in net.

 

[KeithIsActuallyBad]

You could've told me this was a regular season game from last year and I would've believed you.

 

[TheNumber4]

You could've told me this was a regular season game from last year and I would've believed you.

... from one of the last 10 years and I would have believed you.

 

[booyakasha]

Hey kevy!

he's 100% correct.
