Rob Brown already defending the goaltending on the Oilers post game show LOL

Rob Brown is a massive cuck.

 

[foshizzle]

If Knob is starting to call out goaltending you know it’s a problem. Bootlickers soon to follow?

Oilers need a new goalie for sure

And goalie coach

 

[Hockeylife2018]

13 goals allowed in just over 24 hours?
F it just take a chance on gibbson at this pkint

And goalie coach

Oilers were trying to get Gibson during the summer as well remember? Friedman said it on 32 Thoughts.

I think our coaching staff know this goalie core is not the answer

Just like the rest of the Oilers legacy media, full blown Pejorative Slur

You’re so happy to post this shit. Where were you when the team was first in the division? Eeyore f***

Dude. I am aways around and posting. Unlike some who run and hide.

Also the post you are quoting is in reference to all the massive negativity on the board right now.

When the schedule came out we knew this was going to be a rough patch.

As I see it, too much complacency on this team. Too many players are fine with coasting and not going balls to the walls. In no particular order:

1) Move out Arvidsson, trade, waive, whatever. For his cap hit he is crap. I have absolutely no time for this player.

2) Move out at least 1 regular bottom 6 guy. Show the rest that if you want to be here you need to work, nothing is guaranteed. One of Henrique, Janmark or Brown. Replace them with someone that has a motor and plays physical, a guy like Matt Hendricks was back in the day. Is that Trent Frederic?

3) Get a physical shut down RHD to move Emberson to the PB when we need Klingberg's puck moving and to move Klingberg to the PB when we need more of a solid defensive presence.

4) Add an actually offensively capable offensive winger to the top 6. If we can grab Rantanen while also getting other pieces that we need at the deadline go for it. We are too reliant on McDrai and Connor is fighting it right now.

5) ffs address the goaltending. Right now we are playing like we either want a coach fired or we have given up on our goalies and every bad goal just takes the wind out of our sails.

Those clowns had no problem shitting on Binnington (deservedly) during the round robin of the 4 Nations, yet not a f***ing peep about Moustache. Instead they keep doubling down and defending him. The media in our market makes absolutely no f***ing sense. Good thing Stu's not from a European country, I guess.

If he was European he would have been out of the league by now

Perfect storm of “local kid” and “pet project of incompetent but somehow untouchable goalie coach”. Also his stupid stache or something

Signing the Arvidsson/Henrique/Skinner trio has to go down as one of the worst offseasons in Oilers history when you add in that it costed us Holloway/Broberg. 10 million dollars for a trio of players who barely look NHL caliber most of the time. Lazy veterans who are cashing a paycheck and trying to ride the McDrai train to a Cup while contributing nothing. Foegele, McLeod, Holloway, and Broberg had their flaws and inconsistencies but they're so much better than these losers it's not even funny.

this bored is VERY predictable. I am not worried about the next 5 games. I had only the philly game as a win

I will get worried if we do not go AT LEAST 3 -2 in the next 5 games games
3 home
Anaheim
Mntreal
Dallas--this is the game that concerns me
2-1

then we have 4 more road games playing all NY State teams and the Devils
and we should go 3-1 in those

Games leading up to March 7th deadline

TB
Florida
Canes
Anaheim
Habs

if we lose against both the DUcks and Habs? I can see a panic move on the 7th

 

[Lay Z Boy GM]

I’d be so pumped if we got a decent goalie, you know the rest of the team would be too.

I guess we’ve got 2 weeks until the deadline. If Bowman doesn’t make a move I’m flabbergasted. Feels like we’ve had the same GM this whole time because nobody seems to even see the glaring issue. It’s been insanely long waiting for a legit goalie.

The Ironic thing there is--many called Jackson a genius after he did it. A few of suggested we may have a problem signing Broberg and Halloway--no idea come August 7th we would not have the money for either of them

They literally said and agreed on “a weak goal in the playoffs kills you” while defending Skinner

 

[Jumptheshark]

as other posters have pointed out

we are in a buck in buck out situation with trades

I hated it. Need to take care of your own business first. Especially Holloway. I thought he should have been priority 1, 2 and 3

 

[Echodek]

If the rumour of Binnington being available is true, then you need to make that call. If management seriously thinks our goaltending is ok that’s bad enough. But negligently not trying to improve it is fireable.

100% agreed.

I agree 10000% and posted so--I was concerned about money by July 6th we were against the cap again. On the 5th when we shipped out McLeod for Savoie I was hoping that 2.1 was for Halloway.

Like I said in the Halloway/Broberg thread--I believe that thread will out live me

Oh noes how will we ever live without Henrique and Arvidsson lol. Get this trash outta here, Evander Kane is likely past his expiry date too.

6 mill a year coming 6 mill going out--unless we can convince Kane to wait till the playoffs and then worry about the cap hit next year

we need to get other teams to take them with no retentions

How do we convince other teams to take players we DO NOT WANT?

Henrique/Skinner are addition by subtraction and Arvidsson isn't much better either.

The problem is.. do we even have enough assets?

Imagine if he was Russian. Mark Spector would be ragdolling him during post game interviews

The plus side with them is their salary term is not very long. 3/4 years remaining would be a more serious issue. Teams generally know full well if they send out big salary, they have to take some back.
