Low Effort GDT Sens @ Oiler - 8PM - ESPN+/TSN5/SNW - Chat GPT Edition

[Puikiou]

I'd say this game is pretty even af 5 on 5, we might even have the better of it. Penalties are 4-1. That's tilting shots in the Oilers favour

We had zero sustained offensive pressure all game (save for the last 5 minutes, where everything was on the outside). Edmonton controlled the pace of the game and totally contained us.

 

[SensFanInMTL]

Chabot, 6th, Tyler Boucher for Quinn Hughes

 

[SensFactor]

We got one PP the whole game, there were a few calls not made in the third...

Ah well, 3/4 so far on this trip.....have a great Xmas, and come back and win the next 5 before heading home.

 

[swiftwin]

Good effort. Can't win them all. Especially considering the circumstances (schedule, Ullmark and refs).

 

[Sting]

Despite the loss, the team is so much harder to play against and there is a real commitment to team D. I think we've got issues with offense from some guys though and can't help but feel like we're missing a good top 6 forward.

Another weak game from Norris. Hoping we can move on from him at some point and bring in a better player.

 

[Burrowsaurus]

Ya I get that. He's not thriving because he has a weak partner.

But it's play by play and he's got to make that play

Absolutely does. But a better partner is probably not forcing him into a bad spot. I’m hard on Sanderson. And in the moment especially.

But then you have to think how many times does he have to expend the extra energy just to bail hamonic out. So then the one that f***s us over stands out

 

[GhostfaceWu]

Whatever. Reset over the holidays. Oilers are dogshit just took advantage of turnovers and one sided refereeing.

Lol please list all the high danger chances the oilers gave up to Ottawa?

 

[AchtzehnBaby]

last one... I swear

I thought he had a good game. Way better than the last two.

Triggered that bad you come here after your team squeaks out a win, huh? Goodbye to you on my feed clown.

Garbage in, garbage out - not talking about only useless data points here. Also referencing something else. See if you can figure it out Sherlock Holmes.

 

[JD1]

8million dollar doesn't mean you should be carrying a guy who is a number 6-7 defensemen.

You're right. It doesn't mean that.

Bit it does mean you're expected to make simple plays. That goal, imo, is on Sanderson. If you want to blame, sure, go ahead.

It was a simple play. He should have made that play

 

[Gil Gunderson]

Need Ullmark healthy and Zub back in the worst way.

I can’t do this Hamonic thing anymore.

Did Hamonic force him into a bad spot? In that moment?

 

[Senscore]

Team desperately needs this break.


They have earned it.

 

[Gil Gunderson]

Hopefully our top 6 remembers how to score when they come back.

 

[L'Aveuglette]

It is what it is. I ain't even mad.

 

[Knave]

6 of 8 points. Lose the back to back where team had significantly shorter rest.

Top 6 needs to figure out how to pass the puck properly and create better scoring chances. So many missed passes in the last 3 games.

Hopefully the time off helps Stutzle, Tkachuk and Ullmark with the injuries enough that all can come back for the next road trip rejuvenated because those are the 3 most important players right now.

Can't win them all even though there was an opportunity here.

 

[KingAlfie11]

3-1 so far is pretty damn good, can't complain. We can't win them all.

 

[Pierre from Orleans]

Ullmark had a tight back. Sounds like nothing serious.

 

[PoutineSp00nZ]

Ulmalk leaving the game is scary. Hopefully he is back after the break.

Sucks to snap the streak but it was going to end sooner or later. Lost to the runner up with the 2 best forwards in the league. It happens.

Question is how they respond the next game.

 

[L'Aveuglette]

Green says Ullmark's "back tightened up" so they took him out. Doesn't sound overly serious and you hope this is temporary. Perhaps it's a result of playing more games than he has for most of his NHL career.

 

[Xspyrit]

We're looking pretty consistent

No, there's some games like tonight where we don't look like a playoffs team at all

I can’t do this Hamonic thing anymore.

You guys have a lot more endurance than I do, I haven't been able since day 1

 

[Here I Pageau Again]

I've watched a lot of hockey in my day, and every team looks like shit once in a while.

Take a break, move on and win the next game we play! It's a long road trip and it's been good so far. Just don't get into the rhythm of losing.

 

[LeonDraisaitl29]

Hope ullmark isn't out long term. Big loss

I don't know if I want to move on from him, but I'm extremely concerned by his inability to take a pass, to make a pass, and his reluctance to shoot (where did those patented one-timers go?). Don't know if it's physical or mental, but this is not the Norris we know from a couple years ago.
