Post-Game Talk: The Hangover was actually a funny movie. This … is very unfunny.

I turned it on in the 3rd 1-1. And after watching the rest of the game I can only wonder how Oilers weren't down 5-1 at that point

 

[94 Oil Drops]

3 goals and 0-3 to start the year.

I hate being that guy... But we all know what happened the season after the 06 cup run.

We really need to make a trade or things could get really ugly again and we may not be as lucky this time.

I miss the off-season

 

[5 14 6 1]

Hard to watch or root for this team. Bad in every respect.

 

[Bryanbryoil]

If RNH and Hyman keep playing like this our cup window is closed. Being an older team that keeps getting hammered by other teams with no response is not a good look. Do what you have to to add a guy like Kostin.

The reffing was beyond atrocious, but I think the physical play took its toll on us as well.

Refs win, refs win, refs win!

 

[Cloned]

They better wake up. Not sure what Bowman can even do so early in the season, and firing Knob would just be ridiculous.

Wish we had some cap flexibility so we can make adjustments, never know when a player becomes available and you need to be able to pounce.

My guess is Connor Murphy is an Oiler by the end of October.

So what shall we complain about tonight, fellas?

Better question

What is there to compliment ?

Colts won. So there’s that

 

[Jimmi McJenkins]

Waive Nurse tomorrow and recall Kemp.

They should call on Husso after he clears as well.

Just utterly pathetic.

 

[Throttlehead]

No speed, no grit, terrible backend, Nurse has to go.

Get your ass to edmonton stat

 

[FiveFourteenSixOne]

These f***ers are playing like they're still depressed about losing in game 7. They're passive, they're slow, they unengaged. If someone described their play as "pouty" this is what I'd envision.

Just yikes.

It really feels like even though its only 3 games in to the season that this team could really go off the rails in a hurry if they don't catch a couple of breaks.

 

[Bryanbryoil]

Lol i heard bob on the radio saying he's seen enough of the nurse/dermott pairing. Wow, nurse part of a trash d pairing? Who could've seen that coming?!

We have 2 top pairing D and then 5 #5-#7 D. Not a good look.

 

[North]

I said this facetiously the other day but maybe Broberg’s issue wasn’t actually playing the right side, it was playing with Nurse that was the problem.

 

[KeithIsActuallyBad]

I think the last 2 years was their real Cup window. Team is too old, slow and uninspired now.
Yeah I know it's just 3 games but you can't do this shit every year and keep expecting to dig out of it, it's going to wear on these old legs playing catch up all season. Plus when you have Darnell Nurse at $9.25m on your team, you're always at a major disadvantage.

I'm jumping to the timeline where Holland gets hit by a golf cart just before he gets hired. Wish me luck.

Second last goal cows scored, our top pair d, and mcdavid on the ice. It looked lime a calgary powerplay.

 

[bellagiobob]

Badly outworked the second half of the game. Give a shit level of this group is near zero. I have no explanation. Never have seen a Jekyll and Hyde team like this one.

 

[Oilhawks]

It's time to ask some uncomfortable questions about team leadership. Lockerroom yelling in the finals aside, the lack of interest in bearing down in regular season games is quite palpable.

 

[Messrules11]

That’s 3 straight shit shows, no heart displayed at all.

 

[Cloned]

Also people will complain about the goaltending and defense, and rightfully so, but they’ve scored 3 goals in 3 games.

McDavid, Hyman and RNH look cooked and Jeff Skinner is the only forward driving play. That’s f***ed.

What trade could fix this? They are by far the worst team in the league. -12, 2nd worst team is -6.

 

[CanadasTeam99]

Will this absolute gutless p***y org talk about the Refs?

 

[North]

We have 2 top pairing D and then 5 #5-#7 D. Not a good look.

We have a seven who’s paid like a top pairing d man.
