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

[K1984]

He hasn't been great, no question.

But without him this franchise is nowhere near relevance.

Sure. Not relevant to the point, but sure.

 

[PBandJ]

Absolutely embarrassing.

Not much else to say.

 

[Mr Kot]

lol just saw the game impact score cards

Darnell is just trash. Omfg.
It doesn’t matter who we pair with him it seems. He’s always like bottom 2

yep, they should just admit they f***ed up and bench him. At this point who cares, he's waaaay too bad to really use effectively. Unironically, if they bought him out and had dead cap space until 2030, it would be preferable to him playing.

 

[Kerberos]

Didn't we lose the motivational/mental coach? Maybe our team is full of basket cases?

George Mumford? Still working with the team. They should probably schedule some 1-on-1's ASAP.

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.

You can probably throw Ceci into that thought process as well. Every time he wasn’t paired up with Nurse he looked semi competent.

You literally need someone Makar level and then some to salvage his pairing

Dude drags everyone down. Hell, I reckon even Makar would be a mediocre player paired with Nurse. That’s just how bad Nurse is

It’s to the point where I would seriously consider retaining half to maybe, possibly get him gone.

$4.75 cap penalty + a real, legitimate $4.75M d man to replace him is better than Nurse at $9.25.

Let Calgary fans have their Stanley Cup experience this fall, good for them.

Disappointed in the Oilers though. Got caught up in their newspaper clippings again. Not sure why we have to learn this lesson over and over again.

.900 goaltending would be nice too. Basically the lowest scoring clubs in the league are dropping 5 spots on us. A save would be great. And so would some finish. Same team as just year, but we're missing all of our snarl.

Short of calling in Sammy Gravano, how can you make him retire?

I wasn’t being serious. We’re stuck with that contract.

 

[MoontoScott]

I wasn’t being serious. We’re stuck with that contract.

No problem- I recognized the sarcasm. Sammy is retired now anyway.

 

[rboomercat90]

I have a hard time evaluating the supporting cast players when the core players have been so awful. This slide doesn’t turn around until they start playing better.

What’s Tonya Harding up to these days?

 

[iCanada]

Not ideal indeed Connor. Guess we'll just have to dig in.

Hopefully right now.

 

[McTonyBrar]

Those 4 are an absolute joke so far this year. You expect it with Nurse, of course

How good have Bouchard and Ekholm been as well? They've been awful

 

[Wreckus]

Not paying hard nose, hard work hockey is kicking their ass right now.

But some of the off-season moves an not addressing our D is hurting them big time.

Expecting another coaching change soon. Not sure if it’s the right move or not though.

 

[OfCorsiDid]

Shitting on Nurse and Dermott is low hanging fruit.

Why aren’t we being more critical of McDavid and Draisaitl?

Combined they are 1-2-3, a minus NINE with 8 SOG.

That’s f***ing embarrassing.

Hyman and Nuge have even been worse than that

 

[MoontoScott]

What’s Tonya Harding up to these days?

I don't know but she's a lot tougher than some of the guys we have out there. And she can always bring along her new boyfriend.

Maybe the league needs to start handing out significant presence penalties.

There’s been plenty of shitting on them.

The 8 shots might be the biggest indictment out of that horrific and embarrassing stat line.

If Bowman’s first move with this adversity is to fire Knob I’m going to IRA him.

Us fans need to realize the corrupt league keeps rules purposefully obtuse to pick and choose how to enforce them, and perhaps more importantly, to excuse the worst officiated product in North American pro sports
