Post-Game Talk: The Sieve We Know

How about that Frederic guy. Yikes. Was high on him but can't imagine he is of any impact these playoffs.

It's the McDrai show as it always will be here. McDavid with one of the all time performances. That elation after tying it up only for fat f*** Skinner to fall asleep at the wheel once again.


McDavid looks up at Knob after that 6-5 goal and his eyes let Knob know he will never played with Skinner in net again. What a joke. Pickard has to start next game.

Frederic, the guy with 1 assist 2 hits and 2 shots?

Is that Connor on the right side? If so, his hand expression says it all. Meanwhile there lies fat f*** on his knees (again) looking all surprised the puck went in the net.

Go watch the highlights, play the game at some point, try not to be a follower and you will see Kemper was worse than Skinner and that our team never showed up for more than 20 minutes. Look at how many PPs Kings had. Look at how open they were in front of our net. Look at the 6 shots we had in the first 1/2. etc etc

There's no doubt that the Oilers were asleep for most of the game, but for them to come back and tie it after going down a huge deficit including with the refs being absolutely shit, they (especially McDrai) didn't deserve to lose with a weak ass knucklepuck GWG in the final minute of the 3rd period along with Skinner posting a -2.79 GSAX meanwhile the Oilers empty net had a +1.41 GSAX which is f***ing comical.

All Oiler fans are asking for is Skinner to at LEAST be average in net, and he can't f***ing do it. After years and years, Skinner is still a sieve during the post season. He hasn't learned and frankly, I don't think he ever will.

Vintage McDavid cannot overcome vintage Stuart Skinner.

Try watching the third period. It sounds like you completely missed it, especially that game-killing muffin. We almost took them to OT until a blooper reel goal bounced over our blooper reel star goalie.

And some of those LA PPs were bullshit game management.

No one can. Losing by one goal in the finals is the closet Skinner will ever get to winning a Cup, and it’s a f***ing miracle he made it that far. If Pickard didn’t bail him out, Skinner would never make it past the second round. And even then, Campbell had to bail him out round 1 the year before

And looks like Pickard will have to bail him out again

An absolute joke of a goalie

We were doing great with empty net, who was a total brick wall compared to Stu. Putting Skinner back in there cost us the game.

He may have come here for intelligent conversation, but he certainly isn't capable of contributing to one.

That's the thing with Stuart Skinner supporters.
They follow the 'hivemind' of media members like Jason Gregor or Mark Spector where Stuart Skinner can do no wrong in their eyes and act all condescending towards anybody else that says otherwise. Been like that especially this season. Nobody is asking for Skinner's downfall but only for him to be adequate enough in net to help this team succeed in the post season = viewed as a mob fest on Skinner so we're all idiots with a hivemind.

Yeah well, all Skinner supporters defense comebacks: But but but he took us to G7 of the SCF last year. But but but he beat the stars last year toooo.
He was shit against the kings and nearly lost the series against the canucks who played a 3rd string goalie in Silovs who was still better than fat f*** last playoff run.
This season? 1st game of the playoffs against the kings, and he's still shit showing the same weaknesses.
Can't move laterally fast enough because he's slow and fat, can't handle a rush chance against, flops all over the net like he's looking for treasure under the ice.

I don't even like Pickard as much either, but I have more confidence in him in net than I ever will on fat ass pizza 73 podcast listening book reading hippie mustache supreme overlord.

Stuart Skinner: -2.79 GSAx
The Oilers Empty Net: +1.41 GSAx

Like how even if an Oilers fan is the most ardent supporter of Skinner, how the f*** can they still defend him tonight especially with those statlines.

That puck would have went in on all goalies.

For a poster who said in the previous page "A guy who used to come on here for intelligent conversations now I come here for laughs" and then say what you just said is the definition of irony.

You're definitely a person who if gets punched in the face would apologize first and ask for the second punch to be harder.

Not a supporter, just know he isn't the reason for the loss
 
Frederic, the guy with 1 assist 2 hits and 2 shots?
meh Frederic is so much a product of being a reasonably physical player in the EC conference where hockey in general is far less physical. Move him to WC and he's just another guy, and not a particularly good player.

So he brings a few hits. So what? Dime a dozen.

jfc there were 11 goals in the game. The majority of the players on the ice got a pt. the goal in question was a total blown play by Kuemper. Being so bad on the play ne not only didn't block out, he didn't cover puck, he didn't do anything, and he's the first goalie to be beat by Janmark in a year. Until the winner that was the worst goal allowed in the game.

You can't win with Stuart Skinner, he has this magic about him, he can deflate his team at exactly the optimum moment. If his teammates are playing with energy and heart he finds way to disrupt instead on contributing. All the team is asking is to play average or a bit above average, he can't do it. If we had come back and won this game today LA was toast, psychologically the last three years would be going through their head every single minute of the day.
 
Hilariously, Janmark lead the team with an xGF% of 83% after that terrible season. One of the only guys who flipped a switch like we were hoping lol.

At the bottom of the list... Hyman, Nuge, Skinner, Arvidsson, Henrique.

Considering he got put on the worst possible linemates, I thought he got better as the night went on.

But seriously why is he on a line with the team's two worst cyclers? You know he's coming back from a high ankle, so his speed and forechecking is going to be shot.

Imo lines for next game are fairly easy.

Drai-McDavid-Perry
Podz-RNH-RV
Fred-Henrique-Hyman
Skinner-Janmark-Brown

Just be grateful the Kings don't have an answer for the top line overload.

Have Kane on deck for Hyman who clearly isn't 100%, or maybe Skinner.
And Kapanen potentially in for Brown, RV, or Skinner.
