GDT: Train(wreck) Spotting - Sharks vs Oil

[moiderer]

Kudos to Peter Chiarelli and Ken Holland for torpedoing the McDrai era.

Could have been terrifying times in the Pacific division, but crisis has been averted.

Can’t wait to see where Draisaitl ends up

Can't wait to see how that whole thing unfolds over the next 2 years, or sooner if they're gutter this season.

Either the FA signings will be nuts or the trades will be board breaking. Edmonton should be able to rebuild pretty well with all the assets they could get big value for.

 

[Tables of Stats]

The Oilers went from Cup to Bust real fast.

 

[tantalum]

f***s in with Draisital, no seriously this guy won the scoring title years ago and carried the Oilers on their back.

What the hell happened to this guy

League figured out he only scores from the bad angle to nearly bad angle shot from the right side and shut it down. They’ve also shut down the cross ice pass to set it up.

Also he was scoring all those playoff goals and then Vegas broke him.

 

[Svencouver]

Good game for Edmontons PDO! They'll be at the top of the league as soon as they regress.

 

[moiderer]

The worst team in the NHL is just walking around Oilers defenders.

Can't look in the mirror if they have any dignity left.

Thing is Holland can’t trade for a goaltender right now. He’d get bent over with no lube. He has to wait until they start getting some results so it’s not a panic move. But if this continues there is no point to a goaltending move at all.

If he doesn’t make a trade I am pretty sure the oiler fans won’t use any lube on him when they jam shit up his ass

 

[LemonSauceD]

If San Jose wins this I’m going to be more excited than our win today

 

[MS]

Just tonight? Try the next 5+ years.

In 5+ years they’ll be in Houston. Stop being so pessimistic.

 

[Grip it N RYP it]

Totally forgot about RNH

^Sorry team. My bad.

 

[Petey O]

Good, San Jose. Give them a little bit of hope and score that empty netter.

[moiderer]

Down a goal with an empty net. This is the Oilers' cup finals.

Wtf were the Sharks doing there? Two oilers alone in front

 

[Petey O]

Probably the most important PP for any team in a long time.

[geebster]

This PP will determine who is 31st in the league. The stakes couldnt be lower.

Doing 2023/2024 Sharks things.

Mikael Granlund's play has somehow converged towards that of his brother Markus.

Give me Markus anyday of the week.

The cherry here would be for an empty net goal 6-4.

Especially if its another Nurse giveaway to Hertl. Would solidify who has the better contract

This kind of game could turn around your season if you come back from a 2 goal deficit in the last few minutes. Huge for the Oilers.

I dunno, I want Blackwood to get it.
