Right?! McLellan is af***ing joke of a coach.

If I’m a D-man I just stand there and go D to D until these f***ers actually forecheck. Let these idiots stand there and look helplessly at their dumbass koala coach.

 

[T-Funk]

I dunno if Woodcroft is brainy enough for that type of strategy.

The refs would be embarrassed for Koala and dump on us the rest of the game.

 

[DrDrai]

Oilers need to watch those corner battles, they got a bit overzealous and the refs will be watching in the second period. Tone it back on those hits but keep the pressure up.

 

[Bobieque]

Oilers should just have its own intermission coverage and forget these studio guys.

Moon, Bob, and someone not named Jack.

The second the Oilers have a season + playoffs in house package in 4K for $300-$400 year with no commercials…I’m ALL in for that

 

[Mr Positive]

If the kings didn't play the trap they'd be awful

it makes sense though. They played it just that way and it paid off. Just wait for the mistakes. That's why we need to clean that up and make sure the PK is at least passable

 

[tardigrade81]

Draisaitl dominating. Love to see some rare big hits from Hyman as well there.

McDavid and RNH are absolutely failing.

This.

 

[McClelland]

Lets put a dagger in La spirit early in the 2nd, no f trapping fallback , defending the lead shit..

 

[oobga]

F off with the gambling already

 

[LTIR]

We might need to tone down the physicality.. not the clean hits but the ones that are easy penalties in regular season.

+ No play by play. Sign me up.

 

[nexttothemoon]

Because of last game that first period means nothing to me, I am broken

It was a learning experience for this team... that 1st game loss has the potential to be a propellant for the rest of the playoffs. Better that happens in game 1 in the 1st round than game 7 of the 4th round.

 

[Kerberos]

Doughty f***ing crying to refs

That bitch cries every single shift. Hope somebody annihalates him (cleanly).

 

[Captain Fantastic]

This.

McD..past 10 games at least. Can't we have them all going 100 percent. oof

 

[gordonhught]

JP might draw back in with the injuries to the canes forwards.

 

[Leonardlizard]

 

[Ritchie Valens]

If baseball can ban the shift, the NHL can ban the trap.

 

[rboomercat90]

Sorry for my ignorance, but can you or someone else explain why so many here are using @Mr Kot ’s Avatar? Hope he/she is ok.

I’d be more worried about his cat. Somethings not right with that thing.

I’ve said it a thousand times on here. I’m very happy that the players are MUCH more resilient and know how to deal with adversity much much better than Oilers fans.

 

[Sanchez]

The only bad thing about that period was Singh

 

[nexttothemoon]

I'm not even watching the panel but would like it to be known that Hrudey can eat shit.

...runny, explosive lactose-intolerant shit... for good measure.

 

[ujju2]

As the world's biggest Nuge fan (self-proclaimed), I'm somewhat concerned by his decision-making with the puck. Too many passes into opposing sticks, he's gotta simplify.

 

[tardigrade81]

I was more agreeing Drai has looked excellent. They have done a good job containing McD though

 

[bellagiobob]

We toned down the hits in the third last game and it cost us. Keep it clean, but keep ‘em coming.

 

[Mr Positive]

McDavid with that too, even this game.

Of course the other side of that coin is that the Kings are really good at that stuff.

 

[Oilhawks]

Mr. Kot got us all to be his clones and he's mysteriously disappeared! Wtf man
