He also gave the puck away that led to a scoring chance against.

How many odd man breaks have we give up as a team tonight? 1 shouldn't lead to a benching when we only have 10 forwards available and Yamamoto is one of them.

 

[RattsSSV]

Bieksa is great doing breakdowns.

 

[nexttothemoon]

Making this 86.7% Broissoit look good in there with giving him no work.

 

[harpoon]

Haha Pietrangelo complaining in the intermission interview about his penalty to end the period. Saying the refs missed a ‘two handed slash’ at the other end. Suggesting that the Oilers are going to get the calls in this series.

I don't think he's the kind of guy who can handle heavy minutes and he's not going to keep up with Connor and company.

 

[mkatcherin00]

Woody should show them Vegas video they just stay in their box and protect the middle so good

 

[Bryanbryoil]

Oil letting a shaky tender off the hook with 15 shots. Way too many passengers notably with Nugent Hopkins and Hyman showing very little over two periods.

Big RNH fan, but unless he is hurt he has been brutal these playoffs.

 

[DrDrai]

Great advice from the worst coach in the NHL

 

[Navx94]

I love how Eakins talks like he doesn’t have the worst coaching record.

 

[Mcnofool6110]

The perfect game is a game where you don't hit anyone, because then you have the puck the whole ti.e

 

[gordonhught]

I think Yamo needs more shifts. He is coming on strong.

 

[Shad5150]

Vegas was gifted a goal by Deharnais and they have only a one goal lead going into the 3rd period. We're playing like crap and we will still win this game. Believe it.

 

[Bryanbryoil]

is 12-15 minutes too much to ask for when we are down 2 forwards?

 

[CupofOil]

Nuge and McDavid need to be better. McDavid hasn't had a single standout performance this playoff

He's been a ghost (relatively) at even strength and he's trying to skate through the entire team every shift seemingly. Injured or not, his play has been...weird, don't know how else to describe it.

 

[BoldNewLettuce]

I just remember the short story I wrote about Eakins keeping a crushed apple in a ziplloc bag in his jacket......just in case.

 

[Mcnofool6110]

Underrated wall player?
Picks the largest top 6 winger on the Oilers.

We're off for two days after this, play your horses.

Then again nobody's going in this game so maybe it doesn't really matter.

 

[T-Funk]

I think Eakins' people are sabotaging him.

 

[snipes]

We’re winning this game.

 

[Oilhawks]

You can adjust the breakout at any time but particularly in between periods.

Players look bad when pressured and their outlets are sealed. Need to have players adjust the pass to lanes that aren’t sealed and that means adjusting the breakout.

Fair. I'd rather not try and tweak too much in a game that you're down a goal, but I'm no NHL coach.

Guy had a spare suit ready to go when Hall splashed water on him

Draisaitl is.

 

[russ99]

Perfect analysis on ESPN. Take care of your own end, Clean breaks out if our own end, win puck battles, get the puck deep and out skate them on the wall.

Change this inane finesse gam - don’t do the same things the opposition scouted you on video to prevent.

 

[Balakay14]

Are these numbers even legitimate, I feel Eakins is just pulling stats and tidbits out of his ass - “1 hour time difference takes the body 24 hours to recover” - “80% of the game played within 3 feet of the boards”

Who knows - they might be legit, but I can’t trust anything this man says, and anyone who’s watch him coach knows the same thing. Don’t think Bieksa has much time/respect for him

 

[T-Funk]

Slight tweak I would make: skate to the blue paint and someone else SHOOT THE PUCK
