I assume this is a joke, but i missed the context lol

That is what the report was , cramps and equipment issues - didn’t skate and is day to day……

 

[Three On Zero]

Maybe you should pay a bit more attention to the games that you claim to watch. Draisaitl had 2 assists in the first period and missed a large portion of the second and third with illness/injury issues.

You can rack up assists without being an effective player, case in point: Draisaitl last night

 

[Avsfan1921]

Myers got him in the ribs/back and he missed much of the second half, Knobloch said it was due to a recurring equipment issue

Thanks, I watched the game so I knew he was labouring a bit, but the “equipment issue” thing is interesting.

*cough* Mikko Rantanen *caugh*

Define "effective." Do you use fancy stats or the eye test? He wasn't as effective, obviously, after the injury, as he missed most of the second and third periods, but he was good in the first half of the game.

 

[GoldenSeal]

Canucks definitely can win this series and if the Oiler don’t improve they will finish this off early but Fear The Orca is a legitimately funny way to phrase it

So was 'Believe In The Note' the year we won the Cup lol.

I mean Orcas seem to be chill and cool, so it's funny in that way, but I sure as fk would never want to mess with one O_O.

Well at least it’s not whatever Dallas fans have going with ‘We Deserve It’

He wasn’t effective before or after

Broooo... truth.

 

[Duke74]

Is he ever "effective" in your eyes? You seem to constantly downplay him.

Truth. Derek Roy suddenly pops to mind for some odd reason. And it really doesn't matter how great you are, even the greatest have been known to occasionally s#it the proverbial bed.

With how much you try to defend him even on HFOil, it’s known how he can be ineffective

Yes, it was only one game. He was good in the 1st round

 

[Bizzare]

Good evening to everyone cheering for the Canucks in this series. What a lovely day today was, didn’t have to listen to Oiler fans gloat.

 

[Duke74]

With how much you try to defend him even on HFOil, it’s known how he can be ineffective

With how much you try to discredit him, I wonder if you turned he down for a selfie.

 

[Three On Zero]

With how much you bash him, I wonder if you turned you down for a selfie.

Or he’s just not that good? Even fans of his team agree

 

[Dust]

He wasn’t effective before or after

He was easily the best Oiler forward prior to getting injured. You know this since you were watching the same game.

I feel lonely without all the Oiler fans in here. Where they all go ?

 

[Three On Zero]

He really wasn’t , outside of a couple low danger assists he was invisible

 

[Brookbank]

Might sweep them anyway.

Let's not get arrogant. No sweep talk.

 

[Duke74]

You mean the smart majority


One fan in here trying to die on the Draisaitl hill

There are a lot other posters that agree with me and you know it.

 

[GeoRox89]

Hope the Canucks pull this out and bring about maximum chaos.

Understand the excitement but some fans would do to come back down to earth a bit. Even though the Canucks had a much better game 1 performance that should be cause for hope and excitement for this series, going full Jets and thinking the regular season series and game 1 means this is in the bag could blow up just as badly

 

[Three On Zero]

Here’s hoping Draisiatl “cramps” his way to another mediocre game! Need a couple wins to get Demko back (hopefully) before the series is lost

 

[TheBeard]

Bullshit, with a 4-1 lead you need your defenceman to shut it down, not leave every lane wide open. Skinner was left to dry with zero support

I’m not convinced skinner wouldn’t have given up 3 in the third even if Edmonton played significantly better. I AM convinced Edmonton would have won had skinner played better.

It’s more just the “haha” moment to those that thought Edmonton would dominate this series, it was only game 1 but they already did better than most pundits thought they would

Good evening to everyone cheering for the Canucks in this series. What a lovely day today was, didn’t have to listen to Oiler fans gloat.

And fans of all the other teams thank you.
