Silovs is trash. But Skinner is worse.

Skinner is the landfill. All the trash goes in there.

 

[GrumpyKoala]

I'll give Skinner credit.

A tutor shooter probably wouldnt have stopped that one either.

I'll give him credit too

At least a twenty so he can call a cab cuz there no way he getting a plane ride back

 

[FlameChampion]

They never will but I think they have to go with Pickard.

 

[TheNumber4]

A split in Vancouver would turn this narrative right around. Going back home 1-1 is great result still. Need to have a 3rd period here. Time to PRESS. Sitting on our heels ain’t working.

 

[Pavel10]

Theres no way they run it back with him next year.

him in the playoffs is worse than any version we've seen here of Jack Campbell.

The table is set for a Campbell redemption arc. I mean skinner has brought this on.

 

[harpoon]

Bieksa pointing out a missed too many men on the Zadorov goal. This is insane

Ron … desperately arguing that it’s was all fine.
What a tool he is.

 

[Tobias Kahun]

The one good thing about Skinner being the goalie is ive learned to just not give a shit about the games because you just know hes gonna f*** it up.

 

[Broberg Speed]

Maybe check the stats where he ranks. Lol. Check the underlying metrics. You literally have nothing to stand on except your bias. Putting you on ignore

I'm watching and Bouchard looks like he has blue balls.

Offensive power play specialist but furthest thing from a difference maker.

Trade him while he has tremendous value.

It's really the only way forward if this team is to succeed.

Last chance with McDrai.

Be honest with yourself. Bouchard is doing f*** all.

 

[elmeroil]

The shift before the Canucks scored. The play was in the Oilers zone and Skinner was in his crouch but about a foot out of position. He’s routinely losing his net in this series. Probably because he’s rattled by the speed of the Canucks forwards. This is what he looks like when he goes off the rails. He should have been pulled after that goal and better not be in the net to start the third. Pickard has to start game 3.

Would love to see Pickard start the 3rd but they are way too stubborn for that. They couldn't handle the critiszm if it went badly. I wanted to see Pickard play in the playoffs, there were games in the reg season where he reminded me of Roloson.

 

[Bryanbryoil]

Huge 3rd here. Going home to Edmonton tied 1-1 is a million times better than going home down 0-2.

 

[Mcnofool6110]

Jack Campbell got a different goalie coach, maybe put him in

Don't trust waving wacky inflatable Pickard man

 

[Drivesaitl]

Theres no way they run it back with him next year.

him in the playoffs is worse than any version we've seen here of Jack Campbell.

I'm way biased about Fred Skinner. What do I know?

 

[jesusbuiltmyhotrod]

Skinner has bad form and awareness...you were flamed on here for pointing it out on here....

 

[Upperchucker]

At what point do we hire a coach that can actually make in game adjustments? This is no different than Woodcroft.

 

[tiger_80]

For sure. This is almost certainly the last run for this group if they flameout of this series in particular. I just don't know how you can keep this group together with far more expensive contracts and an aging core. It would be lunacy.

Lots of NMC too. But I'd guess Kane, Ceci, maybe even Draisaitl could get traded. Foegele, Henrique, Perry, Brown, Janmark probably do not return. Ryan may get waived.

 

[Panthers Propaganda]

You mean the Zadorov goal from the goal line that shouldn't be a goal against even an ECHL goalie? That one? , thats on Skinner all day.

Yeah, that's tough too, but if they arent caught puck watching maybe they get a stick on it before it ever has the chance to test him y'know. Theyve been a complete disaster in their own end this game and the last, and the last, and the last...

Canucks are all over them with the forecheck and system. I'm not sure at this point that there is anything they can do about it.

 

[iCanada]

It's been pointed out a number of times. Somehow he hasn't fixed a f***ing thing over the course of 82 games. And who's still employed, and still working through multiple regime changes? That asshole schwartz. Man f*** that guy, and f*** Skinner.

I'm aware. Lol.

I've been saying this for over a year now that I think he's got atrocious fundamentals, been harangued as some hater that just wants to sewer the local boys career.

 

[Drivesaitl]

Huge 3rd here. Going home to Edmonton tied 1-1 is a million times better than going home down 0-2.

Hope we can score 5 or 6 goals then.

 

[McDrai]

It’s crazy how badly Vancouver can shut down our offense. No other team could really do that this year. This is looking like a sweep series unless if we can start to generate more

 

[barry halls]

This sucks, why can’t they find their top-end game? Even if they beat the Canucks they’d get crushed by whoever comes out of the central. Same goes for Van which is a bit of consolation I guess.

 

[Pavel10]

Skinner in the postgame:

Skinner post game "I'm learning so much!"

 

[Broberg Speed]

Bouchard has a chance on the pp, what will he do?

 

[KeithIsActuallyBad]

Huge 3rd here. Going home to Edmonton tied 1-1 is a million times better than going home down 0-2.

I’ll save you the trouble. The Oilers will butt fumble the period and not score because of overpassing and a complete lack of depth.
