  1. Klingberg and Kulak looked great! LA fans are classless bullies taunting Stu like that. You can do it Oilers! Let's regroup and show them what happens when you treat us like that! Just calm down and remember how you looked before the 4 Nations. You are the better team. 💙🧡

  2. Sorry guys but it’s over. I shut the tv off after the first. LA is playing hockey the way hockey should be played. They are attacking and forcing turnovers then capitalizing on them. Oilers are lolly gagging it thinking 97 and 29 can save them. Nurse finally quit backing into Stew but his new thing is laying down on the job. What does he have against attacking the player with the puck???

  3. Knob, go away!😝😝😝 And take that worthless "Stuuu,"🥲 Bush, and a few others with you!

    You're an obstacle to Leon and Connor's Stanley Cup victory.😇

  4. Cannot stop skating. The way to beat this team isn’t by cycling. Don’t stop skating each line change and keep pucks on your stick then we should start scoring. Stop the old man hockey.

  5. Bouchard looks like he’s only got one gear AND he has cost his team. His multiple mistakes must be sucking the optimism out of the room. Game one #97 and #29 were their best performers, McDavid played like the best player that he really is. Nothing short of SPECTACULAR, AGAIN. I feel for Bouchard, must be a little guilt when he cashes his paycheques, L.A. will win this series. Oilers lost too many difference makers in the off season. Broberg, Holloway Fogele they COULD NOT AFFORD TO LET GO…

  6. Overpassing and not generating chances because these guys can’t skate. If they lose tomorrow they lose the whole series. This isnt the 2024 cup final where we had broberg and holloway. We have washed up mediocre players with clauses for some reason. Must win both at home and maybe we have a chance to win in 6 or 7

  7. Honestly I would stop watching hockey if mcdavid and Leon retire. The 2 best players ever powerhouse team cant get the cup. Something sure stinks. We all know what's up.

  8. Actually the time to put Picks in net was after first period in games1 and 2, then if hes good he plays it out , if not put skinner for the third.
    There is no rules that limit how many times goalie switches . i looked . can be treated like any other line.

    Put Picks in net to START . LA HAS STU'S NUMBER and with non active defense box positioning by D PAIR on all D lines, Stu can't overcome the Defence missing from in front of him, and certainly can't do his job with D men sitting pretending their the goalie .

    Defence all lines need to stop puck watching , stop thinking you are a forward/winger to score or a block against our own goalie .

    INCOMING RUSHES – Defensive players ALL- TAKE THE RUSH PLAYER OFF THE PUCK , LET THE WINGERS CHASE THE , Your Job IS TO DISABLE AND REMOVE OPPOSITION PLAYERS OUT OF SCORING ABILITY . PHYSICALLY HAVE TO TAKE THEM AWAY AND UNABLE For THEM TO CONTROL OUR ZONE.

    THEN RETURN TO TIGHT BOX FORMATION , CUTTING DOWN ANGLES TOWARD THE NET

    LA KING RUSHES ARE 4 MAN SWARM FORMATION , EASY TO SHUT DOWN OF DEFENSE Would DO IT'S JOB ABOVE THE CIRCLE UP ON BLUE LINE .

    TAKE OUT THE MAN , DON'T WORRY ABOUT THE PUCK . THEY CAN'T SCORE IF YOU TAKE OUT THE MAN SHUTTING DOWN THE RUSH CHANCE .

    But The FAR MORE "MUST REMEDY NOW PROBLEM REMAINS " – SO SOLUTION IS AB SPLIT TESTING FOR DEFENSE LINES.

    PRIORITY 1 – UTILIZING HIS STRONGER SKILL SET – BOUCHARD IS MOVED FROM DEFENSE TO ROTATION SNEAK IN ON LINE CHANGE OPPORTUNITY FOR BOUCH BMB
    – Bouchard doesn't go back to defense , remains a winger at top of the circle for support to clear puck from zone .
    – He is beneficial on rushes AS A WINGER SUPPORT ,
    but PROVEN CONSISTENT RECORD EVERY SHIFT OF UTTER HORRIFIC DESTRUCTIVE DEFENSIVE FAILING AN ABSOLUTE TEAM LIABILITY EVERY PERIOD , EVERY GAME GOING BACK TO LAST FEBRUARY CONSISTENTLY PREDICTABLE AND such DAMAGE OF stupid unnecessary GOALS AGAINST CAN AND MUST BE AVOIDED .

    PRIORITY 2 – RESTRUCTURE OF DEFENSIVE PAIRINGS CALLING BACK (C DINEEN AND N PHILIP ) Keep KULAK AND WALMAN ON FIRST D LINE, ROTATING WITH NURSE AND (EKHOLM WHEN HEALTHY ) AND N PHILIP / C DINEEN , John Klingberg, AND Alec Regula

    Bouchard no look passes are BRUTAL., his lack of effort while watching kings come right to the net then pretend to realize but feign efforts of to far away for him to try . serious liability more — goals against Are CONSTANTLY 85% ALL
    BECAUSE OF BOUCHARD (LAZINESS OR HIM PLAYING FOR OPPOSITE TEAM ) . TEAM LOSSES BECAUSE OF BOUCHARD .
    PICKS NEEDS TO BE THE STARTING GOALIE FROM HERE ON OUT UNTIL HE GETS TIRED .
    BOUCHARD MOVED TO SECOND D LINE AND LESS ICE MINS –WAY LESS ICE Time .
