I’m just so confused by the coaching. You have all this young talent, you don’t play them, still get scored upon, and again refuse to play the new players. You have Frederic who does f all at best as well. This team honestly needs Hyman, obviously, but maybe even Janmark and Kapanen because they need a true 4th line. The 3rd and 4th line have become a dumping ground for players that didn’t make it into the blender. If Frederic stepped up or maybe Tomasek as the 4th line center with Kap and Jani, maybe they could get some work done.
Bouchard should be a forward…he always takes random naps when playing d…Bouchard 10.5 mil what a joke…
Stu is inconsistent as usual…
Having bad goalies is gonna cost you leads, need Bowman to make a move.
They certainly are the best team in the league for snatching defeat from the thrill of victory !!! Unbelievable how the y continue to cave in. At this rate they'll be able to book the times by January
Even soccer I hate shoot outs, they should break out the young talent and get them to face off in OT.
Time to make a trade
One word sums it up, Immature. Led 2:0 = won the game; led 3:1 = won the Stanley Cup, so ready for bed afterwards. Just sad. Price of trading away Brown and Perry.
What are the possibilities of trading Nurse and Skinner to Ottawa for Ullmark?
They couldn't hold the line again. The bright side? Roslovic's a keeper. And, this team will gel, and do very well.
Hi Patrick it s now here in Germany 7:44am and my head smoked. We had a good start in the game and Draisaitl's goal gave me a big smile on my face. I agree with you, nobody else is able to shoot from there between the legs of a goalie! What a shot!!! But instead of getting cooler everybody was starting his own war against his opponent, means we got penalties in minutes tact. The controlled game runed out of our team's hands. Passing out of our zone was horrible, also passing on attacking. Why I am not surprised that we lost again??? In Dallas team was only one guy to pay attention for, Rantanen! Don't know why he was always free in the slot or outside position. Think it was a new tactical positioning in order to help Stu! Next was checking behind the goal, if Ekholm is checking, why did Bouchard go also behind the goal and emptied the slot in total??!!! This is a basic. His performance looked again like a beer league player. Say it again, trade him for Seider, best we needed urgently! Rest is history, and the time has come to make a rest in support at this unhuman time in the morning. Hope you understand. Have a good sleep, I will go hitting some golf balls for the pain in my brain.
Have always hated the shootout, and always will. Just bring back friggen ties, and be done with overglorified garbage.
When a team struggling to find early season chemistry and consistency faces very high schedule density, you end up with bad hockey and disappointed fans. But this too shall pass.
3 points squandered in back to back games. Teams are aware of the dynamic duo with Bouchard and are countering. Time to adjust accordingly, maybe use Nurse .The nice bounce was lack of coverage. Cannot coast getting back. Pathetic. Podz looked good .
Patrick, I believe the Oilers are creating a double standard with conting to play BOUCHARD. Sit him down for a game or two.
Oilers need a big save late in games.
Things to work on? They should get Baby Doll "Too Fragile to Bench" Bouchard a shrink. So everyone else is supposed to show up for the regular season except the Oilers' $10.5M goalie?
