Jamie McLennan was the first guest on today’s show. He gave his initial thoughts on last night’s game starting with Jarry and the eventual OT winner. This then led to plenty of Oilers goalie discussion. We then touched on Jake Walman returning to the Oilers lineup last night, the Maple Leafs turning things around and how important goaltending is in today’s NHL.

Tristian Jarry is an average goalie at best, he's a slight improvement over skinner and he's also not a good playoff goalie. Ingram is a better goalie
I don't blame Jarry on the OT goal. I blame the lack of effort from the tired group of Oilers players that should not have been on the ice. Jarry made the touch. Bouch was not covering anything. McDavid and Draisaitl didn't have the energy to backcheck properly. Stop with the long shifts. Plenty of other options that could have jumped over the boards.
No shit.
point out of 1st in the pacific
there is no problem
Always pointing the blame anywhere but with the two guys making all the decisions: McDrai. If you're gassed, you're gassed. Get off the ice and/or tell the coach you're gassed so he can put fresh legs on the ice. But their egos won't let them. They have to be the superheroes. And we can pass over Bouchard freezing at centre ice instead of immediately picking up the threat of TWO Preds blowing passed him, and immediately backpedaling like hell to cut off a breakaway because that's typical decision-making by Bouchard. There was close to $40 million on the ice and not one good hockey decision made. Oilers play in any other division and they're not even close to a playoff team.
Jarry doesn't try to break up that play and Josi pots it on the breakaway Oilers fans would be complaining about why he didn't come out to play the puck before Josi got to it because he had time.
The line change was way worse
