GDT: #77 | Stars @ Oilers | "Composed by Hans Zimmer" | Mar 28 | 7 PM | SN

[Ritchie Valens]

Is it just me or has the Stars franchise owned the Oilers since they beat them in the playoffs in 91.

 

[iCanada]

My god, after the first 3 shooters, came a sobering reality of how putrid the depth on this team is.

There was no chance in hell anyone else on this team was going to score. We could have just forfeited after McDavid missed.

Idk, Gags coulda won it. Khudobin was cheating backhand though, had the read on him.

Should’ve put Rieder out there.

You mean 1997?

Gags is gags Has a good agent though

 

[KeithIsActuallyBad]

What a depressing season.

 

[5 Mins 4 Ftg]

Would be nice to see the Oilers follow up a 7 or 8 goal performance with something more than crickets by the rest of the team once in a while

 

[PBandJ]

LOL Chiasson, sends the puck into orbit with the season on the line.

 

[CycloneSweep]

Meanwhile while the Oilers build a slow lethargic goon squad around McDavid and Drai, another stud fast skating high IQ defenseman debuts in the NHL. Quinn Hughes for the Canucks. Cant wait until we prod along slow pokes like Bouchard to counter attack.

Ahh yes the Oilers should of drafted Hughes with their pick even though he is off the board. Yes. Bouchard isn't even slow.

Yes, can't believe the Oilers picked Bouchard over Hughes.

 

[Ritchie Valens]

Debrincat with his 40th put the Hawks up 4-3.

 

[KarmaPolice]

Language barrier.

Coach told him to put it top shelf. Chiasson thought he meant upper deck of the arena.

 

[5 Mins 4 Ftg]

Welp at least people have flags to wave in surrender after tonight.

Waving a flag upside down is a sign of distress, fyi...

 

[iCanada]

TBH watching it again I'm not sure if Chaser could shoot it that high again if he tried. LOL.

 

[Ritchie Valens]

You mean 1997?

Nope, 91 when they were still in Minnesota.

 

[KarmaPolice]

Debrincat with his 40th put the Hawks up 4-3.

I wanted him so bad in that draft. He would be a perfect fit to make our 2nd line more dangerous. Though even I didn't think he'd be this good so soon.

 

[ElysiumAB]

LOL Chiasson, sends the puck into orbit with the season on the line.

Same result as Drai and McD....... just his defied everything we know about physics, geometry, and rational trajectories.

 

[McFlash97]

Yes, can't believe the Oilers picked Bouchard over Hughes.

Didnt say anything about where Hughes was picked but we should have made a pitch to move up a couple of spots, or at least given it a legit shot.

Yeah! How dare the oilers pass on Hughes to draft Bouchard..

 

[5 Mins 4 Ftg]

Debrincat with his 40th put the Hawks up 4-3.

Imagine that, a goal scorer who performed with and without McDavid, scoring goals in the NHL. Never would have guessed.

Yep it'd be nice, but I'm still intrigued to see what Benson becomes.

And who is to say we didn't?

I hate the "we should of tried to make a trade" who is to say we didnt?

 

[Ritchie Valens]

Same result as Drai and McD....... just his defied everything we know about physics, geometry, and rational trajectories.

The league will be checking to see if he's been corking his sticks to get some extra pop on his shot.

 

[5 Mins 4 Ftg]

Not sure he turns into a 40 goal scorer but he should be an effective NHL middle six forward (2nd or 3rd line)

 

[Senor Catface]

At least Benson is killing it at the AHL level.

I've been so used to every 2nd round pick bombing.
