Post-Game Talk: Ducks 4 Oilers 3 OT

[FanOfSadTeam]

When was the last time we ever won a game like they did?

Shows you the difference between good teams and the Oilers

 

[CantHaveTkachev]

flukey goals, soft goaltending by Talbot and the Oilers looked dog tired

but a huge point in the standings! lol

more McPoints at least

 

[oil Leaks]

Classic 3rd period "Shutdown, defensive mode" from the Oilers tonight.

 

[BlackDogg]

The Ducks are my most hated team. I know it's supposed to be the Flames but the Ducks seem to piss me off more than any other team in the league. I wish nothing but failure for them this season and years to come

With upstanding gentlemen like Perry, Getzlaugh, and Kesler, not sure how that can be.

Did I miss anyone?

 

[The Moose]

That overtime was really greasy by the Ducks. Lazy by the Oilers too from the 3rd on. At least there was 3 McPoints.

I think we should have waited for them at our blue line, instead of chasing them in their own end, when it was clear what they were trying to do.

 

[CycloneSweep]

Nurse went from a bright spot in this season and us worrying about how high his contract might be to "wtf is wrong with him" and wondering how low his contract might be.

 

[KeithIsActuallyBad]

If McDavid isn't on the ice the Oilers have no prayer.

Second, third, and fourth lines are complete trash.

 

[CycloneSweep]

Randy Carlyle could out coach Todd Mclellan in his sleep. Hate what he did in overtime but it was brilliant. We’ve never even seen Mclellan line match let alone come up with something to get an advantage over his opponent.

Todd gave Anaheim the line match ups they wanted....and he had last change

Most of last year.

Sometimes this place is soooo juvenile after a loss...lol

Where's the popcorn.....

 

[VainGretzky]

Todd is an outstanding coach, is that better for you?

Todd never has McDavid out with a minute in a half out there when Opposition pulls the goalie he always has him out with a little over 2 min left , than McDavid only sees empty net if there is another whistle . It just shows his coaching ineptness . The best player in the world should be on ice when goalie is pulled , idiot coach does idiot things

I don't think the Oilers were lazy. They played the late game last night and went up against a better hockey team. Ran out of gas in the 3rd. Couldn't keep up with or handle the Ducks pressure.

Honestly quite a bit of puck luck for the Ducks tonight too. 3 pucks in off deflections I believe.

 

[rboomercat90]

The Oilers were playing too good in the second, so Todd had to switch things up and go into a ****ty defensive shell in the third.

Fourth time since the playoffs they've blown a multi-goal lead in the third period against Anaheim.

A defensive shell with no system. How come none of these players have any idea how to defend.

Thing is ducks aren’t even that good. They pull miracles out against us for whatever reason.

Bieksa, Ritchie, just a bunch of goons!
And then they have a couple of professional euro divers on their team

 

[Burnt Biscuits]

Talbot shouldn’t have been playing back to back nights.

Montoya was going to get the start, but had a minor ailment, we actually had Brossoit called up to backup tonight.

 

[CupofOil]

Yeah don't let this late season surge fool you. The front office needs to be flushed.

Agreed but not before the coaches are flushed, and Katz can flush himself and his buddies (outside of Gretz) down the river too.

 

[oobga]

Classic 3rd period "Shutdown, defensive mode" from the Oilers tonight.

I'm sure in 7 years McLellan will finally decide that just playing like they were before is the best way to finish off a game like that. Let's be patient and wait for the McLellan adjustment that always comes way too late.

AH yes Superpunchman. Takes a hero to use martial arts in a hockey fight.

Just make it easy and fire everyone you possibly can.

 

[BakedYams]

For everyone dumping on Talbot, would you have felt better with Brossoit in net?

 

[nexttothemoon]

Weak goal to end it... but positives are McDavid gets 3 pts... Bear gets his 1st goal. The Oilers stay behind the Rags (for now) in the draft rankings.

 

[McAsuno]

With upstanding gentlemen like Perry, Getzlaugh, and Kesler, not sure how that can be.

Add that diving Silverberg. Took a little tap from Nurse, and flopped like he got shot. What a disgraceful team. They're the new hated Canucks .

 

[Canovin]

All I can think of after the loss is 99 points and Adam Boqvist

It was a shitty loss to a team that I'm sure most of us want to miss the playoffs, what did you expect?

The juvenile comments are the ones about Talbot.
