Post-Game Talk: Nashville 4 Edmonton 0

[GMofOilers]

Croissant is 3-4 as a starter with ~ a 3.16 GAA with a .887 GAA.

But, but, but the losses aren't on him.

Talbot isn’t much better.

Goaltending has been the weakness all year.

 

[Yablo21]

I'll reiterate, please explain to me which goal you critics expected Brossoit to save?

 

[Captain Fantastic]

We had 8 goalies dress for the Oilers that season (6 played). That’s nuts!

I remember that. Lababera was pissed on the bench that he was pulled them Eakins put him right back in. Who were the others? Dubynk, Labarbera, Faust..?

 

[Sam Spade]

Whens the media gonna start questioning Draisaitl 's game?

Who?

Drai got paid, he's done. And place don't say "his points are almost the same as last season", he is simply not the same player this year. Number one disappointment for me on the entire team.

 

[CycloneSweep]

Again, of course we need to score. Still Brossiot sucked and this has been going on all year. Games where the oilers have scored a bunch they have lost because of him. He sucks.

We didn't lose the game because of Brossoit. But he did nothing to help us win it either

 

[ZJuice]

my my did anybody watch gustavsson last year

I actually thought they were the same person until you said that name. Both were horrible

 

[belair]

Talbot on Saturday can't come soon enough.

Brossoit worst goalie in the history of the organization.

Dorian Gray, I’m telling you, this is Dorian Gray. Somebody sold their soul for last season.

I think you are really overplaying the Dorian Gray analogy. The Picture of Dorian Gray is all about living a life without morality. The Oilers definitely had some luck last season, but I don't think this season is some retribution from God.

 

[ZJuice]

I remember that. Lababera was pissed on the bench that he was pulled them Eakins put him right back in. Who were the others? Dubynk, Labarbera, Faust..?

Bachman, Bryz, and scrivezina

 

[Risingwind]

A good goalie needs to stop the majority of high danger scoring chances. A good goalie needs to consistently save your D's ass from defensive lapses. That's just the reality in the NHL. Just making the easy saves isn't enough.

In a way, yes. I look at the Preds defensive formation and compare it to Oilers... The quality of offense that gets through is just different.

 

[Soundwave]

Once you let go of the playoffs, things become a lot easier to digest. It's not happening and if it does it just a nice little miracle.

Effort was good tonight, I will take that effort every night for the rest of the season, no questions asked.

 

[RattsSSV]

Watching Saros' highlight reel from the night it just reiterates how poorly Brossoit has done. I don't recall seeing him steal us any games.

 

[KeithIsActuallyBad]

Once again having the second best goalie on the ice. Saros does his job, Brossoit can't match it.

 

[Raab]

Again, of course we need to score. Still Brossiot sucked and this has been going on all year. Games where the oilers have scored a bunch they have lost because of him. He sucks.

And if the team scored a goal or two I would agree with you. When the team has consistently shown it doesnt have the depth scoring or offence from the backend I can't agree. Is Broissoit one of the problems? Probably. Is he the main one? IMO no. Main problems are depth and no offence from the backend.


Edit: Also worth mentioning who's idea it was to run with Broissoit as the backup and not do anything to fix it. Chia should be toast, just incomprehensible what he's done with this season. To go from verge of Western Conferences finals to top 5 pick is incomprehensible given the average age of the team.

We won the figure skating! Im need a smoke!

Not just any god, The Hockey Gods.

Second one bad positioning, way to far out so he couldn't get across. Saw the shot coming and waved his hand cause he couldn't push over cause he slid to far out.

Third goal he was on his knees, also saw the shot, tracked it and all he managed to do was move his stick like a foot and shrug.

4th goal. 5 on 3 similar to the 2nd goal, saw he shot coming didn't even attempt to push off the post and just flashes his glove no where near the shot

Give me a break! This game was bad luck pure and simple, no bounces our way 3 bounces going for Nashville and a 5-3 goal. Thats it, even our first 2 PP were good, the last one was brutal however.

 

[Moregoalspls]

Draisatls contract is looking worse than lucic's game by game

 

[ZJuice]

Good night sweet princes

 

[Da McBomb]

We won the figure skating! Im need a smoke!

I quit smoking but this team making me wanna start again

 

[rickysusedsht]

If by next year you mean January 1st, then I applaud that move.

If by next year you mean the 2018-19 season, why the freak is Chiarelli giving up on the season after 32 games?

Not sure if he could get anything done in time.unless there planning on running talbs hard the rest of the year

 

[Soundwave]

Drai will be fine long term. He's a better player than Lucic or RNH. Can't blame the guy for taking advantage of Chiarelli.

Effort was good tonight, I will take that effort every night for the rest of the season, no questions asked.

I'm getting to this point as well. It's kind of freeing actually.

I just want to see a solid effort, and points every night from McDavid so he can snag another Art Ross. Anything else is a bonus

Ahh yes. "luck" we suck because "luck"
