Post-Game Talk: OT Heartbreaker

[foshizzle]

Holloway is going lets keep him on the fourth line after his 2nd goal make that make sense. Foegele gaffed the first goal and wasn't very impactful at all during the periods 2 or 3 so why would you not swap those players? I'd rather have Samsonov in the playoffs than Skinner at this point its pretty sad.

Knob loves Foegele- that’s why

To say you’ll never support a player is a clown take. Period.

He’s cost the team 2 years in a row by being unable to make any saves, I’m getting close to hoping he gets bought out and his nhl career fails.

He can’t even stop a slow shot from the point sliding along the ice

 

[Pavel10]

He was a million times better than Skinner. He stole games every once in a while and always rebounded from a bad game with a great game.

They both suck shit. People that look back on Smith fondly need to raise their standards.

 

[Not Canada Drai]

Really annoying that their slowest, oldest, lamest players scored on 2 breakaways.

 

[foshizzle]

Also hey Nurse/Ceci is still a pairing. They’re awesome, keep playing them together.

You mean getting shelled 15-3 the last two playoffs actually means they aren’t good?

 

[nabob]

If Skinner plays like that again he should be out of the starters net.

If he plays like that for one period he should be out for good IMO.

Pickard should start game 3.

 

[GhostfaceWu]

Skinner has let in 10 goals in two games save for a lucky challenge he's actually statistically worse so far this post season than last like I don't even like Campbell but maybe he should be called up in case for game 4 cause I can realistically see Skinner giving this exact same performance game 3.

 

[Gnome17]

Skinner never makes the big saves other goalies make. I don't see us winning this series with him in net.

He craters in the playoffs. Not a big game goalie.

Yeah, this really is the truth. Whenever he looks good, its because the team is playing really well. He makes most of the stops that is expected of him, but almost never saves the high danger chances.

 

[Pass the Saitl Sauce]

Pickard please

 

[Drivesaitl]

That’s a rough one.

Skinner had a not so good game.

He was awful. Only reason it went to OT was 5 goal Skinner.

Love the effort on the OT game winner. Hardly even moves his glove.

The whole role of a goalie is to make some stops. Kings had about 7 scoring chances in teh game and scored 5 and hit a post and missed 2 wide open nets. This ain't good.

The reason the Oilers can never get a series sweep is goaltending. Guaranteed to blow 1-2 games in a series on goaltending alone.

I don't think we can buy out TWO goalies. This is 100% on management like all else.

Clown take.

 

[Captain Fantastic]

That Fiala goal was amateur hour by Skinner. Still ticks me off. Happy for Holloway.. That's it..

 

[Satoru Gojo]

It just shows how bad the goaltending has been for this organization

 

[MoontoScott]

Yeah, Oilers didn't deserve to win tonight. They played too comfortable most of the game. Skinner and Nurse were the goats but they needed more from a lot of the players. Support cast actually showed up

I didn't think that RNH had a strong game either.

Blame the idiot who signed Campbell. I don’t know why this doesn’t occur to you.

 

[ORRFForever]

Skinner not good enough, Nurse and Ceci leave the Kings best player all alone in the center of the ice. The more things change, the more they stay the same. This team can't get out of its own way.

^^ This. ^^

I don't think Skinner deserves the hate he is getting - no one saves that OT goal.

The D needed to be better in O.T. - how was Kopitar left alone?

Edmonton in 6. If you'd won, tonight, it would have been Edmonton in 5.

 

[OilerMcLord]

I thought that Skinner was supposed to have learned from last years' experience, and would be better this year...

f*** me!

 

[Heavy Dee]

It's the same 3 guys nearly everytime.

Don't forget RNH. Trash as usual.

 

[RandomGuy79]

Skinners time is done in Edmonton. Only a matter of time before he starts getting booed during games instead of Stuuu.

All the haters were right, he is a piece of shit and needs to be publicly flogged for costing us 2 f***ing cups!

 

[elmeroil]

No way you go with Pickard next game. If Stu drops game 3 then absolutely.

I think you do, the jig is up with Skinner. All the Skinner defending, look back to the 06 run and see all of the highlite unreal saves Roloson made. That's what gets you to the finals. Skinner isn't going to provide that elite goaltending ever.

You go with Pickard and you hope like he'll he seizes the moment!

 

[DrDrai]

Skinner better sit next game. This game is on him.

This game is on the shit team defence, the oilers are consistently on the wrong side of the guy every time. They just hand chances to other teams.

I was hopeful that this team had learned from multiple past failures, apparently not.

The only hope is guys like Perry lay into the team and demand better and people listen.

Nurse can keep his ass back in our zone BTW. Always rushing up to the ice cream van with no money.

 

[UHHHH SON]

This is why I hate this place.

Second year guy, wasn’t good enough today, but to say you’ll never support him is an absolute clown take. Embarrassed for you.

Do you even watch other teams? Show examples of fragile goalies taking a team places.

He loses his fundamentals when he is rattled. It’s so clear. Why was Doughty chuckling after his goal?

Clown take? You’re as fragile as Skinner.

 

[Moregoalspls]

I used to never blame the goalie and put it on bad defense more often than not, which is true, except when your goalie let's way over average chances against. Are they actually doing there job?

 

[Drivesaitl]

Pickard please

Skinner will say he wants all the starts...Again.
