Unfair Huggy Bear
Infuriating that playing their only five solid players into the ground hasn't cost them whatsoever.
It's a hard decision. Nowadays working with the goalie coach is very close to game action so IMO rust isn't an issue. Might need to go to desmith just to wake up the team. But I would prefer Demko.Wondering about it DeSmith …
They are conditioned to this and are experienced enough to make it to the WCF....however I fully expect them to hit a wall if they make it there.Infuriating that playing their only five solid players into the ground hasn't cost them whatsoever.
We don't need a power play coach, we just need players willing to put in the effort.Do we ever. I think we need a genius offensive guru, Adam Oates would be fine. Newell Brown is old news.
I personally have always felt like these guys are too cocky and you can't teach them a thing. Petterson always dicks around and and gave away breakaways in the past and we've lost games as a result. Miller is Miller but is actually coachable now, and Hughes is not being coached effectively to use his amazing skill set. I think we need a hall of fame guy to get these personalities to get off their high horse and get the PP to where it should be. Shoot the puck for crying out loud.
Look at our personnel, we are majorly under-achieving.
15 shots ... like c'mon that's pathetic, you don't need Gretzky to tell you can't score if you don't shoot.
So as long as he can skate he's a better option than Silovs?Personally I would. He's been skating for a bit now. A lot of Silovs pre scout is getting exposed recently.
Yup I completely agree I hope the boys go out to start game 7 playing balls to the wall and leave it all out there and feel proudFact is this - we should have been f***ed immediately with Demko going down off the bat. That is a death sentence 99% of the time, and if Nashville wasn't completely anemic up front it would have been.
Instead, we got some absolutely incredible memories out of the last few weeks. The Benning Era feels like a lifetime ago now.
Whatever happens, it was a nice break from the absolute misery the last decade has been.
Sure, since I feel like this is what you want me to say so you can say whatever it is that you want to say next.So as long as he can skate he's a better option than Silovs?
OK then has he taken any shots by anybody other than Ian Clark? Or is that not important.Sure, since I feel like this is what you want me to say so you can say whatever it is that you want to say next.

We don't need a power play coach, we just need players willing to put in the effort.
You have an extra player onj the ice and you're getting beaten to every loose puck and losing every battle along the boards. That says it all.
It’s more complicated than that… we need to shift away from having Hughes on the top. His shot from the top is not scary enough or accurate enough so they don’t really pressure that and basically pressure Miller and Petey.We don't need a power play coach, we just need players willing to put in the effort.

Or more than 2 grade A scoring chances lolHave to put 30 shots on skinner to have a chance
Exactly this. It needs not be said if you think they are "playing with house money" or "they weren't expected to do shit this year". Saying that stuff is just an open ended excuse to use if they do lose.Couldn't have said it any better. Will be even sweeter when we win!
what did he say?Everyone listen to Bieksa and everything positive motherf***ers!!
Love this confidence! Gotta focus on that positive energy!The are trolling the oilers, intentionally losing this game to give them a false hope, just to crush them in game 7.
