GDT: Worst Contract in NHL History - Oilers v Leafs @ 5PM (of course it is, that is the only time the Leafs play)

[AnInjuredJasonZucker]

I obviously meant the playoffs. Cool, garbage time points!

Dude - You were talking about an older player slowing down and planning vacations at this time of year. You may very well be right about this player, but he's coming into a new system where the team is playing like trash around him. This is not the sample to write your thesis on.

We're actually ahead by a decent margin at the moment.

33-25 scoring chances with high danger being 13-11. Both in our favor.

Those are called score effects.

 

[NedPlimpton]

Hooray

 

[CycloneSweep]

It’s been even chances have been.. fact

Score effects are a thing. Team is dominating, has a big lead, goes into defend the lead mode and suddenly the stats look close or in the losing teams favour!

 

[Tom Brady]

Just a couple more please

 

[tardigrade81]

5-3. Holy smokes. Making it a game at least

Wah sumnov

Yep but don’t tell the trolls. Difference is goaltending

The people in Toronto genuinely seem like the worst type of people.

if you have been there and met them, yes they are....
a different world.
They really are a different breed.
They think they're American, but hate americans....at the same time, .they think they're Canadian, but hate Canadians.
a goofy little subculture, that everyone hates.

Those are called score effects.

So then whose fault was is that Toronto got 3 goals on 0.8 expected goals?

 

[Paralyzer]

Well Shucks. Samsonov is injured. That's not good...or is it?

 

[jesusbuiltmyhotrod]

lol sure Jan. That’s not how it works the oilers had the. Better chances in the first

 

[Behind Enemy Lines]

Lipstick on the pig. But good effort third period.

He will prove to not be close to what we paid for him in the playoffs, just like he is proving now.

Hope he's ok.. but ya... drag him off and let's continue this miracle comeback.

He doesn’t understand that

Yeah they were so awesome they got outshot despite more PP time.

 

[AnInjuredJasonZucker]

It was a game kind of like this where Janmark was the only guy with a physical response. I'd like to see the team rally around that a bit better. 2 more goals in the last couple of minutes would help.

 

[nexttothemoon]

Oilers and their awesome 3rd periods... but this was a LOT to ask for in 20 minutes.

 

[CycloneSweep]

lol sure Jan. That’s not how it works the oilers had the. Better chances in the first

lol no they didn’t. Oilers chances all game the point or distance. Torontos all were in close in prime scoring areas. The eye test and analytics sites show the same.

Skinners fault they had zero goals after two periods.

this teams issue is all mental. They care too much for personal milestones for each other and it does shit like this where they have to attempt comebacks to not look pathetic. It’s what they are.
They care for the small trophy’s, big one gets in the way of summer vacation.
