Post-Game Talk: 11 games over

[StupidGenius]

Bruce McCurdy with an astute observation:

"How many games did we see Dave Tippett beat the Oilers the exact same way he beat the Senators tonight? 1-1 and you're dominating play, and you can't score, and they get one decent possession in your end and wouldn't you know it, some guy you've never heard of before has just tipped one home. ...and there's big Mike Smith down at the other end and you're never gonna get the tying goal past that guy."

 

[CravenMH]

Can you imagine Smith losing his mind if McDavid was being slashed , held and crossed check and no penalty was called ? The ref would probably get a water bottle in the head . At least the world would see it as it would be everywhere.

I remember Hitch bringing up all the obstruction he was getting behind the play during his brief tenure here also. But it was quickly forgotten as usual.

Hate to be a party pooper but we're 4-8-2 vs TOR/MTL

Think we need a pretty significant upgrade to be neck-and-neck - we're a bit behind.

The Jets/Oilers I think would be a seven game battle.

Kassian, Bear and 1st for Bertuzzi and a 2nd.

Why would Detroit do this?

they need defense? Ok maybe too late to sell high on Bear.

Don't forget the Leafs and their usual playoff performances

I meant to mention this last night, but that was Jones' best game of the season I thought he played very well

Considering he did something rather than his usual nothing I guess. But before that something he was pretty bad execution wise as usual.

I saw him make smarter plays and not hide away from engagement quite as much

Oh but come on the law of averages says that 1967 can’t last forever. Oh f*** ya it can and will.

He’s engaged enough most nights to my eye, what makes me very low on the player is watching him attempt any play, whether it be a center ice dump in, outlet pass, shot on net, board battle etc and seeing him fail to execute over and over and over.

GG Oil. Sens fans big mad calling the Oilers trash every game. Get dusted 9-0 suckers. There's no deserve in pro sports, you get what you get. Bingo!

Brooms out!

haha will be nice to go to an oilers game wearing my Sens jersey and not come out victorious for
Once

cant count how many times I’ve taken my girl there (Oilers fan, born and raised) and we just shelled you and I get up and cheer for a Sens goal and just turn around and crickets behind me, surprised nobody threw a beer at me lol

I’m cool though because I wear a Spezza jersey

 

[tardigrade81]

Sens fans bout to be real salty.

Lol they pulled out the best they could that game and actually looked decent but we’ve just owned them all year.

Be nice. We tried lmao.

Forgive me for posting off topic. Just wanted to mention I couldn’t access this site for hours today. Figured the Leafs must have made a trade and turns out they did. Can’t stop laughing that Riley Nash was enough for them to crash the site.

Imagine getting swept in a best of 17.

This has been a surprisingly positive post-game thread.

Well done Oiler fans.
