GDT: #20 | "PROVING RNH IS A ZOMBIE" | Oilers @ Sharks | 8:30 PM | SN

[Jimmi McJenkins]

Game seems like a disaster. Also the Brandon Manning experiment is done, get this guy off this team and out of this city already

 

[Mikey71]

There have to be some upgrades to the bottom six out there somewhere.

Yeah, 2 of them were scratched for this game....

 

[Roof Daddy]

Everyone has played below average.

These nights happen to every team. We’ve played decent the last couple games before this one.

I’m not trying to single him out - Klefbom has been worse tonight - but I feel like there’s currently a love affair with Bear on these boards where people overlook his flaws. I like the kid a lot, but he makes questionable decisions and caves to heavy forechecking a fair amount.

 

[ToeMcDrag83]

Top line benched looks like

 

[Drai Fi]

Sure it is. You establish a culture of telling your opponents that cheapshotted your star and have had every bounce and call go their way to go **** themselves.

I was being sarcastic my friend. Doesn’t always translate through the internet.

I completely agree with you.

f*** the Sharks

 

[48g90a138pts]

Hahaha... total interference by Burns

 

[CycloneSweep]

Nuge had a 25% Corsi tonight

Tippett should provide some answers for playing him.

 

[harpoon]

f*** off gagner. embarrassing celly. hearkens back to the 2010-2015 days. loser celly. go back to the AHL where you belong.

Maybe a post game thread about how cellys are destroying hockey culture is in order.

 

[TopShelfGloveSide]

Tippett should provide some answers for playing him.

Post game should be interesting.

 

[OfCorsiDid]

Maybe he's a people person?

Just as you post this he gets the primary assist on a scoring change.

 

[Drai Fi]

I'm actually brown though, so the 'you people' hurts dude.

Hey man, no politics here.

that’s why we have the main board

 

[ChaoticOrange]

I’m a little confused as to how Patrick Russell is still on the team? What exactly does he do?

positive fancies, 7th among forwards in shots, 4th among forwards in hits, points in two straight, reliable work ethic, penalty killer. I can think of five guys on this roster I’d sit over Russell.

Well I haven't seen him out there and it's a nothing game tells me everything I need to know

Oooh nice. I'll get my loud and disgruntled older uncle to chime in. He's got tons of great insight on how everything is ruined.

 

[YakDavid]

I wonder if Tippet was told to play certain players because of the road trip leading to him playing them more and making a point tonight

 

[The Batman]

The jinx is back.

 

[nexttothemoon]

Sleazy team.. sleazy refs.. sleazy win.

 

[Sanchez]

Leave Drew in San Jose

 

[ChaoticOrange]

I wonder if the Sharks bench laughed as hard at his celly as I did.

I look forward to Jumbo Joe taking about what an easy game it was in his post game interview.

I mean, he should, he hasn’t had to take a stride all night with all the waterskiing he’s been doing.

See, he just had a nice meeting with the refs in the breakout room and everyone came out happy. He's a people person for sure.

 

[MessierII]

Had tippet pulled smith at 3-0 this could have been a game.

bear has played pretty well this season. He had a bad game. He would be best as a second pairing RHD long term.

He got a game misconduct.

 

[harpoon]

You guys really pumping on Gagner for being into the game still?

Just a couple clowns. No cause for concern.
