[GMofOilers]

Oh please. You've been trashing Talbot mercilessly for years. What a ridiculous double standard

How so?

He hasnt been good since the Talbot trade?

 

[TheSpecialist]

Just to be clear, Nicholson made it clear during the Chiarelli-firing press conference that it was not PC’s decision to extend Koskinen. That decision was made by the current management team.

Which is scary.

Exactly. But for whatever reason, people still seem to forget that. It's like they've been listening to too much Bob Stauffer. Blaming everything on Chiarelli yet not even mentioning existing management.

 

[Jepprey]

We gifted Vegas Koskinen.

It’s only polite to exchange gifts.

Thats like us giving 50 dollar gc and they gave us a 25 gc. We got boned.

 

[Ritchie Valens]

Nicholson said himself it was a group decision by who is still here not Chiarelli at that point so you should probably let them know instead.

I don't buy a word that man says. He's not going to publicly humiliate himself and senior management (MacT, Lowe, W. Gretzky) if he said Chiarelli negotiated it himself. That would make them look so bad. You're planning on firing a guy, but he's still allowed to be making deals. CYA...cover your ass. That's what that explanation was.

The Manning trade, Strome trade and Koskinen extension is enough proof for me he was still making deals on his own. The teams performance, tumble down the standings and mass amounts of non-renewals of season tix did Chiarelli in.

At least the game is over pretty soon.

 

[Cloned]

Is $4.5 considered expensive for a back-up?

It’s only .5 more than what we were paying before.

 

[flashy]

8.5 million dollar whiff

I'm a big fan but Leon has been really REALLY bad the last several games. Very poor effort level

Ya he should probably play defence and goal while scoring all the goals.

 

[AddyTheWrath]

The last several games? You mean like the past three right? He’s one of the only reasons we beat the Rangers.

He's been ok, very inconsistent. I just find it funny that you blast people for the very thing you do.

 

[rboomercat90]

I said 6-2 pregame. Close. Deserves a pizza.

Get the Mediterranean Chicken from Royal Pizza. It’s perfect for nights like this.

 

[Dirt McGintty]

Is $4.5 considered expensive for a back-up?

It's about average. I mean 4th liners make $6 so it checks out.

 

[Sanchez]

Is $4.5 considered expensive for a back-up?

For 3 more years too

 

[Del Preston]

"Dustin Schwartz does such a great job with the goaltenders."

f*** off.

[syz]

Oh they scored again.

Was the 6th goal glove side?

 

[DerpMorg]

Koskinen is a 30 year old goalie and Remenda called him a work in progress...

 

[The Batman]

Everything Chia touches reeks.

 

[Garbo Man]

Oh they scored again.

Was the 6th goal glove side?

No the shot was tipped in fivehole by Russell

I’m like 5000 miles away.

Where's the girl farting in the pool gif? That's pretty appropriate right now.
