Pre-Game Talk: Devils vs Oilers

[Connor McOilers]

Don't know if this has already been said:



This is ****ing ridiculous. How the **** does our head coach come to this conclusions after all of us, two babies and a ****ing house cat?

I don't understand how he's always the last one to figure something out.

This exactly.

The mistakes that Eakins has been making this year are just so clear avoidable, this more than anything is what has been the most frustrating for me so far in the season.

LOL, as usual the oilers are two weeks behind the average fan of this team. My god.

Playing devils advocate here... Keep in mind I'm no Eakins fan... But if the coaching staff/management were to make decisions in as much of a reactionary way as the fanbase does rather than give things time to prove themselves, we'd be even more screwed than we already are.

Oh, you're right in a sense. However, when something is so painfully obvious, like splitting up two line-drivers in RNH and Hall and your head coach is the last person to understand it, you have rightful claim to be upset.

Playing an Eastern team... I say we win.

LOL@ Eakins on Nikitin: We need him on that PP unit.




ROFL TO DEATH!!! MUAHAHAHAA!!!

Marincin will be in tonight.

In the pressbox?

 

[ohheyhemsky]

Time to call up Klefbom. One of our prospects in need of development needs to sit in the press box during this time.

Especially considering that the Hall-RNH-Eberle line is not good. Very overrated.

Incoming Nikitin hat trick:

Icing in the neutral zone
Giveaway leading to a scoring chance in the defensive zone.
Loses the puck on the PP

To be fair it seems that all our defensemen have trouble holding the puck in on the PP. Reminds me of Philip Larsen... sigh.

What about giving an incoming forward way too much space, or a free lane to the net?

Will be interesting to see what desperation looks like tonight.

Yeah, I guess they really weren't desperate about winning all these other games and were fine with early 3-0 deficits as there is obviously time to turn this around

Can you believe they've already had 3 4-game losing streaks and were not even a quarter of the way through the season.

The must-win games were three weeks ago. We are already into the evaluate for next year portion of the Oilers schedule.

Oh Yay. Another "must win".

This team must hold the world record for "must win games" over the past 3 or 4 years.

Go "Must Wins"
