[Spawn]

Even when they play decent they lose.

Two choke jobs 2 nights in a row. Losers through and through.

Don't really care. We all know whose side the NHL is on.

And seriously the Ducks looked like **** for 40 minutes. They try that in the playoffs and they'll be golfing a week after we are. Look like first round exits again.

 

[ohheyhemsky]

I'll be first to say it: Those refs were pretty swell tonight, I tell you what.

 

[OilerTyler]

At least they competed in both games on this back-to-back.

 

[Joey Moss]

2.5 seconds left on the clock and Eakins throws out RNH to take the draw.. not Gordon, or even Hendricks. Really?

 

[McAsuno]

That last goal was ********. How the hell did they miss that obvious hook on Hall from Getzlaf? Perry was constantly allowed to crash Fasth without any call. Pfft.

Which one? There were a few to choose from.

 

[CantHaveTkachev]

deserved a better fate....played a really good game despite injuries and second game of a back to back

but they're losers and know how to clutch up and blow it when it counts

He won it...

 

[Del Preston]

- Anaheim is allowed to slash the goalie after the whistle without being penalized
- Cogliano can grab Hall and prevent him from joining the rush
- Getzlaf can hook Hall at the blue line

That's some solid officiating, specifically in the third period.

Great game by the Oil. They had effort. Losing a game like this doesn't sting as bad.

 

[Soundwave]

Proud of the boys on this road trip and haven't been able to say that much this year.

Don't know why you guys are so down on the team, this is the best they've played in a long time, the refs obviously are favoring the more veteran team here.

They've more than hung with two of the better, bigger teams in the league on a back to back, both of these games could've gone either way.

I would rather lose like this than win while getting outshot 40-20 or something ... that doesn't teach the team anything.

 

[Mr Forever]

Two close games on the road on back to back nights against two really good teams? I'll take it

 

[McAsuno]

Which one? There were a few to choose from.

the one that lead to the last goal.

 

[yukoner88]

I blame Jack Michaels for saying shut out early in the 3rd

 

[McJeety McJeet]

Really looking forward to the end of this season. Just a grind, can't imagine what the players feel like.

 

[Spawn]

What we learned:

- Anaheim is allowed to slash the goalie after the whistle without being penalized
- Cogliano can grab Hall and prevent him from joining the rush
- Getzlaf can hook Hall at the blue line

That's some solid officiating.

Can also add:

Good teams only need to play 10 minutes of solid hockey to beat the Oilers.

 

[McMozesmadness]

The Ducks are in trouble.

The had to get the refs to give them the game.

Still, like last night I'm very happy with the game, effort was good, the kids were good, and were still ahead of Florida.

 

[ohheyhemsky]

In the end, we were given two grade A effort games back to back against two powerful and ref-aided Californian teams, and we lost both of them without getting a single point.

That's perfect.

 

[McOilers97]

I'm glad to see them at least play well for once in game 2 of a back-to-back.

With that said though, that was total bull ****. I wish we could take liberties like that and get away with it.

 

[Joey Moss]

He won it...

Not really.. it was a scramble draw, by the time Perron got the puck the clock ran out.

 

[ohheyhemsky]

the one that lead to the last goal.

Haha, again, which one? He hooked him 2-3 times in that one sequence. Those zeebs, I tell ya'.

They play like that against teams with actual defense (I.E. Not the Jets or the Oilers) they're screwed. This is shaping up to be another disappointing season in Anaheim.

 

[Aceboogie]

Eberle, y u no cover the trailer?

But, top line looked great. Klefbom looked great.

Don't mind this game.

 

[OilerTyler]

Would've been nice if the Oilers scored on that late power play. Way too much passing in that situation.
