Post-Game Talk: Fire Tippett, trade Bear

[Weitz]

I won’t be shocked to hear a vague answer on staying in Edmonton from McDavid. God knows I wouldn’t stick around.

 

[Roof Daddy]

I know everyone is going to shit on the team’s performance in this series, but I think we outplayed them for the majority of the series. They had the bounces and (non) calls go their way.

Disappointed, no doubt, but with some roster upgrades we wipe the floor with them. Game 1 and 3 should have been ours. Game 4 as well.

Bear can take a hike though.

 

[McDrai]

Dominated the analytics in every game and lost 4 straight.

I don't know if any team has dominated possession and been swept before. Series should at least be tied...

 

[Delicious Pancakes]

How did Connor get so open? Bear chose a horrible time for a change.

Puck was going deep and it was Larsson who drifted too far up ice and left Connor behind him

 

[BudBundy]

Feel so bad for Smith. He was epic. I was gutted yesterday. Now I’m just spent. Big changes coming to the team. Hopefully the right ones. Have a good night everyone.

 

[MessierII]

How long was Bear's shift when he decided to change? That was awful

Once again 97 doesn’t get it deep. The giveaway on the game tieing goal last night and then this. The two games he managed to produce he made a huge season ending mistake. Just a disaster post season for Connor McDavid.

McDavid and Nuge an go bail out the garbage WHC team Canada

What is Nuge gonna do?

 

[iCanada]

Ofcourss the Jets get 3 pps in OT.

 

[belair]

This one didn't hurt as much as the one last night. The deeper team won the series.

Maybe one day the NHL with have the refs call the game the way it's supposed to be called.

 

[FanOfSadTeam]

f*** next season. Time to become a bandwagon fan. f***ers.

 

[dsi]

Did that shot hit Barrie’s stick and deflect? If so I’m not surprised, all these f***ing bounces

 

[Captain Fantastic]

I think we'll be seeing a totally different team next season. At least 70 percent different, Bouchard and Holloway in permanently. Leave Tippett in Winnipeg.

 

[Ninety7]

Tippet should not have a job after this

 

[Tom Brady]

I'm not even that mad right now, game 3 straight up broke me.

This series is solely on Tippet.

 

[Snipes45]

Winnipeg just played exactly how they needed to to win. Spend every ounce of effort shutting down Mcdavid and Drai (which is easy when they’re on one line) and then wait for us to make a mistake.

it’s boring, but it works, especially when our stupid f***ing coach refuses to split up the top 2 scorers who played on separate lines all season and smoked them 7-2 in the series.

2 years in a row he changes things up going intot he playoffs

 

[Pass the Saitl Sauce]

Well we all knew oilers weren’t winning the cup this year, onto the offseason which will determine the direction of this team

 

[IranCondraAffair]

McDavid turnover. Looked gassed. Could blame McDavid but really it points to a team that needed to play McDavid down to the bone.... I guess why wouldn’t you though... cept he was kind of out of it for awhile.

No kidding, he almost hit top-25 most minutes played by a forward. You can't win by playing one guy the whole game.

You know they didnt play the whole season on their own line right?

 

[Satoru Gojo]

Seems the team was more interested in getting McDavid his 100 points then competing in the playoffs to be honest

 

[syz]

Larsson took a real weird path on that overhead angle. Was he thinking of changing or something?

 

[5 Mins 4 Ftg]

We shot ourselves in the feet every single game. The Jets didn’t beat us, we beat ourselves.

Knew this wouldn’t be easy.

Roll up the sleeves time for Kenny and let’s fill some roster holes as our lack of depth was exposed - as was the prime concern.

 

[McDrai]

Oh yeah, don't go on the mains

 

[DingDongCharlie]

Hard to be mad right now. They fought. Guys like Smith and Nurse deserved better than this.

 

[Steve Yzerlland]

Not sure what else there was to expect with Tippett and Holland in charge.

Holland is past his prime.

 

[Studz]

How did Connor get so open? Bear chose a horrible time for a change.

McDavid a soft play and didn't get the puck deep. Wonder if he is gonna be as mad at himself for the blunder as he was as mad at others for lesser errors.

 

[CycloneSweep]

Sorry. Shore earned a spot on the team next year with his effort imo.
