GDT: Game 1 // Oilers @ Devils // Oct 6 @ 11 AM MST // TV: SNET

[Soundwave]

Looks like the whole team played Fortnite till the wee hours

Did they actually play Fornite or just sit around watching McDavid play Fortnite?

 

[McClelland]

We get hammered in own zone almost every time Benning is in there, he cant win battles and cant skate out of trouble!

 

[nabob]

Shannon saying Talbot has been really solid so far today

 

[Del Preston]

Welcome Del Preston. I assume this is your first time watching the Oilers!

It has never been as bad as that period was.

 

[MaxR11]

he always looks like this unless he's with mcdavid. Lol @ that contract, so mind-blowing . No one else who plays well with mcdavid gets paid, except drai

100%... ive never been convinced drai could flourish consistently without connor. he's never shown it. hated the contract from day 1. a pseudo star is what he is.

 

[LTIR]

Him and Draisaitl just don't work. Draisaitl has been the worst player on that line tonight AINEC

Drai Pulju just might work for both..

 

[McDrai]

11 shots in 2 periods. More than half of the shots coming from the blueline in low percentage areas. Shows you how trashy we have been in this one.
Calling it now: We're out of the playoffs by the end of November, Fire McClellan, and Gulutzan takes over as interim coach.

 

[oXo Cube]

Might have been the worst period ive ever watched the Oilers play live.

I can count the number of games ive missed in the last 12 years on my hands.

Yamamoto didn’t play. He deferred his turns to Draisaitl.

 

[Da McBomb]

Rattie not clicking tonight. Move pulju up there for 3rd

 

[snipes]

Can we just make a sacrifice to hockey gods?

 

[McVirginOil]

They always have to make excuses for Talbot. How about if Talbot doesn't let in 2 stinkers in a row the team plays differently and doesn't look dejected? how about that?

How was the Russell deflection a stinker? I’d fault that on the shot blocker

 

[Tobias Kahun]

Did they actually play Fornite or just sit around watching McDavid play Fortnite?

They all looted and gave everything to McDavid probably. That intimidation factor.

 

[Spawn]

That's fair. Talbot should have been better.

But if the Oilers are so mentally weak that they can't even muster a shot after a couple bad goals against this team is in serious f***ing trouble lol.

 

[LTIR]

OK, that was Pulju's shot on the 2nd line. he failed. Demoted to 4th line.

What was he doing with getting the puck on the net..ruined a perfect period

 

[McSpecial DraiBlend]

Poor women. She's not gonna be able to sleep tonight if you don't wake her soon.

Puljujarvi to the 2nd line #oiler positives

My wife fell asleep told me to wake her up if the oilers get another scoring chance, pretty much sums up that period.

 

[CupofOil]

McDavid must hate this. I feel you Connor.
Just like you, I hate this and just like you, I can't leave them for at least another 8 years. Unfortunately, I have a lifetime contract. Only death will cure me of this illness.

 

[McRpro]

It's like this team was just slapped together yesterday and no one has any idea what each other are doing. How can any team be so out of sync?

 

[SourOil]

If they don't figure this out quick, we are in for a very long month.

 

[Oil75]

Yamamoto looks just like last year behind the play, physically dominated and just plain not ready.

 

[Tobias Kahun]

Can we just make a sacrifice to hockey gods?

Yeah, they turned down McLellan, we have to find something else.

 

[rickysusedsht]

Great Hall segment. Adding salt to wound ....check

 

[NeverForget06]

"It's a long season folks" --- yah you're telling me John Shannon

 

[nabob]

We get hammered in own zone almost every time Benning is in there, he cant win battles and cant skate out of trouble!

Bear would be a better option. If Benning was a LHD he would never have made the NHL.

 

[Ruok]

Hall has not scored yet #postives
