GDT: Game 2 // Oilers @ Bruins // Oct 11 @ 5 PM MST // TV: SNET

[Skar]

We're in for another season of watching our team struggle to score more than 2 goals per game. Meanwhile Toronto will be pumping in 4-5 like it's no sweat.

 

[ToeMcDrag83]

I'm dead inside, but Yamamoto has had a good game.

 

[Oilers in NS]

Second game in a row that the game is decided in the first half.

Decided in first 10 mins. We had a few good chances throughout the game. That is my main problem with Todd, he just don’t have the team ready

 

[Oilhawks]

Does McLellan get fired before Halloween?

 

[nabob]

Problem is Drai always pouts when he’s not with McDavid. Dude needs to grow the **** up and deal with whatever linemates he has.

I don’t know if he’s pouting but you can tell that his energy level is just that much higher when he’s on the ice with Connor. He doesn’t look engaged most of the time when he isn’t with Connor.

 

[t0nedeff]

If he didn’t have to tow around a boat anchor and babysit a 12yr old he might have half a chance.

How is anyone but him responsible for his choice of Pejorative Slured no look passes?

 

[Aerrol]

I take back my statement from early in the 1st about less dump ins. This is infuriating to watch. WHY IS THE MCDAVID LINE *DUMPING*?!

 

[ohheyhemsky]

Man, these are just a bunch of scabs.

 

[Tobias Kahun]

If he didn’t have to tow around a boat anchor and babysit a 12yr old he might have half a chance.

Draisaitl is the boat anchor right now, quit making excuses for his garbage play.

 

[snipes]

The Canucks will finish the season with more points than us

 

[Mowzie]

That Nurse shot?

 

[iCanada]

Put bouchard out wtf.

 

[Oilers in NS]

Not unless you have very serious injury problems. Essentially it doesn't happen.

I hear ya.
As someone said earlier, Bouchard is probably our best D right now. That means he will get sent down

 

[nabob]

If he didn’t have to tow around a boat anchor and babysit a 12yr old he might have half a chance.

Lucic has looked like a faster skater than Drai through 2 games this season. Sorry for $8.5M you need to be better. Half the time it’s hard to tell who is wearing 29 and who is 27.

 

[FanOfSadTeam]

Pull the goalie so we can lose this 4-1

 

[McDrai]

Oilers pull the goalie and give up an empty netter. Good guess?

 

[Quality Oil]

4 players back to defend McD. Every team in the NHL except for the Oilers understand that he's our only proper weapon.

 

[Delicious Pancakes]

For the love of god load up the offense for this faceoff

 

[KeithIsActuallyBad]

Imagine watching this game and coming out of it thinking the problem is Leon Draisaitl.

This thread like my god.

I can’t wait until he’s traded for a 2nd pairing defenseman.

 

[The Moose]

Imagine watching this game and coming out of it thinking the problem is Leon Draisaitl.

This thread like my god.

Imagine watching this game and coming out of it thinking we only have one problem. We have a shitload of problems.

 

[Sanchez]

Benning out there on a 6 on 5 oh please fire Todd soon!

 

[Hopelesslucicfan]

Why is our 6 on 5 setup 10x better than our 5 on 4

 

[North]

I don’t know if he’s pouting but you can tell that his energy level is just that much higher when he’s on the ice with Connor. He doesn’t look engaged most of the time when he isn’t with Connor.

To be fair he’s been saddled with Lucic. That would drain the energy from anyone not named McDavid.

 

[Tobias Kahun]

Carlo is the most overrated player in the NHL, jesus christ he is awful.

 

[ohheyhemsky]

Yeah, f*** these scabs.

 

[nabob]

And Benning seals it.

 

[snipes]

****ing over this team
