Post-Game Talk: Nurse Skinned the Oilers

[TheNumber4]

Perry has done f*** all this playoffs. Why did we even bother getting him?

He’s a 4th liner. Should be playing 4th line and producing average 4th line stuff. But on the Oilers he’s 3rd line or top 6 when we experiment cause we don’t have enough top 6 wingers .

Looked like a non-contact back injury midway through the 2nd period. Oilers were up 4-1 and him coming up lame 10 seconds in the shift seemed to spook the whole team. They played like crap right after that.

non contact? Myers buried his forearm into his back.

Perry has done f*** all this playoffs. Why did we even bother getting him?

He's not a good player at all at this point and he's getting worse. First games here he was getting by on adrenaline and excitement. he's been nothing for quite a long time. We missed Henrique in this game, more defensively but also on his first line contributions.

 

[McClelland]

Even if we stopped playing after up 4-1, you cant let in some of those goals as a 1st goalie on a contending team.

Think it went to easy, so they tried to grind it out.

Sure they will come out flying on friday!

SPEAK UP SKINNER DEFENDERS IM LOOKING FOR A FIGHT

 

[Spawn]

4 goals on 9 shots once the team went up
4-1

Their 3rd stringer who was garbage tonight still managed to outplay our starter.

Two losses so far in the playoffs, both of them squarely on goaltending.

 

[McAsuno]

Yeah, this was an infuriating loss. Why did Knoblauch say that they would rotate L1 Janmark but then choose to stick him on McDavid's line the whole entire game. Doesn't call or use his timeout whatsoever after the nucks started getting momentum while the Oilers turtled defensively in the 3rd. I said it before that Nurse and Ceci would be a huge problem for this team's back end in the playoffs, and if the series against Colorado and VGK didn't show that enough, this loss tonight was quite evident even more. And yes, Skinner also stunk. But when this team is sitting back rather than continually attack offensively on Silov, then wtf is this team doing?

Baffling coaching decisions tonight.

 

[Drivesaitl]

Drai will play. And of course we can salvage this. It’s only 1 game. A 1 goal game at that.

But still Skinner in net.

 

[CycloneSweep]

So our starting goalie is worse than their third stringer? Good luck sleeping tonight all. I'll be grinding my teeth into dust.

Skinner had a better save%

 

[DrDrai]

Skinner doing post game? Guy is a fraud. 2nd year of this BS

What did he say?

“Ya, I thought we had control and then a couple find there way through me, I didn’t see the point shot at all. I’ve got to be better and I’ll learn from this a be better for the next one”?

Was I close?

 

[Tobias Kahun]

He definitely has some playoff games where he’s pretty invisible. Just doesn’t seem to fight through the contact.

If he is.

Skinner - "I thought I played good, saw the puck well, some unlucky bounces, cant win them all"

 

[Stoneman89]

This makes Fridays game must win. We win and we have a chance. We lose and I think this one is done in 4 or 5.

 

[CycloneSweep]

But still Skinner in net.

And Nurse on the backend.

 

[Drivesaitl]

Drink more.

Thats my plan, forget this night ever happened.

Thats a good plan but would take a lot of alcohol. f***, I'm out of ice...

Yeah the Oilers really deserved to win that game.

 

[UpHere]

i hate this team so much

 

[Oilhawks]

If he is.

Did he actually say that?

 

[Frank the Tank]

non contact? Myers buried his forearm into his back.

I'm dealing with ESPN who didn't show that. They only showed Draisaitl's 10 second shift.

 

[Cloned]

Carrick likely back in next game I think.

I’d start Skinner but if he lets in even one questionable goal it should be Pickard in right away.

 

[CycloneSweep]

What did he say?

Was I close?

Don’t listen. It’ll infuriate you.

 

[bobbythebrain]

Darnell Nurse is Pronger -lite. Pepperige Farm remembers

 

[94 Oil Drops]

Eh… not that concerned. This team always ALWAYS seems to need to get slapped around once or twice before they wake up. Frustrating as hell and it’s tough to see how that kind of chronic mental weakness can win a cup, but the reality is that this is their M.O.

Given the fact that Leon might miss some time I'm incredibly concerned. The team completely stopped playing after he got injured. Sitting on this choke job for 2 days after anticipating it for so long f***ing blows too.

 

[KeithIsActuallyBad]

Don’t listen. It’ll infuriate you.

Why do people listen to post game interviews as if they mean anything?

 

[Tobias Kahun]

Did he actually say that?

No, but im sure thats what he would say.

He never takes accountablity.

I’m not sure you can defend many players tonight. Elkholm maybe? Maybe Hyman too. Drai for being courageous? Everyone else ranks in the bad to awful category

 

[Captain Fantastic]

Have no idea. I'm asking if he's doing post game. Always the same bull shit "no accountability" answer so expect that. So tired of this up and down nonsense from him.
