GDT: Oil Slick @ Ducks 2/26/16 @ 7:00 PM

[WhatTheDuck]

Is this game on prime time in Canada?

Nope the main broadcast is Sabres @ Sharks

 

[AngelDuck]

Kesler is playing incredible hockey right now

 

[Arthuros]

Good time in the offensive zone, but Talbot's solid.

 

[Teemu Salami]

Clendening fits right in with the Oilers

 

[mightyquack]

Had some chances, but Talbot played well. Hopefully we don't bomb the 2nd period It would be nice if the refs would call stuff on the Oilers defence every once in a while.

 

[Frosted Tips]

Finally live hockey again! But what's the deal in Chicago? Completely redo the depth? I'm glad they're able to maneuver with like five bucks left in the cap.

 

[Lord Flashheart]

You can always rely on Kev to turn over the puck on the PP and take dumb penalties

Kev is our PO ace.

 

[mightyquack]

Kev is our PO ace.

I get it now, he's lulling the entire NHL into a false sense of security by playing like this in the regular season....soon as we get to the playoffs he's going to turn into Pronger

Wait, when did the Oilers get defensemen?

 

[mightyquack]

That Kesler-Pouilet sequence was ridiculous, amazing they can just turn a blind eye to Kesler getting mugged (on the PK no less).

Wait, when did the Oilers get defensemen?

Defencemen in the sense they are the closest ones to their own goaltender, not so much based on their play

 

[Ducks DVM]

The Rakell line with Vatanen and Despres is a nightmare in our zone.

 

[Teemu Salami]

Garbutt is our future captain

 

[Duck Off]

The Rakell line with Vatanen and Despres is a nightmare in our zone.

I don't understand how more people don't think we need a center for them. They get trapped like that a lot.

 

[Hedning]

Did that 1st period go fast by, or was it just me that wasn't really awake?

Anyway... solid period, but nothing special.

#47 looked a bit sluggish at some moments in that period, but had some good moments as well. Silfvers slash was also after the former fumbled a bit with the puck.

2nd now... Just work them and they will crumble. PP now. Let's do it!

 

[Ducks Nation*]

Ritchie needs to get outta here.

 

[bumperkisser]

ritchie needs way more AHL time

 

[mightyquack]

Garbage period so far by Anaheim

 

[snowave]

The ducks do not want to get in a run and gun style with anyone. It's obvious that's their weakness.

 

[Ducks DVM]

I see that we've given up on the whole "officiating" thing.

 

[Tecumseh]

The ducks do not want to get in a run and gun style with anyone. It's obvious that's their weakness.

Especially with Edmonton. It's all they ****ing do

 

[Ducks DVM]

Was that actually offside?

 

[Lyons71]

Ritchie looks like he's playing in his 4th overtime.

 

[TheGoodShepard]

Was that actually offside?

Certainly didn't look like it from my vantage point

 

[mightyquack]

I look forward to Hazy fawning over McDavid 6(?) times a year for the next 7 years. You'd think he just cured cancer instead of one deke and pass with how he carried on.

 

[Ducks Nation*]

Ritchie is worthless right now.
