Post-Game Talk: Oilers 2, Blackhawks 1 (OT)

[Paperbagofglory]

Matt Benning is so bad he made Garrison look like the good one on that pairing. Quite an accomplishment.

"I'd like to buy an 'e'."

Seek a deek, Tim Peel?

 

[Mez]

Remember last year at this time when we were 2-8...dont miss that!

 

[CycloneSweep]

Winning lots of 1 goal games. That's what you need to do to be good.

 

[Zerotonine]

Mcdavid was off by his standards today but of course pulls off the game winner.

Talbot was fantastic tonight, was it rest? Or was it the way that Mikko played the day before??? i hope its the later and they push each other

 

[FlameChampion]

Not our best game but they played hard. Its important to win games like this.

Talbot was great.

Thought fourth line played well. Definitely their best game of the season. Quennvile had his big boys out there quite a few times against the fourth line and their held their own.

Really liked Cagguilas jump in the game. Really liking Reider lately.

Defense was pretty solid. Bent but they didnt break.

We are playing great lately. First in the division even with a crazy tough schedule to start.

 

[NeverForget06]

Klefbom is a stud. You can tell he is actually healthy this year. Workhorse.

We can all march around with our pitchforks and torches chanting about the demise of TMac but this team just went 6-1-1 against the best of the NHL.

 

[Hopelesslucicfan]

I was only half paying attention, but it seemed like mclellan was playing strome way too often for how poorly he seemed to be playing. Nice to get the win despite the coach again however. Too bad though, JP's never gonna get back in at this rate.

 

[Sanchez]

Second star was Keith? Drew you're still an idiot but woooo first in the division!!!!

 

[Jumptheshark]

back to back wins

yeah baby

 

[Aerchon]

Talbot steals one. Its so much better when a goalie has some competition for starts. Easily the best game by Talbot this year.

Draisaitl with the sick perfect pass.

Solid road back to back game.

Still not a fan of many things on the team right now but a 6-3-1 record with a tough schedule to start is exactly where we need to be.

 

[GMofOilers]

2 in a row for Talbot that hes played pretty good. Must be feeling the heat from Koskinen. Great to have some competition.

Maybe Chia knows more then the fans do?!?!

 

[Paralyzer]

Remember last year at this time when we were 2-8...dont miss that!

Who cares about last year? THIS IS THE YEAR BABY!

 

[ChaoticOrange]

This team is just finding ways to win games and bank points. We’ve set ourselves up nicely here.

 

[JSlick]

that might have been Talbots best game so far

he looked solid all game long

 

[McTedi]

I was only half paying attention, but it seemed like mclellan was playing strome way too often for how poorly he seemed to be playing. Nice to get the win despite the coach again however. Too bad though, JP's never gonna get back in at this rate.

I'd just as soon the team win, imo Strome has been solid.

 

[Soundwave]

Did Kevy999 show up after going on his McDavid rant again? lol.

 

[KeithIsActuallyBad]

Talbot has been excellent the past two games. This is why you stick with this guy.

 

[McFlyingV]

Did Kevy999 show up after going on his McDavid rant again? lol.

Nope he always pops in says something stupid and then disappears for weeks or months at a time.

 

[McTedi]

Second star was Keith? Drew you're still an idiot but woooo first in the division!!!!

Keith was a beast out there, a large part of the reason why mcD was so quiet.

 

[Staghorn]

Talbot has been excellent the past two games. This is why you stick with this guy.

If Koskinen could sub in for 20 or even 25 games though, we'd have a fresher Talbot later in the year... We need that too.

 

[MessierII]

1st in the pacific

 

[Soundwave]

I think it's time to take Yamamoto off that top line though. He's not really meshing with McDavid and looks overwhelmed. 3rd line with Strome is the correct spot for him.

 

[McFlyingV]

Klefbom is a stud. You can tell he is actually healthy this year. Workhorse.

We can all march around with our pitchforks and torches chanting about the demise of TMac but this team just went 6-1-1 against the best of the NHL.

Yeah Klefbom is a beast this year. I'd like to see him start putting some goals up, but his defensive game has been exceptional. He's just eating up so many minutes, his gap control has been excellent, he's out muscling guys all game long, and he's making smart short passes to get out of trouble. Very impressed with him.

 

[Zaddy]

Great game from Talbot.

4th line was very good, probably our best line this game.

Klefbom played almost 26 minutes and to my eye only had one mistake all game (that didn't really result in anything dangerous anyway).

Great to grind out a win in a game like this.
