Post-Game Talk: Oilers 3 Bruins 2 in shootout

[Spawn]

Good win. Well played game. Nilsson great again. Eberle with a great shootout goal. Oh, and Zdeno Chara is still easily a top pairing d-man. I remember people arguing in the off-season that he was done. Dude's still a beast on the ice.

Nilsson the MVP.

 

[DipsyMcDoodles]

Nilsson looks more confident every game he's in.

 

[McPuritania]

Finally won one for a guy against his old team.

Nilsson is the man.

 

[BoldNewLettuce]

In soviet russia.....woods **** on bear...

 

[suddeninterest]

Nilsson looks ****in legit

 

[Joseppi]

Feels good, man

 

[Pointteen]

Nilsson with a killer performance.
I am hoping Eberle feels like that is a monkey off of his back.

The end of the third wasn't exactly a good performance. They truly should have scored in OT a few times, but take what you can get.

 

[Del Preston]

Undefeated in December!

 

[Forgot About Drai]

Nilsson, Hendy and Letesu our 3 stars tonight.

What the..

 

[McOilers97]

It appears that we should establish the equivalent of the DH in baseball. Make Eberle the designated shoutout specialist. Only sees the ice if we get to a shootout.

 

[Mav3rick07]

We're 2-1-1 in our last four games.


Points in three out of four, not too shabby.

 

[oXo Cube]

How many wins did Stauffer predict we would win in December?

 

[McPuritania]

Undefeated in December!

Savor it, fellas.

 

[McAsuno]

Undefeated in December!

We're on a streak!

 

[dem]

Not the confidence booster our top lines needed..

 

[Kepler 186f]

Nilsson was terrific.

 

[McPuritania]

Happy with our physicality tonight, too.

Not the best game, but I'll take it.

 

[McAsuno]

Not the confidence booster our top lines needed..

Looks like Ebs gained some confidence from the SO goal. Guy was smiling with Nurse at the center ice. We'll see though.

 

[Old Boys Club]

Undefeated in December!

Until we face the Dallas Benklinguins

 

[Hockey Nightmare]

People shouldn't complain over who the coaches send out on shootout. They do practice this stuff. They know who's the hot hand in practices.

 

[Burger Baron]

Good win, but the same guys are just not playing at the level they need to be

 

[McDeathbyCheerios*]

Not the confidence booster our top lines needed..

Might be one for our top top line. Shows them other people can score. Might be a little stress off of them.

Eberle was getting crapped on all night in the GDT, but the Hall-Draisaitl-Eberle line created a lot of chances all night. Eberle played a strong game. He's the whipping boy right now along with Nuge, but there was nothing wrong with his game tonight.

 

[CupofOil]

A bit too sloppy in the 3rd but take the 2 points and run. They need to get some wins regardless of how they get them.
Good to see the hard workers get rewarded with goals.

Nuge and Eberle still fighting it big time, it's hard to watch. The effort level with those two isn't close to where it should be.

Nilsson looks really good. Still need a bigger sample size to be fully confident, been burned before.
