Post-Game Talk: Oilers def. Canucks - 3-2 (SO) (Miller, Garland)

[tradervik]

Myers’ brain writes cheques his hands can’t cash

Hopefully JT can get 1 more point so that when we discuss his trade value on the main board this off-season and refer to him as "100 point scorer JT Miller" we won't have people saying, "what? He's never scored 100!|".

Scoring is way way up this season. And the only on ice change were the new offside rules and cracking down on cross checks. Although they let Miller and us do them freely lol.

Anyways, hopefully we unload Miller for a 100 point guy value before everyone realizes 1-8, maybe 9 after tonight are at 100 or more, and 1-29 are all ppg. It’s crazy . Not sure if its the cross checking crack down or just a freak after pandemic year. Either way, let’s hope our Brain trust notices this and doesn’t overreact or takes advantage of this.

Please be the last game we have to watch Myers and his room temperature IQ.

he’s not my favourite player but man does jt miller have excellent fundamentals

Garland said in an interview a few weeks ago that he wasn't feeling like himself this season. Let's hope this is the real Garland. Now at 15 points in 13 games, with 14 of those points at 5 on 5. Over a point a game at even strength is something very few can do. If he can carry some of that next year...

Honestly, Chiasson also has solid fundamentals. Positioning and IQ is actually really good but he’s slow as shit. Not saying I like him at all but he works with JT for a reason

I know the Oilers aren't giving their best, but you can see why the Oilers struggle if McDrai is not going. They have no finish around the net.

Martin has only let in like 1 bad goal in 5 games. How does he look sooo good?!

This has been such an odd season for scoring. A lot players having big years late in their careers.

Kevin Woodley pointed to covid having an effect in that more goalies have played this year then any other season. A lot of teams dipping to their 3rd, 4th string etc.

I wonder how many GMs will have buyers remorse when they sign a, say Kadri, at a 86 point player contract and he never peaks 50 again in his career, as one example. Or Miller gets paid like a 100 point player and goes back to around 70s (or less.)

Does anyone believe Chris Kreider gets 50 again? At least he's under contract.
