Post-Game Talk: Oilers def. Canucks - 4-3 (Horvat, Myers, Pettersson)

[82Ninety42011]

We need speed in the worst way damn were slow. It's painful to watch as teams just skate around us.

 

[Fatass]

Why would you guys want to finish dead last?? Don't you get it yet? The literal odds are that they get pushed down to 4th.

Finish fourth last and the odds are good we get pushed down too, no? Lower the finish the higher the for sure pick. Higher the pick, and the better the odds of getting a very good player. Unless, of course, we stay with Jethro/Jethrine leading the charge.

Imagine if we didn't luck into the covid playoffs and had to give Tampa our 1st this year.

I am sure Benning will trade the first round pick for Tyler Toffoli.


Book it

Why did Roussel start punching Poolparty?

 

[M2Beezy]

Lines AINT working. Try this next game, nice in balanced:

Miller Horvat Gaudette
Eriksson Pettersson Hoglander
Roussell Sutter Virtanen
Macewan Beagle Boeser

I have two take aways from today:

1. Tiger Woods should hire a driver
2. 2021 Canucks cannot hold a lead..

That is all.

 

[Fatass]

Lol had to leave at the end of the second.

Wtf happened?

We won!

 

[Johnny Canucker]

Draisaitl sounds so smart actually

how many points did he get tonight, 3? 4?

 

[NuxFan09]

No,
Steve Y carries too much weight in this league and he is going to bitch his way to changing the lottery odds.

Hey, if that happens then great! The current system is ludicrous. However, until that happens I consider finishing last the kiss of death.

[Blue and Green]

After seven pretty solid efforts in a row, it was back to the outhouse tonight. I can't think of a single five-minute stretch where I thought they played good hockey.

 

[PG Canuck]

Its crazy how much edler has clearly declined, and he's still vital to the team. Like we cannot afford to not have him back next year, who tf is going to replace his minutes as effectively?

Certainly nobody Benning is going to acquire by some miracle.

And I love edler, he's a great dman. But 2021 edler is not prime edler amymore and im really starting to realize how far he's fallen.

He would be incredibly solid in ideally a bottom pairing role, or at best #4 dman. He’s betting forced to play prime Edler minutes still.

This is why I despise the hate Edler gets because he’s being asked to play well above his means. He’s older and slower now...yet he’s being relied upon like it’s 2011.

This is f***ing absurd. I cannot stand the hate on Edler. Not coming at you btw, just saying in general he catches a lot of unwarranted heat IMO.

3 of the wins are against the Sens and one was a shootout. So four regulation wins in 20 games not counting the Sens.

 

[Mr. Canucklehead]

Lol had to leave at the end of the second.

Wtf happened?

Just my opinion - Roussel took an absolutely moronic penalty where he dropped his gloves and bloodied the face of an absolutely bewildered Puuljujarvi. Oilers were pissed and they played the rest of the game like a different team.

Not even Gretzky would make this team good

 

[Scorvat]

It would have nice to have our scoring guys get some time on the PK. While the Sedins were never fixtures on the penalty kill, I do remember them getting a couple shifts each game especially if we were down. Would have been helpful to have some guys who have some hope to score playing late

Green's babying of our star players, over reliance of crappy veteran role players and lack of trust for anybody under the age of 27 who is not a star (I'm calling a Hoglander benching any day now) is going to send this franchise back years

 

[LordBacon]

I’m glad I only watched the first period for the last 3 games
I just f***ing knew this was coming

 

[I am toxic]

I watched the first period. What the hell happened?

You stopped watching.

You ruined it.

It's all your fault.

 

[JiffyPB]

Should really start kicking tires on Pearson's contract. If it's going to be bad, at least you can start shopping him early for the deadline.

We know how this group... needs more time to get these things done as seen last Free Agency and trying to trade Dan Hamhuis in 2016

Yes let’s put our best player on the 4th line lol

I thought he was working as a landscaper now?

Even in normal times, ain’t no one getting fired. That’s been proven for 7 ongoing years now.

Canucks play hockey the way Tiger drives.
