[Panda Bear]

Because we scored more goals than Buffalo, we gained two points and drifted further away from last place.

Tragic.

That's the spirit!

We're the wiener!

 

[McAsuno]

we winnnnnnn hooray.

 

[Evil Ernie]

I personally think that wins have a lot more benefit, but I know what the OP is saying.

 

[dem]

Holy crap

We gave up 44 shots to BUFFALO??

What the hell is going on? We have taken the suckage to a new level lately.

Every time I hear Hendricks speak I like what he has to say. Give him the C.

Is it considered trolling if people go to other team's threads to brag about losing?

 

[Mcnofool6110]

Well, at least we're not as bad as Buffalo? *shrug*

My wife wanted to watch The Bachelor while I was watching this game so I changed the channel.

Does buffalo have a consensus on a player if they're picking first overall?

 

[Panda Bear]

I'd love for us to have systems-related progress, but I just don't see it happening with this coaching staff. I'm fine with Eakins staying, but he needs far better assistants.

I get the impression that Eakins is a philosophy coach and needs detail-oriented assistants.

**** YEAH BOYS! VICTORY ROAD!

Our team needs scoring, but I have heard that several in the organization are very high on Ekblad. Personally, I would take Reinhart.

Stupid buffalo. They should be investigated for intentional tanking. Hitting posts on purpose, stopping skating to allow breakaways, bribing refs for early whistles. Ridiculous.

Please do. We don't want Reinhart.

 

[misfit]

Oilers win dispite their best efforts.

I can understand why some fans/posters wanted the Oilers to lose tonight, but it looked like the Oilers wanted that as well.

A battle between the league's two worst teams and that's exactly how it looked.

Hendricks played 15 minutes tonight. And was effective on most shifts. Hell of a game by him. Can't believe we got a player this useful for Dubnyk.

Bryzgalov got lucky with the disallowed goal (and a couple posts) but its so nice to be able to watch a goalie who knows how to cover a post and keeps his stick in position. Good for him getting the win tonight. He looked pretty stoked about it.

Marincin and Petry could be a very good pairing. Too bad the Oilers have no one to mentor them and no one to coach them.

I may have under-estimated Ott.

Sabres roster isn't that bad. Wonder why they suck so hard.

144 SA over the last three games according to Stauffer.

 

[KeithIsActuallyBad]

It's hard to beleive there's a team worse than this one.

that said Hendricks is a beauty. He's quickly ascending my favourite players on the Oilers list.

If it was I would've been banned YEARS ago!

We could use any of Ekblad, Bennett or Reinhart really.

 

[nexttothemoon]

Both teams tried their worst but in the end there can be only be one loser. We bow to the superiority of the Sabres suck. Can't say the Oilers didn't give their all though... giving up 44 shots.

Management? I would think Ekblad if he is BPA at the draft.

We are going to be in the same position next year so I doubt they press for a forward.
