Refs/Oilers clown-out another loss.

[McFlyingV]

Put Eberle with McDavid for the rest of the year to up his trade value. I love his dangles and nice goals as much as the next person, but I'd much rather have a heavier team that competes every night and scores a little less than watching him go through stretches where he's actually less useful than us playing short handed would be. If we had more heavy guys who compete then by all means he could stay, but we don't so Sayonara Eberle.

Love how TMac said the passengers let this team down tonight

He's the one who keeps putting the passengers in big roles.

I missed this game and looks like i didnt miss a thing

by the time this playoff drought ends, i will have been married and be putting my children into college.

When it started i was in the year i dropped out of college. I am now married and will probably having kids in the next couple years.

Who else can he out there though? This team has horrible depth due to injuries and MacT

Bingo. Its not like guys like Lander will produce. Another consecutive game where Lander is completely irrelevant.

He needs to be sent down asap when Nuge is back (assuming no other injuries happen *knock on wood*).

Actually, maybe even when McDavid's back

I find it hard to believe that in 48 games, Anton Lander has 2 points. With that much time. You'd figure a goal or two would've at least tipped off his ass and into the net by now.

Even Gazdic has a goal. It's unbelievable how Lander is neutralizing himself out there. And he looked so confident in the last half of last season.

Especially having a strong finish under Nelson and a pretty good preseason overall, I expected way more than 2 mere assists. I'm hugely disappointed in him since I rooted for him.

Gazdic has more goals than Lander and he kicked it in. Let that sink in lol.

A newcomer in Kassian already has more goals than Lander.

It is by far the saddest story on this team. I was personally pulling for this guy, but wtf happened to him? I just... I can't understand it. He looked like he was rounding into form at the end of last season, and while pre-season is pre-season against non-NHL lineups and hopefuls, he was looking like he picked up where he left off. And now.. like what the hell, Anton... what the hell happened to you? It's a really sad deterioration and regression in a player that I personally was rooting for.

He seems to have suffered a severe case of Oileritis. Unfortunately its incurable and fatal.

Gazdic gives a damn? The guy hardly ever finishes a check, hardly fights, and can't even play hockey.

 

[Gunnersaurus Rex]

Draisatl scored a nice goal. Then proceeded to turn the puck over at will. Hall did his usual skate into 4 defenders and lose the puck.

That game was completely worth the $200 I spent and the four hour drive from Calgary.

The last time an Oilers game was worth $200 was maybe the 2006 Cup finals games. Other than that, ummm...no. People need to figure that out. Value for the $$$ is not there and hasn't been for a long, long time. Why do people waste their money? I don't get it.

Gazdic can hardly skate and breathe at the same time. Hendricks is wearing an A. Pakarinen has spent time on the top line lately and Kassian is only a couple of weeks removed from his career basically being over.

Because it's fun when they win.

Haha ... wait, really, OMG you have to be kidding me. GK, the guy who never has anything positive to say about the Oilers spent $200 of his hard earned (presumably) money on Oiler tickets! And then drove from Calgary to watch the game. And picked a Preds game. That's the best laugh I had all day man. Thanks.

Oh, and thanks to Asuno for posting up the fancy little chart. I see Weber's name down there at the bottom. How bad does that guy suck, eh?

Gazdic is a guy who should never touch the NHL ice again. He's a 4th line player who literally brings nothing to the game. Never hits, doesn't fight, can't handle a puck, not a great skater, and is absolutely lost in the defensive zone.

I like him as a person. He's absolutely useless to this team though.

 

[Suxnet]

Yes, I'm aware Gazdic sucks, but that's the point. Skill doesn't mean jack when you don't put in the effort.

Playoffs are a dream now, but at least play with some pride.

 

[I am the Liquor]

Nurse has really been struggling the last 5-10 games here.

In way too far over his head and it's starting to look like it won't just be a problem that goes away on it's own.

Also I appreciate that Kassian cares but you can't be pushing officals like that. If the league is having a bad day that can be a pretty big suspension.

They are Shultzing Nurse.
