Exactly
Why are half of the posts on National Hockey League Talk
either the Leafs or the Oilers?
Don't they have their own board

Because a goalie being pulled within five minutes and after three shots against, two of those shot having gone in, is strange and can dramatically alter the outcome of the game. Therefore, it is something that all NHL fans can discuss if they so choose.

All of you who don't like it are welcome to ignore it.

According to the HF hive mind, Scrivens isn't a problem. He cares so that means he doesn't suck..

Scrivens is horrible. I will gladly eat crow and say that.

Scrivens is good... So is Fasth. Not their fault they have ECHL caliber defense in front on them. Dunno why Edmonton fans always blame the goalie :shakehead

Meanwhile Dubnyk is rocking a very respectable .917 SV% with the Yotes.

But ya, the Oiler goalies are sieves. Its not the horrible team defense.

Scrivens and Fasth are an adequate 1a/1b duo. Bottom 10 in the league for goaltending for sure, but still serviceable.

seriously this oilers team is better then years past. they dont allow as many shots but their goaltending has been brutal this year. don't they have like 20 1 goal losses this year?

Are there any Oiler fans left actually cheering for wins? Everyone I know wants loses until Lowe and Friends are kicked out of the org. The sick part is, if we do end up last and get McDavid, the org will get a fresh dose of hope to sell to suckers to fill the stands again.

The Oilers D is bad but not league worst bad. Dubnyk and Khabi had way worse in front of them.

Watch the games and you will see how bad they are. Anyone depending them at this point hasn't watched them consistently.

Scrivens and Fasth are very bad.

this is 100% true. their D isn't hte best but its way way betterthen years past. their goaltending has been pathetic this year. :laugh: put in an average goalie and we don't have this conversation. oilers are 18th in shots against this year. its not strong but certainly not the worst out there.
