Post-Game Talk: Skinner. That’s it, that’s the thread title.

[Jimmi McJenkins]

So what you're saying is we're going to miss the tap-in.

No, I think it might be lopsided.

Give Campbell both of these starts vs ANA

No, give Skinner the start, try to get him to 30 wins.

Agreed

 

[BlackDogg]

Don't take the ducks lightly at all, but damn

So how low can we go?

I swear he's looking more and more crazed everyday too. Its like he's plugged into something. Not in a good way. I can't imagine anybody being like this all the time. I wish he wasn't amped to 11 during the broadcasts.

just another comment on broadcast but the other game they were 15secs late showing the action in one period and puck was already in opponent zone. This has gotten way beyond just missing faceoffs now. They missed extended play. It was Debrusk talking on about something. But no reason they can't switch to the live action as that is occurring.

Finally looking at Bob Stauffeur sweat and spit. jebus. I think he ate Terry Jones.

Jack gives off strong only-child vibes.

He seems genuinely happy for Skinner after a win. The guy is just extremely hard on himself(his own worst enemy)

 

[Jimmi McJenkins]

Damn, he might get it.

 

[Mr Positive]

Damn, he might get it.

Well it seems refs are so shy of giving Oilers PPs lately... I guess it's unfair to the other team

I think you guys are talking about different Jacks.

 

[McDoused]

Just popped on to say that I was fortunate enough to go to last nights game (first one of the year with my wife watching the kiddos) and boy was it a good one. I had seats behind the LA net which was a nice bonus. I definitely picked the right game.

Pretty sure the poster you quoted was talking about pbp guy Jack Michaels and not Campbell.

Or maybe I’m the one who’s lost the plot?

You're correct. I had two different pages going on my phone

Are things that are 20yrs old now considered ancient history? I better stop my Monty Python references. lol

Well...some of us are old enough to really appreciate classic comedy references.

 

[Jimmi McJenkins]

We got frustrated in spots, but this record is elite


The team was so good in March, Jack Campbell was over .500

 

[Oilers in NS]

No thanks. I prefer my commentary to he commentary, not 15 minutes of useless stats and flirting with Louie, followed by some dictionary words and screaming in the final minute.

Jack is more meant to be a horse track announcer
Down the stretch they go

 

[Evilsports]

You know guys I knew Stuart Skinner reminded me of someone but I couldn't put my finger on it until just now. It's Doyle Parrack of the 1946-1947 Chicago Stags basketball club. I mean they both were visibly men and not only that but they both totally played sports in a professional league!

Am I right Bruce?!

 

[nally]

This was good, lol

7-3 Oilers tonight to clinch the playoff spot.

Drai gets the hat trick to reach 50 goals and Nuge reaches the 100 point plateau.

Need a GDT! Oilers 7-2 tonight. McDavid going to be trying to set up Nuge and Draisaitl all night long.

Nailed it.
No time for stories or flirting with Louie...he can just scream for the last 15 seconds too.

 

[CycloneSweep]

I think Nuge likes March. There was a few years ago when the hottest line in the NHL was Pouliot - RNH - Eberle.

 

[5 Mins 4 Ftg]

Nailed it.

Jack Michaels is an Edmonton treasure. Love me some Jack.

Seems like a nice enough fellow...terrible hockey announcer.

He can tell inane stories, scream inappropriately, and flirt with Louie on his own time.

Yup, surprised not to see one. The mods can transfer these posts when the thread comes up.

Respectfully disagree, best announcer there is despite his straying into the inane from time to time. Love his calls! DOWN THE STRETCH is classic. The pleasure was all ours!
