[LTIR]

Sekera the loser in OT.. letting a tired geoup of wild change was the end..
Letestu got owned aswell

 

[KeithIsActuallyBad]

The Wild could make car chases boring.

 

[JordanGalhanth]

Such an apathetic game from the Oilers. Yuck.

Fatigue a factor too. But still very frustrating.

 

[Del Preston]

Letestu got abused in OT.

 

[belair]

No more Letestu in OT please.

 

[Forgot About Drai]

Oilers looked exhausted. Terrible game. Happy we atleast got a point.

 

[RipsADrive]

3 out of 4 points this weekend is acceptable.

Too bad they couldn't pot one. I want Pulju back in next game.

 

[BoldNewLettuce]

yeah....you can't do back to back hail mary poke checks.....that's just.....well i guess gustavsson can.

 

[Mcnofool6110]

3 out of 4 aint bad.

 

[McFlyingV]

Letestu should never be on the ice in OT. He's way too slow. He's also useless on the PP, and a 2 goal game doesn't change that.

Anyways that was one of the most boring games I've watched. I'll take the point and Gustavsson adventure and move on.

 

[CupofOil]

Well deserved loss. Completely outworked and outplayed.

 

[Pointteen]

Gus... Poke check me once shame on you
Poke check me twice, shame on mejust kidding, what the HELL was Letestu doing? He just let Koivu get past him.

Boring game. 3 points in 2 games is okay. Too bad they gave one to Anaheim.
As much as seeing the Flames win pains me, I would rather them get the points than the Ducks.

 

[KarmaPolice]

This is one reason why we sucked so much last year: we used Letestu as a checking, 3rd line center, which he is NOT. He is NOT good defensively; he bled goals against last year, and I believe had the WORST plus/minus on the team. Thank god he's the 4th line C this year. But what the hell is he doing out in OT? McLellan is a huge idiot sometimes.

 

[oljimmy]

Soon as I see Letestu out for the 3-on-3, I said to myself: "He's too slow, he's gonna get beat in a foot race." Didn't expect it to happen twice in 8 seconds and lead to the winning goal. Pretty, uh, "gutsy" decision by Todd there.

 

[t0nedeff]

Letestu should never be out in OT. Like NEVER especially when they had that extra time with that review ******** why wouldn't you put out Drai and Mcdavid? Mclellan makes some absolutely bone headed decisions night in and night out.

 

[JSlick]

Oilers get 3 points, Ducks get 0. Not a bad weekend

 

[CantHaveTkachev]

got a point

didn't deserve 2

Wild games continue to suck

 

[NeverForget06]

Oilers would have gotten 0/4 points on that back to back in the last ten years... so ill take it... but I don't have to like it

 

[Reilly13]

Why the hell was Letestu on the ice in OT?

 

[VainGretzky]

Tmac man crush on Letestu so fn irratating McDavid one shift 3/3 again

 

[nabob]

Remind me to try and sell my tickets to the game the next time the Wild are in town. What a boring hockey team.

 

[ohheyhemsky]

I mean, I would defend Letestu out there on 3 vs 3 because the other lines are tired, but Tmac does this **** so often that the real only reasoning is because he's dumb.

Fatigue a factor too. But still very frustrating.

I'm sure fatigue did play a factor. But they needed to dig deeper tonight. This was a very winnable game.

It's easy to blame the Wild for being a "boring" team. But the Oilers never once pushed the pace out there. Very content to just sleep walk through the majority of the game.
