Too bad we couldn't stop the peasant revolt tonight.

The players should be embarrassed. This was the exact same game as nine days ago in San Jose.

 

[YakDavid]

Not a good game by any means but I hope someone calls out reffing. Some questionable calls against and brutal non calls. Makes it hard to be a fan when a team gets this.

 

[RattsSSV]

Let's get wrecked.

I may have roused the rabble

Yup...its going to happen again (and again and again) too.

Another lesson.

 

[CantHaveTkachev]

Bah, we never win in LA
The classic “trap game” rears it’s ugly head
Hopefully a much better response in Vegas or else this road trip could get ugly

 

[Cloned]

Yup...its going to happen again too.

Another lesson.

Like I said in the GDT, consistency is a quality of a finished product. This team isn't there yet. Lots of progress made so far, but still lots to come.

Bad game all around. Smith set the stage by shitting his pants in the 1st. Lots of missed opportunities.

However, whenever the oilers had any momentum there was a shitty call the refs had up their sleeve. It’s difficult to come back from any deficit when you spend a 1/6th of the game on the PK.

 

[ZJuice]

Me feel sad after bad hockey game for my fav team

 

[CantHaveTkachev]

Even good teams lose to bad ones
Avs lost to the Wild tonight

 

[Bones2079]

That was a pile of hot garbage. Hope they had fun last night.

 

[Delicious Pancakes]

Team didn't have it going in the first period, Smith was off, and once they were down the refs kept them down the rest of the way. Give the Kings credit though, they outplayed the Oilers tonight.

Same old, same old in LA.

I wonder if someone says something about the refs tonight, despite the crap they deal with, its not often the team gets pissed off enough where guys are taking penalty minutes from beaking off

 

[Shaquille Oatmeal]

I am going to hate the Oilers until they go 82-0 in a season. Anything less is inexcusable.

 

[guymez]

Like I said in the GDT, consistency is a quality of a finished product. This team isn't there yet. Lots of progress made so far, but still lots to come.

Absolutely.

I am not at all surprised that they lost this game. Posted that this was a problem game in the GDT.
I think the Arizona game will be another potential problem game.

Sucks drai didn't get a point

What did he say?

 

[HugentNopkins]

So what the **** did Granlund get called for exactly? The geniuses on broadcast showed nothing.

 

[Jepprey]

Not going to blame that all on Smith because the whole team was asleep for the first 15 minutes. Wasnt until that late pp chance in the first they woke up.

That first line got absolutely torched. One of those games where they're probably looking past them. They obviously werent ready.

Quite possibly Bear and Drai worst games so far this season? Also, once again.. rough night with Nuge and Neal on the chances against.

 

[3IR]

Made it to the third LA goal before i shut it off. Until this team starts waking up for games, they're going to continue to risk being embarrassed like this if our goalie isn't red hot.
It feels like the difference in a game we win and a game we lose is whether or not our goalie shows up hot enough to bail us out of our sleep walking start to most of our games.

What did he say?

"I guess the League maybe needs Hollywood in the playoffs."

Oilers coach Renney fined $10,000 for saying “maybe they need Hollywood in the playoffs”

 

[Delicious Pancakes]

Sucks drai didn't get a point

It's not exactly like it was one of his better games though. He missed a check on the one goal against and didn't have his legs going tonight. I wouldn't say he deserved a point.
