I think I'll go outside and watch the light show and hope they come back.

 

[CupofOil]

Not really. He isn't being tested.

Neither is Skinner.

 

[TKB21]

Can't even yell at the tv anymore. I'm just sad and depressed now.

I can’t watch anymore, I’m to angry and completely confused at how stupid every player on this team can be…

 

[VainGretzky]

Don't worry that soft goal won't faze Skinner but don't worry the next one won't either SIGH

 

[Tobias Kahun]

Ceci f***ing tipped that shot

Probably hits skinner in the crest if not

Skinner and Ceci the gift that keeps on giving

That goal is 100% on Skinner.

Ceci sucks, but that goal isnt evidence why.

 

[Echodek]

We can’t even say “oh we just need to give Skinner a lead so he can settle down”, because we all know how Skinner handles leads

 

[Ritchie Valens]

If you don't think the play of Skinner is affecting the rest of the team and how they're playing, I question if you've ever played sports. When you KNOW, deep down, that you have such a massive, massive weak hole on your team it absolutely affects the team and how they play.

It’s so f***ing deflating. They NEED to get a #1 goalie in the offseason.

 

[Pavel10]

Ceci is so f***ing bad. I hold my breath every time there is a Canucks entry.

 

[dss97]

Need to have one of the great 3rd periods we’ve had all year. Still a very winnable game with a fresh sheet of ice and a rested PP

More shots please.

 

[ZJuice]

You guys are being mean to Skinner. Why can't we blame Schwartz and Holland?!

 

[North Cole]

PP to start 3rd. Get it back.

Zadorov with a perfect shot over the worst stick in hockey Ceci. Skinner caught sleeping at his post not expecting a shot of that quality.

At some point you gotta score 5on5 though, not getting a PP in OT if you get there. Mcdrai loaded up because drai is hurt or the coach is trying to lean on a crutch but no chance anyone else is going to do anything now.

I didn't mind our chances at 2-2 if we could survive the long change period but of course goalie let's in bullshit.

Mcdavid is an absolute f***ing clown not taking that backhand shot. He's not the reason we're losing but you need to get your head out of your ass. It's round 2, get your shit together and try to bang away some goals.

 

[lopper]

This roster with an actual goalie and an upgrade on the Ceci - Nurse is a contender. What we have is a team good enough to win against LA and then get on the struggle bus when a team doesn’t play 1-3-1 against them.

 

[Not Canada Drai]

“ I need to hug the post, lesson learned “

One day he’ll become Hasek with all that learning. The thing is he lacks skill and speed.

 

[soothsayer]

Maybe Skinner is so calm because he's hopped up on ativan? Jesus I've never seen a goalie so consistently unprepared for shots throughout at game. It's over for him; you can't be a started with a head like that.

 

[Oilhawks]

Team finds new and exciting ways to humiliate its fanbase each year. The nonstarter garbage playoffs vs Hawks and Jets, getting swept by the Avs (at least they're good), shitting the bed against Vegas and now looking at one period away from going down 0-2 vs the luckiest bullshit team of all time with the most toxic fanbase in existence

JFC f*** this team

 

[ManofSteel55]

Neither is Skinner.

That's not true. He made some good saves that period. Then let in a garbage one.

 

[elmeroil]

They really aren't much different than the Leafs other than getting past a few rounds here and there. Have had some good reg seasons but this team isn't going anywhere with goaltending like this. Sorry to say but the stars and avs will torch Skinner. Even if they win this series, just can't see doing anything in the 3rd round.

It's better than all the years of no playoffs but man they are going nowhere with Skinner.

 

[OiledUp]

It's just a weird game. Weird structure. Weird pace. Weird situations. Weird reffing. First game was also kind of an odd one. Don't know why it is but it's not really beneficial for the Oilers.

Also some of the forwards outside of McDrai needs to start showing at least a little bit of life offensively.

 

[Pavel10]

Hey Holland thanks for getting players like lindholm and Zadorov on the team this year. Makes perfect sense why you're the highest paid gm of all time.

 

[Tobias Kahun]

I love how they are reviewing this during intermission, where was the missed highstick on Hyman.

 

[foshizzle]

At some point you gotta score 5on5 though, not getting a PP in OT if you get there. Mcdrai loaded up because drai is hurt or the coach is trying to lean on a crutch but no chance anyone else is going to do anything now.

1 goal from him in the playoffs. Terrible

 

[CrazyJoeDavola]

PAGING CAREER PASSENGER NUGENT HOPKINS, KANE, PERRY, FOEGELE, MCLEOD. WHY DO WE CONTINUE HAVING THE WORST FWD DEPTH IN THE LEAGUE YEAR AFTER YEAR. TIME FOR ONE OF YOU BUMS TO HAVE SOME PRIDE AND PROVIDE THIS TEAM WITH SOME OFFENSE INSTEAD OF WAITING FOR MCDRAI TO DO EVERYTHING LIKE USUAL

 

[FunkyChicken]

Too many coaching errors handcuffing the team.
Sticking Janmark with McDavid in game one.
Not playing Stecher.
Not pulling Skinner.

 

[CycloneSweep]

Just never f***ing learn, these assholes. They had everything in hand and then quit f***ing playing 2/3rds of the way in the second for the first game. They put themselves in the jackpot. Always shooting themselves in the foot.

And now they're down because Skinner can't hug a god damn post. They have no one else to blame but themselves for this shit. FFS this god damn team man..

They have 21 shots in the last 4 periods.
Skinner has allowed 6 on his last 23.

Silovs gave up bad goals last game too. The Nucks didn’t lie down and die. Oilers need to respond. It’s a 1 goal lead. Shit happens but keep it in perspective.

i am keeping in perspective boys have been mostly a no show top to bottom 2 games now.

 

[KCC]

Skinner is absolute trash. I told everyone that he'd cave when the playoffs started and he is. And the team is stuck with him.
