Yea that's what happens when you play a sniper in a grinder role on his off wing. it's pretty (frank)ing easy to see

it's pretty good stuff actually

SO Petry sits while Ference plays on....I understand that makes a whole lot of sense....I think our chances of resigning Petry have jumped up to like one million percent or something along those lines....go oil

Burn baby burn....

Honestly - if we win tonight Eakins is genious.... If we lose- he is a complete (frank)ing idiot... Best of luck Dallas

i already did. ad nauseum


you are my puppet. and i am your puppet master
- hugefemale dog77

no you really didn't

answer this

1) why was he played less than 5 min in the opener?
2) why was he demoted and scratched less than 2 weeks into the season?
3) why did he play most of the year on the LW
4) why was he not played on 5v3s?
5) why was he played on teh LHD side on 5v4s?
6) what was he supposed to learn playing with Gazdic?

Umm ....
- Jeropotato

nice rebuttal again, you guys are great at convincing me that he wasn't put in a postion to fail

Good job

It's pretty easy actually, the guy is a (frank)ing idiot.

I make valid points and he does his typical "oh you blame him and him and the gm and him"

He can't give any good reasons as to why yak played 5 minutes to open, as to why yak wasn't given good PP time, as to why he played most of last year on LW with plugs. and on left hand point on 5v4's.

Eakins is a bad coach, Yakupov was misused = fire all coaches, fire the gm, Yakupov is our saviour.

He wants to act like an idiot then i'll call him an idiot

You disregard valid points that contradict your firm point of view just as much if not more.

That;s what i thought, no explanation, deflect the question, resort back to "fire everyone!! herpa derp"

My bad. Read a lot of the Eakins hate, got the poster mixed up.Sorry about that buds.

Also, go (frank) yourself.
- Jeropotato

Thanks, I will!

Such as? I addressed every point someone made towards me without resorting to bullpoop deflecting reponses.

Please, tell me what i disregarded?

I don't know, I've met a few women that flat out say they are crazy. While it's a new level of crazy unlike any other, at least you can respect them for being honest.
- Lahey

Well depends- is it a one night stand or you planning on marrying them- based on the conversation??

In the end MacT has a lot of pull here with Marincin and Acton. At anytime he can go against his coach. The issue is he wants to put some trust in his coach so I suspect he gives the Acton and Hunt experiment a bit more time.
- Lahey

Agreed, he is simply giving Eakins some trust; not blaming MacT for anything.

Just not sure what is going through Eakins' mind... It's like he's overthinking things and trying to be smarter than everyone else when in fact he's kind of an idiot. Why not just make the easy decisions? You take gambles on players when you have a solid squad and can afford a mistake or two. This Oilers team cannot afford mistakes.

Having Hunt up over Marincin is bizarre to say the least and scratching Petry is borderline insane.

this makes sense.

sure hope hes not getting moved though. hes our best defender.

but yes, its a illogical decision imo
- hugefemale dog77

Well based on what readers here say this is what im now thinking

We trade Petry and that way we can then recall the all mighty savior Marincin and since some people female doged and moaned and cried when Yak2 got sent down will end up getting what they want and thats Yak2 AND Marincin in the lineup at the same time!!!! so what if nuge is hurt clearly Yak2 is what we need

Then we fire Eakins and bring in another new coach and presto chango!!!! a team that will win the cup this year and winning 56 games while doing so!!!! Yay!!!!! rainbows and sunshine for everybody!!!!!!

nice rebuttal again, you guys are great at convincing me that he wasn't put in a postion to fail

Good job

I'm in line at the Tim hortons drive thru. Had to move up so I cut it short. Plus your point wasn't all that strong so I figured my counter point was solid.

I really hope you guys win tonight with this roster, just to see the comment section

^^^ Has to be the most dedicated HockeyBuzzer this year!!! Someone forward this poop to Ek STAT! At the very least he should get a free season or hat or something

Please, tell me what i disregarded?
- SpoiledByOil

Well you completely disregarded my point about keeping LD and Yak together with sheltered minutes. Didn't pay it a moment of contemplation. Which is fine, it's not like you're my lawyer or anything.

Burn baby burn....

I am trying really hard to not be the guy who cries about Eakins because I dont think bringing a new coach in every year will fix the issue but he makes it really hard for me on somedays

Not a hope in HELL unless Fasth breaks Scrivens 59 shot SO record!

- Jeropotato

so saying that's what happens when you play a young offensive sniper in a grinder role on his OFF wing isn't a very good arguement for why said player is struggeling? Cool

Well depends- is it a one night stand or you planning on marrying them- based on the conversation??

More like 15 minute stand

- RatedR80

It's not going to fix the issue, but he shouldn't even be an issue right now. There was no need to bring this ass hat in

Agreed, he is simply giving Eakins some trust; not blaming MacT for anything.

- NugentHallberle

Granted I've been under the influence for most the season, but I don't mind Hunt on the PP. Really brings something this team is missing. With that being said it's hard to justify keeping him up very long if that's all he brings. Then again he looks better than Schultz at times.

Well you completely disregarded my point about keeping LD and Yak together with sheltered minutes. Didn't pay it a moment of contemplation. Which is fine, it's not like you're my lawyer or anything.
- Jeropotato

So you can't play 14-15 mins a night in sheltered minutes? Only possible with less than 10 minutes? Why was Gordon and Hendricks out on a 4v4? Why can Yakupov not play in that role?

Not a hope in HELL unless Fasth breaks Scrivens 59 shot SO record!
- saskoil21

so you are saying there is a chance
