I didn’t watch it but these OT losses are going to cost them a playoff spot, without hronek all you have is Hughes try 3 forwards.

Said 3 F’s awhile back all it is is 3 man keep away. It’s about skill & puck control.

I was listening on the radio and they pointed that out that the fans would jeer every time a hab fell down 😆
- Bettmanhatesus

Homers always do that lol

It was a physical game & they just out skated & out hustled us from the mid 2nd & on. Our D just cannot stand up to it. Slow & skate circles around them.

Desharnais is a pylon. Soucy not doing much of anything. Forbort not much better. Juulsen is Juulsen.

They only have to do it for 30 seconds or so and send Hughes out again.

For sure and they need to change it and I’m sure JR knows that buts it’s going to be costly, try Mcward and dpetey in the meantime.

You gotta believe PA is working hard to remake the D. Pundits speaking of needing a mid winger are idiots. Doesn’t matter what F you add they don’t play D. How long til something gives?

18-21 Well done Canucks! You fans should send Bettman a fruit basket for introducing the loser point. It's the only reason you're even sniffing a playoff spot.

The trade market just isn’t there yet.

Teams like Buffalo NYR Detroit are sucking & not doing anything to change it. Hawks are horrible but expected. Utah sinking like a rock not surprised.

Sooner or later they have to get active & the TDL is too late. Most of those teams need the longer runway & should help each other if a good fit or even a 3-way if necessary.

The metro sucks & wide open for a crappy team to rise to snag a PO spot.

Disgusting franchise. An embarrassment to Hockey.

Keep your kinky shit in the Oilers thread.

You should talk! Oilers can’t win unless gifted PP’s or OT wins.

Tie with a bonus, 3 on 3 isn’t hockey 😆

Winning solves everything. Let's see what this group can do fully healthy when Petey is back and hopefully Demko soon.
- ScotlandVonRickens

Unfortunately I think Demmer's healthy days are behind him. Thank gawd we got Lankinen ... need to sign him stat.

Hronek the forgotten man...

- boonerbuck

I honestly think Hronek is the 2nd most important player on this team to Hughes. The drop-off on D is gargantuan without those two.

Loving the Juulsen stat line. 0-0-0 in almost 30 games. That's gotta be tough to do even on purpose. Not one bounce or cheap 2nd assist ... and for the record I don't think he's played that bad compared to the Desharnais, Soucy, Filberts of the world. I'd add Myers but there are too many chaos giraffe apologists. Funny I only caught the beginning of game (I like that no commentary warm-up too) but when they threw to a guy interviewing Myers they referenced him as chaos giraffe like it was a good thing

Oil aren't even a top PP team this season. Talking out your ass as usual.

Wasted talent for years. If Vancouverite Skalbania never traded them Gretzky they wouldn’t be in the NHL.

Goes from a 1/2 to 4-6’s

For all the flack Miller earns he sure can be a force. Back on ppg pace through it all is pretty good. A healthy Petey will be a good bump when he returns. The PP just isn’t good. Hard to understand that one.

The way the D is going there doesn’t look like there is anyway to turn it around. The way losses are piling up there is no reason to not try D Petey. Banking on the trees on D has failed. Soucy has a revolving door of partners which doesn’t help him. Forbort is brittle. Desharnais is Abby material.

Joshua out or not has sucked. Too many players not pulling their weight.
