Oilers played one hell of a game against the Ducks. Played a sounds defensively, tight checking, no room for error game. The refs let the Ducks manhandle the Oilers like usual. Gibson stood on his head. Koskinen was great, they got a little unlucky and came within 17 seconds of a shut out. If they play like that often, they beat a lot of teams.
2 days later. With no travel other than a bus ride, tons of rest, they come out against the Kings and are flat and tentative. The old, SLOW Kings out stake them. They play a completely different game. So what changed?
Talbot started.
The loss is not Talbot's fault. He was not bad. He didn't make that BIG save at the key time but he wasn't the reason they lost. I thought that key time was on Kopitar in the 3rd but it wasn't a bad goal. But the team played different with him in there, it's obvious to me. Players talk about the mental side of the game and how they have to play with confidence. To me they don't play with confidence when Talbot is in there. They do with Koskinen. When Larsson missed cutting off that pass and Kopitar went in, I expected him to score. I think the team expected him to score too. I believe if that was Koskinen, the team would believe it was going to get stopped. That to me is a problem. I felt the team needed Talbot to steal a game for them to believe in him again. He didn't last night. They need to play Koskine for a while.
