I think the Oilers need to swap Nurse and Kulak. Nurse is trying but when you need surgery on something, there is only so much you can do
|
Can't disagree there - Nurse is obviously laboring. He didn't look good at all last night.
Ditto for Keith - he looks confused out there at times. You see flashes of the perennial Norris contender at times with those head up laser passes up ice, but then he's wandering somewhere he has no business being, or just flat out getting beat.
Let's hope they are both better next game
|
Can't believe it but nurse and Keith have be longing for Russell. At least Russell us going to be in a good defensive position and making simple plays. The random crap nurse and Keith do gives me fits. Over of our most solid games of the playoffs was after the headbutt incident.
Might be time to try 7D again and try to reduce minutes of our expensive leaders in D who are simply not very dependable.
|
So question for you. Do you scratch one of Keith, Nurse or both based on them having an off night while completely ignore the majority of good?
I feel and I've seen on twitter a ton from all his haters that Keith overall, have been pretty darn good. Yes he's had a few bad games, or makes a mistake bur for the huge majority of the time, he's been solid. Same goes for Nurse. He's clearly playing hurt, its limiting him but he still does a lot of good things. But I find all people focus on when it comes to a particular select few, is the bad. A guy could do 50 plays, 47 great, 3 bad and it's the bad a person focuses on.
|
I wouldn't scratch because we don't have better players waiting. I would try to reduce minutes and take pressure off though with the 7D option.
I think judging a bad play needs to consider the intent of what the player was trying to do. If it is risk taking to try to create offense I think it is easier to accept when something goes wrong. When it is just absentminded wandering out of position or needless rushed plays, like throwing a puck at a teammates knee right after they recovered from falling down. Harder to accept. Those are just dumb plays with almost no potential benefit to the team. Most likely they were going to result in good chances or goals against.
What do you do with these players. Nurse is just buckling under pressure a bit. His physical talents that let him compensate with great skating have been hampered by injury. Keith is unapologetically just being Keith, he wants to just do whatever out there. Reduced minutes is probably the only option for both.
