Ugh, that's just what this team needs, to lose another D-man. Hopefully Koekoek is ok....

This would be a great point in the season for Chiasson to go on a goal streak. Let's see if he can keep it going.

Agreed. I dont know what happened during his black aces time but he seems like a different player. He will never be a team leader on offence but is playing a perfect bottom 6 role right now

Yeah, I think they're going to let this one stand.

Worth noting, the call on Draisaitl is fine if they call that consistently, but they don't. Tkachuk does 5 of those a shift.

They need to call this goal back. It was a gong show in front of the net.

The problem is that Nurse was pushing him. If the refs decide that Nurse was the reason, this goal is standing.

So they lose the challenge as expected and now give the Flames a chance to tie it up. Crap like this is hurting the team's chances.

If I were making up a player's stats in those EA NHL games, I'd have to give Dr Drai no better than a 6/10 in passing. He just telegraphs his intentions far too often, and on top of it his passes wind up being baby-ass-soft.

I think his mistakes seems more noticable for two reasons.
1. He has the puck on his stick a lot and this attempts a lot of passes. Bound to be some bad ones.
2. He tries passes many people wouldnt as he seems to have great vision.

There is a reason he is considered one of the best passers in the league by many.

If clearing the puck was a stat, I'd have to give him 4/10. That negligent backhand nearly led to another Flames goal. Terrible.

BTW, passes to the point on the PP aren't special ones that players wouldn't try. If I had a nickel for each time he turned the puck over on such pass attempts I'd be a hundredaire.

All started with a BS call by that ref, total interference by Tukchuk, Nurse contact was incidental, Tukchuk was charging into Koski regardless, and slashed him 3 times with his stick as he did..




I hope Barrie knows the OIL are in the DarK jerseys tonight.



Speaking of jerseys. I hate these uniforms. They look good on a fan, but they’re non bueno on the ice.

If I were making up a player's stats in those EA NHL games, I'd have to give Dr Drai no better than a 6/10 in passing. He just telegraphs his intentions far too often, and on top of it his passes wind up being baby-ass-soft.


I think his mistakes seems more noticable for two reasons.
1. He has the puck on his stick a lot and this attempts a lot of passes. Bound to be some bad ones.
2. He tries passes many people wouldnt as he seems to have great vision.

There is a reason he is considered one of the best passers in the league by many.

The need of some Oiler fans to over criticize good hockey players more all while idolizing dusters will never cease to amaze me

If clearing the puck was a stat, I'd have to give him 4/10. That negligent backhand nearly led to another Flames goal. Terrible.

BTW, passes to the point on the PP aren't special ones that players wouldn't try. If I had a nickel for each time he turned the puck over on such pass attempts I'd be a hundredaire.


Well, I guess it is a good thing you arent in charge of either the Oilers scouting of the EA rating team as both of them identified passing as one of his strengths.

Stuff happens and no one will be mistake free. I am not really into the deep stats but I am sure there is a passing percentage stat around and I doubt his is terrible

Oilers gaining momentum in the Flames zone.

Russell lobs an unabated warmup muffin into Markstroms chest from the point.

At first I thought they were going to let the horse collar go. Good call stripes.
