I kinda preferred this team when Tippett was in protocol. Can he go back there please?


In fairness to Hall, I've wanted to throw a waterbottle at Eakins all season.

Odds that tip specifically points out Sam as a key cause for the loss?

Question: if your team hasn't won a single game where they were trailing after the first period, is there a possibility they're constructed wrong?


You can't always get what you want, but if you try sometimes, you just might find, you can get a lottery pick.

Means they need more aged vets. That is a clear sign of not knowing how to win and battle through adversity.

I wonder how McD feels knowing that Holland sewered the peak of his career with demonstrably bad signings and trades. Literally doing nothing would have been a better offseason. Would you sign an extension if you were him?

We just signed and traded for all of McDavid's training buddies. I bet he was also excited for Keith to come here because that's how most hockey players are, they usually would make awful managers that over estimate what a 38 year old Keith would bring.

The losing may make McDavid consider moving on. I don't think doing stuff he probably loved in the summer would be the reason though.

It's kinda sad really. I personally think our management priority shifted a bit from trying to build a winning team at any cost to trying to keep McDavid happy because of how bad things have gone. Obviously a good manager would put 100% effort to build a winner and just let the winning keep the star happy, but what if you started having doubts you know how to build a winner? I guess you just try to keep the star happy any other way you can and hope that what makes him happy just happens to translate to winning.

They didn't get outplayed by much. Blues took the lead on a PP. Blues got 4. Oilers got none.

St Louis is a bad matchup for the Oilers at the best of times. Binnington was huge in the 3rd.

Bad mistakes by the D on 3 of the 4 goals.

Welcome to the NHL Samo!
Has to be one of the shortest NHL debuts I can remember, 2 1/2 minutes of ice time, 4 shifts, two goals against back to back..
Needs to work on that foot speed and pivots... back to Bako.

Oh.. and the worst thing was the poor guy flew his wife to see the game.. 4 shifts and done.

McDAVID! Oh YEAH Baby!!
Tic-Tac-Tao!
Keep on Rockin' in the Free World
P. Chiarelli math.. T. Hall = A. Larsson, Yak= bag o'pucks (OK he got one right...) K. Russell = $4.1 M+NMC, G. Reinhart= M. Barzal + A. Beauvillier, J. Eberle = R. Spooner,
