Drake needed to be stronger on his man on that one.


Yep, Overall I thought it was a much more even period until that last 90 seconds or so. Real momentum killer on the JP gaffe and then a lot of puck watching on the next one/

Oh well, it might be the whiskey consumed at my first Christmas dinner at the season but after 36 mins or so I do have some hope the Oilers can pull this one off.


Not sure why Nurse had to Yakupov that pass to Pulju 15 feet away. And then just stands tehre as Kucherov is jumping behind Pulju before he even loses it. Kucherov knew that pass was too hot.


For sure. I wasnt putting 100% on JP. He could have done better but it was just not a good play overall.
Your comment is true of Nurse and I find that true on a lot of goals against. Too many times the guys are flat footed and not moving/prepared to move.
If everything goes as planned it is just fine but as soon as something goes sideways they arent prepared to react and defend. I really like Nurse but he is guilty of this a lot. Once he is stationary he is rarely pro-actively moving with anticipation of where he needs to be next.


Extra hard tonight for Nurse too, because Kucherov is showing us zero respect. He is burning our D cheating for breakaways all night. I'm really doubting that we make him pay for it at any point in this game.

So badly need some of our D back. We had some good games after Klef and Russell went down. But, lately, it's been exactly what we all feared. The puck movement is painfully weak, and guys are just getting overwhelmed with responsibility.
