I took the wife to the game. I wish I could get my gas and parking money back. Disappointing doesn't really cut it.

Can someone explain to me what the point of having Yamamoto up is? There might be a player there but he's not close yet. I was in my company lower bowl seats. They are row 2 in a corner near a face off circle. Second period, Yam is up with McDavid and Nuge. They are getting ready. I could see Yamo asking McDavid where he should stand and McDavid said nothing. Then Yamo yells to Nuge and Nuge says nothing. Now at this point it was 4 or 5-1 and maybe they didn't hear him because the music was blaring but to me, it looked like they were ignoring him. Sort of a sign like "freakking great, he's on our line, we get to drag him around." Maybe I am reading into it too much.

I like Larsson A LOT but holy hell the guy is playing bad. Like really bad. His interview sums it up, he can't do anything.

Jones, I think there is a player there but MAN he is making some costly mistakes. I am not so sure I can even chalk it up to inexperience. The stuff he is doing is DUMB. He at least didn't be the primary assist on a goal against like he was against Calgary or Vancouver but WOW. If he would just do like BASICS he would probably be OK.

Both Kassian and Brodziak need to spend a couple of hours doing nothing but the horse shoe. What I mean is get the skate from the corner, get up your speed, get the puck at full speed, skate towards the goal, shoot the puck and HIT THE FREAKING NET!!. Brodziak missed at least 2 point blank chances where he was was dead center, 20 ft out and put it wide or over. Kassian missed at least 2 himself.

Goaltending. Just isn't good enough. The Oilers were a pile of garbage but the goaltending, especially Talbot wasn't good enough. I am big time on tone setting events. When you let in a goal 28 seconds in on the first shot, that sets a tone to me. Was it a great chance? YES. But it was an unscreened, low shot. Make and freaking save. Goalies NEED to make big saves at big times. That's their damn job. He makes a big save there, it maybe shakes the team and they wake up. Instead, it goes in, puts them behind the 8 ball, they are already pressing because they are behind and to me, tells the team that Talbot might not be on tonight. He hasn't been "ON" a lot of nights. He's let in a lot of first shots over the past season and a bit and he wasn't ON because the 3rd goal was awful.

I am pretty fired up. You lose to the Flames, then you follow it up and are even worse. Just a bad, bad, bad night.

I'm going Tuesday night....freebies & I wouldn't go Tier 1 at this point to be honest.

I'm going to guess it finally gets ugly from fans if the Oilers don't show up early in the game once again.
