If they play like they did against the Jets on Tuesday, I'll need something stronger than beer to get through this one.

Always whiskey or bourbon. Has got me through many a bad game in the last 15 years.
As I type this we have a rough GA.
Seems early for a refill but here we are.

Well, that goal can certainly be placed at Koski's feet off the piss-poor clearing attempt.
On a related note: earlier, Nurse's inability to make a basic backhand pass saw the Laffs go back the other way and keep the Drai line hemmed up in their own end for an entire shift. This Oil D has to get better. When is Bouchard expected to come back from the bad back...?

The goal convinced me. Screw the AGLC and their so called 'dry days'.

If the rest of the night is going to be as bad as Koski's play on that goal against, I am thinking that nothing less than bleach will work. Stuff like that makes me want to forget that I was ever a fan of this damn team.

Same thing he can do with the D, figure out how to outscore the problem.

Yeah, his hands are tied there too, because he doesn't have the cap space to sign a forward who could actually play with Connor and push lesser players down the depth chart.

I hope Drai's shot there was in fact tipped, because otherwise he missed a wide-open gaping net....

Why the Hell is Nurse on the PP? Right now, he's dead-weight, plain and simple....

sorry... any success the PP has had with NURSE has been accidental... For Gawds sake put BEAR there or Bouchard... or even Barry. 
...this time, it's for real (isn't it?).

Great limp-wristed shot, Barrie. And another PP is completely wasted.

He's not the fix for a peewee team the way he's playing right now. By my count, he's given away the puck at least 5 times this period, including 3 times on that PP.

At this point they might as well put 5 forwards out there. It isnt like they are actually setting up shots from the blue line. When they do it is blocked almost every time.

Hey, who could have predicted that a combo of Mike Smith and Mikko Koskinen wasn't the goaltending you needed to be a Stanley Cup contender?

I don't understand what Larsson was doing on the Nylander's goal. He's in position and then decides to just abandon the front of the net leaving 2 Leafs standing there. To go where and do what exactly???

Maybe the Oil should see if Sarah Nurse can play at D better than her currently-useless brother. At the very least, I'd rather see her face than his on the ice...

I'm very close to this stage myself. The alcohol is helping a bit, though.
