Quiet house tonight.
Nice goal by McDavid. I’ll never tell my wife, but that gold card was the best thing that’s ever happened to me.
I will tell my kids one day.

I swear, Perreault gets 90% of his yearly goals against us. Year after year after year.

A back-up goalie in this league should stop that.

Stalock will get his shot.
That being, Koskinen has looked alright tonight. He hasn’t looked sketchy yet. That was a tip, just overplayed the original shot.

Yeah went back and looked. Pretty obvious on the replay.
I was in such a hurry to share my disgust, I made a bad call.

Nice, McD.
Crazy how he has 1 less goal now than the greatest goal scorer in NHL history.

Kahun, so useless, that goal was on him, lazy, stupid pass back to no one, starts out the Jet rush..
Jones still churning out the brain farts
I seem to remember Nygard as being a little speedier, thought he would be a regular option at forward, not noticeable out there
McDAVID! Oh YEAH Baby!!

Sure appeared so.
Maybe he had loosened one of his skates. I used to do that to my left foot between shifts sometimes.

It’s cute when little baby Koski pretends to get mad when he gets scored on, just like Unkie Smiff

Haven’t seen/heard. Just that he’s out. All I remember from last night where it may have been was he took a hard cross check to the back from Bennett.

I will..he's been playing on the perimeter, gets beat on one on ones most of the time and the puck is dying on his stick. I would like to see Kassian on the Drai line for a few games to see if some grit would take some pressure of Leon

Good pt, he's been playing with smurfs for the most part, Yamomotor has the heart of a lion, but Leon is the one that has to be the physical presence on the line. Too bad Yamo and Kass are both Right wings, would be nice to have a bigger, faster, left wing in place of Herr Kahun.

I tend to ignore a lot of the anti-Drai sentiments, because of Oilers bias & all, but holy hell does he remind me of Mess back in the day. You're trying to hit me? OK, let me just raise my elbow & crank you in the face. Totally not within the rules, but man I can't help but love it.

Your original comments make very little sense.
From a stats POV yamo is on the positive side of almost every metric you can use and shows a positive contribution across the board. Every standard and advanced metric proves this out.
He has had more takeaways than giveaways all season.
I know taking a penalty isnt a good thing but players on the perimeter dont often take many. Yamo has 7 this season indicating he is in the play. That is the most among forwards and tied for second overall. The only time I usually see anomalies there is with lazy players taking lazy penalties and I dont think any one has ever called him lazy. He has also drawn 9 which again indicates he is not just floating around the outside.
If people prefer the eye test he is one of the teams most consistent and tenacious forecheckers. There are also numerous times a game you will see him in front of the net getting crossed checked in the back while is either trying to hold his ground or looking for a puck in a scrum.
I dont think Yamo is all star quality yet but he has shown good progress this season and played well in his role.
As far as needing a physical presence on Drai's line I think it is up to him to be that presence on a line. He is a strong guy who controls the puck well and that should be used to open up space for a smaller guy, like Yamo. Drai doesnt need a bigger guy like Kassian to create space for him.

There's going to be a bunch of icebags in the Jets room tonight. I think this year even more than most, you like to see the other team paying the price on things like that. It takes a toll, and wears them down. Scheifele and Pionk are important players for the Jets, so if they are feeling it, that is beneficial to us.

He’s been a beast all over the ice tonight. Definitely a perk of keeping his minutes under 20 last night.

Agreed. I watched the first two periods with pvr.. and admittedly I don’t watch all the play when I do that. Skip ahead 30 seconds at stoppages and whatnot. It really shortens things and makes it so I don’t drink AS much wine for those nights (like tonight) when I choose to do so.

Isn't it great. Oilers playing low event hockey and they know they have the guys to put their few chances in while the opponent may not.

Archibald is definitely a downgrade on Yamamoto. I hope he's back soon.
