No Cups

It was a collapse of epic proportions. Worrisome too, with the fact that the penalty kill can't block a shot or move players out of the crease. The Oilers were the ones staying in the crease and yet they forgot that.

On the Stars of the second goal, Stu couldn't see a thing. I don't blame him at all, he made a guess, guess wrong and that's the breaks. It ruffled him. On the tying goal Stu was beat clean upper right, but the defence left Dallas all day and night to pick his shot. 4th goal, Stu has to have that, but this loss isn't on him, that go ahead goal was in his mind, he was panicked and

You can't do that to Dallas. They are way too good of a team to allow these weak goals and weak defensive play. Blame Stu all you want but this is a larger problem with the team getting rattled instead of playing their damn game. The Oilers as a team just panicked and forgot fundamentals.

Do more of that and you're golfing soon.

At the end of the day, they need to play all 60 mins like they did the first 40, calm and measured. They have been through this before and I believe they can figure it out. They still fall in the high jinx of poor defensive play and need to recognize when it's happen.

Kobs should have called a time out.. settle the horses. Especially Skinner. He's fragile. Fans pouncing on him isn't helping. I'm not apologizing for Skinner, but I'm not throwing him under the bus either.

...because there is nothing beyond Skinner. Like him or not, he's your only hope.




The very definition of insanity is doing the exact same thing expecting different results.

Generally Disappointed.
