You can't make this stuff up. The Oilers blow two games in a row. Just absolutely unbelievable
Mcdavid has a so great game, and we still lose
I really am starting to wonder if we will ever get it together

Booooooooo! Hold a lead, you bums.
LOL... this team holds leads like a wet paper bag holds water.
This is easily the weakest iteration that we've seen in a number of years. I get that some of these young guys are breaking in, but you have McDavid and Draisaitl, and we're a middling, average hockey team. Trash.

Back to back 2 goal leads given up. Only allowed 9 shots combined in the 3rd period. Yet we allowed 3 goals.
Pickard had 1/5 games over .900
Skinner 3/10.
If only we would have known. There was just no way to know our goaltending might be a weak spot on our team. But really, nobody could have predicted this.
They’re asking the players what could you do better, and the all seem to be stumbling on their words. When you only allow 5 and 4 shots in a period with a 2 goal lead, you should be good.
I don’t think many of the goals have been THAT bad, but every chance against simply can’t end up in the back of the net.

How many 2 goal leads have we given up so far this season? It's like we get the lead then just give up. Reminds me of when I used to always laugh at the Leafs' inability to hold a lead. Not good enough.
Speaking of not good enough, it'd be nice if either one of our goalies could occasionally stop a high danger chance against. It feels like every single chance against ends up in our net.

Walman's turn to have a horrible game.. he was awful.
.. and Bouchard starts the game off with another bone-head move.. a behind the back pass at the blueline for a break away.. only lucky thing was Robertson was as slow as he is..
Podz had a great game.. Rosz had a great game.. lots of players played great.. but the weak links did them in again.
McDAVID! Oh YEAH Baby!! (Thank you Lord!)

So many neat things to see in Oilers replays.
Watching Nurse chase a guy that is already covered to create a 2 on 0 opportunity right in front of Skinner was my play of the game tonight

Yeah Staples gave him a 3/10.. I guess I'm just used to his poor coverage now..
I think hw needs to be checked out by an optometrist for diminished peripheral vision .. always misses the danger guy...

We better clean this up and clean this up fast because we have Colorado next. Things don't get any easier
With that being said, we should get Hyman back pretty soon which will help a lot

McDavid with a nice 5v5 goal and now in the league scoring lead.
Guess can take a break from the McComplaining for a while :)
