Hahahahaha... McDavid finally said "F it all" and went nuclear.
Skinner needs to retire.

Skinner says screw sub .900 - let’s see if we can get a W with a sub .800 performance.

Both Walman goals were flukey.. but a win is a win..
Bouchard gets benched .. finally.. yet still coughs up pucks.
Walman had an awful defensive game.. luckily he was rolling 7's in the O-zone.
Nurse still looks confused..
McDavid goes full nuke.. Leon, Podz, Roz, were effective.. Savoie created some chances.. Henrique played solid.
I think the best D-man going right now is Kulak.. Bouch, Nurse still conjure up routine unforced defensive failures.. Walman, Ekholm also struggling .. Pronger (on Amazon) was all over Bouchard and Walman during the intermission.. not impressed.. too many bad decisions
Oh.. and McDavid gets stiffed by a holding call imagined by the clown referees to make it a 4 on 4 when it should have been an Oiler PP.. and they blew the whistle on the play when McDavid was alone in front of the net dangling to plop the puck in.. the refs then have a "conference" to tell each other what they each imagined... and then decide McDavid gets the penalty when it was the other way around.. he was getting water skied.. McDavid just laughs now at the bush-league reffing.. its too farcical.. NHL refereeing has turned into a never ending Monty Python skit.

Thanking him while exhibiting his normal sleepy, 20% intensity. I'm sure the team just falls asleep when they hear him drone on.

Agreed! Might need that quite a bit more to have a chance at doing anything this year.

This sums up Nurse in the defensive zone.. I remember this play.. someone else did too (hence screen shot) .. Walman missed tying up Monahan in front of the net.. but.. where was Nurse? .. what was going on in his head ?? I remember he covered a guy coming back into the D-zone.. but the guy he was covering peeled off to the corner (right of screen) .. out of the play.. but Nurse kept gliding backwards.. until he was behind the net.. covering .. nothing .. he took himself out of the play.. the guy is 30 yo .. a 12 year vet..

Classic Nurse play. Pretty sure he had a couple notable instances of that "skate backwards into/beyond his own net" move against the Canucks in the 2024 playoffs when he and Skinner were simultaneously melting down.

The worst part is you know he's just indecisive where he should be on the ice.. what to do in what situation.. what is low risk.. high risk.. i.e. make the right play.. this should be instinctual by now.. shouldn't even have to think .. he's 30 yo.. learning curve has been flat for sometime now..
