I am not going to say much about the game other than they need a stop. I get that guys make mistakes, guys make bad reads, guys make a bad give away. Those aren't Oilers things, that's every team things. There is another team who's physically trying their best to force you to make mistakes. Every mistake you make can't be an automatic goal.
The first goal against was terrible. Catch the freaking puck!! That's all you have to do is catch it. That can't go in.
I didn't like the 3rd goal. Mid body, glove side from a guy who's not a goal scorer. If it's Ovie, I get it. Marcus Foligno? He has a career high 13 goals 3 yrs ago. Would it have been a good save, sure. But NHL goalies are supposed to make good saves all the time. Make a stop.
I HATED the 4th goal. 2 on one, I thought Bear played it decent. He cut off the pass, pushed the guy to the outside. The player didn't have a ton to shoot at. Smith saw him the WHOLE way. Mid body so it's not even top shelf. Again it would have been a good save but make a stop.
Then they tie it up. Staal goal was a onetimer but it was from a bit of range and again, it wasn't top shelf, mid body.
Then the 6th goal. Smith goes out, stops the puck behind the net. Jones is coming and could have easily played it and been fine but it's Smith so he has to play it. So he fires a grenade pass to Nurse. Now Nurse fanned on the pass but he had like half a second to do something. The Minnie guy knew EXACTLY what Smith was doing. He telegraphed it so he was coming full tilt into Nurse. So Nurse goes "Oh crap!!"because he sees the guy coming and has to get rid of it in a split second. All Smith had to do was stop it and nothing happens. Oh no!!!
You can't win if you have to score 6 or 7 a night. The Oilers scored 4 legit goals, a 5th with the empty net and they STILL lost. They need to be better as a team but they need some bloody stops.
