Luckily I was headed somewhere so I wasn’t able to watch the game thankfully amd after I saw the texts from my bro when it was 3-0 on 5 shots, I wisely decided not to listen. Icy highways and the Oilers tanking a game is never a good mix.
The schedule maker gave the Oilers the old middle finger giving them 5 games in 7 nights, making them go on a mini trip. Slamming a lone home game in the middle. Then making them go on a 1 game trip only to have the last game being a back to back against a very good team. Pretty ridiculously difficult task to come up with a remotely decent effort by I am sure an exhausted team. Only way there was the slimest of chance to salvage even a point is your goalie had to be outstanding. The goalie lasted only 2/3 of a period with 4 goals on 7 shots. Now like I said I didn’t get to watch the game so I am sure the effort was poor but I am not sure I have seen a .429% posted by a a suppossdly NHL caliber goalie before. Maybe I missed one but even if a team doesn’t have much to give, that’s a pretty poor excuse of an effort by a vet goalie.
I noticed Benson did a pretty sweet bad pass to be a primarry setup on the Wilds first goal but at least he got that first ever goal when it was 6-1 to stop being the only Oilers forward this year without a goal. He gave one way but got one back so all the stats guys can give him a boost. I saw the oldies on cult of hockey give him an extra grade point juat because he finally score his first NHL goal, so I am sure other stat guys did as well. So cudos to him for getting that goal. His dad was watching so even better. He had 1 shot and he scored so I guess he can be called a 1 shot scorer now! Whoop whoop!!
A tough next few games ahead. Smith had been playing well for several games in a row so he was due for a stinker sadly. So hopefully its out of his system and he can play good again as they need him. Koskinen was playing well before covid and had a strong game against the Jets so he was a bad game time bomb ready to explode as well. He didn’t exactly shut the door and I saw a stinker goal so maybe they both got their trash game over with at once.
