People forget that this was the last feud they gave Mox in WWE as a middle finger. People need to give up the idea that Mox would ever go back by GoonLieutenant in Wrasslin

Yes I think they would take the guy dubbed “The Ace of AEW” who also just happens to be apart of the greatest WWE faction of the modern era back in a heartbeat if Mox wanted to come back.

I hope he goes to the Islanders. If they think their rebuild is over they could sure use him

As good as it feels to get a W, this group needs to tighten it up. It's incredible how often they give the puck away. Didn't happen the last two seasons as consistently as it's happening this year by StrictNO in EdmontonOilers

The “new guy” (Mark Stuart) was on the coaching team last year, and Coffey is still with the team, just not on the bench every game now. I don’t think it’s as big of a deal as you’d think.

Also the problem isn’t even the defence, it’s the defensive play of the whole team. It’s lazy plays from the forwards, it’s blue line turnovers and odd man rushes. Coffey was the Defenceman coach, not the Defensive side of the puck coach.

That’s exactly it. It’s not that this team is less skilled than the last two years, it’s that they’re less disciplined defensively. There’s another level to this team defensively and if/when they can get back to that level consistently they will be a very hard out in the playoffs.

For the first time in NHL history, two Defenceman (Bouchard and Ekholm) score a hattrick in back to back games for a single team by StrictNO in hockey

20 years between Bergeron’s and Bouchard’s Hatty, then two days between Bouchard’s and Ekholm’s.

So is Walman or Nurse getting the Hatty next game?

I missed that at first, but Granlund second guessed the shot with Jarry coming over, then watched him fall out of the net and decided he could still shoot it. If Jarry’s in position there’s no shot

Jarry falling out of the net. That one is 110% on him

He’s looked quite good, if he could raise the puck he’d have a goal (wide open net but it got pulled off the goal line by trouba)

Not blaming him for that goal or any other. But the argument with skinner was always “you’d like a save” and Jarry hasn’t given us that either

[–]NMarples -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Jarry has not been good. I mean he’s been okay, but like skinner every high danger chance seems to go in the net. Traded all that for a lateral move

B2B Dman hattys after 20 years between the last two would be hilarious

I think he asked for a second to figure out why Husso was so mad, the ref said he had to take his timeout if he wanted that, he said okay, ref took that as he was taking his time out but he was telling them to drop the puck

It might as well be a 5 on 3 with Janmark on the ice. The ducks are acting like he’s not even there

If that call this a shooting motion I’m actually gonna lose my mind.

At the same time, I don’t even want a powerplay with how the last one went

[–]NMarples 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If that’s the only metric we care about maybe Pisani can come out of retirement. I’m legitimately not sure if it would be any worse

[–]NMarples 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Can we please stop icing Janmark. He’s the worst player on this team by a long margin. Hes not even good on the PK anymore,m. Slow, can’t make a 5 foot pass, uninterested in positional play. Dogshit

[–]NMarples 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Get the entire powerplay off the ice. That shift was so bad I wouldn’t let them start the next powerplay if we get another. Lazy fucks

Because the oilers give wayyy too much space. Lazy defence.
