Just don’t understand this coach they got perry they never put him in power play he tried him before and he scored why didn’t replace him Hopkin dose not have good game he was keeping it him on first uint I was so mad I bet Perry he would score just need to change power play unit sometimes
Swiss Cheese Skinner is not a flattering nick name to have in the Stanley Cup Playoffs. This was the exact kind of game as to why Skinner got pulled 4 times last year in the Playoffs. You just don't know what you're going to get from this guy. We lost because the team in front of him lost confidence in their goaltender. Every Oiler was gripping their stick so tight because Skinner couldn't make a save tonight. Plenty of blame to go around including Knoblauch for putting two of the slowest forwards in the NHL on the ice in overtime, but Skinner certainly stole the show tonight for all the wrong reasons. That's what happens when you step on the ice ready to play over confident cocky hockey. Cup or Bust. Go Oilers.
Knoblauch from German means Garlic )) Mr. Garlic, PLEASE ,act like Garlic not like honey )) change Swiss Cheese Skinner when needed and tell defense to run faster and not walk like $9 million Nurse
1st was too easy. make them delusional…. there is no urgency at the start… just not focus.. u have to earn every game… talbot is not a top goalie. shoot more… why mcleod never shoot ….
It all fell apart after the first goal on a lame clearing by Bouchard. Then McDavid had his chance right in front of the net in OT and couldn’t pull the trigger. Skinner’s not going to get this series won by letting in shots from the sides 30 ft out.
We have not learned the lessons. Very disappointing tbh. This game was it. Love this team support this team but today, the lack of killer instinct. We still aren’t there’s. Sad to say.
Not faulting him on any of these goals tonight?????? Who’s fault is Fiala’s goal???? Cmon stop coddling Skinner, our goaltending is a playoff nightmare we can’t wake up from. I was really hoping for a coach that holds his players accountable but that is a remnant of the past.
Skinner needs to stop goals 1 and the OT goal. I'll give him the beautiful Kempe goal. Regardless of how your D is playing in front of you, you have to make those saves!!! As one of my friends who was texting me during the game said, Skinner remains our weakest link. Put it behind you and move on to Game 3. Go Oilers.
Fiala and Doughty goals can’t happen in the playoffs. That being said, the Kings are getting some puck luck. The Oilers need to push back and grind more. We officially have a series now.
After 3-1 you did not start to play better. The Team was losing steam, you knew Stew was choking up, you decided to support him and to keep him in because hes all you have this year and you know it… that was a major Coaching decision and a turning point in the game. Forget Stew thats a Management issue you are a Coach so maybe we should be discussing exactly how LA is scoring so many goals on your System suddenly?
Ffs, if this coach puts swees cheese in for next game all my reapect is gone for him,you have to play pickard or campbell next game,you cannot keep playing skinner

9 goals against us in 2 games is brutal
So Knobby is living in denial and afraid to make the tough decisions. Would rather blame "bad bounces". Ok then. He is not the coach I thought he was.

Why even interview this guy?? He’s just Connor’s puppet, he’s not the coach.
both our defense and our goaltending need to be better we knew what to expect from this kings team and theres no excuses gotta be better

Stu played very poorly
OT loss? Thank YOU $9 million Nurse 🤑and "a HOLE in the net" Skinner with 3 goals after 7 shot 😝
Skinner is not mediocre goalie ) He is BAD 😜with SV = .808 % 4 goals + 5 goals = 9 goals after 2 games
Thanks to McGreat and Hyman Oilers were lucky to score 7 in last game) but not this time🤣🤣

LA is winning the series. This goaltending is not Cup winning worthy. Only Stanley Cup They're getting is one of those fancy water bottles.

Should try a different goalkeeper 🤔
This guy is such a candy ass know wonder the players don’t get after it pathetic to say the least

The Kings didn’t play better, the oilers played worse and Skinner hardly played at all.

Highlight of the game was the oiler fan getting an ankle tattoo 😂😂😂😂 A "man fan" getting an ankle tattoo sums up oiler fans 😂😂😂😂 GKG !!!
Skinner is garbage
Stop defending skinner you know he sucks
