  1. They should buy-out Campbell Vegas style and put that money into a better goalie. Holland won't though, hes too invested into Campbell and hes sticking around for another year at least.

  2. Weird how people defend not playing Campbell when skinner was exhausted… but the team we lost to literally did what the oilers refused to do and switched to Hill. It paid off. They won the cup.

  3. This is an idiotic assertion. Nobody got goalied by Vegas's fourth-string goalie, even if he did make some great saves. Look at the TOI numbers for the whole series. Game 1, VGK had their top forwards out for ~18 minutes and McD/Drai played ~25. EDM has NO DEPTH. When Drai stopped scoring, somebody else should have stepped up. The problem is DEPTH. Vegas played so good defensively that no matter what goalie they had in net the team would have protected him. I feel like this is dumb enough that you've posted it to be wrong on purpose so people like me will correct you in the comments and drive up your interaction numbers for the algorithm.

  4. Seems like you need a great goaltender whose affordable to win the Stanley Cup lately (aside from Vasilevskiy)

  5. I'd give Soup the start for Opening Night and let things flow from there. ride the hot hand. more times than not last year, if one goalie was cold, the other was hot. it was no different in the playoffs, Stu was terrible while Campbell was stellar. idk why you're worried abt our goaltending when your whole franchise is a dumpster fire

  6. Woodcroft got outcoached by Kassidy. End of. He's made so many questionable decisions handicapping the team.

    You don't start the third line in a do-or-die game and have Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl sitting on the bench watching his team get scored on against 30 seconds in.
    You can also give a strong argument for not starting a goalie who has been pulled 4 previous times in 11 games and was entirely solved by the opposing teams offense by Game 1.

  7. Great video! #nhl #hockey #nhlnews

  8. Edmonton can run back this tandem. What they really need is a defensemen that can actually defend. I'm sorry, but Nurse-Ceci is not a Cup winning top pair.

  9. Stuart Skinner certainly didn't have a great playoffs, and it maybe wouldn't have hurt to give Soup the Game 6 nod against Vegas. But if you want to compare Stu to young Grant Fuhr (keeping in mind you're allowed to because Stu broke Fuhr's rookie wins team record), hey- even Fuhr didn't do well on his first postseason expedition (1982; Miracle on Manchester, anyone?). Next postseason run he had? Cup Finals. Winning it all in back-to-back years.

    If there's anyone who's going to come back stronger next year and be a brick wall, it's Stu. Some extra attention to team defense wouldnt hurt either.

  10. Edmonton's loss in rd 2 in 2016/2017 was because we burnt out Talbot and didn't use Brossoit.

    Edmonton's loss in rd 3 in 2021/2022 was because we burnt out Smith and didn't start Koskinen.

    Edmonton's loss in rd 2 in 2022/2023 was because we burnt out Skinner and didn't start Campbell.

    It's beyond frustrating.

  11. Kane choked, draisaitl choked, nugest who? Overrated, padded stats of a 60pt scorer. Campbbell would of sieved out too
    Nurse is trash as well

  12. When you pull skinner 3 games in a row he should not have even played that 3rd pull wether or not he got us there Vegas had his number, also Fuhr had a terrible first playoff ls too

  13. Who's even heard of Adin Hill until 2 months ago? Goaltending is NOT Edmonton's issue. The defense has been… for 18 years.

  14. Skinner sucked and I predicted it. Jack campbell didnt crumble at all and its not his fault the coach wouldnt play him. Campbell toook the leafs to almost w tampa upset he played better then Vaselevsky dudw. You go with the goalie with playoff experience

  15. Skinner is a rookie NHL Allstar. Oilers eliminated by the cup champions 2x in a row … Nobody in Edmonton is worried about this

  16. You have stupid titles for your videos and videos at weird times

  17. I've been a Oilers fan all my life and I AM OLDish (in my 40s so no OK Boomer for me). I remember when Fuhr was replaced with Ranford. Remember when they got CuJo for nothing. Remember when Roloson was washed up but in 2006 had gas left in his tank. Salo too was amazing. But seriously the Oilers have had crap for Goalies for so long since Roloson. Like there are so many times I am like "Oh yeah I remember Ty Conklin (or name that guy)" The oilers have Skinner and he is the first developed goalie they have played in the playoffs sine Fuhr or Moog. Lets go with Skinner!!! (as LB almost killed us on behalf of Vegas anyways)/.

  18. Bouchard rights, RNH, Campbell, 1st rd pick to coyotes for vejemelka and durzi. EDM Retains 25% of RNH and Campbell salaries.

    If you want to unload that contract of a crap goaltender while acquiring an established and great netminder signed two more years to less than 3M per you have to overpay. That’s the market to unload salary this offseason. See cal Peterson to flyers for reference.

    If the oilers do this they win

  19. Skinner is a young goalie people don’t understand that, skinner is gonna be a great goalie give him time

  20. Just a netural hockey spectator. Maybe they should switch off like every other game or one does home the other away etc

  21. Jack Campbell can’t be worse than last season, while stu will take the next step, they will be fine

  22. How could you know if Campbell wouldn’t turn it on? You have really no idea. You really should quit this crap. Skinner was bad. Put the veteran in. That’s it
