Broberg, the guy who is not in the lineup because he just isn't ready is now the answer?? Ludacris. Pickard is far more an answer then Broberg.
Never underestimate the underdog, I still say Oilers in 6.
I'm still baffled about how through this and the canucks series.. the constant questioning about Skinner's ability.. its clear Edm management.. you need a better goaltending coach this offseason.. help reduce the variance of Skinners game regardless of the outcome.. Its probably for the best when looking long long term… Look at canucks Ian clark.. goaltending whisper.. 3rd string goalie… pushed Edm to 7 games.. Theres a reason why you need good goaltending coaches..
Bring Campbell back.
They cant put Nurse in press box So limit him to 8 or 9 mins and Do Not have him out there at end of periods Or at end of the game
Gotta see what he can do and you never know
Nurse is taking a bit of a beating, because he's the easy target with the money he makes (not from you guys, but from others) . He obviously isn't living up to the contract, but there's a player here, and Knoblauch thankfully knows that. If anything, he just needs to pick his moments better, and keep the game simple.
There were many other culprits on the goals against last night..
GA #1 is a combination of faults from Nuge/Hyman not clearing it, to Bouchard with a weak attempt to prevent Hinz from getting puck to McD not preventing Robertson's shot (it was his man).
GA #2, Ekholm maybe probably a good decision trying to intercept the pass, but with poor execution. Nuge blows a tire trying to poke it off Robertson… Skinner has a case of fumbilitis, perhaps (my one biggest critique is I wish he held on to more pucks), and Bouchard's, whom I've loved all playoffs, is standing there going "hey what's happening here, guys?".. not the only one in that regard though.
GA #3 is 100% on Vinny (Sorry to say) for what is a really odd decision. He tries to pass it through Jamie Benn, rather than just passing it back to his D partner to get it out.
GA #4, well, this is the infamous Skinner RVH (I'm not a goalie, so I hope I am right on that) gaffe.
Everyone on the team needs to focus on the moment they're in and ensure they are doing everything they can to get the puck out when in their zone, win those board battles, etc. When they fail to do that, problems start to accumulate, and then a goal against eventually happens.
Should’ve worked in Bromberg and Sketcher for a game or 2 imo
You guys are kidding yourself if you think they're the better team. Goaltending so much worse and defense core way worse. Forwards the edge goes to edmonton for sure but goaltending and defense will be there downfall.
13:44 these first 2 games weren’t even close to Dallas being at their best tho. Seems like you’re already forgetting what they look like with Hintz back in the lineup.
What about when Dallas is at their best?
Wow that is really clueless to say the Oilers are the better team.
