  • The Edmonton Oilers are looking to tie their Western Conference Final series at 2 games apiece and turn this matchup into a best-of-three heading back to Dallas for game 5 on Friday tonight. Connor McDavid is showing signs of heating up, so the supporting cast for the #oilers has to get going here, including Leon Draisaitl who's been a bit quiet as of late. The #texashockey have done a phenomenal job on the penalty kill so far which has really limited Draisaitl's offensive output. It should be a heck of a game so sit back, relax, and let me know YOUR game-day thoughts in the comment section below! Let's Go Oilers! 💙🧡💙🧡 #nhl

    Hi! Stars fan here, I found your channel after game 3 and really enjoyed listening to your analysis! Edmonton being a 3rd period team typically might not bode well for them in this series (I hope) because so far Oettinger has been stellar in 3rd periods, he has only allowed 8 goals on 154 shots in the thrid (and he allowed 6 in 2 games against Colorado) so he has a .948 sv%; as a stars fan I hope that continues but really enjoy your channel!

    I really think Knobs was forced to put Nurse and Ceci together because Desharnais looked like he was struggling. He gave the puck away on one of the three 2nd period goals last game because he lost his composure/panicked. I know, what a catch 22!

    Broberg should draw in for Nurse. Nurse looks lost out there, making simple plays look difficult. Cant anticipate... Broberg will certainly do better than what Nurse is providing, plus he can skate and pass just as good if not better than Nurse.

    Ken Hollands terrible moves are finally showing up. His cap management of the contracts of Nurse Kulak Foegle and Cambpell have given this team no chance to win a cup. McDavid and Leon carry then way further than they should get. Without them this is a 1st overall pick team.

    With Skinner in net, the outlook for this game just got worse. Sorry, but that decision might cost them the series. Skinner is their best goalie, but after playing 5 GAMES IN A ROW, he’s tired, and he’s going to make little mistakes. I really hope I’m wrong, but this is poor judgment from the coach.

    • @AHockey1993
      @AHockey1993  4 месяца назад +4

      I agree with the possible fatigue factor. Skinner historically needs rested every 3 or 4 games. Thought Pickard would get the start too but 🤷‍♂️

    • @gregsgoogle2947
      @gregsgoogle2947 4 месяца назад

      He’s tired??? Any other playoff goalies too tired to play excellent hockey?? No. Being tired isn’t an acceptable excuse for a playoff player. Quite a lame excuse too. If a goalie gets too tired in the playoffs he needs to go play for the Blackhawks or similar team.

    • @AHockey1993
      @AHockey1993  4 месяца назад +1

      @gregsgoogle2947 load management in the NHL is much different nowadays for goaltenders. It's why you see many teams run 1A and 1B goaltenders in the regular season and split games so that when they go to a #1 for the post-season they aren't bagged.

    • @gregsgoogle2947
      @gregsgoogle2947 4 месяца назад

      @@AHockey1993 I understand that but that’s in the regular season... NOT the playoffs. Have you noticed any other team sitting goalies for rest in the playoffs? The Bruins invented the 2 goalie strategy but even they dropped it in the playoffs. Being able to complete & win a playoff series is what separates good goalies from average goalies. You know this so why all of the excuses for Skinner?? Dal or NY or FL would never consider sitting their starter for rest in a playoff series. Just saying our goalie needs rest in the most important games of his career sounds so wimpy.
      There’s no back to back games in the playoffs. No 3 games in 5 days like regular season. Always at least 1 day off. Plenty of time for rest or nappies with a blankie. Hot cocoa too!!

    To Edm: tage Thompson, 11th overall pick, next years first.
    Oilers can either use the pick or use it to get a proper partner for nurse

      @@michaelkeller5927saying we can’t afford Draisaitl is a completely self inflicted wound. There was no reason to extend Nurse to the size and length he got, not even at the time when he still had one year left before he needed to sign his extension. If we don’t try to bring back Draisaitl then I fully expect McDavid to walk as well because this franchise is a joke of asset management.

    We can't keep playing Nurse. That guy is an overpriced bum, lazy and out of position over and over. This is the @#$@#$ playoffs. Yet he's wandering around the ice, barely putting in any effort. If you're sick be a man and admit. Instead of whining and whining. TRADE NURSE ASAP. He is a cancer in that locker room, I've heard the rumblings of staff talking.
