He didn’t necessarily had a bad game, but he didn’t have a great game either. Did he get manhandled by Draisaitl? The only thing I remember is that he took the puck away from Draisaitl. Perhaps I missed this part. I don't know, the board seems pretty split. I thought he was very good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was evident 5 mins into the game green should have adjusted and we lost this game because he didnt. If we're going to deploy taven against the worlds best player, then we cant be pairing hughes with tanev. Coaching lost this game. 2. What does sutter bring to this team? It aint offence. And his defenceis survival mode hemmed in our own zone. 3. Ferland looks great. 4. Why does Mike Smith get his own set of rules? Since when can you take a stick from an opponent and throw it in the corner? Thats like 3 seperate penalties. How the f is that missed by all officials.... The throwing of the stick half way across the rink could be seen from half way across the globe. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
on the cycle Posted October 3, 2019 Share Posted October 3, 2019 Good effort, outplayed them but Canucks played sloppy. When they tighten up their play they'll be pretty good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can’t we just load up the first PP with Petey-Boeser-Hughes-Myers, and whomever? Boeser-Bo--Petey-Quinn-Myers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Odd. Posted October 3, 2019 Share Posted October 3, 2019 1 minute ago, spook007 said: Very true... however missing camp and most of pre season definitely doesn't help neither... Yes, Boeser wasn't even the problem, more of an observation on his game tonight. Otherwise he was decent. I'm not gonna fret a whole lot. First game of the season, lots of sloppy hockey from both sides. Game was fun to watch though. Every game matters, but the first couple of weeks is always meh. I mean the last 4 years we've missed the playoffs and we had strong starts. Every game matters... after like a month of hockey 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Arrow 1983 Posted October 3, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted October 3, 2019 Edm was prime to be out played on their 3rd 4th line and our bottom 6 is not good enough Sven Gaud Virtanen could have dominated their bottom 6.

They are sprinting to get as much of a point buffer as possible before everything grinds to a halt like they always do. I don’t even think the Oilers dressed a 3rd and 4th line 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brownky Posted October 3, 2019 Share Posted October 3, 2019 2 minutes ago, Where's Wellwood said: Pathetic powerplay. Put in gaudette, call up Baer. Pettersson was unlucky. He had chances. Our team just seemed to lack chemistry in any sort of cycle game. It's like they've all been dicking around in practice doing nice looking puck plays. Those work really well in practice when the defence is your own team not interested in getting hurt. I was a really good player, in practice. Whoooole nother ball of yarn against a team clogging the lanes. Pearson had the right idea. Just shoot the damn thing. You'll get chances. I liked it when our passing would open up their collapsed box to free up the points for some hard shots / one timers - leading to goals. Boeser trying to thread a pass through 4 flames' sticks in the last 20 seconds of a game kinda sums up my argument. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ilduce39 Posted October 3, 2019 Share Posted October 3, 2019 I actually thought the 3rd line wasn’t half bad. More shots than the first line and Sutter gave a nice screen on the Edler goal. Yeah he coughed it up to McDavid but 97 is literally the best player in the world. The issue is our top line needs to play better, period. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 3rd and 4th lines did nothing but give momentum to the Oilers all night long. Pathetic deployment of players by coach Green. remember when Green sat Boeser 2 years ago cause the thought he was tired, for me this is kind of the same thing - brain fart by Green. Gaudette should 100% be in the line up - had one of the best camps, works like a beast, has a shot and probably the best O upside of the bottom six Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wasn't the typical Ovie type 11 shot attempts game lol. The tip in was really nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post 48MPHSlapShot Posted October 3, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted October 3, 2019 So lookie lookie. Our top line was effectively shut down, and we didn't have anything in our bottom six that could contribute. It's almost as though depth scoring matters, and the idea of needing to have two scoring lines and two checking lines is an archaic and outdated concept. 2 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conscience Posted October 3, 2019 Share Posted October 3, 2019 Boeser and EP aren’t a good match even going back to last year, need to be split up. Miller might be a better fit for petterson as he can retrieve the puck, get it to EP and keep up in the neutral zone. Even Goldobin has the skill to get EP the puck with a clean pass and they showed chemistry. Bear and Gaudette need to be our 3rd line, and not the current combo of 6 checkers that don’t check. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But there should have been a call when he yanked the stick out of the Canuck’s hand in the first place. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
