I know you guys talk a lot about the goalies, but how about the lack of scoring? I think that was the issue in the playoffs and many games last year..... If there wasn't such a lack of scoring that goalies are fine as their numbers are comparable with the top third of the league easily
Right! Interested to see what comes of forwards..that seems the crucial thing with those high draft prospects training and coming along in future seasons for Anaheim and Sharks.
I think Chris has always been quite candid about Oilers. Not his team. A Lifelong Hawks fan now working in NHL Vegas. He has stated he hopes McDavid one day wins a Cup. But with Woodcroft it wasn’t good ..
Bob has a very systematic approach to his game preparation. And he also has a long history of getting rattled in big series. It was the big knock on him earlier in his career and in his first few seasons with Florida. Really the classic goalie who is exacting hard on himself and right now his team just didn’t close in defensively in last three games. So tonight is a reset for Florida.
Maurice is 100% to blame if the Panthers don't find a way to win tonight. Knoblauch has put on a masterclass coaching performance. Look at the Oilers pre and post-Knoblauch. Coaches aren't everything, but they are a lot of it. -Chris
@@LockedOnVegasGoldenKnights Agree! I like Paul Maurice as do many. He’s irreverent and memorable with interviews. But I thought it a strange hire because the team itself is pretty self driven as well as talented. But the coaching has seemed one dimensional.

I don't think you understand what is occurring with the team and free agency at the moment
Dostal from Ducks would fit perfect with LT
Yes, but Who would take Hill contract?
Do the Panthers fire their coach if they lose game 7?
That seems to be the most at risk situation..
How do you not?
Funny how Chris wasn't worried about the oilers when the playoffs started lol

Coaches doesn't matter.

@chris how many penalties do you think will be called in game 7 and towards what team?
i got oilers winning either 4-1 or 5-1 just depends on empty net goals at the end of the game, but i would love to see an ot in the finals
