These line combinations are what’ll lead this team deep. Keep them together and allow the chem time to build. Need a 2RD, and a healthy, up to speed, Kane to flank Leon and Arvi. Podz-Philp-Perry with (Janmark and Ryan) as extras.
It’s frustrating when team management realized 10 or more years ago that we needed a quality goal tender and a couple of shut down defenceman, but have never made the moves to close the gap. These issues were so obvious tonight. Bottom line: Vegas’ best players were just that much better than our best players.
So odd how he hasn't tried Arvidsson or Skinner with McDavid. He's way to loyal to Nuge and Hyman even if they have been contributing nothing to the team.
Gapping holes in Skinner's game ....the last goal was a a straight on shot ....no screen ....this guy is not a contender .....and oh yeah the poor sportsmanship of Mc Jesus breaking his stick over the goal ....again ....he ain't a whiney little baby though eh ....? Hopefully his ego ain't as bruised as his poor little ankle . Stone is a real "C" ....solid as a rock and able to take a knock.
I'm so tired of outplaying teams for like 8 minutes straight then the first opportunity the opposing team has goes in our net. Bouchard knows hes out of position and where rhe puck is going and still lacindaically doesnt get there.
Exactly, some of them don't understand that they can't let up at all. No lapses. All shift, every shift has to be played at the highest level. It's just the way it is if they wanna win games and the cup.
I kind of enjoy seeing them fail games. I kind of also enjoy them play well. In short : I love the drama this team give. You never know what will happen.
I dont think Knoblauch is cut out for this job.. This team makes coaches look good because when a coach gets fired and a new one joins it sparks them and they play well for the rest of that season. But when that jolt has died down and reality sets in, these first-time NHL coaches doesnt cut it, they dont have what it takes to coach guys like McDavid, Draisaitl.
Knoblauch was McDavid's junior coach - you know that right! How is it the coaches fault when your D stops skating and your goalie can't make the important saves and steal a game? Tell me? I'd bench someone to watch from the press box - can't be a D because we have no one to bench on the D and some genius traded Gleason (one of the best D in training camp)! Stay the course with the coaches and maybe the f'g players should step up and do their f'g job!
Pathetic Oilers lost the game in the last minute?? Not the first time with such defenders like Bouchard who is not returning from the attack zone Pathetic Skinner had a goal between his legs ? 🤪🤪 It is normal for him to concede 3-4-5 goals per game. Coach Knob send Bouch to AHL🤑
He just stopped skating on the first goal and Skinner looked like a minor leaguer on the breakaway, should’ve poked checked when the guy is that close.
You never throw anyone under the bus in public. Behind closed doors is when you call them out. That's how a good managers manages. Not like Tippett used to do.
Jackson and Bowman really managed to take a serious contender and turn them into a serious joke in just 2 months. It would be impressive if it wasn't so disgusting
Knobs maybe your team is trying to push you out and if not , your players are not helping the cause for something like this to happen, crunch down on your players and make them accountable.
A disaster! I will give McDavid a pass- he came back sooner than expected but Bouch laid an egg - several of them especially when he allowed Eichel in on a breakaway. Sloppy passes, careless defensive decisions and a terrible goal allowed by Stu on their powerplay
That was Ekholm who stopped skating. I wrote it down so I'd remember. But Bouchard trade him now for two shutdown D. That is if anyone will trade with Bowman.
Coach, with all due respect please stop saying “yeah, no”. It doesn’t mean anything and is distracting. You might want to add some emotion to your interviews. This looks like you are bored.
Bring in d sutter ..he ll kick these clowns down the vench till they want to play with more heart ..mcd was fine ..29 n 33 n 18 ..ok ...the rest not bad ..74 n 2 r flippn just brutal again ...93 is a liability most nites now ...rebuild rebuild ...look how the jets r plsying with so much heart n less flipon talent ..but a real goalie
Wrist shot from the point goes in on skinner was absolutely lousy.. Every single game skinner starts there’s at least one lousy goal.. He needs to be benched for 10-20 games imo Pretty pathetic play for a so called “cup contender” Half the team hasn’t even woken up
Skinner : the guy might give u a chance to win but hardly is the reason you stole a game. Count how many times he was the difference maker in why we win a game. That's like 11 games played. 0 steals.
@jessiefroese5591 the type of game where a goalie is the difference maker. That was against a struggling Nashville team with a bad offense. Dowsnt have to be shutout. But where hes making a bunch of great sales and everyone says "skinner was the reason we won. If it werent for him." That Nashville game was a team defense game more than a Skinner stealing it
Every game he lets in a soft one (or 4). Every. Single. Game. And don’t forget his fav freebie giveaway always giving the opposing side their first shot attempt as a first goal.
He’s putting his energy into finding his next job he’ll need after getting fired from this one. If he keeps defending this goaltending and defensive play nothing,will change.
Hey Knobs quit defending your players poor play , hold them accountable please.
Don’t play mcdavid until he fully recovers they did good without him
These line combinations are what’ll lead this team deep. Keep them together and allow the chem time to build. Need a 2RD, and a healthy, up to speed, Kane to flank Leon and Arvi. Podz-Philp-Perry with (Janmark and Ryan) as extras.
McDavid has been brutal all season so far. I'm afraid we witnessed peak McDavid and he's starting to decline.
I agree. Married life weighing them down

What about ekholm lol
@@jessiefroese5591 He was responsible for the first Vegas goal. He stopped skating. SMH
So odd how he hasn't tried Arvidsson or Skinner with McDavid. He's way to loyal to Nuge and Hyman even if they have been contributing nothing to the team.

Solid as a rock lol, Stone is injured every season.
Glourious??? Skinner? A glorious goalie doesn't let a goal through his legs, he closes the flaps
I'm so tired of outplaying teams for like 8 minutes straight then the first opportunity the opposing team has goes in our net.

If the losses don't teach them to win, nothing will.
No finals this year boys
Just like last year lol! Relax bud they will get it together and when they do ,lights out!!
Stuart skinner, Darnell nurse, and Evan Bouchard are here to save us !!!! 💀💀💀
I thought we played well until last 3 minutes, the floor check was good, our shots go in itsa different story.
I dont think Knoblauch is cut out for this job.. This team makes coaches look good because when a coach gets fired and a new one joins it sparks them and they play well for the rest of that season.

Lazy Bouchard is NOT playing well in defense !!😝 Goal # 1 and # 3 are HIS goals ! )) Send him to AHL ))🤑
Send MCDAVID to AHL 😅😅
He just stopped skating on the first goal and Skinner looked like a minor leaguer on the breakaway, should’ve poked checked when the guy is that close.
I like Stu but I think he could have and should have stopped 2 of the 3 goals tonight!
Chances aren’t goals. Pop gun offence doesn’t work.
What's tough is this team doesn't play with heart.
Knobby doesn't want to call out Bouch for some reason
You never throw anyone under the bus in public. Behind closed doors is when you call them out. That's how a good managers manages. Not like Tippett used to do.
Jackson and Bowman really managed to take a serious contender and turn them into a serious joke in just 2 months. It would be impressive if it wasn't so disgusting
@@dungeree7292 you’re a putts, we’re 14 games in, let’s relax a bit. Remember last year?
@ElmersGlue2 You think they're going to have another 16 game winning streak again? Lmao low iq
Wait, are you one of the people who also thought Holland was awful?
Knobs maybe your team is trying to push you out and if not , your players are not helping the cause for something like this to happen, crunch down on your players and make them accountable.
does knob or coff even say anything to bouch?? seems like they're okay with him making stupid plays and letting him do whatever tf he wants.

Hold the goalie and defence accountable or it’s your job on the line kris!!!!!!
Can’t just keep firing coaches the players need to be accountable.
Too slow and no battle...seems like the decade of darkness play I remember.
Looked good until the puck was dropped ....
blablabla, no responsibility. Our passes were horrendously poor quality compared to Vegas, this trainer is 'nice-talking' any sh.t.
Bring in d sutter ..he ll kick these clowns down the vench till they want to play with more heart ..mcd was fine ..29 n 33 n 18 ..ok ...the rest not bad ..74 n 2 r flippn just brutal again ...93 is a liability most nites now ...rebuild rebuild ...look how the jets r plsying with so much heart n less flipon talent ..but a real goalie
It could have been 3-1 damm.
Wrist shot from the point goes in on skinner was absolutely lousy..
Every single game skinner starts there’s at least one lousy goal..
He needs to be benched for 10-20 games imo
Pretty pathetic play for a so called “cup contender”
Half the team hasn’t even woken up
long year boys
Skinner : the guy might give u a chance to win but hardly is the reason you stole a game. Count how many times he was the difference maker in why we win a game. That's like 11 games played. 0 steals.
He had a shut out a few games ago 😂
@jessiefroese5591 the type of game where a goalie is the difference maker. That was against a struggling Nashville team with a bad offense. Dowsnt have to be shutout. But where hes making a bunch of great sales and everyone says "skinner was the reason we won. If it werent for him."
That Nashville game was a team defense game more than a Skinner stealing it
@@rediscoveryrecords1348 yah you’re right a shut out means nothing lol
@@jessiefroese5591 I guess you are new to hockey.. welcome
Skinner sucks
If Oilers Lose the next two he’s done. The right D is no where near NHL level.
Skinner needs to save the PP goal. Yikes.
Every game he lets in a soft one (or 4). Every. Single. Game. And don’t forget his fav freebie giveaway always giving the opposing side their first shot attempt as a first goal.
The problem: Kris has zero emotions. He sounds dead.
He’s putting his energy into finding his next job he’ll need after getting fired from this one. If he keeps defending this goaltending and defensive play nothing,will change.
Need some much better defense. Nurse, bouch, stetcher. Ugh
Oh great, oilers have another useless coach who's afraid to hold players accountable
We will see be Bouchard can't be playing like that nope not if we planning to win anything. He needs to see the press box
he’s not the issue. Bouchard is the one who’s not using his brain and doing what he needs to do.
