This was an absolutely pathetic performance by the team overall.
Battle of Alberta, home ice, easiest points of the year, getting whooped several times before this, starting the game well...
Two goals.
We played the worst defensive team this league has seen in many years by a wide margin, and we score two goals.
I hope they don't use Berras crappy play as an excuse, because it really wasn't the ultimate reason we lost. The game should have been long over before the third period. The Oilers kept on trying to give us the game, with stupid penalties, with terrible defensive game, with their constant turnovers and with their extremely soft offense.
We didn't take it. There is just no team bad enough in this league that a one period perfomance like that will beat them. And it wasn't like even the first period was that great.
