I think the Canucks have figured this whole "just shoot, it'll probably go in" thing. That took like 5 seconds.

Like imagine being Skinner looking down the other way and seeing what it takes to beat the other goalie, watch him hold his team in the game, and then you do that.

Honest question though:

All these years of high draft picks. How do you have defense and goaltending this bad? Seriously. That's almost impossible to do.

Never, ever doubt the damage Peter Chiarelli can do.

Never, ever doubt what organizational arrogance can do.

Skinners contract has no clauses and is mostly salary and not bonuses, he's an easy buyout candidate if he continues like this. Not that it's his fault, the coilers just ruined him.

This just pisses me off. The damned Oilers are going to get another high draft pick.

They rush every prospect they have, ruining them in the process
Watch
Tomorrow, Skinner or Campbell will be waived and one of the Bakersfield goalies will be brought into the mess.

Just fine by me, as long as they keep from deciding to learn how to play in their own end

Can someone make a Joel Quenneville/Vince McMahon meme. Maybe he'll take over from Woody after the first intermission?

At least he can win the Masterton when he gets his career back on track on another team.

Oh I think it’ll be a much more drastic pain than having to retain salary.

The Oilers are going to trade multiple 1st round picks to get a new goalie and remove one of their current goalies.

They’re gonna do it, because they have to.

There's not a lot to do. They both look completely checked out.
