Either way, nice to get an easy game for the first one back in 6 weeks. Oilers are good for something at least ...
Lets put it this way: After the Oilers' goal, the only "offensive" highlights NHL.com showed from them was a routine save and Eberle missing the net entirely.

You're both wrong. Everyone has slammed a water bottle in frustration at some point. That is hardly a hissy fit. But it most certainly is not leadership either.

ROW Would be the tie breaker which the Flames hold.

They should've had a bare knuckle fight on the bench...assert their dominance. Lol Hall probably would have blown his knee out in the process and Eakins would have celebrated with a tray of vegetables and fruit.

What a joke that team is.

That Eakins lost his #### on Hall in the first place is embarrassing for Eakins, not Hall.
This. If Eakins laughs it off it lightens the mood on the bench.

His temper tantrum did not help them one bit. Not that I'm complaining.

They should have kept Kruger, at least they looked semi-organised with him. Eakins has been a disaster.

He was probably choked that he only bought one of those half price suits at Moores, and might have to spend 20 bucks on dry cleaning. He is clearly ECHL material.

Also- Cammalleri's delayed pass to Byron while Hall stood there pirouetting with a look of sheer panic was a thing of beauty.

Not a memorable night for Hall.

Eakins comes across as a big baby in this.

Not to mention the rest of the oilers coasting in from center to give Cammalleri ages to make a play.

At the 40 second mark Hall says something that causes a teammate to pick his head up and say something, while Eakin's gets angrier. Couldn't have been a good thing.

After that exchange, you can tell who has control of things for the Oilers...yeah Eakins reacts like a baby, but Hall should never ever run his mouth back. If Hall had apologized it would have went differently...but he talked back to the coach and grabbed some pine like he deserved.

We tied last year I thought. Before that it's been several years of Flames dominating the Oilers I think.

I see how this can make Eakins furious. After all, rayon suits at International Clothiers only go on sale 2 for $99 once in a while.

And then Perron gave him a pat on the shoulder. Hard to tell if that was a supportive pat or a shut-the-hell-up pat. I'd love to know what he said.

I wonder if Eakins is beyond the point of no return as far as having the room goes.
