[OOT] November 27, just one game.

Rinne was the main reason the Predators won this game as he stopped all 37 shots for the SHUTOUT.

Holy cow, I've just seen Halls play on the OT winner. He just wasn't bothered, he simply wasn't bothered. You see Eberle motion to him to take his place whilst he traced the other man on the point, Hall just slowly moves into position and then lets himself get beaten by a simple spin-o-rama by Forsberg.

This wasn't about him being bad in his own zone, this was just about him giving up. Not sure whether he was tired(had he been out in that shift very long?) or what, but his body language in the entire play was alarming. Then when Forsberg scores, Hall doesn't even react. Scary how that whole goal came about and I'm not even an Oilers fan.

No surprise from the SN Oilers crew as they picked the 3 stars, there were 2 Oilers Fasth and someone else. Rinne was the 1st star. The bizarre stat is after 25% of the Oilers game vs western conf teams, they still haven't won a game. LOL.

Can't blame him. He shuts Nashville out for 62 minutes, then loses anyway both because he failed to stop that and because the team in front of him stinks worse than the cars in a Fabreeze commercial.

He had been out for 90 seconds but still no excuse. Usually when guys get beat by a spin-o-rama the spinner has speed. I don't know if I've ever seen a guy beaten this way when the spin comes almost from a dead stop.

Hall was being Hall - fishing for a turn over instead of playing solid fundamental defense. There are a myriad of ways he could have played that differently - all of which would have resulted in Forsberg not beating him.

Just an awful play that should be used to mock Taylor relentlessly.
