Yeah I think DeBrusk is pretty good, not counting his playing days

It still blows my mind that the regular Oilers broadcast has Drew Remenda over Debrusk. Mind bottling.

I can't imagine him telling Gio to not only take an obvious dumb penalty but then follow it up with an unsportsmanlike penalty.

Did he tell Monahan to turn it over and not skate hard back and not do anything in the corners for 6 straight games?

And pretty sure he didn't tell Gio to get burnt by the scrub Yakupov. People blaming the coach are letting the players off the hook.

Giordano should be taking a lot more heat for this start. He's been awful. That contract looks awfully frightening at the moment.

This is absolutely painful to watch. The really difficult thing about it is that there is no reason to believe we are going to come out of it anytime soon. How long can this go on? Obviously Treliving cannot fire a coach that he just hired but some type of shakeup has to be made if this continues.

The Blues "escaped" with a 4-2 lead?

Great stuff as per usual, Roger.

It's either GG or treliving at this point. Treliving is starting to feel the heat.

Flames have a chance to lose the Giordano contract in the expansion draft.

Cmon. I hated the Oilers huge back in the day. I'm old enough to have witnessed the true battle of Alberta. Linesman, Semenko, Tikannen, Anderson, frikkin McSorley. God there was more than enough to loathe, that you could still give Gretzky a pass, and still have enormous hate to vent.

Just remember Grtezky was a Harper supporter. That pretty much killed it for me!
