I know! The Oilers could trade McDavid to New York for Greentree and some conditional picks!

That was entertaining and satisfying!
Perfect result and 3 amazing interviews by Cooley, pissy and Lombo.
Edmonton media really are the worst, their questions and cadence are just so bad.
Have a great night everyone!

Gaskal could make an amazing ATL just using quotes from the post-game interviews.

The Quest stands upon the edge of a knife. Stray but a little, and it will fail, to the ruin of all. Yet hope remains while the Company is true. Go Flames Go!
Finishing up the PVR of the game . McDiver’s embellishment with about 3 min in the third was classic. Felt some contact from Back’s leg and threw himself to the ice . I am actually surprised refs didn’t call it. Hopefully they are getting wise to what a diving little b*tch he is.

This is what I'm saying! if a team offers you a 3rd round pick, take it so he can have another shot at a cup. Then give him a multi year deal in the summer
F’ing loser McDavid flying at Cooley with this skates up there at the end. Could have been bad for Cooley . Little b**** Mcdavid just skates away, no apology to Cooley . That’s the exact reason he hurt himself on the play the scum oilers fans blamed Gio for. Flying to the net trying to be a one man team.
13 seconds left. That was the perfect time for a flames D man to just smash that little prick for that play.
Over/under on the team having more passion tonight than Gavin McKenna in a college bar?
Quote:
Lets just go out there and have some fun at this point and make it to the olympic break injury free.
Quote:
Thanks to the Leafers clogging up Rogers Place like gutters in autumn last night in EDM, this game in Calgary feels like more of a home ice game.
Quote:
Probabaly the only clean battle of Alberta game Ive ever wanted, right ahead of Olympics.
Quote:
Can Olympic hockey just start already? So tired of watching this team not defending properly and I've barely seen them play all season.
Quote:
Finally win 3 in a row only to lose 3 in a row immediately after is on point for this team this year.
Quote:
Not expecting much.
Star players won’t want to get hurt and are focused on olympics. Calgary depth will outplay Edmonton depth. I predict Knoblauch will show no emotion tonight.
Quote:
It’s gonna be a looooong 3 weeks if we gas this game tonight. And the crowd will be extra surly when if Canada loses the Olympics.
And then consider how ####ty the Oilers are after breaks….
Quote:
You know that last day of work before you head out on vacation and you don’t really give two square f***s what work gets done before you’re out because you don’t want to do something to screw your holiday up, meanwhile the young guys are still trying to impress the boss going all out?
Well the Oilers are the first guy.
Quote:
Please Oilers show up for this one. I really couldn’t stand to see that smarmy look on Kadri’s face if we lose this one. Still fuming from yesterday.
Quote:
Can we at least tie the season series please. I believe this is our last game against them yeah?
Quote:
So German much wow
Drai: I'm so happy and proud
Also drai: absolutely 0 emotion
Hubey Dooby Doo on the PP!
Quote:
1st shot yet again.
Quote:
Lol @ goaltending upgrade
Quote:
Not a good goal
Quote:
Jarry… you need to limit the amount of chances you give up.
Quote:
Jarry goal against first shot.
f*** our goaltending sucks.
Quote:
Jarry looks like Skinner on that one
Quote:
It’s funny how we refused to trade for Gibson because of his full cap hit but we gladly paid a ransom to take on Jarry’s full cap for zero upgrade. Atleast Gibson would’ve been an upgrade so spending an extra mill would’ve been worth it to have a legit starter.
Quote:
I know this is an emotional in the moment overreaction but I want whoever is in charge of the PK to not be in charge of the PK after the break.
Quote:
This is ####ing BRUTAL. What are we doing?
Quote:
Calgary almost had 2 goals on 2 shots. Trying to give jarry some time before I trash him but holy hell.
Quote:
3 goals on their last 3 pks is Pejorative Slured
Quote:
I'm so frustrated watching this oilers team lately. Even if we win tonight, this defensive play is straight up not good enough. Reality is going to set in after the Olympics, we are running out of time to get this figured out! Knob and Bowman better do something, I hope both of their positions are in jeopardy after this embarrassing effort
Gridin from Weegs and… Cooley?
Quote:
Holy S wtf was that
Quote:
gonna be one of these games huh
Quote:
PK is about 10% in the past 10 games. Good stuff
Quote:
Calgary has had two shots and they both got past Jarry. Thank goodness for the crossbar. Hitting crossbars at both ends now.
Quote:
Another breakaway goal on a power play , our system sucks
Quote:
Walman and Nurse classic on that PK. 2 dumb as a mofo sieves absolutely blind. How do you fn let a player that behind you on the PK. Fn useless defensive players. Useless
Why the f*** is knoblauch playing these 2 sieves on a PK together. Like wtf is wrong with this coach ?
I absolutely df***ing hate Walman. This guy gets walked multiple times a game. Dumb as f***
Quote:
how the hell doe the defense keep allowing these breakaways
Quote:
I would actually love to know how many breakaways we've given up this year because it's gotta be a ####ing insane number. It's at least two a game I swear to God.
Quote:
4 breakaways on 5 shots. Awesome work guys. Mark stuart you … won’t be missed.
Quote:
How does no one track Gridin on a PK there?
Quote:
Wtf is happening with our PK. I don’t blame Jarry, these breakaways are atrocious
Quote:
Bouchard is such a f***ing idiot!!!
Quote:
Defense optional
Quote:
Too many turnovers by the Oilers.
Quote:
Sometimes your crossbar is your best player I guess.
Quote:
They miss 100% of the shots your crossbar takes
Quote:
Crossbar just an agent of chaos tonight I guess
Quote:
Breakaway, 2 on 1, breakaway, breakaway. And it's our top guys out there doing it.
Quote:
Just put in Ingram now
Quote:
How the f*** does this keep happening?
Quote:
Where was the f***ing defense? Once again, nowhere to be found
Quote:
If Oilers had as many breakaways and 2 on 1s as they give up they wouldn't lose many games
Quote:
Jarry doing god's work forcing Bowman's hand to ####can Stuart (and hopefully Knob) during the break
Quote:
Just have to laugh at this point. The Oilers are a bubble team barely anyway
Quote:
Not watching a second of this game. Just checked the score
Looks like the PK is still elite lol
Basically giving up goals at a 50% rate keep it up coaching staff!
Zary with a tip
Quote:
Theyre a mess.
Quote:
Skinner 2.0
Now with more cap hit!
Quote:
wow, this team. I don't even know what to say anymore.
Quote:
Wtf is our defense.
Quote:
These guys just need to disappear for three weeks. Just for my mental health. This is hideous hockey.
Quote:
Hopefully we atleast see some coaches fired after the game
Quote:
Attaboy Nurse. Way to clear the front of the net.
Quote:
Jarry is pretty much on his own with this garbage defence.
Quote:
I get Nurse is tired but if he’s going to screen Jarry he should at least tie up the forward’s stick
Quote:
lol at Nurse going for the fly by screen on his own goalie. Then Jarry gives him the look right after. WTF happened to this team?
Quote:
This turd of a dman loves screening a goalie, half hearted poke attempts to guys in the slot, not tying up sticks, or giving big gaps to guys to rip it
He does nothing right imo lol
Quote:
hmmm, no tip was required, lots of net to hit there
Quote:
This team looks like absolute ####. Fire the coach or become sellers if you have to protect these ####ty coaches.
Quote:
Jarry just wildly out of position there holy ####
Quote:
Maybe the boys really loved Skinner and Picks. I never thought they would look so bad after replacing both lol
It's the Oilers way. Goalies start off very well the first 15sh games or whatever it was. Then it all goes to hell lol.
It's like these nimrods thought we brought in 2 Shesterkins
Quote:
Nothing pisses me off more then losing to the worst team in the league and the worst city in the league
Quote:
Is a save percentage of .840 bad?
Quote:
Jarry had no clue where that shot was coming from.
Quote:
Everybody just thinks playoffs are a given with this team, it’s not.
Right now we are not in even a wildcard once the teams behind us play to our # of games. In the worst division.
We are bottom of the league in every defensive stat that matters, our goal tending is ass, and we don’t have a gritty edge that came with previous teams. We are not built for playoff success this year, if we even get there.
Quote:
Been dog#### since Christmas. Hoping to see some substantial adjustments when we’re back from Olympic break.
Lombo with the game winner!
Quote:
Maybe playing hacky sack in front of the net isn’t it
Quote:
Playing soccer and that f***ing caveman scores
Quote:
I don't think a single player on this team has a problem playing embarrassingly bad.
Quote:
This team is going on a massive losing streak coming out of the stupid Olympics as well lol. Will be partied out
Quote:
Holy f*** wtf is this weird ####
Quote:
Great, we go from a goalie that couldn’t get across the crease to one who does but keeps on going.
Quote:
The hell was Jarry doing? Why did he panic kick it? lol
Quote:
Opposition 4th line goal. Circus time
Quote:
Man Jarry just kicked it straight to him. Brutal
Quote:
Emberson just soccer-passed it to Lomberg.
Quote:
Jarry not good and Emberson decides to play soccer in front of his net. Just eat it FFS
Quote:
Who is Jarry gonna blame for that one
Quote:
Hey CGY, can some of your goons run around and LTIR Mangy and a dman or two?
Quote:
Tying the game and then giving up a goal to Lomberg a minute later is flat out unacceptable. Disgraceful
Quote:
Please god, give us a little something to look forward to after the dumb Olympics.
New coach at minimum
Quote:
Well it's time for the traditional Oilers strategy of "try like f*** for the last 5 minutes when we should have been playing like this for the first 55" to begin
Quote:
Oh BOYYYYYYYYYYYY not the ####ing FLAMES
Quote:
Won’t see them again until next season.
Quote:
Lol. LOVE the Lomberg Post-Game. He is a great interview.
Question: What did you see on that goal?
Lomberg: You guys teeing something up there? Well, I like Pizza 73 with Swiss Chesese.
Question: Like their goaltending?
Lomberg: Exactly.
Quote:
Jarry is asleep (and should probably shut up and do his job rather than whining like a spoiled brat), defense is ass, Knob needs to give his head a shake, D coach needs to be unemployed and this Nurse/Walman pairing needs to be nuked into oblivion. Also stop turning the puck over ever 5 seconds and taking stupid penalties. Thanks. Oh I almost forgot, get Mangiapane off the team.
Experience Oilers Hockey
Quote:
Helping to put the Vezina in "back up goalie". Your 2025-26 Edmonton Oilers.
Quote:
Knob: we've tried nothing and I'm all out of ideas. More Mcdavid and Draisaitl for half the game. That'll work.
Quote:
McDavid: I will leave 4-5mil per year on the table so that we can get a solid bottom 6.
Also McDavid a few months later: I guess I still have to do everything myself.
Quote:
We’re paying 16.2 million for a bottom pair of D so why stop there?
Quote:
I wish the NHL had another round of compliance buyouts
Quote:
Trying to force passes to the bitter end
Quote:
How can you possibly coach this collection of players into playing this ####ing terribly?
I swear they give up an odd man rush every 45 seconds.
Quote:
Another L to a pathetic team. Oilers must have the record for losses while outshooting by 10+
Quote:
I am Jack’s (and Bob’s) inflamed sense of dejection.
Quote:
Can someone please explain why Knob didn't take a timeout with a minute left, only for our overplayed players to look tired as #### for that last minute??
Quote:
First words out of Drai's mouth..."Can't defend."
And then says Jarry needs to make more saves.
Jarry has already alienated the room...lol.
Edit: Holy ####!
Drai burning the house down. Called out the coaches too.
Quote:
Drai: we are not the same team ....starts with the coaches...4 or 5 guys can't do it (Mcdavid, Drai , Nuge , Hyaman Bouch)
Knob: yeah we will make some adjustments re evaluate
Complete disconnect in this locker room im telling you knob has lost the room
Quote:
I can't wait for the Olympics so I can feel what it's like to maybe win something again.
-Me, and Connor McDavid
Quote:
Bowman has destroyed this team. Anyone who thinks this year's team has any sort of shot at contending is either misinformed or delusional. It hurts to accept, I know. It didnt have to be like this.
