“This is a game that should have ended 6-1, but it ended 5-4. They allowed the Blackhawks to stay close, which forced the Oilers to use their top players more than they wanted to (- with another game tomorrow night).” – Rob Brown on 630 Ched postgame show. Exactly, Rob. And RNH just shouldn’t have taken that careless 4:00 minute penalty. . . . Hyman is like a net-front version of Evander Kane – he never met a 2ft shot that he didn’t like to take.
What a game, definitely a lot of anxiety in that 3rd period but glad we pulled through. 97 with another nice goal, and the one timer by 29 was beauty. I feel we will be tired tomorrow vs the wild but hopefully we can play a solid game on a back to back. Our Defense definitely needs to tighten up especially late in games to prevent these type of games haha.
A win over a poor team that was allowed to get back in the game. I watched on American channel and they were loving Barrie so much I expected to hear he was traded to the hawks. Wild a different game tomorrow . US commentators were concerned with bottom 6 not getting enough ice time and over playing the top line. I agree . Bottom six need ice time . Keep the vids rolling.
Why did Ceci take take a faceoff win to the front of the net and then got stripped!!? They scored!!? Very stupid. All he had to do is go behind the net.

Defense played great arguably for 45 minutes, especially Barrie. Last 10/15 minutes they were trying to kill us.
Man that was a close one. We nearly had a third period meltdown. Hey Patrick, didn't all the people at work say it would be a 5 – 4 game?
The oilers don't seem like they can manage to win in a low-scoring game.
Stop talking about Toews and Kane, Oilers need a shutdown defenseman.
Nurse played 29.09 and plus 4. Proberg looked lost out there. Why didn't they play Murray?

I think Skinner is Christian because of the 3 crosses painted behind his mask
