@dstaples@TheCultofHockey@edmontonjournal 2 games vs teams currently in playoff position, 4 games vs bottom feeders. 5 wins.
The next few games will definitely tell us more about this team.
@WaitingforRandy@dstaples@edmontonjournal Probably not right away. Work Savoie back in. But I think they give it a look because I believe the 2nd line will need Podz to be effective.
Also puts a rightie on L1 and L2 instead of 3 lefties on L1 and 2 righties on L2.
@NeilGarritty@dstaples@edmontonjournal Nurse has the skills to overcome his hockey sense issue. So instead of being a #1, he is a top 4. Good player, just not $9.25.
Back to original point, spec only reported what he believed to be true (as he was told by people in oilers org).
@NeilGarritty@dstaples@edmontonjournal Oh. You’re saying it wasn’t true they were going to bench him in SCF?
You could be right, but I don’t think spec fabricated it. Oilers Mgt leaked it (true or not). For Nurse to waive NMC.
@VintageOilers I always thought Dave Browns jersey was tighter on his left arm because it was disproportionally strong. But he just made sure no one could grab onto it.
@NeilGarritty@dstaples@edmontonjournal Why are you pointing to one specific place in time?
The overall comment from Spector was his hockey sense, which has prevented him from being a #1 d-man. His skating, size and puck skills are all #1 calibre.
@JasonGregor@Donsterwct Did anyone notice the urgency PP1 had the power play following the PP where they were taken of after 72 seconds?
THAT’s why you do it.
@R4938@dstaples@edmontonjournal And labelling a professional athlete as a “victim” because a reporter described his play accurately is peculiar to say the least.
@R4938@dstaples@edmontonjournal There’s a difference between a low IQ and someone who does not process the game of hockey well when playing on the ice.
Darnell has every tool, yet struggles with the game. He lacks hockey sense / has low hockey IQ.
Pouting because a reporter reported it, is cry baby stuff.
