I wasn't sure about Knoby when he first joined the team, in fact I couldn't stand listening to his interviews. His definitely changed my mind. His thoughtful, reserved yet insightful answers give us a small window into this man's brilliance. Great job!!
I remember him when he played for the Erie Otters. It wasn't uncommon for him to play half the game back then (after McDavid left). Nice player to have.
3 solid lineup changes that address a specific issue the Oilers needed to fix. Talk about a coach who is in tune with his players and accurately matched the needs of the team. Our resilient and relentless effort will beat the skill of Dallas every day of the week. We might be the first team who best Defence is a relentless Offensive/Defensive Attack. There were no free-loaders this game and I loved every second of it!!
This guy was completely overlooked for Jack Adams. His brilliance to make bold moves is the most impressive since Pete Chiarelli for this franchise. (Last comment was a joke, but not the brilliance part.)
I remember Kris when he was coach of the Erie Otters. I always liked his coaching style, even back then. It's no surprise to me that he is doing so well at the NHL level. Go Oilers!
Dudes made so many adjustments already, and we're winning games because of them too. Woody wasn't even close to this guy's level. I have no doubt we'll lose because of our coach this year, which is a great feeling.
It worked beautifully and successfully . keep the changes as is now it's effective and strong . Oilers unbeatable in this form . results prove Oilers, stanley cup final round worthy . good job guys
Holloway, Brown , Janmark and Ryan have played great. To have our bench full of good solid players is really been nice. Anyone gets injured we have Gagner too. Thats quite a bit of solid bench players.
Im a big fan of changing up the and using the bench players. Thats why we have them. We have lots of professionals. As soon as you see a stagnent game, switch some players out. Like we did in vancouver and we won the last 2 witu Carrick and changed the momentum with Pikard. I do wish in this series we would have gone to Pikard in game 2 or game 3. Even game 4. Its gonna be too late to go and try Pikard and give skinner a break unless dallas blows skinner out in game 5. Skinnet hasnt lost maybe games the last 2 rounds but he hasnt really won any either where he was the difference in the game
At first I thought we’re done…time to put in PICKARD BUT STU SKINNER STEPPED UP HUGE IN NET. then we awoke amazing how things changed. Finally an OILER WIN …much needed.we learned to turn the script on them. Now on to game 5. See what happens when you play 60 minutes of high octane hockey. Great game by all.,especially McDAVID, LEON,,HOLLOWAY, EVEN NURSE STEPPED UP BIG, BOUCH, FINALLY McLEOD. Corey PERRY was outstanding . I guess he’s not a fossil anymore. Broberg was fantastic. Janmark and BROWN 2-1 punch short handed beauty. . Next game let’s get that powerplay back in gear… OILERS WIN ON A COMPLETE 60 MINUTE PERFORMANCE.
This lip service to Nurse is falling on deaf ears here. A liability through 3 rounds. Continually going against the grain in the d zone. Turnovers galore, soft presence in front of the net.
send Nurse to AHL ))) $ 9.5 million🤑 man has WORST performance among ALL Oilers during postseason with ( - 12 ) 😝 send Nurse to AHL ))) $ 9.5 million🤑 man has WORST performance among ALL Oilers during postseason with ( - 12 ) 😝 send Nurse to AHL ))) $ 9.5 million🤑 man has WORST performance among ALL Oilers during postseason with ( - 12 ) 😝
Where's that crying about the refs like last game,huh? The refs changed the momentum of the game against the Stars for you this time. You should've been called on that high sticking at the start of the game, would've been a PP for Dallas. They also blew the whistle for no reason when the Stars had the puck, blocked Stars passes along the boards, etc. Oh, NOW the refs are ok,aren't they Knobby?
