They played a pretty good game against a team bigger, tougher and reeling with an absolute need to get their game on track.

I thought our bottom six created some havoc out there tonight and that will start to pay dividends.

....Oh (frank) I don't know.

Anyone know if that was the same linesman that (frank)ed em on the offside call against the Stars? That would be priceless.

He was straight useless. Hall was sloppy. Nuge was meh,

Nuge plus 10-15lbs makes a big impact tonight. (frank) that team is big and strong

Not sure...

I was so annoyed and irrational I even blamed our guys for not noticing the moment Hall was stopped by the ref, it seemed liked they kept rushing for just a second too long.

Back to back wins to close this stand out is a must

Cant believe we just got that point stolen from us. Speechless

Kings haven't given up a whole lotta goals this season either. A goalie like quick steals ya games. A linesmen with the perfect pass to break up the oil getting the puck deep with less than a minute left just adds to the fun

one poopty break cant be the reason for a loss... the team cant generate offense.

I suppose you didn't watch the game. Not the reason for a loss, but sometimes teams battle to a 1-1 draw some nights, a bad break like that isn't the responsibility for a loss, but the loss of at least one point. Which is pretty big this season.

I can dig that. I will also agree that for the most part officiating has been pretty subpar all season. The offside feom last night was beyond bad. I'm more frustrated that the oilers arent lighting it up more often. Thats not the style they should be playing with the scoring potential they have. A guy like babcock or boucher is who I'd love to see coach this team.

They gave up way too many shots but they had their chances. Quick was stellar as usual. Khabby played unbelievable as well. I totally agree if ya score more goals you will win more games but ya arent gonna score a ton of goals every night. It literally was just bad luck as hall is gonna chip the puck deep into the kings zone with just under a minute left, the linesman doesnt get outta the way and kings turn it back up quick, get a nice tip and bounce and boom 2-1 with 50 seconds to play. just bad luck is all. But had they shown up in the second period before there was 5 minutes left in the period, it could have been different. Still though, could be worse, could have as much trouble scoring as the kings

The fact you can't score 5 on 5 has nothing to do with it?

Stu was calling the shots, but KP pretty much took the bull by the horns with Hartsi when they were up in the 6th. Pipeline show had a blog on this.

Cool - I didn't know that. Well, I guess the next few years will tell us what Stu is worth.
