fair point but i think most of us felt that 4 years was a bit much. the Briere and DD signings were bad. everything else he's done has been meh. Prust was a good addition but at this point, he's not looking like a guy you can count on to be in the lineup regularly. every other move has been a depth move (Bouillon, Murray, Parros). i like what he's done in keeping/adding picks and replenishing the under-20 pipeline, but i'm also waiting for him to put his stamp on the NHL club at some point.

I agree. I'm content to give him some time. The cap drop and lock out had some impact on his plans no doubt as well.

u are wrong bumhole

I was at the game last night, Bell Center felt like a church for a funeral.

As for the rest, as far as people go on poopting on Desharnais (not without reason), I was looking at our 5M$ silent captain last night. He looks done.

They were also horrible in their own zone, I've never witness so many odd-man rushes in one game...good thing the Oilers fumbled a couple of them because it could have been ugly.

Price's pads really looked like they were made with the stuff they use for superballs last night.

Your captain scored a goal though

people don't poop on Gionta because he's 34 and in the last year of his contract. he gave a lot to this team in the past 4 years and overall, he has lived up to that contract. DD is in his mid or late 20s with 4 years to go on that contract and does absolutely nothing.

i agree. anyone who watched that first period was thinking "Eller was right, this is a junior team". both Montreal goals were the result of Edmonton just playing shinny and tossing it up the middle (the first penalty and the Gally goal). i don't think Eakins revealed the comment to a stunned Oiler team in the first intermission...

Perron said that Eakins came into the room kicking and screaming after the first period, and that it was the first time he saw him like that this season. Probably not the last.

that's what i was imagining. that first period looked like teams in different leagues. now it's not surprising that Edmonton pushed back. what's surprising is that once they pushed back, that was it. you didn't hear from Montreal the rest of the night really.
