K-9 Posted March 9 Report Posted March 9 Just now, ExWNYer said: There was a lot of pearl clutching on these boards after they dealt Mitts for him. You can expect the pearl clutching to recommence when Byram cools off and Mitts heats up in Colorado. But it’s easy to see why Byram was thought of as a good player with a ton of upside. 5 Quote
Believer Posted March 9 Report Posted March 9 Standing around in our own zone… Playing 5x5 like it’s a PP instead of going after the puck… Lucky to escape that shift. Quote
GoPuckYourself Posted March 9 Report Posted March 9 We've missed 4 shots on net and 2 of them should have been easy goals. Quote

Surround Mitts with a good team in a winning enviroment with good coaching and I’d expect him to take a step forward. The inverse could be true with Byrum but hopefully not. 1 Quote
Scottysabres Posted March 9 Report Posted March 9 I thought they played a good, hard nosed 1st period. Unfortunate bad angle off the body goal and Skinner falling down to start the shortie rush, but over all, they weathered this high end talent Oilers team very well. A lot of stick work and body work against puck movement in the D zone, you can clearly see it breaks up the flow of the oilers slick players. Failure to bury chances continues to plague this team, and I counted 3 golden opportunities around the Oils net. But if I stand corrected, very good. Need finish, these guys must get the killer instinct back. 1st Period Grade: B- 3 Quote

French Collection Posted March 9 Report Posted March 9 This is a men’s league Power, a one handed wave at the puck is not enough to keep it in vs a man with two hands on his stick. Quote
steveoath Posted March 9 Report Posted March 9 Have they all been playing like poop since they started wearing the turtlenecks? 🤔 Quote
Stoner Posted March 9 Report Posted March 9 Game is there for the taking. Oilers didn't seal the deal early. 3 Quote

RochesterExpat Posted March 9 Report Posted March 9 Not sure how many here regularly watch the Amerks, but Byram reminds me of Novikov between the speed and willingness to pinch. Weird comparison but now I can’t unsee it. 1 Quote
rickshaw Posted March 9 Report Posted March 9 And the we have to find a penalty against Buffalo call. Honestly we should have 5 goals already. Quote

Scottysabres Posted March 9 Report Posted March 9 Come on Boys, you have to bury those chances, pull out the killer instinct in you. Quote

Believer Posted March 9 Report Posted March 9 Geez… Missed opportunity there… Only get so many in a game… Wasting ours. Quote

French Collection Posted March 9 Report Posted March 9 They have often made opposing goalies look like Hasek but they can’t hit the net today. Quote

Doohicksie Posted March 9 Report Posted March 9 Once again Dahlin too fancy in his own zone. It's starting to really annoy me. Quote
