Man the coverage of this game is terrible. Guys throwing shots at the net, the net isn't even on screen.

It’s been the same in the Oilers series as well. Not sure whose decision or why, but it’s clearly an intentional change. It’s just…not good.

It's about finding that next group of core players we can win with in the next 6, 8, 10 years. Let's face it, it's hard for 20-, 21-, 22-year-olds to lead an NHL team. Look at the playoffs.

I think it must be his defensive play (there was a really bad goal last game) but yeah we can't get anything going.

I don't either, and I thought Malgin has been OK this game, not worth sitting an entire period. Meyers was the third dude that sat and he's the only one I thought has been worth sitting.

There are times where I feel like having the top line with Rodrigues instead of Rants makes the team's life harder. Like I understand why they do it, but we have to work so hard to get the offensive zone, and then the puck just gets mishandled anyway.

I'm kind of with you there, but with Nichushkin out I don't even know what they do with that 2nd line to stop them from getting completely caved if you bring Rantanen back up to wing MacKinnon.

It's back to the GM twiddling his thumbs at the deadline, instead of getting Top 6 forward help.

Makar seemed well off his game after the penalty. Lots of missed passes, not the usual amazing positioning and flow. Seemed shook. So of course he was the guy killing the right side on the goal.

Not sure what the solution is, other than Bednar messaging that they know what the work looks like to win a cup, and you have to push through adversity. And maybe getting Nuke back (hopefully?) will make a difference. But…yeah.

Very well then. On to Game 5.

Rightly or wrongly, I feel like they thought Landy would be back. But yeah, with Val gone, it's hard to get the balance right.

The boo on the disallowed goal was the loudest booing I’ve heard there (second to the second disallowed goal in the game vs the Penguins back in October). The cheering after the OT goal was the loudest I’ve heard that place.

Holy hell what a game. Go kraken.

Yeah, love that it was such an easy offside pass and rewinds the clock to the missed stoppage like a high stick or puck out of play. It's not immunity, it's just a missed stoppage and it's this ones not even subjective.
