OILERS GET SOROKIN’D. Post-Game Fan Reaction: Oilers vs Islanders
The Edmonton Oilers got goalied. Connor McDavid’s point streak comes to an end. Kris Knoblauch ran his top guys into the ground again. Also no timeout with under a minute to go on the Islanders icing? At least Connor Ingram had a solid game 🧡💙 Austin breaks down what went right and wrong in tonight’s Fan Reaction. #oilers #edmontonoilers #nhl

Great vid as always dude keep up the good work with every “breakdown” video you do Austin. Also hope you have a good rest of your days ahead man!
Leon just throwing games now he is sooo bad I’d trade him for two first liners
Toronto dropped the ball.
Hey Austin, I see you guys need a win. Don't worry, this Saturday the Canucks will grant your team a win
Okay but bouchards shot off the post bouncing out of the net from literal air is crazy 😂
Sorokin played great. But it is not the first time to see a goal go in and Bouchard standing there doing nothing. Same old.
The Oilers are not going to win a Cup. Get used to it. Understand it. This team is simply not a good enough TEAM. … And their coach doesn't have the ability to given them at a chance at it.
I still can't believe Drai missed that wide open net. Laffs screw up as always..
missed an open net shot. smh
Austin hockey MC server when?
Drai is losing his magic.
Finally get good goal tenders and can’t score wtf
So hard to watch this team. The team is like 3 guys. This aint gonna work….
Knights beats the Leafs. Thats why, Leafs choked!!
Bro can’t stop losing by one we need play harder to secure a spot playoff
Dang they going to let this home game go to waste aren’t they?
Man I just wish that would've been post in and not post out… Mcdavid streak would've been alive and he would've potted a goal in the OT. One can dream… 😅
Don’t look now but San Jose and Seattle are basically tied with EDM and only two are getting in the playoffs.
Welchen Nutzen haben Savoie und Howard? Es ist Zeit das Experiment zu beenden, holt Sherwood und Coleman. Tauscht Nurse gegen Andersson !!!
I wanna know WTF Bowman is/was thinking. This team needs bottom 6 producers fast. This current team does nothing come playoff time. If we even make the playoffs.
We need to get a 3C. It allows Roslovic to go back to the Drai and pods line. Also pods needs to call his number more. Everyone and their mother can see that as soon as he gets the puck he looks for Leo. Kapanen is the type of guy I’d love in the bottom 6 as a spark plug.
Draisaitl – thanks for the unnecessary penalty and for giving the Islanders a scoring opportunity! 🤪
He also led the game in turnovers (4) and had only one shot on goal.😝 and missed an open net shot
And not a word about lazy Leon after he lost the game single-handedly?🤑
"IT DOESNT MATTER HOW THEY PLAYED THEY LOST THEREFORE MUST CHANGE LINES" – Chris Knoblach definitely
Wow, I got so bored with this game! That said, and despite the team did not played bad, and had certainly several good scoring chances, the best thing I can say is that Connor Ingram has been a good addition for the Oilers' goaltending. I guess the sample size is already acceptable to make that statement.
Thanks for the post-game, your analysis sounded spot-on. Always look forward to your videos. Keep pushing Oilers! Love from Down Under 🥅🏒🦘🇦🇺
Meh, it was a really good game. It’s unfortunate They didn’t win, but their goalie was amazing. Unfortunately their shots just didn’t go in. I don’t think it’s worth crashing out over.… i’m sure they will win the next game.
Cheers
Stauffer asked Cam Moon if they should call a timeout there and Cam didn't see the point. Well, I think you just call the timeout. You call the timeout and you let the players visualize how they're going to hit the net when they have a wide open shot. These are tried and tested things that have worked in the past, so why not do them now?
I want a new coach for the team! Now!!!
at this point, the oilers are over. the bowman jackson curse has hit hard and the team has been destroyed. think its bad now? imagine if mcd or drai get injured, this team is done. riding on these 2 players is a disaster, yet that is the way bowman jackson want it. no new coach? nothing happening on bottom 6. the whole team is 97 and 29. disaster waiting to happen. glad i missed the game and the highlights. the oilers are over.
I’m sad the streak ended to. But what this team needs to do is play more simpler hockey. Pucks on net! Get fancy less often, then it will be less expected.
Knoblauch is a clown in how he distributes ice time to his players and essentially doesn't trust any young players. Edmonton has next to no chance to attract young players to play in their market under the current coach.
Constant knoblock scapegoating is lowkey exhausting.
Will not be surprised if the Oilers don't make the finals this year.
This team is absolutely beatable at playoff time this year.
I talking like Jack Michaels, hoping
to reverse engineer a championship 😅😅.
I think the penalty kill and power play really messed with that third line ice time. Like I get savie is a PK guy but Howard doesn’t do either so like I think anytime there are three or four penalties total for either team his TOI will be low if you take like 8-12 minutes of the game off the table. So 48-52 minutes available and then 9-11 minutes it’s like 25% off the 5v5 time
imo ingram is way better than jarry! he is calm and big
I think Janmark is too slow. Gotta get some younger legs in there. Thumbs up for Ingram.
Maybe they can lose 3 in row, this team gives me acid reflux
The Islanders were outplayed big time! Ny got lucky!
Got goalie'd, at least ours was also making saves. Strange puck luck and missed chances. Unfortunately Vegas builds on their points lead
Most typical oilers loss when our goalie plays well, we get out goalie’d. And also that jack michaels call was so weird.
Fire knob. He obviously hates pickard. But what goalies ever develop under knob? Knob is a cancer in many ways.
Can we dress 6 forwards and 15 defensemen
9min in and KK is loading up the top line. Why?! Its 0-0 and the other lines were doing good.
Barzal had forever to make that pass. Nobody challenged him, maybe thinking to cut off the pass to the slot? Ugh. Better to pressure him. And the Oilers weren't playing passive PK, why start then?
If you watch the replay on the post to post shot, the puck literally curves at the goal line. I just think the universe didn’t want them winning
I was banging the table all offseason to trade for Sorokin. Dude is seriously a top 3 goalie in the league.
If the rangers are thinking about rebuilding, we could afford Sheshterkin if we trade Jarry, and LTIR Henrique, Frederick. Send the rangers 5 1sts for all I care
Call me insane At that cap hit, you expect a defenseman who drives play every night, elevates his partner, and can calm things down when games get messy. Nurse doesn’t do that consistently, yet he takes up franchise-defenseman money, which hurts the team economically and caps out roster flexibility. That contract alone makes it harder to build real depth. Goaltending was never the problem. Skinner getting traded just proved it—he’s been excellent in Pittsburgh, putting up strong numbers and giving them steady, confident starts behind a structured team. The issue in Edmonton has always been the lack of depth and balance. The bottom six still offers almost nothing, so when the top guys are shut down, there’s no fallback. Woodcroft at least had structure and got usable minutes out of the lineup; that’s gone now. Knoblauch hasn’t shown a real flip-the-switch factor, and without depth or a reliable defensive core, this team keeps running into the same ceiling.
Just curious, when did you get so superstitious Austin?
