  1. Chris, you don't see the situation from the outside! You are a hostage to the fact that you confuse warm with soft! A good guy and a good goalkeeper are two DIFFERENT things. You are a COACH, they cannot be without tough, bloody decisions! Ayrton Senna said, "Good guys don't win races.."He knew what he was saying. You should have stopped feeling sorry for Skinner a long time ago, he DIDN'T FEEL SORRY for you by putting the team out 4-1. He framed the WHOLE team, giving the killer whales the strongest charge of faith that they can win even losing 4-1!!! It's Skinner's fault. He can be as GOOD a guy as he likes, but he plays UGLY. Hockey cannot be betrayed – HOCKEY will not forgive this. The cup requires sacrifices and decisions, you will NEVER see it if you play the role of a good uncle for boys. You must become the captain of a pirate ship and recruit the most desperate villains. Start making TOUGH decisions (it's time to punish Kane's removal with monetary fines or his withdrawal from the squad). You should ONLY think about the Cup and the TEAM. Skinner didn't WANT to think about anyone but himself, he was too lazy to change his game, he sincerely considers himself a star, being a mediocre goalkeeper. Chris, if you're LIKE EVERYONE ELSE, you won't see the cup. Do everything for HOCKEY, not for the good boys. You're not going to drink coffee here.

  2. I truly hope I'm wrong..
    Skinner hasn't proven he can handle early series playoff pressure.. how do we expect him to handle game 6 elimination game pressure…

  3. As a Canucks fan. I think the idea to put Skinner in net is the sign of an immature NHL coach, but we are happy he made the decision.

  4. I’d go with Pickard too, but I’m not the coach and none of us know what’s happening behind-the-scenes. They’re going to make a decision that gives us the best chance to win tonight, one game!

  5. We believe you Knober and to the Team! Tell them to check and don’t let Mcdavid man to man of other team!Do it!!!

  6. Is it just me or did Knoblauch give the middle finger to the entire Oiler fan base? Lol … by putting Stu back in for game 6? You tell em' Kris, the fans don't run my hockey team! Lol

  7. That's ok Kris you can apply for a assistant coaching position in san Jose after you lose tonight 😂😂😂😂😂😂GO CANUCKS GO 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉GO CANUCKS GO 🎉🎉🎉🎉GO CANUCKS GO 🎉🎉🎉🎉

  8. Why is Adam not playing, he still injured? I think he's a good asset to the team, putting Stu back in while I do like him as a goalie but he has his ups and downs and Pickard prooved he's capable of not allowing in much goals and staying calm.
    I think its crazy to put Stu back in, especially when the oilers end is on the line.

    Hoping we will win but I'm having my doubts, unfortunately

  9. Really dislike this coach.
    Gets too much credit for the success of a Team with some fantastic players. Whenever he's had to actually COACH, make decisions and adjust he's done nothing.
    Should never have gotten a rookie coach for a veteran playoff contender.

  10. This guys wife wears the pants. Was probably her who told him to put Skinner in net lol Go Canucks!

  11. Note to Skinner….anything below a .909 SV% is exactly why you are the risker choice. The entire hockey world knows it…except for Knoblauch of course. So go do it, save 40 shots bag your .910 SV% and win the game for your team, the fans and yourself. It's go time. I genuinely wish you the best of luck. Have a great game Stu! Go Oilers!

  12. Lmfao the series is done today. They were never beating Van. Hopefully new GM will actually make this team a contender.

  13. What a bunch of jerks on here, it's quite unreal. I don't see any of you vying for the job. He make more decisions and money than you all combined. Lay off the guy.

  14. Oilers fans are the worst fans in the entire league. Skinner is your number 1 goalie and a big part of Edmonton’s success this season. Show some faith in your team, it’s still anyone’s series. Regardless of the outcome it’s been fun to watch. Instant classic! Go Nucks go!

  15. Between battle of the third stringers and PicKard winning and has a much better percentage and doesn't let one of the first three shots in, for EVERY game it seems like AHL Stu…Why isn't Jack Campbell practising with the team, he deserves to show what he can do, doesn't he? Opinions are like assholes, here is mine…p.s.NEVER VOLUNTEER FOR A BIOWEAPON!
