GDT: 1. Flames at Oilers: Season opener! Oct. 12 at 8pm MT on SNET

[Yarborough]

Well, at least make it close

 

[Zirakzigil]

Nice shot by Wides.

 

[InfinityIggy]

Wideman just ASSASSINATED that shot.

 

[Unlimited Chequing]

"Sam Bennett as a 20 year old on the power play"

Thanks Jim.

 

[Anglesmith]

That'll be an assist for Backlund, not Bennett.

 

[AgeOfBennett]

Holy crap that puck movement on the power play though... refs gonna find a way to call it no goal against Wideman

 

[InfinityIggy]

That'll be an assist for Backlund, not Bennett.

Praise Backlund.

 

[Zirakzigil]

Backs high sticked and no call

 

[MonaHan Solo]

Another missed call. Not even surprised.

 

[FlamerForLife]

Backhand just gave it to the ref there

 

[Bounces R Way]

Bennett confirmed beauty.

 

[Dertell]

Another no call. I'm shocked.

 

[AgeOfBennett]

Versteeg has been invisible tonight

 

[DCDM]

Versteeg has been invisible tonight

So has Monahan

 

[MonaHan Solo]

Versteeg has been invisible tonight

Yep. Hope Chiasson can get a shot on the 1st line. He has been pretty good.

 

[Zirakzigil]

Entire top line has been nonexistent.

 

[InfinityIggy]

Versteeg has been invisible tonight

He had a good ringer off the post earlier. Monahan and Gaudreau have also been very quiet though. Versteeg hasn't made any mistakes so fair either, I'm happy with his game tbh.

 

[Tkachuk Norris]

So has Monahan

Pretty much everyone has been bad.

Wideman and Grossman have been awful.

 

[AgeOfBennett]

Entire top line has been nonexistent.

Well considering 2 of them barely or didn't at all play in pre season and they both met the other last night at dinner haha

 

[Bounces R Way]

The worst thing about this game, apart from the Reffing and Elliott, is I think the Oilers might of found a first pairing.

 

[Zirakzigil]

A save!

 

[Yarborough]

Kulak and Kevin better be playing next game.

 

[FlamerForLife]

Pretty much everyone has been bad.

Wideman and Grossman have been awful.

Wideman hasn't been awful today, maybe not that great but certainly not awful

 

[InfinityIggy]

Grossmann does something.

 

[DCDM]

Wideman hasn't been awful today, maybe not that great but certainly not awful

Agreed, Wideman's been decent but of course is the recipient of every call in the book
