I'm glad we only play the Oilers 3 times. This team is generating a lot of chances and they haven't been getting the results. We're gunna need a big game from Bishop. Go Stars!

 

[LoneStarHockey]

I agree, seems like every time we play in Edmonton it is a tough game. I am not even paying attention to those records.

 

[Troy McClure]

Pitlick's revenge.

 

[tofu]

That was an insane pass from Seguin and finish from Radulov. WOW.

 

[VicVinegar]

Sexy shot, would love to see more of that.

 

[Smelling Salt]

Good job by Pateryn on that 4th goal. Actually I blame Hitch for that.

 

[Kalamazoo Wings]

^ exactly it's on Hitch for putting him in there. Pretty brutal play.

I'm not sure how you win the special teams battle so convincingly yet you come out on the wrong end of things.

 

[HatchtrickBateman]

^i thought Pateryn played a pretty good game, especially for his first of the season. I wouldn't mind seeing him in there more, over Oleksiak at the very least.

 

[Troy McClure]

I thought Pateryn's shift after the goal was one of the worst shifts a d-man can have in the NHL. He was chasing the puck and kept getting in Hamhuis's way. He had no idea where to be and was simultaneously over aggressive and non-committal. Like he'd skate part way to where a scrum was but would stop putting him in this no man's land where he wasn't helping the puck battle and also had pulled himself out of position by starting to head in that direction. It seemed like he got rattled after assisting on the tying goal against.
