2017-18 Around the League | Congratulations Washington Capitals!

[sepHF]

Man Petry would look great in Oilers silks right now

 

[Del Preston]

Will Butcher already has eight assists.

Will Butcher already has eight assists.

Jersey looks like a great team all of a sudden.

 

[PatrikOverAuston]

Hamonic with his first of the season and Hamilton with a 3-point night.

'member when we could have traded Nurse and a pick for a 50-point defenseman? I remember. Nope, better to keep the guy who basically has no impact on a game in any actual facet besides having an excellent physique.

 

[Del Preston]

Yikes, Buffalo lost yet again.

why are you ripping Nurse

he's been basically the most consistant d-man on the team

Obligatory Matthews v McDavid thread up

 

[CycloneSweep]

Obligatory Matthews v McDavid thread up

McDavid > Matthews
Overall

Matthews >>> McDavid
At this moment

Its hard to believe but there are 75 players with more points than anyone on our team.

 

[Alowlyoilersfan]

guess I'll cheer for vegas a little bit for now. there is no other team I want to root for. Fleury being injured is going to be tough; he started off pretty well


they feel like the team of misfit toys

 

[Soundwave]

Anaheim loses again. Guess their season is also over.

 

[oilers'72]

Tonight:

Tampa Bay at Detroit @ 5:30 PM SN1, TVAS, FS-D, SUN

 

[oobga]

Kucherov is pretty damn good at hockey. He may actually be the guy challenging McDavid every year in the scoring race.

 

[nexttothemoon]

I wanted to draft Kucherov over Musil in that draft year... he'd look pretty good on a line with McDavid right now.

Of course the butterfly effect of drafting Kucherov would have probably meant the Oilers wouldn't have been in that exact spot they needed to be to draft McDavid.

Anders Nillson pitches a 32 save shutout against the red hot Sens.

David Perron notches two goals, including the OT winner against Buffalo.

Taylor Halls' Devils win again, improving to 5-1.

Pretty shitty night all around fellas . The worst is Nilsson because I always felt we should have kept him as our backup. Oh well...

 

[DanM]

As long as they don't win it all, I think that's a good thing. Offensive guys are paid based on their offensive totals (oh well if the team got scored on like crazy too), and those are the types of players all set to break the bank for the leafs to rip their team apart.

I bet you 5000 dollars that not only will they not rip the team apart, they will add to them, and keep drafting well. Why would you root against a team doing well? lol I actually hope success for my team and the Oil..

Pretty ****ty night all around fellas . The worst is Nilsson because I always felt we should have kept him as our backup. Oh well...

Perron actually had some off moments in the game as well and the LV club spend most of the 3rd period shatting the bed and basically giving the Sabres entry back into the game. Was some of the worst late game panic I've seen. Was almost impossible not for Buffalo to come from behind 3 goals to tie it.

Some nice moments in LV but man that was an ugly end of the game. Ice was totally tilted.

I didn't see the Sens game, I suspect they took a game off to be frank. Every club seems to do it.

That said I liked Perron here and wish he was still around. He has good hands. Commitment is a problem though.

 

[oobga]

Ottawa without Karlsson: 3-0-2
Ottawa with Karlsson: 0-1-0

They should trade that bum to us.

 

[oobga]

Why would you root against a team doing well?

 

[DanM]

Amazing!! This was a fantastic rebuttal, I clap for you sir

 

[oilers'72]

Tonight on the National:

Detroit at Toronto @ 5:30 PM SN360, SN1, TVAS, FS-D+
Chicago at St. Louis @ 6 PM NBCSN
Montreal at Los Angeles @ 8:30 PM NBCSN, TSN2 (regional), RDS

 

[Del Preston]

Crawford is playing for Chicago tonight. The backup Forsberg is likely to start against the Oilers tomorrow.

 

[BlackDogg]

Toronto is exactly what we wished and hoped we had.

 

[Soundwave]

Kadri and JVR keep doing work. Hyman also pitching in. Leafs are looking good have to admit. If they can add a top 4 D at the deadline ... look out.

I don't think they have more talent than us, it's just that their talent plays up to their full potential or beyond it, especially in the case of their "support" players.

Getting the most out of all your players, not just the super elite of the group and those fortunate enough to play with them. This is a foreign concept to Oilers fans.
