Setting up the play?
Watching McDavid is really entertaining though. Just amazing to how a guy can receive a pass, lose the puck and complain to the ref all at top speed like that.
Lol we have Backlund at a lower price than Lucic.
Holy crap, I didn't realize this!
Remember when we almost* signed Lucic?Lol we have Backlund at a lower price than Lucic.
Yeah. Also Backlund will be making more than $3M less than Draisaitl over the course of his contract, and Draisaitl has done nothing to prove that he can run his own line.

McDavid had almost 25 mins of ice time tonight whereas Backlund led our forwards with 20:34. Why are they continuing to run him into the ground when their season is over? Dude's gonna be spent by the time he's 25
Many, many teams were. Which is hilarious because he was the most obvious bait ever.Remember when we almost* signed Lucic?
Peppridge Farms remembers.
*I really don't know how close we were per se, but we were sniffing around.

Bennett is a better center, he's never had the same calibre of wingers / played with McDavid (except in minor hockey, when he played with McDavid and they actually won games.)
Maybe for the fans. The Oilers players were getting bullied all night by the Flames and didn't put up a fight.Tonight was the Oilers' Stanley Cup.

Well, maybe other than every other power forwards. And defensive dmen. But Lucic in particular stand out because of how much he checked every boxes.
The one thing I didn't like about Shore was that he appears to have a very laboured stride. Which is fine for a centre in the right situation, but I don't know how effective he can be on the wing without any real foot-speed.I cannot believe how horrible Lucic is now, mind blown. That was a hard fought win, great team effort. Shore, and to a lesser extent Stewart were decent. I'd scratch Hathaway for Shore at this point.
Gaudreau-Monahan-Ferland
Tkachuk-Backlund-Frolik
Bennett-Janko-Lazar
Stajan-Shore-Brouwer/Stewart
My Wu hat is a snapback, sometimes we have to make sacrificesI like Mike Smith's hat!
Edit: awww, it's a snapback. Forget it.
I know they posted that as a joke, but I really liked Shore tonight
Most important takeaway of the night.
