Wild card game.

 

[Fro]

its a trap.... 2 points or bust!

 

[blahblah]

I would like to see Erixon in for Savard; but it probably won't happen.

i doubt we'll see JJ or Wiz sat...and arguably both played much better recently...so that leaves pretty much 6 or 58 to sit...IF Erixon goes in...I think Mixer alluded last night that he was gonna play...

 

[JACKETfan]

I look forward to confirmation of the theory that we miss Ketih Acton's bear rasslin intensity, and seeing if it wins the game for the Oylurs.

 

[Heinze 57]

It feels like we always struggle in Edmonton so I'm expecting a wild game.

5-4 Blue Jackets with a late goal by...........Murray.

 

[FANonymous]

I keep hearing rumors about how we're going to be trading Ryan Murray and Ryan Johansen for Hemsky and a conditional 3rd.

 

[Samkow]

Guaranteed win.

 

[Fro]

UPDATE (12:50 PM): Oilers defenseman Justin Schultz is back in the lineup tonight after missing eight games due to a groin injury. The 23-year-old Schultz, out since Oct. 29, brings a dynamic element to Edmonton's blueline and they'll no doubt be thrilled to have him back.

UPDATE (12:30 PM): Devan Dubnyk will start in goal for the Oilers tonight. With newly-signed Ilya Bryzgalov being called up earlier this week, the Oilers want to get him a couple more practices before he returns to game action.

Should at least be a conditional 2nd

Hoping for another strong game. Go Jackets!!!

I don't think you mess with the chemistry after the Ottawa game, ride it out until someone is exposed. Savard was good early, then went in a funk and seems to have pulled out of it for now. Though I'm excited to see if Erixon can boost the offense from the D spot. But that was as complete a game as they have had in a very long time so i ride the same lineup

#CBJ will go with the same lineup tonight vs #Oilers as they continue 5 game road trip. Prout, back spasms Erixon and Skille scratches.

 

[blahblah]

What I find kind of interesting that that Edmonton has 5 players with 5 goals. Same number as us. However we also have Johansen with 6.

Right now the Jackets are on place to have 7 players with 20 or more goals (add Foligno). Sadly, none at 30. With Gabby out for a while, that might reduce that number to 6.

Figured Erixon would be out. It's hard to change what worked.

#CBJ Sergei Bobrovsky and #Oilers G Ilya Bryzgalov went to dinner as part of group last night. Who paid? "Tyutin," Bobrovsky said w a smile.

Injured or not, Gaborik was going to be lucky to hit 20 the way he has played...I like that we have a lot of guys with potential 20 goals. Shows they have some depth and aren't looking to one guy the whole time.

need to win

This game will go to OT. Russians know how to fix games.

 

[Robert]

Two points tonight would be outstanding but even one will do... I didn't think Erixon would play but at least he's with the team..

 

[jackets4life]

If we're really moving up in the world as a franchise, we need to start walking out of places like Edmonton and Calgary with 2 points, regardless of where we are in the standings right now. We get that chance tonight.

 

[Nordique]

We can get 4 points in Alberta if we build on what we did last week. Must not revert to prior form.

 

[Gulvorn]

Is the game on FSO tonight? Didnt see it on the guide

So what Bryz Bob Tyutin Nikitin Arty and Yak all went out for a nice little dinner? How dare they associate with the enemy!
