SOLI'S SHORTSIDE​

• Eyes on the Pacific division standings tonight.
  
  
• Ken Holland & Zach Hyman on After Hours.
  
  
• Jack Campbell manning the starters net.
  
  
• Pleasantly surprised Colton White (one of my 2015 HFOil Mock Draft late round picks) is still finding NHL games here and there.

a win and you can formally put an "x" beside their name

hopefully they remember that last time the Ducks came to town and avenge that embarrassing performance and put the boots to them

 

[TopShelfGloveSide]

Lol of course the flames get them tomorrow.

In their next 5 games Vegas plays the Wild back to back, Nashville and then the Kings and Stars.

The Oilers play the Ducks twice, with the Kings in between those games and then San Jose, and Colorado.

Kings play the Krarken, Canucks, Oilers, Vegas and then Colorado.

This is going to get VERY interesting.

 

[5 Mins 4 Ftg]

Need 8 goals tonight.

 

[PaPaDee]

Gotta win tonight if they want to keep their division hopes alive.

Need 8 goals tonight.

Probably the right move to start him. Keep Skinner fresh for the playoffs and maybe if the stars align, Campbell can get going a bit.

Oh I agree, got to get Campbell some starts. We will need him if we plan on going deep.

That said, still probably need to score 8 to win.

 

[Drivesaitl]

That the NHL awarded Anaheim a franchise on the basis of a Disney Movie and put it the team next to Disneyland is its own joke.

That the team subsequently won the SC on the basis of obtaining Chris Pronger from us is a dirty joke.

That the Ducks employ a duck as head coach in order to get the next one is another joke.

The world is all Fake AI people. Not sure what to tell you. April Fools day, none of this is real.

 

[LemmyUlanov55]

I want to see Campbell doing well. Hope he gets some solid D support and has a good game.
In case all goes wrong, McDrai to the rescue, haha.

Go Oilers!

 

[Leonardlizard]

What a cartoon villain of a head coach...fitting for a cartoon team

 

[Ritchie Valens]

Oilers win a squeaker. 12-10.

 

[HockeyGuy1964]

I'm just hoping for a stress free game where we take care of business.

Jack Campbell could probably use one too.

 

[BoldNewLettuce]

Time for a Klim game.

 

[NedPlimpton]

I'm into a high scoring mess of a game so long as the Oilers win.

 

[tardigrade81]

Campbell in net?

Well… we will get the next one I guess.

 

[russ99]

Nuge - Connor usually doesn’t work, especially after the first chances and then Nuge is late getting back.​

​

But Nuge is on a different level now, doesn’t hurt to try it out, figure out the lines before the postseason.​

 

[McTonyBrar]

Campbell starts… so it should be entertaining lol

 

[Puljulainen]

Another shutout incoming.

 

[CantHaveTkachev]

Need 8 goals tonight.

April Fools?

 

[McTonyBrar]

That said, still probably need to score 8 to win.

If we want to go deep playoffs we need our starting goalie to be ready. Not our backup lol

 

[BlackDogg]

Need 8 goals tonight.

At least

 

[NotAVacuumSalesman]

Roasted duck is on the menu. Incoming Leon hatty for another 50 goal season.

 

[Jimmi McJenkins]

Roasted duck is on the menu. Incoming Leon hatty for another 50 goal season.

Hopefully all on the PP, so he can get closer to Tim Kerr's ppg record

Need 8 goals tonight.

Boourns, 30 wins for Skinner guys

I think Desharnais gets his first tonight

 

[BoldNewLettuce]

I also expect a shutout.

 

[29Beast97Mode]

Nice to see McDavid scratched that guy sucks
