Pre-Game Talk: Oilers @ Rangers 7:00 PM, 12/15

[Revel]

The other night, Hall & Drai made us look slow and exposed our Defense.

But hey, the main progenitor of our bad D will have the night off, and we have a Hartford "Call-Up" announcement to look forward to (please don't be Summers...that would be boring).

G was on the ice for so many goals over the last 2 games, that having him sit could turn our fortunes around.

Time to end the Oilers' 5 game winning streak.

Play defense

 

[aufheben]

Maybe don't get embarrassed by a team that couldn't make the playoffs if they were the only team in the NHL.

 

[Irishguy42]

Lets not leave Taylor Hall, or anyone really, open in the crease all the time. We lost because we left one man open right in front of the crease.

Otherwise, we should win this.

 

[Ail]

Should be a delight.

 

[Cassano]

Unfortunate that Talbot likely won't start.

 

[Megustaelhockey]

Unfortunate that Talbot likely won't start.

Play the Ghostbusters theme for him in the building one last time.

They scored 5 goals on the other guy, they have big problems if they need 6+ goals to win games.

 

[Draft Guru]

Talbot just had an unreal game to steal 2 points from Boston.

Glad we'll see Nilsson again

 

[Carl Swaglin]

Hoping for graves to play as the Callup.

“@Bob_Stauffer: Talbot stellar, 47 saves, Oilers win 6th straight game and head to NY for 2nd half of back-to-back vs Rangers tomorrow. Oilers 9-5-1 vs East”

 

[Glen Sathers Cigar]

Oilers will be in 2nd night if B2B. Rangers need to come out flying and jump out to an early lead. Really need to get all over them.

 

[ZiGOODejad]

This Stanley cup contending team needs to show the oilers why we are contenders

 

[Revel]

Make that 6 wins in a row for the Oilers. Who needs McDavid...

Nothing from Drai & Hall tonight, but Eberle in on all 3 goals. Must be nice having a 2nd line RW that can do stuff.

 

[Nash Money]

Disappointed for Cam that he didn't get to play either against us, especially in this building when it was the 2nd of a back to back. Mini tribute?

Let's get back on track with this one.

 

[Amazing Kreiderman]

Unfortunate that Talbot likely won't start.

They want their best goalie to play against the Rangers.

 

[anofsti]

I'm glad Talbot isn't in net, because I like him, but I want the Rangers to demolish the Oilers... Maybe if they route Nilsson by scoring 5 in the first, and give Talbot a 40 SOG shutout loss

That would require the Rangers to put up 45+ shots. I have a better chance of getting run over by my own vehicle on the way to work this morning.

 

[OrbitalDynamics]

Tired Rangers squad still licking their wounds after the "How the west was lost" road trip and the Oil,fresh off a thrilling OT win against Bruins?

I see no way this could end badly for the Rangers.

@Real_ESPNLeBrun: Expect Brady Skjei to be Rangers callup once Stoll either clears waivers or gets claimed today. Skei leads d-men in AHL Hartford in points

**** YES. So excited to see what he can do.

 

[InwoodBlueNYC]

Players come and go. Some are here for a long time, others for just a short while. Some have an impact, some are a misty memory.
That being said, while Talbot was an important reason for our success last season, he does not warrant any tribute, any mention on the scoreboard, nothing. He is just another former NY Ranger.
Thank you Cam, I wish you all the best.

Career backups don't get tributes.

Career backups don't get tributes.

Precisely

GDT is up.
