GDT: Oilers vs Kings, 8:30pm. Crypto.com Arena

[Canovin]

That would be so Oilers fans to rip a coach for playing a goalie back to back and then praise a different one for doing it.

Different case actually. Smith shit the bed against Vegas and asked to redeem himself against Chicago and shit the bed again. Skinner on the other hand, played awesome yesterday. So if Woody plays him again today, why would any Oilers fans get upset?

I believe Edison invented the light bulb

pfffft. he didn't even do that. I would allow that his company perfected the lightbulb and the first to make it commercially viable.

Would like to see Perlini get a game or two and Yams get the presser….just don’t think Yams is the best we can do on that line.

Dont look for this to happen anytime soon now that Woodcroft is coach. yama is seeing his minutes and usage increased. Its pretty silly he's exclusively in our topsix when he has one goal all year playing with hockey gods. I mean again Yama playing parked with either of the two most prolific players in hockey and he only has one goal in 2022. I mean its incredibly inept.

The Simpsons said he invented it. Matt Groening is a time traveler so I don't know of a more reliable source.

Kings are wearing their whites and chrome helmets again tonight..

 

[ZJuice]

Its almost as bad as when Phoenix had Jobbing.com arena.

I remember playing NHL video games as a kid and getting to play in the Gaylord Entertainment Center* in Nashville (99 to 07)

How about the KFC Yum! Center - home of Lousville Basketball

No, LA requested the Oilers wear their home jerseys so they could wear their whites which they pair with their chrome dome helmets. The Oilers then requested the Sharks wear their road whites so the Oilers didn’t have to bring 2 full sets of jerseys on a 2 game back to back road trip which would have been a major pain in the ass for the equipment staff.

oilers shoulda refused LA, that can f*** off with those helmets

 

[Mr Positive]

I thought that was odd that the Oilers had their home jerseys last night.

It'd be all based on the end result.

If the Oilers win, he's a genius for starting him again, playing the hot hand.

If they lose and get shelled, he'd be a moron.

Agreed. I think it’s time to move on from this player. Looking at his stats alone he’s neck and neck with such offensive stalwarts as Keith and Kassian. This despite playing with one of our all stars all year long. Having said that he’ll likely score tonight.

LA fan here... there's going to be a ceremony for Doughty's 1000th game so puck drop will be delayed.

ughhh. the game is already a 9:30 start time for me, now it won't start till closer to 10pm? that sucks so bad.

Couldn't they start the ceremony early. Already the latest possible start in the NHL and they want to delay it.

Most kings home games start at 7:30 pm local time cos of traffic. Traffic has gotten worse here over the years so I don't see that changing.

Ugh thanks for the heads up. Big milestone though wow good for him.

Stauffer says an NHL scout told him last night that we have the best goalie coming out of the AHL right now in Skinner

Light work, as well. Skinner only faced 20 shots yesterday and 33% of those were in the first 5 minutes.

Oilers get 3 goals in the first period, kings come close but Oilers get a couple more and an empty net. 6-4 oil

 

[Jumptheshark]

Team has go to beat teams like LA to get into the playoffs. These are playoff games to get into the playoffs.

yep. we can not even afford to give up a loser point to teams like this

 

[xoczar99ox]

We started winning when she showed up. Not superstitious just stating well known facts.

No, not superstitious at all…
