Pre-Game Talk: Oilers vs Wild

[elmeroil]

No GDT yet, come on it's 11:10 Eastern time that is. Ya'll must still be sleeping. Big night for Pickard, if he plays well I could see him earning back to back starts. Wonder if Nuge is good to go yet.

Edit: Forgot they play tomorrow too, definitely no back to back starts this time

They should win, come out and play hard (show MAF this is where he might want to be)

What does Minnesota need to gain some momentum for their push for the wildcard? Why, a game against the Oilers, of course.

Campbell and Broberg for MAF, wonder if the money would work?

Probably the fact that the Oilers are 20-24-3-4 versus the Wild at home all-time (and even worse when you include the road record against them) has something to do with it.

I strongly dislike this team and the style of play the games typically are. I hope we beat the wheels off them tonight. It would be good for my soul.

The money would work. Fleury's cap hit is 3.5. Our dead cap space on Campbell is 3.85.

That Minnesota blue line is brutal

Ok then Holland, let's get it done! Why wouldn't the Wild want JC for 3 years

Big back to back games against non playoff teams... really need at least 3 out of 4 points here to close that gap with Vancouver and overtake the cheating Knights

Finding 2 points here would really make the Knights sweat, might have another guy on LTIR because of excess perspiration.

I don't know that the Oilers do that or that Minny does, as they are still carrying alot of dead cap.

Yeah I don't see it happening either but a legit Cup winning goalie would be pretty sweet for the run.

What you've never heard of Dakota Mermis and Declan Chisholm???

Time for Minny to play their game 7

I mean I still MAF as option for this team, it will just require a 2nd team to eat cap, which shouldn't be too hard, imo. MAF for a 3rd (initial trade) and a 4th (broker trade)

I don't think Minny really goes out of their way to tryhard against us. It's just that every time we play they score 5 goals on 2 scoring chances.

Against Edmonton they turn into Vancouver.

Return of the Nuge, woots.

I gotta feeling Brown is scoring tonight.
