GDT: XXII |Insert Pithy Remark Here| Oilers @ Coyotes | 7:00 PM | SNOIL

[TameYew]

For November, the Oilers are at 11 out of a possible 24 points. They simply have the win the next 3 games to keep their place in the division.

 

[Mc5RingsAndABeer]

I think we lose this one and win the next 2

 

[Psychoil]

I think we smash the bum coyotes tonight. Hate them and their stupid team.

 

[Mc5RingsAndABeer]

Keep the streaks alive!! Who lays out who this game?

Anyone on Domi please

 

[TameYew]

Domi got a hat trick against us last year. We are going to have to contain his enthusiasm this time around.

 

[McGlassbangers]

Go big or go home. 9-0 W, Caggiula with a hatty.

 

[CupofOil]

Gustavsson should start tonight. Talbot needs to get some rest during this "easier" stretch of games.

 

[Kepler 186f]

Does Pouliot ever draw back in? Hendricks isn't doing much of anything, and Pouliot can penalty kill and be an option on the PP.

Penalty kill or penalty take?

 

[Senor Catface]

I didn't realize the franchise had been in Arizona longer now by a few years than it ever was in Winnpeg.

20 years in Arizona.
17 in Winnpeg.

 

[DipsyMcDoodles]

The Coyotes are 19-0-4 against us in the last 23 games...WTF? Time to change that

 

[KeithIsActuallyBad]

Watch Mike Smith stone us again after being a pile of puke against Vancovuer...

The Oilers were real bad for a long, long time.

 

[Kepler 186f]

[oobga]

The Oilers were real bad for a long, long time.

The Coyotes have been plenty bad at points over those 23 games too. They just knew exactly how to play us. Defensive break downs and weak backchecking were guaranteed against the Oilers. All you needed was some patience and to wait for our team of fancy boys to get impatient.

 

[Jimmi McJenkins]

Does Pouliot ever draw back in? Hendricks isn't doing much of anything, and Pouliot can penalty kill and be an option on the PP.

Letestu would be better then both, if you want to make a change.

 

[Smartguy]

Based on lineups this should be an easy 2 points. That Arizona roster is pretty bad. There's maybe only 4 or 5 guys that could crack the Oilers roster

Everytime we line up against a team we should beat we seem to have trouble with, if they go in like they are approaching a tough team hopefully they can beat them, not once but twice this weekend

 

[Renly Baratheon]

There's going to be a LOT of Oilers fans there. Here's hoping they have something to cheer for. After watching the Yotes own us for years I want a blowout.

You could say this about almost every single Western Conference team.

How long did Calgary, Nashville, Minnesota, Arizona, Dallas, Anaheim beat us repeatedly.

Actually come to think of it any team really. We just won for the first time in forever in Detroit and NYI this season.

 

[Blitzago*]

Nurse creams OEL.

And then domi tries to act tough and jumps nurse, nurse turns around and just 1 punches him

 

[Nunymare]

Watch Mike Smith stone us again after being a pile of puke against Vancovuer...

That sure hasn't happened before

No, you really can't.

It's one of the longest streaks (might be longest) ever for any team in the NHL. It's ludicrous. And if it was the Hawks, Kings, or Sharks, it would still suck, but you could at least somewhat understand it. But this is the freaking Coyotes. Almost 6 years (Jan 2011) since our last regulation win against them. That's disgusting.

11-0 with McDavid breaking Sittler's record would almost make up for it.

Lines at Arizona:
Lucic-McDavid-Puljujarvi,
Maroon-RNH-Eberle,
Pouliot-Draisaitl-Caggiula,
Kassian-Letestu-Pitlick.

Nailed it! Pouliot sucks and as long as the Oilers keep winning, he should not be in the lineup.

The commentators were talking about the role Hendricks plays with some of the younger guys in a leadership role that we don't see on the ice. That is a lot more valuable than Pouliot.

 

[backhandsauce]

have to wonder if they are trying to showcase Poo. 2 good games against the Yote's and maybe he is gone?
