Looking forward to watching this game tomorrow and seeing how Koskinen does.

CHIASSON LOOKS LIKE MATT HENDRICKS.

I just wanted to share.

Nice to see Talbot get some rest and as alluded too Nashville has our number so I like it.

We’re going to break the spell even though it’s an early one.

 

[Jumptheshark]

I will go ahead and predict in true Oilers fashion, Koskinen will have 39 saves and then Chiarelli will sign him 24 hours later to a 4 x $4m contract

the bashing CHia Pet thread is that away

It is an all around good decision to start koskinen. He needs to get some games, and Nashville has edmonton's number anyways. It would be sweet to get a couple games above 500 and give some confidence to the team. It is amazing how much confidence can change a hockey club.

Hoping Puju is still sitting.

Winning this game would be huge especially with a game in Chicago the following night.

 

[Oilers in NS]

I think the game against Nashville on Tuesday was a lot closer than the score indicated. This team can play with Nashville...I am expecting a very close game tomorrow.
The key will be Koskinen.

I was at that game and we had a couple of chances early. Strome was alone in front and couldn't bury it. Short handed goal kinda killed us . Nsh can really skate you into the ice. Im happy with the team play of late. I predict Strome scores

Hoping Puju is still sitting.

Given that McLellan (and most coaches) almost never change a lineup after a win, I'd be very surprised to see Puljujarvi back in the lineup today.

 

[KeithIsActuallyBad]

If Nashville starts Rinne I think we have a chance.

If it's Saros... Nope.

 

[McSpecial DraiBlend]

He is really turned it back around. I'd like a little quicker puck movement. That's about the only complaint I have.

Klefbom is elite and If you think otherwise you are wrong
