"Our PP was big" - Zack Kassian 2021

I don't like Barrie's play so far but please don't scratch him for Kussell.

No way Barrie or Yama get scratched esp for guys like Sceviour and Russell.

Overreaction by this fanbase.

Koekkoek- Barrie is a fine pairing and Yama would look good with Shore and Sceviour/Benson

Not yet that is. It’s three games in. If this continues for 10-15 games maybe.

"Our PP was big" - Zack Kassian 2021

His last comment was the most important for me. " We held each other accountable" when speaking to 2nd intermission locker room discussions.
3rd had the two struggling players demoted

If Yama struggles vs ARI he may get 'rested' due to back to back games vs Vegas

Barrie has a much bigger rope and he won't get scratched. After Nurse he is the safest from getting scratched on D.

Now that’s…wait for it…swagger!

 

[5 Mins 4 Ftg]

wow, is MacLeod and Turris that bad?
But agreed that Scevioir should slide in.
Is he bot playing because of late contract?

McLoed was sent to Bakersfield yesterday. Sceviour was a healthy scratch yesterday. Turris has been meh to ok but you have to keep a guy like Sceviour warmed up plus if your sitting Yamo you need another guy on the PK and that would be Sceviour.

 

[5 Mins 4 Ftg]

This should be a 6/7-1 slaughter

So we'll either lose or win 3-2 lol

Not if your doing the GDT, your on a roll!!!!

Ladies and Gentlemen....Your 2021-22 Arizona Coyotes!!!

No, not the actual coyote. The stuff coming out of the coyotes arse.

Every interview with koskinen the big thing I hear is how he just wants to have fun, and how he plays well when he’s having fun. If koskinen is starting in Arizona I nominate “koskifun in the desert” as the GDT title

 

[5 Mins 4 Ftg]

Are we swapping Yamamoto for him? What's the rumour mill churning up about Crouse?

Stauffer is hard on the Crouse train. Was saying McLoed for Crouse, just his own opinion.

Good point. I think you are right. Barrie also is on the first power play. They practice so much with that unit that switching him out there and pulling him out of the line up doesn’t make sense. Just reducing minutes makes sense.

 

[LTIR]

Foegele-RNH-Kassian would be a very good 2B line /elite 3rd line

Shore-Ryan-Yama would be an elite 4th line

Do NOT break up the 3rd line....

 

[McSpecial DraiBlend]

Bob?

This is a good opportunity to view future Oilers forward Lawson Crouse

In all seriousness I would make this trade bo problem.

 

[Oilers in NS]

He's got his heart condition, so he's probably done, like Stalock.

Shitty

 

[dem]

Is that Jim Matheson asking the same "likability factor" question to every single person yesterday?

Whoever it was.. that was painful.

 

[Captain Fantastic]

Year in and year out, Arizona and Minnesota are the two of my least interesting opponents to watch vs the Oil.

Imagine Nick Zero Points Schmaltz as your comparable against Connor McDavid when you are the Arizona Death-ert Dogs.

Zero excuse not to beat the Dogs tomorrow night. A team that might be one of the worst ever put on ice.

This is great, my friend. Gave me a much needed laugh in the middle of the day. Hopefully you turn this into the GDT.

Good thing we have four days off after Friday’s game.

So do we play Koskinen in both games for the back to back or does Skinner play against Arizona? If we think there is even a small chance Skinner might be on the team next season it wouldn’t hurt to get him in some games against weaker opponents.

 

[GingerJesus28]

Plus no rookie 3rd stringer waiting in the wings to make their NHL debut in net against us right?

That's been this team's true kryptonite for decades

Uhhhh their backup is currently a guy with 1 NHL game under his belt where he lost to Buffalo lol

Edit: 2 appearances, 1.53 GAA with a 0.956 save % lol

I assume he's starting tomorrow

 

[Snipes45]

I would play Kosko in both. He is very rested.

 

[GingerJesus28]

If Koskinen starts vs the Flyers, that could be a 7-6 game lol

 

[VainGretzky]

Like Tippett is going to break up a line where each player is averaging 2 PPG and over is not going to happen or should he, when some teams this season will be averaging 2.5 GPG
