[Mr. Canucklehead]

Thanks for starting this one, Vector - I thought maybe someone else should do it after the disastrous first result.

Superstition is alive and well!

Hoping for a better result this time. Lol.
Also hoping to see one or two of the fringe guys to start separating themselves from the pack. Depending on who is in the lineup, I’m going to be watching McWard, Hoglander and PDG closely. Joshua, based on yesterdays groupings may be sitting out but he’s another guy along with Hirose who I want to see step up. Podzolkin I think needs more time in the AHL.
Realistically there’s not a lot of spots open if Mikheyev is good to go and there are no other injuries.

Really excited to see the Oilers young guys. Gagner, Hall, Eberle, Paajarvi and now RNH? That team will be contending for cups in a few years!

Seriously...want to see more from Hoglander and Podz this game. This franchise needs one of those guys to step up this year.

Likewise, hoping Hirose and/or McWard continue showing well. Would be a tremendous boost to see one of those guys somehow evolve into a top 4D.

Predicting the Oilers play their whole NHL team and the Canucks play about 25% (no one from the top 6 or top 4). We lose 9-1 and we take pride in scoring a goal and only letting 9 in.

 

[Just A Bit Outside]

Think TBD lineup wins.

 

[sting101]

Oilers TBD is much better than our TBD .......8-0 Oil

The excitiement with camp lies in the young guns....McWard Hirose Hoglander Raty Bains and Podkolzin my eyes are on ya..

Although i will say i am excited to see some new faces and Boeser as well as we get closer to opening day....first impressions on Suter was meh but you can tell he has poise.

 

[arttk]

All the TBD shows how unserious this team is with planning. Fail

 

[Vector]

 

[Bgav]

LOL another incoming crushing

 

[Nucker101]

Oh no..

 

[Deeds26]

 

[MS]

Edmonton's entire top-6 and their 1G against what will likely be another Abbotsford lineup. This will be another blowout.

 

[Jay26]

Here we go!

 

[Grantham]

Send in the re-inforcements for petes sake, they are just kids!

 

[Vector]

Canucks also play tomorrow in Seattle at 7pm so will be interesting to see how the roster is split.

There was supposed to be a 10am practice for those that weren’t traveling but nothing’s been reported on it.

 

[Pastor Of Muppetz]

Oilers lineup looks like their opening night roster..I doubt we're icing ours.

I dont care if we win/lose..I just want to see some kind of identity/effort/system in the game.

Apparently, Brandon Sutter had a good showing in his Oilers debut..Good for him overcoming the long covid, and getting back to normal.

 

[DCantheDDad]

I'm so excited. Taking my boy to his first ever NHL game tonight to see the Nucks and Oilers. It should be a lifelong memory!

 

[VanillaCoke]

On a related note playnows preseason hockey bets are back

 

[Vector]

Pettersson not playing.

 

[TruGr1t]

I expect the Oilers to be on a post-Vegas series revenge tour all year and generally drop-kick most of the league in the regular season, so assume this will be the beginning of multiple beatings at their hands.

 

[Kryten]

On a related note playnows preseason hockey bets are back

Thanks for the heads up

 

[Pip]

Any word on the Canucks roster yet? Would be disappointing to see them frees another nothing roster

 

[DS7]

Let's see more of the regulars in this game
Build up that chemistry and momentum heading into the reg season.

 

[wonton15]

I’ve waited multiple months for hockey only to be welcomed by multiple double digit losses

Experience Canucks Hockey

And you know Sutter is scoring tonight
