[Jumptheshark]

Last night the oiler finally got another win and now they try to drag themselves away from the beaches in Ft Lauderdale and head across the state to get ready for tomorrow's against the lightening.


The great saviour of the oilers Omark has been recalled

here are some highlights of Omark




Some history of Tampa









I imagine it will be a 24 hours on this board while we spin around ourselves trying to figure out the Omark recall

We just need to spin-o-rama ourselves into a winning streak.

 

[Ragss]

They'll put Yak and Omark with Gordon, who will play with the D as though its a 5 on 3 and Yak and Omark will not come any closer to their own net than the red line. It will be glorious.

 

[czar99]

Like someone said in the Omark thread. It would be priceless to see everyone just doing spin-o-ramas in the pre game skate. And then have Omark taking guys aside and giving tips.

 

[Dorian2]

I put my bag back on a week ago.

Should've never taken it off.

Who's making the gdt? We should have a spin-o-rama themed GDT, where you can only see the backs of the heads of the Oilers players, and all the Tampa players look angry.

 

[GretzkytoKurri9917]

The bags are still on.

The Oilers just beat an awful team in Florida.


Watch them get destroyed against Tampa.

We couldnt keep the puck out of the net vs a limp dong Pathers squad. Stamkos is going to light us up.

To the OP, I thought Omark was playing in for Yak. He was practicing with the scratches today so I assume he gets PB duty tomorrow.

It's fitting Omark is coming back against the lightning. Prepare yourselves.

It's fitting Omark is coming back against the lightning. Prepare yourselves.

... for no defensive accountability and few chances created by anyone on Omarks line as he loses it in the neutral zone 90% of the time.

Also, if anyone is expecting retaliation for a spin-move two years ago, don't hold your breath.

If the game goes to a shootout, eakins better let him shoot !!

 

[Distinct]

We were supposed to take our bags off?

 

[The Nuge]

This. It's on til we make the playoffs

 

[Jepprey]

I only put my bag on after the loss to the Maple Leafs. It won;t go off until we make the playoffs.

 

[Starbuds]

Always keep bags on, gents. Would hate to see one of you get an 18 year hangover.

 

[PositiveCashFlow]

I don't really care now if we win... all I want to see is for us to try to play well

 

[Aerchon]

I want to add to this.

The Oiler just barely beat an AHL team in Florida and looked like an AHL team while doing it.

Tampa is a weak team sometimes as well but from everything i've seen this year they still qualify as a bad NHL team which will mop the floor with us the way we are playing.

Anyone want to take a stab at the lines for tonight?

Hemsky RNH Eberle
Jones Gordon Arcobello
Omark Gagner Yakupov
Eager Acton Gazdic

 

[thadd]

Omark-Hopkins-Eberle?

If Omark is playing with anyone else he's gonna get scored on a LOT.

Cannot put him with Yakupov.

Omark-Hopkins-Eberle
Jones-Acrobello---

No... I'm sick of line combinations.

I'll be here.

Watching.....

Waiting... for the 5 goal lead.

 

[s7ark]

No one is scheduled to make a GDT for today. Anyone want to take a stab at it?

With Pete peters in net

 

[Calgary McOilers]

Bag on. Prepared for the worse until Hall is 100% healthy.

 

[Jumptheshark]

I would have put a Giant Panda bear in net-- but some might think it too cruel to put something so cute in the oiler net only to be shot at 40 times a games

 

[Rin]

Who's making the gdt? We should have a spin-o-rama themed GDT, where you can only see the backs of the heads of the Oilers players, and all the Tampa players look angry.

I'm looking into this - it's kind of tricky though getting good pics. If I can get good, heck even decent pics, of all Oilers from behind before someone else makes a GDT I will put this into action for you.

 

[GMofOilers]

Good luck Rin and thanks
