GDT: Game 18 , Edmonton Oilers @ Chicago Blackhawks -6:30PM start

[Bring Back GLR]

I'm the best there is. I piss excellence.

"If you ain't first you're last" Or in Lowes case if you don't draft first you're last.

I also really enjoy this interview with Lowe and MacTavish. Even with such a brief interview, you can immediately see that the organization is permanently doomed as long as they're around. Just complete idiots. I don't know how you could get more delusional.

Center Ice only has the Edmonton feed. Crap.

"I think it's safe to say half the general managers in the league would trade their roster for ours."

 

[Ilrider]

Crawford in net.

That clip was priceless, I definitely applaud their 5 Cups for sure but when the Hawks swept them 4-0 in the 92 Conference Finals that era of Oilers history was closed for good. They need to stop rehashing the old guard that's their problem. Move on already, no wonder Eakins took down all those old pictures in the dressing rooms even he is trying to get on with the future and provide a fresh look.

Kane/Pirri/Saad line is not something I believe can work in playoffs. Simply too poor in their own zone.

You figure Bickell would move up and there would be a little shuffle of players.

 

[BronYrAur]

Hawks are not exactly playing well so far tonight.

 

[BronYrAur]

Ugh. Bickell is terrible.

 

[No Fun Shogun]

Missed the first couple minutes due to paying more attention to Civ V and the Illini game on my iPad.

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

Pirri close but cant bury it

 

[Bring Back GLR]

Ugh. Bickell is terrible.

Playoff Bickell is great.

 

[BronYrAur]

Great shift from the 20/88/37 line there!

You'd think by that time Bickell/Toews/Kane would be back together.

 

[BronYrAur]

Playoff Bickell is great.

Pretty obvious at this point that playoff Bickell is more lucky than anything else.

 

[UsernameWasTaken]

I'm surprised and disappointed we haven't scored yet

 

[IndianHeadSweater]

Ooh, Kane set up Pirri nice.

 

[KyleJRM]

Feels like once the Blackhawks get one, the Oilers pack it in and give up four more.

 

[MadhouseOnMadison]

Kane/Pirri/Saad line is not something I believe can work in playoffs. Simply too poor in their own zone.

Couldn't agree more. They'll get eaten alive in their own zone and get dominated physically in the other end.

Playoff Buff- Great, Playoff Bickell- Great, once the playoffs start and Toews and Kane need some room and open ice, Bicks will move up and the big boy will provide the space they need and score timely goals.

 

[deytookerjaabs]

Loving the Kane double-shift.

 

[MadhouseOnMadison]

Loving the Kane double-shift.

What's the deal with this? Did Kane ask for more ice time? Seems like we're just doubling our chances of an injury.

 

[Thucydides]

Is Habby ever going to get another start? Not that I want him to, but we can't expect Crawford to play every back to back this season can we?

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

WTH ,, That shouldn't have been icing
