GDT: Game #21 Oilers host Penguins 8pm MT

[Ginger Papa]

Are we vain?
Edmonton, where the two best players play
And cause other Teams so much pain
Hockey gods may playoff luck this year change

Change

Same old shit
Other fanbases whine with a pouty lip,
Roster has many problems, you can take your pick
Hope by trade deadline these will change (Change)

Oil are what they are
Fans know what they know
We’ve been let down thinking that we were close

Oil are what they are
Fans know what they know
But we’ll never give up on this Team never, no

We can't change
Guess you could blame it on our McDrai brain
We should know better but you know
We know, We know
We ain't ever gonna change

Got no shame
Spent all my money on merch soon after I got paid
I should know better but you know
I know, I know
I ain't ever gonna change

Watch the guys
Pre-game skate warmup on ice arrive
Sounds of blades and shots make me feel alive
And I don't really wanna change (Change)

I am what I am, I know what I know
We’ve loved this Team through thru the cons & the pros

I am what I am, I know what I know
But we’ll never give up on this Team never, no

We can't change
Guess you could blame it on our old Bouchard brain
We should know better but you know
We know, We know
We ain't ever gonna change

Feel no shame
That Nurse instead of Barrie got paid
Overall we’re better but you know
I know, I know
Our Team’s still gonna change

Change

Am what I am, Know what I know
GM Holland is getting us close

Am what I am, Know what I know
Skinner’s the man, back up is Kosko

I am what I am, I know what I know
The Bison is back, to trample your home

I am what I am, Know what I know
Broberg’s potential is now being shown

Am what I am, Know what I know
Kris Russell’s blocks 2,000 or so

Am what I am
Know what I know
Look at this Team and the place’s they’ll go

I can't change
Guess you could blame it on my McDrai brain
I should know better but you know
I know, I know
I ain't ever gonna change (yeah)

Well, I got no shame
Spent all my money on merch soon after I got paid
I should know better but you know
I know, I know
I ain't ever gonna change

Going to need a big game from McDrai with Nurse, Keith and Ceci all out. Team might need to outscored its defensive woes.

Sorry...

McDavid usually puts on a show when Crosby is in the building. Should be a good one

Edmonton is 1-8 in games against Crosby... hoping McDavid plays a solid defensive game above all. This defence won't cover for mistakes.

 

[Jimmi McJenkins]

This one will be interesting. It's winnable, but it will be tough.

Cool stat. I love stats. Especially when nobody asked. It's like a magical present. Thanks.

I was at game in 2018 when Crosby scored the beauty in OT . I was even in the corner where he scored. I had my Oilers jersey on and I even had to clap because it was so nice. Fella looked at me kinda pissed. I said hey pal , Syd is from home and that was a beauty

 

[Dakkon]

It’s going to a tough one without 3 starting D’s but I believe that McDrai are going to have a big game tonight pushing the Oilers to victory!

It doesn't take a pig 47 games to be thrown off a balcony?

 

[tardigrade81]

Ladies, gents and any others identifying as something else…. It’s game day my friends. Feels like forever since Oilers hockey. Let’s go!!

Wait…… Kass is on the first line

what in the….

Yeah, there is one extremely obvious flaw in the meme I made. He doesn't heat up often. Oh well.

 

[CornKicker]

koskinen or skinny?

 

[KeithIsActuallyBad]

Maybe the Pens will actually try today.

 

[Oilslick941611]

Just looking for a good effort tonight. That D is scary.

 

[Mez]

A win would be a bonus tonight...just hoping the forwards and goalie can play hard for their virgin D-core.

Yup, ya have to appreciate and applaud hockey greatness no matter what jersey it’s wearing (well, maybe except if it’s in a red jersey from Hooterville down the QE2, but then again they’ve never had anyone of that ilk in their organization to make this a concern). Go Oil.
Ps- going to check out more of that band from the OP. I’m a total classic rock guy, I never get too far out of my lane. I did like this song. Thanks @Ginger Papa !

That top line worries me. Usually the top line has had RNH, Puljujarvi or Draisaitl working the center duties. Now it has no-one, which has usually been a recipe for disaster defensively.

[Czechboy]

Not expecting a win but I would definitely take one!

Kass on line 1 is just upsetting.

Good luck to Niem. Hope Bro can build on the last game.

I kind of like all the injuries.. gives us a great chance to see what kind of depth we have. We already have a big points advantage and a relaxed schedule. perfect storm

 

[PositiveCashFlow]

Is Ceci in? I thought he had the virus

 

[CornKicker]

im not as worried about the D, they are highly skilled and still playing excited. Long term it will be a huge problem with Ceci/Nurse/Keith out, but Bouchard is old enough to carry everyone for a few games.
