Pre-Game Talk: Game 33: Edmonton @ Montreal, Wed. March 24

[MarkovsKnee]

So last night's game won't be played tonight, but it sounds like tomorrow night's will be played.



Only one of KK & Armia tested positive.

Frolik is off taxi squad & is on roster, but Dauphin is not.

Since it's the winger & not the center, pure speculation here, but I would guess, Armia tested positive & KK did not, but they are being cautious. Hopefully, this means Kotkaniemi can play.

We'll know more later today when the test results from this morning come in.

I'm sure they'll announce new dates for the PPD game too (Game# 32).

I wish they would do double headers like in baseball

So is this still Wednesday’s game, or mondays game now on a Wednesday?

Would be funny and hard to watch. What if they just played one game and double the results? Up the stakes lol

As long was we tune in to Marinaro’s show at 10 AM. The rest is just decoration around his shameless self promo. Nicely played, Tony.

Exact question that resulted in Hal 9000 going on a homicidal rampage.

I think you are right. Armia was on the list first aswell.

The Finnish Flu or the Suomi Sniffles.

as if games weren't sluggish enough lately

the boys look like they have no energy, every game

Don't know if the typo was voluntary (23 march, which is today), but Habs-Oilers isn't going to happen tonight:

There won't be Habs hockey anytime soon IMO.

 

[Miller Time]

Don't know if the typo was voluntary (23 march, which is today), but Habs-Oilers isn't going to happen tonight:

I wonder if they Would do 3 straight games? Wed-Thu-Fri?

Leafs Oilers Sat then would have to push to Sun...

Seems like the only easy way to make it up unless they add it on to end of season

Yeah just typo on date. Fixed it.

1pm then 8pm? That would be crazy! You do it in kid's hockey.

The Viking Virus

...or for all the conspiracy theorist out there:

The Berserker Bio-weapon


...good thing I don't believe in Hell...still might end up there, though...

 

[Habs]

nice break for the boys with this schedule.

Plot twist: Habs found a way to generate false positive Covid test results, so they can buy time for Toffoli to draw back in.

That's the theory over on the Oilers boards...

I'm certainly not lobbying for it, but that would determine which TEAM has depth the endurance and stamina.

The NHL thought it was a good idea to do 3 on 3 to decide the outcome of a game where it essentially made it an individual game of whom has the most offensive skilled talent.

Kids do it all the time in tourneys! Pffff....wimps, those pros...

 

[Habs]

The next game can only be cancelled if McJesus and the Leafs determine its ok. If one more game is cancelled the Leafs will receive 2 more pts ( to be determined by the NHL and CBC) , and the Oilers will get another #1 overall pick as compensation, plus 1 point. The Habs will have 3 points deducted from their total and have to send Caufield to Edmonton as compensation for McLegends pain and suffering.

Brad Marchand will receive a 5 minute major and a 2 game suspension, just because.

We lose.


Jk we win...?
