Ok so with 3 games to go here is the schedule for Avs Stars and Wild…
Avs: Home against Oilers and Jets, road vs Preds
Wild: road vs Hawks, home vs Jets, road vs Preds
Stars: road vs Wings and Blues, home vs Blues
They all play back to backs. Stars have by far the easiest 3 games and they should win out which will give them 108 points.
If Stars win out Avs would need to get 5 out of the last 6 points to get 109 because Stars have the tie breaker. Im not too worried about the Wild, but Dallas is gonna be tough
Need Makar for sure because he’s the only D-man in the league who can shutdown or at least contain McDavidHopefully we can get a few players back on D for the EDM game or we are toast.

MacDermid won't bite on any dekes since he ain't fast enough to process them.Macdermid’s never had the chance to be fair

The word is he’s small in sizeSo I have not been able to watch this road trip, being on the road myself. However, it seems to me in watching the highlights that Sammy G. has been on the ice for a lot of opposition goals this week. Is my assessment accurate?
Did you know ‘it’s a hockey game and not a concert’?Always a joy to read the Oilers board complaining about how many PPs the Avs get and calling the Avs divers when the Oilers have more PPs than the Avs this year lol.
Therein lies the reason why so many find it so refreshing when they lose. When the Leafs lose you kinda feel bad for the fans. When the Oilers lose it's f***ing amazing.
Makar at his absolute best last year. But Makar has been hurt and leaned on too much this year. And McDavid found another gear. The Oilers are scary good this season.Need Makar for sure because he’s the only D-man in the league who can shutdown or at least contain McDavid
Oilers are a much better team than last year. Ekholm has helped them on D, RNH with 100 point season and McDavid, Draisaitl on another level. However they do rely heavily on their PP like last yearMakar at his absolute best last year. But Makar has been hurt and leaned on too much this year. And McDavid found another gear. The Oilers are scary good this season.
McDavid is even better than last season and Drai is getting healthy.
The rest of the roster is still mediocre but last year they aspired to be mediocre.
No fanbase has acted more entitled in the last 10 years than the Oilers. Its like the league should just give them the cup for getting 1st overall picks. The shitty thing is I like alot of players on the team but the f***in people make me cheer against them All. The. Time.Always a joy to read the Oilers board complaining about how many PPs the Avs get and calling the Avs divers when the Oilers have more PPs than the Avs this year lol.

It was super cringe with mcdavid and his individual goals. I’d drive down to ball to punch Mack if I heard him say that shitNo fanbase has acted more entitled in the last 10 years than the Oilers.

That was a great game to attend. Worst game I've seen Mackinnon play live, but hey, he tied and ended the game in style.What a day ! What a trip to LA, I’m so happy now
Oh boy…Frankly, if everyone is healthy, it probably should be Girard that sits. Johnson & Johnson just works as a shutdownpair. And can't slot Girard in the top-4 either.

Yeah, some bad luck and mistakes on his part have led to some goals against. It’s just weird though. Take the LA game—the Eller line and MacDermid-Hunt pairing gets stuck in the d-zone for what feels like an hour and somehow the puck stays out of the net. Very next shift the top line and top pairing roll out and boom, the Kings score.So I have not been able to watch this road trip, being on the road myself.

But if Bo won’t play he will not be able to get two performance bonuses…Hopefully we can get a few players back on D for the EDM game or we are toast.
Girard played him well hr last time they played.The thought of McDavid rushing into the zone against Girard is nightmare fuel. f***ing Leason just worked him.
