McDavid
Bennett
Monahan

oh my

That's seriously messed up. Even if they keep ignoring the blueline.

 

[Capslock17]

This is going to be a really strange question, but do you think Tom Sestito will draw into the lineup opening night?

 

[Reign Nateo]

Wouldn't underestimate them. That top line is real ugly, but the bottom 3 are not half bad. Their second line is better than ours will be, and the transition on that third line should not be overlooked. Nor should Backlund be underrated.

This is going to be a tough game for us. Sedins usually light Calgary up, so hopefully that can continue. But I don't think, outside of our top line, we're that far ahead of Calgary with our forwards as other people think.

Yup. Looks like a terrible roster, but they will work their ***** off at all times. They will be a handful and there will continue to be no easy nights in the West.

Probably

*sigh*

Unless one of our forwards gets injured between now and the start of the game, the correct answer is "good god no".

 

[DCantheDDad]

Probably

*sigh*

If torts was still around we'd see him on the first line.

 

[MrShift4]

If torts was still around

*shudders*

 

[PhilMick]

If torts was still around we'd see him on the first line.

And he'd fight McGrattan for the 100th time.

No one's buying it you guys, just kiss already.

I really hope not.

 

[The Stig]

I don't think the Canucks are in any position to be making fun of another team's lineup.

You honestly think our lineup is THAT bad?

 

[BeardyCanuck03]

Unless one of our forwards gets injured between now and the start of the game, the correct answer is "good god no".

Agreed. Wilie isn't going to dress Sestito until he's forced to.

 

[IntangiBo]

I don't think the Canucks are in any position to be making fun of another team's lineup.

I don't think the Canucks are, do you?

 

[Eddy Punch Clock]

meh. Oilers part deux.

 

[Capslock17]

And he'd fight McGrattan for the 100th time.

My fantasy league awards prizes for dumb things, kind of like a scavenger hunt on the side. One of the items is first team to have two players fight eachother.

I drafted Sestito and McGrattan for that sole purpose

By the way, I know it's realllly early, but as a Sabres fan, what are your thoughts on Miller? I'd love to see him raise the cup for you guys. Unless the Sabres make it to the SCF this year :cries:

Vezina and Hart likely. Jennings for sure.Lindsay if Vezina. Maybe even Art Ross.

I've liked how he's played.

 

[BeardyCanuck03]

meh. Oilers part deux.

Monahan and Bennett are both going to be better than any of the Oilers at defense.

 

[SopelFan*]

Sooooo we still have 24 guys?

Haven't really seen enough of him to make a decision but he's been adequate so far. Looks like he's still getting comfortable with the team.

 

[alicia]

So any news on the witch's predictions?

 

[canuck4life16]

I hate it when the doubters think the lineup because it don't look "great" any team can win the cup and we will

 

[BobbyJazzLegs]

meh. Oilers part deux.

I think Flames are a much better organization overall. Looking at them more warily long term.

 

[BobbyJazzLegs]

Vezina and Hart likely. Jennings for sure.Lindsay if Vezina. Maybe even Art Ross.

Conn Smythe

 

[IntangiBo]

Conn Smythe

Ah right, we trade him at the deadline.

 

[BobbyJazzLegs]

Ah right, we trade him at the deadline.

@RogMillions: Gaudreau Colborne Byron, Glencross Monahan Hudler, Bouma Backlund Raymond, Bollig Stajan McGrattan

This like a Doctor Seuss riddle? What is this?
