[Rusoilers]

I am so excited for this team. Usually by this point we would all be over it and getting on with our lives til next season. But yesterday has me pumped up! Go oilers go!

Any indication on Ennis?

 

[Took a pill in Sbisa]

Very interested to see how they use AA and Green.

Big two games this week, although very late for us easterners...

Let's go Oilers.

Great news! I was wondering if would be just Green available for tomorrow. Hopefully Ennis can make it in then too. I would imagine they wouldn't send down Benson yet unless they suspected Ennis would be available tomorrow

AA - McDavid - Chiasson
RNH - Drai - Yams
Ennis - Sheahan - Archibald
Khaira - Haas - PRussell

Nurse - Bear
Jones - Larsson
Benning - Green

Koskinen (Smith against Vegas)

Edit: Forgot Larsson, assume he draws in over Lagesson and they bump Green to third pair and PP1

Khaira - Haas - PRussell

Nurse - Bear

Lagesson - Benning

Koskinen (Smith against Vegas)

That third line will be huge for us down the stretch.

 

[BlackDogg]

Any indication on Ennis?

Haven't heard yet - I guess it was the latest trade of the day, so hopefully he can get his shit packed up too.

 

[48g90a138pts]

Who are the 5 top prospects in this year's draft?

I have no f***ing idea and haven't looked even once this season. This feels great.

 

[Bones2079]

That third line looks f***ing amazing

AA - McDavid - Chiasson

Ennis - Sheahan - Archibald
Khaira - Haas - PRussell

Benning - Green

Holy shit we look stacked hahaha goddamn

 

[oobga]

Ducks downgraded a lot today.

I wish that meant our odds of winning improved.

I'm just gonna keep being negative until we clinch a spot, don't mind me

 

[Oilhawks]

Holy shit we look stacked hahaha goddamn

Will look even better with Kassian, Klefbom and Nygard back.

AA - McDavid - Kassian (Killer speed!)
RNH - Drai - Yams (Cycle chaos!)
Ennis - Sheahan - Archibald (Gritty offense and great defense!)
Nygard - Haas - Chiasson (Mix of speed and utility!)

Extras as Khaira and PRussell (Decent extras for a heavier game!)

Nurse - Bear
Klefbom - Larsson / Green
Jones - Green / Larsson

(Puck mover or carrier on each pairing!)

Edit: When Neal is back see who works best on PP and line 4, try to trade Chiasson or Neal in the offseason (Chiasson would be the easier sell due to cap IMO)

 

[Spawn]

Any indication on Ennis?

I believe with Benson being sent down, we'd only have 11 forwards if Ennis wasn't available for the game. I suppose we could always run 7 D. But you'd think before they sent Benson down they'd be sure that Ennis would be available.

 

[ToeMcDrag83]

Excited. Hopefully the new guys acclimate quickly.
Now go get the playoff spot boys.

 

[780il]

Haven’t been this excited for an Oilers game since we last made the playoffs...

 

[TopShelfGloveSide]

Holy shit we look stacked hahaha goddamn

Imagine with Kassian, Nygard, Neal and Klef back.

 

[McShogun99]

That third line will be huge for us down the stretch.

I was hoping that we could have added Thornton for the 3rd line.

 

[5 Mins 4 Ftg]

Ducks will come out snorting. Oilers need to have their game faces on and whoever is playing net can’t shit the bed. The new boys better understand this is a working mans team. Your not paid to watch Connor and Leon. But I believe Tip will address this well in advance.

 

[Cloned]

Haven't heard yet - I guess it was the latest trade of the day, so hopefully he can get his shit packed up too.

Is that you Mike?

Tony Brar said all three would be there for the pregame skate tomorrow.

That is exactly what I'd like to see.

30 years ago...

Let's do it again in 2020!!!

 

[TennisBalls]

I absolutely cannot wait for these next two games.

 

[BlueCheeseWithWings]

I did not realise until now we have three games remaining against the Knights; with two games in hand. Those games are going to determine the winner of the division.

 

[CookiesAndMilk]

Thank you Kenny for f***ing up my sleep schedule. I'm so stoked to see what this team can bring with these new additions.
