Pre-Game Talk: Jets Come to Town

[JordanGalhanth]

we will hammer them.

Instant jinx post.

I don't think they're ranked too high since they were relatively healthy up until about January.

What kind of voodo horse piss mixed with tart berries and frogs blood do the Flames drink to keep them injury free.

 

[Heavy Dee]

Boy the Wild are hard charging....

Archie-Sheahan-Kassian is a big, fast, checking line.

I personally thought Tipp would put Kass back with McDavid but I’m definitely not opposed to this.

I think Kassians play after the 1st suspension, combined with the 2nd suspension has put kassian in Tippetts dog house for the immediate future. To earn those top line minutes back, Kass will have to bring some of that on the edge, but not over the edge jam for a few games.

 

[Jumptheshark]

pretty much one of the bigger must win games and not give up a loser point games of the year

Ya this would be classic oilers to miss playoffs and depress me.

He has sucked since the 1st suspension. I posted in the Kassian signing thread that he needs to play hard regardless of what line he's on.

Because we’re gonna smash these jabronis brother!!!!

Who you think Will get the start between Smith and Koskinen?

Smith.

Counting byfuglien for the jets is a bit disingenuous

 

[Louis Cypher]

Benning is back in. Guaranteed win!

 

[BlackDogg]

Kassian leaves for kicks and comes back to find out someone took his chair.

 

[3IR]

Benning is back in. Guaranteed win!

Love those forward lines!

When Neal gets back we can push one of Chiasson or Khaira out, and when Nygard gets back we can push out the other. DEPTH RULES

 

[nexttothemoon]

Benning is back in. Guaranteed win!

Not guaranteed... but he certainly helps.

 

[Bones2079]

Arch and Kassian on the forecheck together should be fun to watch

Shop like a mother.

Games just keep getting bigger....7 teams within 4 points up for a wild card spot, 4 of them for 2 spots in the pacific. Crazzzy.

Have to get back that pre trade deadline swagger. Getting down to the nitty gritty.

 

[barry halls]

What a weird time to be an Oilers fan. I wouldn’t be shocked if they lost the next 3 or 4 in a row and fell out of the race. But I also wouldn’t be surprised if they won the next 4 or 5 in a row and challenged for the division title.

 

[Mez]

we really need a 3+ game winning streak about now.

 

[McDrai]

Please.Win.This.Game.

 

[SwedishFire]

I would prefer if when Neal is healthy that he replaces Chiasson in the lineup, and a guy like Benson comes up to replace Khaira.

AA-McDavid-Ennis
RNH-Draisaitl-Yamamoto
Archibald-Sheahan-Kassian
Benson-Haas-Neal

That would be the best lineup we could run.

Next season, Holland has an easy offseason. Resign Tennis. Resign bear, resign Nuge. Find ONE 3C. Done.

AA McDavid Ennis
RNH Draisaitl Yama
Neal - 3C - Kassian
Nygård Sheahan Archibald

And yeah, get rid of some junk like Khaira, Chiasson, Prussell, Puljujärvi, and trade one of Russell, Benning maybe,

ONE spot is left. ANd maybe Haas finds his way with the new team. Then nothing more needs to be done.

I don't disagree with this.

Well done.
