Pass. I’m going to the gym instead.

 

[5 Mins 4 Ftg]

This one’s an obvious scheduled loss. Could get downright ugly.

 

[tardigrade81]

Ya I can’t see us winning this. Tampa is pretty hot right now. Back to back for us

Maybe Campbell finally stands on his head for us and steals one.

 

[brentashton]

It’s Tuesday night. Probably will not watch this one.

Tuesday is normally when I pluck my nose and ear hairs.

 

[K1984]

The Oiler usually do the exact opposite of conventional wisdom so I anticipate a really good effort with Campbell playing lights out tonight.

 

[AddyTheWrath]

RNH - McDavid - Hyman
Kane - Draisaitl - McLeod
Shore - Holloway - Ryan
Yamo/Foegele/Pulju jettisoned to the 4th line

Please.

Or at least do Kane - Drai - Pulju and leave HymaNuge intact.

 

[BoldNewLettuce]

The Oilers theme would be to win to make things more confusing for hfboards.

So many deck chairs in the bottom six.

 

[AddyTheWrath]

So many deck chairs in the bottom six.

Yeah but at least Holloway and Ryan are semi useful. I would waive Foegele for Janmark and replace Shore for Kostin though cuz what do we have to lose.

Lmao!!

Oilers already down 2-0 by simply walking through the building
Jack Campbell blaming himself for wearing his unlucky socks

Washington was a winnable game..this one is not...bend over Oilers!

 

[bobbythebrain]

Holloway looked decent-ish with McD the other nite. He should start on that first line in this one

JP is just an embarrassing to watch now.. That cross crease he blew with all the time and space in the world sums up his IQ. Watching him on the boards last nite was also like watching a rodeo clown get mauled by a bull on the boards.

I was thinking the same.

Feels like a game where McDrai will go supernova.

McDavid has had alot of big games against the Bolts.

Who knows, need to be better then yesterday.

Maybe they can just forfeit and they can have a bag skate instead.

Guess Skinner isn't our savior. Time for Jack to step up. Why TF have we not changed up the bottom 6 olayers? We have some potential in Bakersfield. Send JP, Foegs, and Yamm down for some fresh players.

Holland arranges his roster by salary.

Making $3M means you're better.

Wouldn’t be the oilers without controversial goaltending lol

How's Benson doing? Grasping for anything.

U can work out better when frustrated

 

[BlackDogg]

Putting all my savings on TB.

90 day slump

 

[trick91]

Leave the lines alone from their winning streak. They had one bad game against Dallas, and even then they were generating a good amount of chances. I would even put Yamamoto back on the second line until we call up a right winger.

Stupid hat isn’t so luck anymore someone give me money so I can buy another lucky hat

Agreed. We were scoring fine last night

Lacked discipline and couldn’t kill a PP to save our life

 

[TheGreatOne11]

Leaf fan coming in peace.

Jack Campbell will find his game guys, most of the time he's a slow starter and honestly he's getting acclimatized right now.

I know this swiss cheese version you're seeing is scary but I promise you this dude is capable of some seriously stellar play.

He is 1000% better than this, and you will see what he can bring to the table over the next few months, just let him get comfortable. The defensive play also needs to be better, but you guys know that.

All I'm saying is what you're seeing, is not all you're going to get, it'll come, just give him some time.

Best of luck to the season for you guys.
