Pre-Game Talk: Oh great, it’s these guys - EDM@TOR - 5 pm MDT

[Oilers in NS]

I think this season Vancouver fans have surpassed all others in the annoying department.

when they act up, just show them that GIF of Marchand speedbagging one of the Sedin Sisters in 2011 Cup and no one did anything about it. Lived in Vancouver during 90's. Im not saying us Maritimers are smart but we are much more enlightened in the game of hockey then people in Vancouver. I played hockey in Burnaby 8 Rinks. Hockey was better in my shit town of 2500 people in NS then Burnaby. Some of the fellas were playing with pitch forks ffs

Heard the leafs have the flu bug going around, hopefully nobody gets sick from this game.

Oil were recently going through with it as well. Ekholm missed 2 games because of it. Nuge s little before that.

Might get the veal cutlets from western pizza

I still remember the one a couple of months ago on the mains trying to justify why JT Miller’s number should be retired league wide

 

[Fixed to Ruin]

I don't like that Stecher is out. Would rather have a good puck moving guy vs Toronto than Desharnais or Ceci.

Joey Biden has locked up the Depends endorsement guys.

 

[Stoneman89]

list of most annoying fans
1 Toronto
2 Vancouver
3 NY Rangers
4 LA Kings
5 Calgary

Where are the Hab fans on that list. IMO, they have to make top 5.

Is anyone surprised that Stetcher is out?

Hopefully they give him tomorrow but they probably won’t

 

[Whoshattenkirkshoes]

Love the new line combos! Pretty gold

is line 3 fast enough?

 

[Louis Cypher]

Well time to square off against the team with the most annoying and toxic fans in the world.

Some milestones might happen too!

Discuss.

I actually don't find the fans that bad. It's the media and their constant force feeding us that shit team that i can't stand. Vancouver fans are way worse.

Nope

Coach playing the nice guys /favourites over who actually performs better

 

[KeithIsActuallyBad]

Why load up the top line though?

Knew this was going to happen

 

[CupofOil]

If there are indeed Hockey Gods out there, I'm implore you to allow Hyman at least 2 goals tonight. Please and Thank you, signed all NHL fans outside of Toronto.

 

[Broberg Speed]

Desharnais better not outlet the puck to Matthews.

100%. That's their playoff lineup, the Oilers have a fetish for big Dmen and Stecher doesn't fit that bill. Stecher is out when the top 6 are healthy.

I hate that they're loading up the top line but if it means Hyman getting to 50 tonight then all the more better.

 

[Mr Positive]

I don't like loading the top line but we should be doing it sometimes, so whatever.

It’s unreal. Unfortunately I had pizza the last few days. Work ordered in and had lots of left overs so will get the veal cutlets this time!!

GDT is up

GDT: - Worst Contract in NHL History - Oilers v Leafs @ 5PM (of course it is, that is the only time the Leafs play)

This quote from Editor in Leaf will go down in Internet lore as perhaps the worst tweet in history. That or "Puljujarvi Makes McDavid Better" double knee slap laffer. Fact: Hyman has perhaps the best contract in history at this particular point in time which is all we can measure. Oiler...

I better go spy in the Toronto board and see what that interbred fan base is saying. If I dont make it back, avenge my death

A lot of people make the obvious connection that it is Stecher vs Ceci, but in the short term this is about Stecher covering for an injured Desharnais.

Stecher has earned some points with the coach but him taking Ceci's spot will take time.

I bet Stecher will get ice time in this final stretch. If he's better than Ceci, he'll stay on the team. I don't mind being a bit slow on major decisions.
