Pre-Game Talk: Oilers in Sin City on Saturday

[Cloned]

Normally I’d be upset about how the Oilers only play one game in the next week, but then I remember Nurse is injured and for once I’m thankful for the NHL’s unbalanced scheduling.

Hopefully Keith is back for this one.

Wondering if the golden knights will be wearing their C3PO helmets…

Those helmets make me not wanna watch

I like that the team didn’t fly into LV after last nights game, get a day of rest in the valley it was on the cooler side but still was 22C, warm enough to go golfing (except it was windier than hell) given the B2Bs and then walk in to Vegas and own those posers. End the roadie on a positive.

I hope we don’t have a system failure!

 

[5 Mins 4 Ftg]

My best guess lines are the same lines we beat Az with.

Draisaitl McDavid Kassian
Hyman RZH Honeybadger
Foegele McLoed PJ
Benson Sceviour Turris

Defence - whomever is healthy and whatever pairings that seems to be working.

I think Tip goes back to Kosko. Just my gut feeling.

Hopefully our forwards are down low helping the D out as they will no doubt be pressured by the VGK forecheck.

Also - Bettmans Babies can f*** off.

Yup. Works great.

Stauffer was on SiriusXM with Kouleas and said Keith is “walking about” with the team, seemed to think he’d be back soon

Who's injured for the knights? Last time they were down a bunch of key guys. Are they healthy now?

Jack Eichel methinx

Eichel, Martinez, Marsecheault, Karlsson, Nolan Patrick, Brett Howden as far as I know. Essentially missing 2/3rds of their 2nd line. Tuch was hurt as well but he was flipped for Eichel whose out till about March April.

Amadio out too if that makes any difference.

Pacioretty is back. So its Eichel and Karlsson as the key IR losses

Okay lol it is more a la Moreaupheus

I see Nolan Patrick is injured again. That kid is like a walking bandaid

If you're going to ask about the Sports Net app on the firestick, I gave up on it weeks ago. Total garbage. I have to watch on actual cable or my laptop when I'm out of town.

Same issue as before too, bad concussion early in the season. I am not sure he has a career as a player sadly.

That sucks. Hopefully he is able to rebound like Crosby did after his string of concussions.

Isn’t stone still out or did I miss his return?

He had wicked migraines from his last one when with the Flyers. I was watching the game he got hit early this year and it wasn’t even that bad.

Reminds me of my sons friend who got tagged really bad in the melon playing minor league football. Was out for nearly a year with a wicked concussion and still not 100% and that was 6-7 years ago.

He’s been back for a few games now.
