GDT: Oilers @ SENS, Tonight 7pm TSN5, RDS, SNW

[Do Make Say Think]

Yeah so he should be giving chabot some shit when he sees him for giving away too much

coming out and basically saying “hope” is bs and she never ever say dumb shit like that again

Yeah, sure, whatever you say.

You are about as deep as DJ is with the media.

Good job.

Well did you not just imply DJ doesn’t give away much so that other teams don’t find out his strategy (it didn’t seem to matter). Chabot just said a lot more than DJ said.

DJ is as deep with the media as he is with his game plans

Going to say it’s another ugly defensive game

Only if we take excessive penalties.

The new defensive line up sees us winning or at least tying so many more foot speed battles in the d zone, so that the sustained pressure has come way down.

Since the Oilers' forwards outside of McDavid and Draisaitl are not exceedingly talented, defending those 2, especially on the powerplay, is key.

Holding the balanced Habs offence to 4 goals in 2 games should mean that the same plan can contain the Oilers outside of the Big 2 to few chances, as well or better than the last 4-2 loss in Edmonton. Add in the recent confidence boost, and there could be a nice momentum shaping up.

Or I could be channeling my inner Dorion and be completely wrong...

Yes and I’m the shallow one.

6 hours to g0

if McDavid only gets 5 points in 2 games.. that's a success

 

[Burrowsaurus]

Had no idea where to ask this. But talking with some buddies. Do any of the insiders here know what really went down with dany heatley when he demanded the trade?

 

[Crosside]

Stützle: Being targeted physically by opponent is nothing new

Brannstrom: Confidence level is much higher than it was last season

Chabot: Need to take away time and space from McDavid and Draisaitl especially when on PK

Smith: Have to make McDavid and Draisaitl play in the own zone more often

 

[TheDebater]

-Bad goaltending...blow out or a bad loss

-Good goaltending....we keep it close, maybe even squeak out a win.

If we replicate the Montreal game we probably win easily tonight.

Naww we don't know for sure. We've all heard from a friend who heard from a friend what really happened tho!

The truth is probably a lot more boring than those stories. Hopefully someday we get a tell all tho.

 

[Tap on the Ankle]

mcloser is gonna light them up again

 

[The Expert]

What are all the vets for then? The cross check to the head came for 2 seconds left.

I'm sure you would have just been complaining about a vet taking a penalty ruining our chance at a comeback anyways.

 

[Cosmix]

more specific than "work"

I think the team needs three forwards who are quick, fast and strong checkers to contain McDavid and Drais. We might have one: Formenton, who is not playing.

Defensively we need at least two D who can pre vent them from attacking the net with strong positional defensive play and high end skating skills. Who fits that requirement on our D?

 

[Cosmix]

He drew 3 penalties last game against the Habs. Would be stupid for anyone to jump in and take a needless penalty that negates our own powerplay.

Getting picked on is normal for star players, Crosby took a beating in his first couple of seasons and whined non stop about it until he finally realized it was not going to end and he became better for it as opposed to letting it ruin him. Stützle will be the same, he is a tough kid.

And Gretzky had Semenko and McSorely riding shotgun!

What do I care about the score? We’re finishing dead last anyway. There’s two seconds on the board. That should have been fireworks.

same as last game, these articles can and should be posted all together in one post... no need to clutter the thread with 4 posts in a row.

My cat just barfed up a fur ball! That usually mean automatic WIN! Let's gOOOOOOOOO!

 

[Odie Cleghorn]

No one standing up for you must be new tho

He wasn't targeted in the last game. The first high stick (was NOT a high stick or a penalty). The 2nd high stick I don't know what Chariot was doing (no one does). The crosscheck with 2 seconds to go was HOPEFULLY retaliation for the cheap shot on Evans.

whatever the reason, he will always be a senators legend for scamming Melnyk out of the 4 million signing bonus

It was because of Cory Clouston. He put #50in07 on PP2 and reduce his ice time and at the end of the season he asked for a trade.

Edit: It was known at the timethat All Star Heater and Clouston didn't like each other..

Mike Smith is starting for EDM. This is good news in my opinion.

We're going to crush them to bits!!
