Pre-Game Talk: Oilers vs Bruins - Saturday afternoon Beantown massacre

[BoldNewLettuce]

i predict an impressive win followed by 43 consecutive losses

This one is going to hurt, unless the goaltending rebounds to a God level of heights, which.......I don't see happening

 

[Delicious Pancakes]

Well if the Oilers play hard for a full 60 minutes then...nevermind.

 

[tardigrade81]

Almost as unfair as BUF having to play against us. One of the worst teams with ****ty special teams going against league best PP and near top PK.

BOS lost to both NJ and LA in DEC and have lost more games than won in recent past. It's anyone's game.
Let's see what version of Oilers show up.

Well when you put that spin on it lol.

My prediction is that the Bruins will win 5-2 including two empty net goals from their own zone.

Haas and Nurse strike for the Oilers in the first five minutes but the Bruins claw back and overtake them as their depth shines through and the best line in hockey destroys McDrai.

If we win this game I'm probably going to have to stop being an Oilers fan.

Lmao, I could see it.

I think we get heavily out played but finally our goalie bails us out with a 3-2 win.

Don’t worry... you’re going to be an Oilers fan for a long... LONG, time.

Too many quality veterans on the B's still today.

We need a big game by kosko as usual. I am optimistic on his game.

 

[ScoreGoalsPlease]

We are Timothy Treadwell and the Bruins are every pissed off bear in Alaska. I hope they decide not to air the game as it's illegal to show bloody death on live tv.

 

[ujju2]

For some unexplainable reason, I'm feeling a win tomorrow.

Maybe time for a Boston Pizza and Tea party if we do.

 

[RegDunlop]

I'd try to start Smith AND Koskinen together

 

[Del Preston]

I want the GDT. I'm 2-1.

 

[TopShelfGloveSide]

Oilers actually play well against top teams. I can see a W.

Or just find some 800 lbs dude and strat some equipment on him and put him in net. I'm sure TLC could help us find some.

Honestly never understood why one team doesn't do this. You could literally give the guy 5 million dollars to sit in a net for 60 minutes every other night and he'd probably have the best save % in the league.

 

[Senor Catface]

I didn't realize Boston lost so much in OT. Like a ton.

I've wondered this kind of thing my whole life. Some 800lb man that's bigger than the net. Just take a forklift out and drop him there on the ice.

All this time I thought it was just me..

Sounds like a slump that needs some bustin'...
Enter stage right, Oilers.

 

[Mav3rick07]

I am aware that Boston is a powerhouse but I honestly haven’t tuned into too many Bruins games this season.

Maybe we come out strong and actually win ? Like someone mentioned , I noticed they have lots of OT losses.

Are 800lb people wide enough to cover the whole width? Can't imagine there would be a lot of lateral movement there.

Or would you have to roll them up sideways?

John Scott was the heaviest player at 270.

Gonna take a lot of Viagra. But at least they'd be "ready" for the moment.
