whats wrong with Gravel ? hes a solid defensive defenseman, why have Benning in against the Jets. The guy is going to be turned inside out, upside down , by the end of the game he might be stickhandling with his legs skating with his head and doing crossovers with his arms .....

Jets fan living in Edmonton, I come in peace. Obviously Jets-Oilers match-ups are particularly of interest to me.

Man, grim attitude around this place. Lighten up - you're only on game 4, you have perhaps the best player in the world on your team, and Jets have looked really average so far this season.

I do wonder how long it'll take before Garrison makes it absolutely clear that he's a detriment to the team. I mean he's on the downside of his career and he played almost the entirety of last season in the AHL. He's not an NHLer. Gravel should be up here over him.

I don't mind Benning playing. I don't think Bouchard has looked that great (I really don't think he should be here unless they play him on the PP and he excels there), and I still have some misguided faith that Benning will find his game from two years ago. Putting him out there with Garrison is a disaster waiting to happen though.

Its more like game 4 of the continuation from last year....and having the best player in the world makes it worse because we shouldnt be bad. But I do honestly agree we need to lighten up a bit.

Perhaps, you say?

Lordy, this made me think about this team without McDavid.

We frown upon optimism here.... we've had it beaten out of us over the past ten years.

I just hope this isn't one of those typical times when the Oilers are the cure for everything that ails. I don't want to look back when Winnipeg takes off on a heater and this was the game that started it.

Jets take off. Ha!
