Their Barn?
Tonight we make it ours!!!

 

[Drivesaitl]

Stated this in another thread but if the Oilers have McD with Maroon and Drai tonight I feel a breakout game is at hand. A lot of what they did last night was close and the line is so consistently dangerous. They really have been dominating since coming back together even if pts are not reflected in that. They're giving every opponent facing them fits, and a lot of work.

Loading up the top two lines tonight is the right thing to do as to beat the Knights you have to dominate offensive court, not be in your own zone.

The Knights are the best team in the league in offensive zone, not as good in their own zone and defensively they have no answer to a premium McD line and heavy boards pressure.

Oilers manage to win and feel some hope into their break. Oilers will be flying tonight.

Lets be the one team to make the VGK's our bitch.

 

[sundaysleftovers]

Sad to see Barzal and Eberle lighting it up for the Islanders. Ahhhhh what could have been a strong second line for us with RNH......sigh.

 

[MettleMcOiler]

Montoya! Montoya! Montoya!

 

[Mez]

Montoya! Montoya! Montoya!

Is he starting?

 

[rickysusedsht]

Watched vegas play the other night, if the boys arent flying out there it will get ugly fast. They will also be looking for pay back from the beating they took last time. But hey if they can take down the almighty vegas that would be huge for the confidence going forward

 

[GMofOilers]

Happy 21st Connor, rip up Vegas tonight during the game and after!

yeah some not realizing their depth is powerful. Offense and defence. Subban can play too.

WWTD? What would Todd Do? Start Talbot, of course.

Happy 21st Connor, rip up Vegas tonight during the game and after!

I tweeted him that i'd pay for his birthday vegas hooker if he gets a hat trick.

 

[Soliloquy of a Dogge]

McDavid with 21 points in honor of his 21st hatchday.

Eberle had a chance to prove something in the playoffs for us last season. He proceeded to do f*** all.

Never was going to work out here.

 

[Soundwave]

We'll see if the team shows up. I think they are going to be distracted with going to party after the game. They sure as heck did not show up to play on New Years Eve, lets see if they have the discipline to redeem that.

Plus we bullied him...soooo

 

[McBeastMode]

Last nights game was good, but the fact of the matter was, they were down 2-0 in under 4 minutes, against the worst team in the league..
They will really have to step up their game tonight..

Good news is we have Woodcroft and Letestu...What could go wrong...

 

[NeverForget06]

Will be interesting to see if everybody has already shifted to break time

 

[sepHF]

pls start Montoya. Talbot just cant play right now

 

[MettleMcOiler]

Is he starting?

I don't know but I am cheering and hoping he does.

 

[XXIV97]

6-0 Oilers win

 

[Kayen]

Hoping for Montoya start. He was fantastic for us.

 

[McBeastMode]

 

[CycloneSweep]

5-1 Vegas

 

[T-Funk]

Here's your game plan to get everyone engaged Todd: everyone throws a hit on their first shift or they get bizenched for the entire first period.
