Oilers youth lead the way

[Draiskull]

Ya its getting to the point I want Hordichuk to just go pummel someone and see if it deters anyone. Guys are really targeting Schultz and trying to run him through the boards

or we can pair J.Schultz with Fistric.. Make guys go through Fistric if they want to get at Schultz.

I dont think 4mins\game of a middle weight is going to deter anyone..

That's actually a pairing I've been kind of hoping to see for a few games now.

Not for the goon aspect(which I think is becoming archaic in today's game), but because Justin Shultz looks like he needs less babysitting than Whitney(and his mobility issues), and could benefit more from someone who brings more strength to breaking the cycle in the corners and clearing the front of the net.

All I can say is that I can easily live with them going 4-2-1 for every stretch of 7 games. That'd be a nice, healthy 28-14-6 record in the end . (Equivalent to roughly 47-24-11) or 105 points. So they could even through a 3 game losing streak in there and probably make the playoffs if they can keep this up.

Kruger is having issues playing Fistric regularly.. Schultz is starting to play the hardest minutes... Doubt he would pair them together unless he is sold on FISTTrick!!

Oh I agree with that. I just want to see Hordi return the favour next time someone takes an extra run at Schultz

This is the sort of result you get when you do the correct pre-work.

Eberle Nuge, Halll and Schultz playing in the AHL to begin with has a lot to do with our current run.

And that's all it is right now, a nice little run.
