This kind of has letdown game written on it. Oilers have looked pathetic, and seem ripe for an offensive shellacking by us at home... which probably means that won't happen.

Not to mention the condition of our offense right now.

Crosby - 5G
Jokinen - 3G
Adams - 3G
Kobasew - 2G
Niskanen, Malkin, Kunitz, Dupuis, Glass, Martin, Orpik - 1G

No Neal, Letang and Bennett. Adams is tied for second in goals, Malkin's line is in flux and K/D are playing like garbage.

Getting into "Who can score more?!?" game could be a lost cause. The defense and Fleury have to be good enough.

You say that like it's surprising.

*"logic" that doesn't hurt my head, that is.

I was just to post it, but you guys beat me to it :laugh: Showcasing Engelland is the one and only reason, otherwise it makes no sense to play him over Bortuzzo for the 2nd straight game. I will give DB pass for it, hopefully it´s the case here.

For what we know, Engelland was practicing on a separate D-pair with Letang.. Maybe the Oilers really wanted to see him in the action, or WTF? It´s kinda weird.

My remaining solace of him playing over Bortuzzo is that they are shopping him out to Edmonton. Better hope he has a good game now.

I could kill you now. It's not my fault being the biggest and the strongest. I don't even exercise.

PS: I can totally hear this stuff coming from Geno's mouth :laugh:
