Pre-Game Talk: Pre-GDT Oilers vs Flames

[OfCorsiDid]

Let's enjoy it while it lasts because those corporate logos on other teams look like trash

Some aren’t too bad. But some are awful.

Whomever on the Leafs thought taking a Tik Tok sponsorship was a good idea should probably be fired.

My son thought it was really cool.lol

I obviously like my Euro's and their tackily sponsored jerseys I love! I even own a few (my fav is a Kometa Brno jersey with a hotel ad on it.lol). However, all the sponsors are things I can't pronounce or know so it feels cool.

Watching guys skate around with Tik Tok on their helmet feels strange to me.

Just wait for LA to unveil the "PornHub" sponsorship decals on theirs.

i honestly dont even notice the helmet stickers, but i find it surprising that Katz isnt all about taking that free money. must be a competition or bidding war for the spot.

So, I'm not an IT expert or anything, but was there really no way to shift the site's software migration 24 hours? Maybe instead of having it during game action on a night when 28 teams are on the ice we could have done it on the Sunday with two teams playing?

 

[McDrai]

I would like to see Tippett try this just once. One can dream.

Hyman-McDavid-Yamamoto
RNH-Draisaitl-Puljujarvi
Foegele-Ryan-Kassian
Perlini-McLeod-Turris

Doesn't matter much. The migration will likely impact longer and more before, during, and after the migration and there will be blinking lights, smoke, fire, and confusion reigns. I think the last time this happened the board was wonky for a week, lag times all over, and sometimes the default was black screen... I just anticipate no posting for about a week. Could be wrong...

But IT disclaimers on how long migration of servers, programs, and disruption during, haha...

i think the given is I wouldn't expect much of a GDT or PGT tomorrow.

So I'm getting in my comments now. Oilers win, Oilers win.

ps 2022 will be much much better.

This post will be erroneously time stamped in order circa 1995.

 

[TopShelfGloveSide]

Who?

Hahaha fair enough.

 

[Anarchism]

So will Goalman be playing or Suspended?

 

[Mr Positive]

The Foegele-Ryan-Kassian line has potential to be very special.

Also I hope that Perlini never gets promoted out of the 4th line. We need an impact player like that on every line. Although last game he barely played. I didn't track what happened there.

 

[Drivesaitl]

I'm posting from the future now. All my posts now will be in future board tense. Was really refreshing to see the Oilers finish first place, win first round, and have time to wait for 2nd round opponent.

Sorry for spoilers. We'll see if this post makes it to the new board migration. I mean it should.

 

[Mr Positive]

suspended

Flames start the game with a nice tidy excuse for a loss. That should appease the fans.

To everyone else: this is the same guy that says Nurse isn’t a #1 D. Take what he says with a grain of salt.

I never said that... you took it out of context. Also you are trolling.

Also, when you say 'everyone else'.. who are you referring to? Is this your club?

 

[GingerJesus28]

Who the f*** approved McDavid messing around on sneakers on ice with Cabbie?????

 

[Senor Catface]

Who's bringing the Cassierole?

It's going to be extra salty.

 

[Llamamoto]

And that was against a decent Canucks team. Imagine what they can do against a dumpster first trash team like Calgary.

Lol alright alright, that was a bit mean and over the top.

I’m so angry today. Computer issues at work. Making me mad

 

[xoczar99ox]

were talking 2 different things. I agree i would like him to be more aggressive in regards to hitting and engaging other teams, but the post i quoted was referring to him fighting which i dont want. as much as i love watching him fight and his ol man yelling beat his ass, i dont want him sitting 5 in the box unless absolutely needed

I here what your saying but sometimes five minutes in the box is the cost of reminding people that they better keep there shit in line or the price to pay is going to be steep.

Be careful, he might look at your infractions and post them online.

When has Kassian helped us win these games against calgary? I can think of several he cost us.

Also... Him on the ice has not deterred ratboy. Most of his most annoying antics were with Kassian playing.

NHL players aren't scared of one another...

I didn’t say he was scared…

 

[Czechboy]

I didn’t say he was scared…

Fair.. he's never been deterred either. He even fought Kassian face to face. This is guy that wants Kass in the lineup because he can goad him into a penalty and then score (or assist) on the powerplay.

He's got the stage presence of a young Jack Parr!

I was surprised to see Khaira back so soon after his KO's last season. I feel the same about Kass. Way too soon from a human perspective. He is not the kind of guy that would every want to be sat out or say he was hurt. Loves the code and it is admirable. But he has about 50 more years on this planet and only 5 are in hockey.

I would like Russel to stick with Bouch for at least the first 10 games. He is excellent at the 5/6 role and can make Bouch look great (not that Bouch needs that help).
