GDT: Preseason: Oilers @ Flames (Split Squad) 7:00PM Pouliot-RNH-Eberle Reinhart+Nurse

[McDeathbyCheerios*]

Ferland and Nurse are going to go this game after he ragdolled Andersson.

Ferland can do all he wants. We have enough guys that can make him look like a fool

 

[KlefDown]

Nurse wreking Johnny Hockey would be great.

I predict Gaudreau dangles Nurse once, and gets just creamed when he tries to do it a second time.

"He won't be able to hit him." - All Flames fans

"Just wait until he's on the boards." - All Oiler fans.

 

[Kerricthebig]

I predict he will try to dangle Nurse but he will be kept to the outside and body blocked the whole way. Nurse did it to McDavid, Gaudreau will be easy.

Nurse was able to keep up and hit McDavid a few times and McDavid is twice the skater as Gaudreau is.

To be fair I would love to watch Eberle nail him into the boards and score. To shut the comparisons up

 

[sundaysleftovers]

Goes to show how deeeeeeeep the oilers are, they can split up the team and have pretty even lineups.

Wooooo hockey!

Haha, I know. I'm just mocking the realistic manner in which that conversation would go.

Even if he couldn't "keep up with him," he'll definitely catch him on the boards, where he does a lot of damage.

But just imagine this...

Eberle lays a big bit on Gaudreau stripping the puck, does the Eberle toe drag around Hamilton and blasts one past Hiller .

CP would go all Heaven's Gate.

I moved the Hall, McDavid, Purcell talk to the other GDT if folks are looking for it

Lol, I thought I was going a little bonkers. "I could have sworn it was in this thread!"

 

[OnTheBrink]

Anyone know if the games will be archived??

 

[SometimesY]

Yakimov is big, but does he play physical? For some reason this Calgary game interests me more than the Edmonton game.

I would also like to know this as I have an appointment this evening and will likely miss most of the games.

Nuge begins his breakout season tonight. Who is coaching this one?

 

[Slicknitty]

 

[Jeff Lebowski]

So which game is Mclellan coaching?

 

[Kerricthebig]

So which game is Mclellan coaching?

Edmonton, I think. That is where his pregame video is posted, at least.

 

[IAGTTAYM]

So which game is Mclellan coaching?

Home game.

 

[SometimesY]

Wish they staggered these games by at least an hour/hour and a half.

 

[Spawn]

Most interested in how Reinhart/Gryba play in this one. A lot are hoping that will be the bottom pairing this year. Hope they have a good showing.

 

[tempest2i]

Much more interested in this game than the one going on in Edmonton tonight.

It'll be a great test for the Oilers who make the trip down here.

Outside of the McDavid line and how they'll look as well as the Yak line IMO this is the game to watch. Calgary has some beef in this game and we have our 1A or 1B line here along with Reinhart-Gryba and Nurse LaLeggia. Not to mention Christoffer, can he carry his strong play from the rookie tournament to this level? My guess to that question is yes he can and he will.

Agreed. l can't wait to see what Nurse and Reinhart look like in psuedo-competition.
