I just want to see LOLiers fans in meltdown mode again tonight. Beat them good and hope Campbell books another SO.

 

[Rude Dog]

McDavid is auditioning for Dubas. He will be good. Just not good enough for the Oilers to win. They are not a good team.

 

[Man Bear Pig]

Chain Campbell to the net and we get another W.

Last time we played them three games, and had they won all three they would have gotten ahead of us in the standings.

Similar situation here, if they win both games they will be ahead in points and point%.

We have to get at least as many points as they do in these two games.

 

[Wafflewhipper]

Apparently they play defense now since we destroyed them.
keys to the game:
Beat the refs
Clog up the neutral zone
Win special teams battle

It’s soup time

 

[Jimmy Firecracker]

Let’s kick their ass.

 

[Wafflewhipper]

Matthews line needs to come through tonight and Keefe’s line blending will be fun to watch again. Kassian playing third line so watching to see if he starts running around.

He’ll run into a (Wayne) Train if he starts acting up.

I am having some fun before game time. I am writing up the Borje Salming press release for my company. Somehow, the execs thought I should have the pleasure lol.

I haven't written a press release in a long time. And Salming was my favourite player, so I really don't want to screw this up. If anyone out there is a professional writer or marketing script writer and wants to chip in, give me a pm please.

 

[RealisticLeaf55]

So pumped up for this game. Hate that I am not watching it. Currently sitting at a 15-7 record when watching at home. Work sucks sometimes for pulling me away from this big games.

Hope Campbell shuts the door on these over confident Lolilers team and puts their fan base in misery.

 

[1specter]

These guys need another humbling. Seen too many Oil fans talk big of late.

Tbh I don't want Wayne dropping the gloves right now. He just got back from a broken hand, don't need him reinjuring it

They still have Tyson Barrie playing big minutes so I'm sure we can take advantage.

You got it wrong dude, the last time the Leafs played the Oilers, it was a 3 game series that the Leafs won all of by a total score of 13-1

Yeah, he should probably play another week or two before he considers dropping them.

 

[Sniper99]

Hoping we play a full 60 mins and hoping Reilly figures outvwhat a slapshot is or Keefe gets him off PP1.

Keep skating with McDave like the last 3 games. Dont stand around like a pylon and we'll be good tonight

Leafs vs Oilers Take 2 annnnd roll......

I can’t stand him on the powerplay. He can’t shoot and he can’t get pucks through. Worst thing of all is that he looks off Matthews and shoots himself. Watch for it but be prepared to be p!ssed off if you do

Don't like Gally on the 4th line, I thought he played well enough to keep his spot in the top6. They didn't bury their chances, but he was dangerous every shift.

I think it's a move focused on defense most likely. Tavares line will probably play a lot of minutes against Drai/McDavid.

I really like Gally but he's a bit of a defensive liability currently.

Keefe maybe thinking he found a way to exploit their 4th line with Gally on there but i agree he was fine up the lineup. Keefe looking at a angle to exploit them i think.
