Pre-Game Talk: time to get seer

[BlackDogg]

So Nilsson starts tomorrow?

 

[McTrashBoat]

So Nilsson starts tomorrow?

Well which offence is more of a threat?

Montreal vs NYI

Montreal: 140
NYI: 137


Thats a little surprising, but I bet it's way different if you only count the last 2 months

 

[Mr Positive]

has anyone else noticed that early games tend to be very high scoring? They definitely seem above average. I think we're in for a barn burner

plus if it's true that Nilsson is in that might put icing on the cake. I like Nilsson, but Talbot has been on fire

 

[McTrashBoat]

So their last 4 games have been losses by scores of 5-2, 5-2, 4-2, 4-2


We may have a chance

 

[t0nedeff]

Do you guys want Nilsson to start against a playoff team that actually has offensive weapons in NYI or do you want to play him against arguably the worst team during the last 2 months? I think it's a pretty easy decision considering Sundays game is a nooner as well.

 

[BudBundy]

Ders with the shutoutl

Bold prediction; Ders robs Pacioretty so badly that his "C" falls off.

The "C" won't fall off until after Nurse beats his ass.

 

[Mr Positive]

Montreal has been the worst team in the league in 2016. Columbus just beat them twice in a row.

If the team shows up ready to play, they should win. That or we get some epic bad luck. Considering how this season has gone I wouldn't rule that out.

 

[VainGretzky]

Flames lose I love it.

 

[BlackDogg]

So fitting:

Only WE were able to tame the mighty Blue Jackets on their western road trip

 

[thadd]

It's amazing. I go on a road trip and suddenly the Oilers are awesome again...

 

[MCDAVIDISH]

I always kinda wish the team we go up against is on a winning streak because we are so good at breaking losing streaks for teams.

 

[RuneMcEres]

We gotta play Talbot in both games. I don't trust Nilsson one bit, unfortunately.

Any kind of streak actually.

It seems whenever the commentator mentions some crazy cold streak an player orteam is having, the record is just shattered by the end of the game.

 

[ChaoticOrange]

I would be very, very happy if we could beat the Habs ***** tomorrow.

 

[Aceboogie]

I think streak ends tomorrow with a bad loss 4-1

I want McDavid to destroy the east and build up a bunch of talk around the league. It will help with at FA signing day.

I think the goal he scored in his return built up about as much talk as humanly possible hahaha.

It's hard to have faith in the Oilers. On a streak? Against a team doing poorly and letting in a ton of goals?

I've seen this script toooooo many times.

True, but that will fade with time. a few more of those as the season winds down will go a long way in the minds of UFAs

But not that much with McDavid in the lineup. It's wonderful watching teams send out their best against him in a futile effort to shut him down. Leaving Hall and Drai to feast on the rest of the lineup.

Yeah, I want to believe! Nothing would give me more pleasure.

It's been fun to watch McDavid go out there and burn a team for multiple scoring chances just to have Hall and Drai come over the boards.

 

[Bryanbryoil]

He's going to lose his Patch?

Did somebody say Patches?

 

[Rockomax]

Hey guys! Habs fan here. I just wanted to take the opportunity given by today's game to ask for some news on AHL player Marco Roy. 6 points in 23 games seems underwhelming, anyone has seen him enough to give me a short assessment of his play so far, has he been injured again? I used to play street hockey with him as a kid, hence my interest.

Anyways, here's to the McDavid show coming coming up in a few hours. Scrivens saying this isn't a special moment for him playing against former teammates though. He probably knows he'll get pulled after giving 4 goals in the 1st period. Keep our tank rolling!
