[KeithIsActuallyBad]

Should be a barn burner.

But hopefully it's a front office burner.

If we beat Ottawa we're helping out Colorado.

Not sure how i feel about this.

 

[XXIV97]

If we lose to Ottawa.......

 

[Ritchie Valens]

I predict they beat the Oilers 4-3. Ottawa with a late game winner with 2 minutes or less to go.

 

[Little Fury]

Lose for Hughes.

 

[ZJuice]

I predict they beat the Oilers 4-3. Ottawa with a late game winner with 2 minutes or less to go.

Predicting more than 2 goals for the Oilers? BOLD

 

[Mr Tadakichi]

SOMEBODY has to win this game, right?

 

[Drivesaitl]

If we beat Ottawa we're helping out Colorado.

Not sure how i feel about this.

How are the two connected in any way? I'm not getting it.

 

[OnTheBrink]

Colorado have Sens 1st rounder this year.

Colorado has Ottawa 1st round pick from the Duchene trade. Therefore with every Ottawa loss Colorado's chances of getting 1st overall or a better draft position increase.

Thanks, I rarely follow trades to that detail. My interest has declined significantly. I find it depressing to review other teams trades and procurement.

the Toilet Bowl game

re-match is a couple week back in Edmonton

They didn't lottery protect it? Oh man.

 

[McDavid87]

Draisaitl with a goal and an assist.

Chiasson with a goal.

McDavid with an assist.

 

[Fixed to Ruin]

They didn't lottery protect it? Oh man.

They had an option for either last yr's first or this yr's first. They chose to keep their pick last year and take Brady Tkachuk.

 

[Hullois]

Do we know what tonight's lineup will look like?

 

[ThreeOfAPerfectPair]

Imagine if we lose.

 

[TheRebuild]

Senators win this one easily if they come into it with the right mindset. The only way the Oilers win is if the Sens literally throw the game.

 

[elmeroil]

Imagine if we lose.

That's not a hard thing to do these days.

 

[FanOfSadTeam]

Every year for the past decade+ (except one), we've had a title like this.

 

[david999]

Ottawa just traded their 3 top scorers in the last week. Oilers should win this no problem, but I have a feeling they will get spanked again like they did in Toronto, based on them believing they are much better than Ottawa.

 

[Cypress]

Would be fine with a non-embarrassing loss, but I think we get the win here.

 

[Kepler 186f]

 

[BendItLikePeckham]

I'll be in attendance tonight, the last time I went Oilers won 7-2 in 15-16.

With that being said, expecting a 2-0 loss and constant heckling from hockey's equivalent of the This is Fine dog.

 

[ElysiumAB]

Oh great, another game!!!!!!!!
