[Rusoilers]

My English is crap
Still I cheer for my team hard
From omsk in Russia

 

[Coffey]

Classic November
Everything we worked for in
October, is f***ed

 

[Coffey]

My English is crap
Still I cheer for my team hard
From omsk in Russia

Your haiku was awesome

If only Puljujarvi had your english.

From NHL.com:

Tippett confirmed that a few Oilers have been cleared to play, which would result in some changes to the lineup.
"We've got a couple people that are ready to go. So, there's a good chance we'll see some changes there," he said.

Does that mean Joel Persson is back?

 

[Rusoilers]

We lost to Detroit
Feeling really awful now
Send the fourth line down

Mcdavid can score
Draisaitl can pass the puck
Yet we still cant win

Drai, what a great guy
Scoring some goals and passing
Unlike that Khaira

 

[Consultant]

Complain if you want to
But we are still first in the Pacific
So get them chins up

 

[BoldNewLettuce]

Noper. Not dead yet.
Lets rip their balls out i guess
Let the boy watch (Hall)

 

[The Safe Play]

Please Persson be back
Russell as 2RD sucks
Manning is a hack

 

[backhandsauce]

Offense explodes.
6-2 Oilers. Bear with 2.

 

[McShogun99]

In for lots of cannons.

They should really put nuge and drai together to get nuge doing something. Mcdavid can pull along whatever scrubs you put with him.

Thats what I think they should do.

Neal-Mcdavid-Kassian
RNH-Draisaitl-Gagner

 

[Coffey]

Complain if you want to
But we are still first in the Pacific
So get them chins up

Not for long, baby
Here comes the 8 game bender
The fall will be hard

Does that mean Joel Persson is back?

Persson in for Manning. Nygard in for Jurco

 

[ConnorMcMullet]

Persson in for Manning. Nygard in for Jurco

Speculation or do you see that somewhere?

 

[Coffey]

Persson in for Manning. Nygard in for Jurco

Thank god for Persson
Finally some D support
We may have a chance

 

[McTonyBrar]

Speculation or do you see that somewhere?

I don't know. What do you think?

 

[oXo Cube]

Persson in for Manning. Nygard in for Jurco

Sorry @boxcar65 you had a good run dude.

 

[bobbythebrain]

Bear has been promising but he gets turnstiled 2x a game lately.

Athanasiou embaraased him 3 times alone yesterday.

Time to drop his minutes cuz his mistakes are becoming glaring. Last thing we need is to Jultz him

 

[MessierII]

Persson in for Manning. Nygard in for Jurco

Did Stauffer the shill confirm? Stoked if Nygard is back albeit I don’t know why they keep scratching jurco. Get juj out of here.

 

[Tobias Kahun]

Sorry @boxcar65 you had a good run dude.

Out scored our entire bottom 6 is his brief stint.

AA is as fast as McDavid, you know that right?

I'm pretty sure he did

 

[OfCorsiDid]

Man if we lose this
Holy f***ing shit oh my
I will hit the button

 

[lakai17]

Time to take the rose coloured glasses off boys and girls. Thought points in the bank, same record from this point on gets us in, blah blah blah....

Leave it to the ultimate slump busters to prove us wrong.

I like my rose coloured glasses.

Neal may pot one goal but ultimately one or both McDavid and Drai will be the difference makers tonight.

 

[ChaoticOrange]

From NHL.com:


Does that mean Joel Persson is back?

“a few?”

so Persson? Maybe Nygard? If it’s more than one guy cleared we’ll have to make a roster move prior to puck drop, yes?

 

[lakai17]

Man if we lose this
Holy ****ing **** oh my
I will hit the button

That is not your panic button or did you finally change the light in it?
