GDT: #XXVII - Oilers @ Stars - "Send them to outer space" - Dec. 3 @ 6:30PM MST - SNW

Water Breaking News! Blake Comeau's wife has gone into labour. He is now listed as proudly doubtful for tonight's game.

Our owner was a drug lord kingpin. Why so stingy with the aborted baby stem cells and foreskin cream Mr. Katz?

Not sure where to start

At the tip?

Just had a look at Dallas dmen for this game. We should get 40 shots on net with that grouping.

Wow no kidding.

Also, maybe you Edmonton locals can help me out with this. I live in a hot climate; does the cold weather there really make everybody sick? I've always thought the temperature thing is really just BS, especially since it's actually been colder here some nights so far than it's been up there. I'm guessing the sickness has to do more with people being in close proximity with each other and general poor hygiene found in locker rooms than it is with the climate, but I could be wrong.

Either way, tired of always hearing McDavid is sick for 1+ month straight at the start of every season. Somebody give that kid a shot!!

Lindell and Heiskanen are legit and Bayreuther looked pretty good last game.
Fedun, Polak and the other dude not so much

CF main page shows us at 23/23 contracts, but CF Oilers page has 24 players listet. I reckon Patrick Russell has been called up today, but who is being sent down?

Zykov is a non-roster player until his immigration issues get sorted out.

Cheers. CF does actually say his status is NHL non-roster, but lists him on the roster nonetheless. Whatever. I should have looked more closely.

So glad Koskinen is edging out Rittich right now. Glad we don't have to hear how 'amazing' he is.

 

[McBeastMode]

Glad Hitch is sticking with Kostco, MacT and his "We have to get his confidence back" or "We have to get Lucic going", has cost us a lot of games...

Putting Lucic on McDavid's line last year, for a quarter of the season, was like drinking Nyquil and Redbull ....

Happy to finally have a smart coach...

His interviews are so much better too. The fact he LISTENS to the fan base and is taking every suggestion to heart shows he is open to changes. Those who were calling Hitchcock a dinosaur and he would be old school to the guys, he's definitely been quite the opposite. Used what worked for him and adapted well. If they cannot find someone better than Hitch this summer, I REALLY hope he stays for 1 more season. At least until we find a better replacement.

 

[BudBundy]

I actually laughed out loud. Folks beside me at Subway looking at me

I hope he doesn't, for his health's sake.

I'm actually worried about him THIS season.

That's OK. Just turn to them and say this:

This guy does crazy stuff in the cold, and he's not sick,..... "physically"..

 

[Louis Cypher]

This teams always sick lol

Living in Edmonton?

 

[Gord]

people are yet again getting their hopes up regarding this team.
therefore, Oilers will lose and things will get back to normal.

with a sick McDavid, I can't see this roster getting more than two goals.
close game, but 4-2 Dallas with an empty net goal.

We are only 2 points behind our playoff pace of 2 years ago.

The change of temperate in the spring and fall does generally cause some colds to spread. Your body is shocked from the quick change in temp and it effects your immune system. There’s actually less disease in cold temperatures though. Most bugs don’t survive in the extreme cold.

The darkness also brings on depression and laziness that make the common cold seem that much worse.

Nothing to do with tonight but for Wednesday...the Blues put Pietrangelo on IR.
