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

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

That’s true you get vitamin D deprived with the lack of sunlight and it can cause seasonal depression.

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

oilers are on pace for what, about 88 points?
when is the last time a team with 88 points made the playoffs?

even though I use it too, I admit "on pace" is a meaningless stat. for me, I think I use it when I have a flawed argument and I'm desperate to make a point.

Don't have a good feeling about this one. This team has yet to win 4 games in a row + Dallas probably wants revenge after they lost the first one + McDavid is sick. I see Dallas peppering us in the first 10 min and actually capitalizing on a couple.

Draisaitl..

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

I'd be feeling a lot better if it was Benn's wife that had gone into labour.

Draisaitl..

I heard he might have floaters too

 

[Stoneman89]

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.

Do you seriously believe he is taking and using fan suggestions and comments to formulate his decisions?

Can't really use 'on pace' argument unless you believe there's no difference between Hitch and TMac.

I knew it. He is a member of this forum.

Now which one is it?

 

[space321]

It would be cool if this team could score more goals and win by more than a goal.

 

[talitintti]

It would be cool if this team could win

Fixed for all I care about.

Bow before me.

 

[Mr Tadakichi]

Bow before me.

OH SHIT!

 

[The Hound]

Benn vs Looch pls

It would be cool if this team could score more goals and win by more than a goal.

I’ll take wins however they come.

Also a good opportunity for McDavid to pop in and eat the placenta for the cells.

Welp, I just barfed.

This post just ties everything together in such a perfect way!

Out of curiosity I looked this up and it turns out the answer is 2015-16 when Minnesota qualified for the playoffs as the second wildcard with a record of 38-33-11 for 87 points.

That is the only time in this playoff format a team has made the postseason with fewer than 91 points.

There’s actually less disease in cold temperatures though. Most bugs don’t survive in the extreme cold.

The flu being a notable exception...

Just f***ing win. Who cares by how many goals.

what is going on with zykov?

 

[McFlash97]

Don't have a good feeling about this one. This team has yet to win 4 games in a row + Dallas probably wants revenge after they lost the first one + McDavid is sick. I see Dallas peppering us in the first 10 min and actually capitalizing on a couple.

Therefore the Oilers win big. 6-2 or 6-3

Dallas riding a high,

Oilers treating themselves as underdogs.

what is going on with zykov?

Our OBC ordered a thorough background check to make sure he's not a Commie. AKA Visa "delays"
