I wanna see Ethan Bear unload a few boomers.

Wonder if that means Drai won't play the U of A game. That'd be kinda disappointing.

He will probably be playing very limited minutes tonight

My thought exactly reason they have him listed on 4th line… I think he will get a couple EV Strength shifts a period and some PP time.

I could see him play more if we fall behind.

 

[BoldNewLettuce]

If I were to guess right now.

Christoffer, laurikainen,chase and slepy deserve long looks at camp. Add yak, khaira and davidson, pitlick, pakarinen, I think.

Slepyshev should need to up his game a bit but that isn't totally unlikkely. Once he is in camp with nail and bo and tricky nik he might get a better grasp of things.

Chase is a wildcard I know but he seems engaged at all times and brought some offensive drive I did not expect for a period.

Did McDavid get injured from that Virtanen hit? Because it sure seems like it.

Nope. According to all reputable sources he is fine.

 

[Joey Moss]

Holy Waltz..

 

[McDeathbyCheerios*]

Slepy will get better as the pre season goes. Imo

 

[Joey Moss]

God Gene is annoying with this Pronger BS when talking about Nurse.

 

[Frank the Tank]

Slepy will get better as the pre season goes. Imo

I agree as the different ice dimensions are the largest hurdle for him right now. That it's why I feel he will be AHL bound with the hope of calling him up in a few months.

 

[Mcnotloilersfan]

what a beast of a shift by Drai

 

[OnTheBrink]

Drai besting that shift… no finish from line mates.

 

[Joey Moss]

How did Waltz even play in the WHL last year? Guy looks like a junior B player.

 

[OnTheBrink]

Ehlers teammates bury their chances.

 

[bzur]

Wow rough start again.. poor coverage and play in our zone and can't seem to accomplish anything in the offensive zone. Lots of game left though and I have to say I've liked Betker a lot so far. He has some tools

 

[McDoused]

What a meaningless game. Oh well I guess it will make Winnipeg feel better.

 

[ChaoticOrange]

Not real sure. I'd probably send him and Bouchard home after this game.

Edit: Poor rush from Waltz causes a 3 on 1. Ugh.

 

[Spawn]

Ehlers is putting on a show right now.

 

[K1984]

God Gene is annoying with this Pronger BS when talking about Nurse.

He's annoying with literally everything. The guys hockey knowledge is at a water cooler level at best, so he covers with ****** jokes and personal anecdotes about the players.

I swear, if a replay after a commercial break is preempted by a story about what a particular player ate for dinner the night before I will flip.

 

[NedPlimpton]

Gene is god.

 

[ChaoticOrange]

Betker just murdered some poor kid.

 

[Spawn]

Lol gotta love the different perspectives from the broadcast team.

Jets guy: "Viscous cross check from Beteker"
Gene: "Looked like incidental contact"

Crap teams generally get crap coverage.

Honestly Gene is usually the best thing about Oilers games. Because there's almost no enjoyment otherwise.
