Let's see.. He hits Hall. Nurse gives him a whack issuing a challenge. He skates away from Nurse and hits Hall after the whistle. What a tough guy Kane is. I'm sure every GM in this league would take Kane over Eberle, amirite insider?

Yes. You are right.

 

[Moskau]

Kane had a decent game until he decides to cower away from Nurse.

Do you really think Nurse has a chance against Kane? Kane would clobber him at this point in their careers. Maybe in a few years Nurse would have the advantage but Kane would make quick work of him currently.

 

[NewBoysClub97*]

that 2nd line had great chemistry for EDM and now Hall and Drai are a perfect match

 

[DraberlyakMcHallkins*]

Cowered. Oh brother..you're a beaut.

I wouldn't say cowered, but it looked like he was ready to go with Hall but wasn't interested in Nurse. Sort of Backes/Kesler-esque to go after the scorer over another tough guy

Nurse has got about 10-15 lbs on him and a ton of fighting experience. Watch him fight Hunter Smith. it'd be a good tilt if Kane didn't want the smaller guy

 

[McAsuno]

Yes. You are right.

Yeah, he sure proved it with his "great" game tonight. The useless player managed to produce.

Then why wouldn't Kane fight him? But he was willing to fight Hall..

You are understating Nurse as a fighter.

 

[leaflover]

that was a short lived lead.

 

[TalkingProuder]

Kane > Eberle. Sorry.

Hall whacked him from behind. I think that would make anyone "want to go"

Hahahaha, then why didn't Kane fight him? Nurse is tough as well. Try watching his fights?

 

[McPuritania]

That was kind of the point of the thread. This is Buffalo's 2nd season playing with their top picks and they are as ****** as Edmonton is who is in year 5 of theirs. Edmonton is clearly the better team as far as talent and chemistry is concerned at this point but they had a 4 year head start.

Thread was made by a Boston fan anyways iirc.

So what? That doesn't prove a damn thing other than big sample sizes are nifty.

We don't know what the future holds. The Sabres might be in the same spot 3 years from now, the Oilers might be a playoff team next year, hell this year with how bad the Pacific is. Both teams could suck, or just the Oilers. We don't know, and that thread was a giant waste of time. The only point that thread has was to belittle the Oilers.

 

[Frank the Tank]

Nilson was very good. Looks like the talbot trade was a waste with Nilson there all along. Also, why is Griffen Reinhart scratched (considering the price paid to get him) every game would've ben cool to face his brother.

Nilsson was never there all along. He was acquired by Chiarelli as well. With Talbot and him I am quite comfortable with the Oilers goaltending situation. Better than still relying on Scrivens in any capacity.

Reinhart doesn't have to clear waivers, whereas Davidson does and has earned a spot in the line-up. Once again, depth is a nice thing to start building.

I think you knew these answers, however, and I guess you continue to try and find a way to get the digs in after a 3 game winning streak, especially because the same opponents have rolled the Canucks as of late.

 

[Beerz]

If you recall i called him useless when he doesn't produce...so keep eating that popcorn.

 

[McAsuno]

so what does that make Evander Kane when he doesn't produce? A fake tough guy?

 

[McPuritania]

Nurse doesn't have a chance against Kane? Really? Nurse is a pretty tough kid. Flames fans said the same thing about Hunter Smith, and Nurse took everything Smith gave him, and bloodied Smith's face to boot.

 

[karnige]

Kane > Eberle. Sorry.

hall > kane? not sure I get the post

Don't bother. Reinhart's in the AHL and Nilsson started at the same time as Talbot.

Even a casual observer would know that.

 

[McPuritania]

Nurse was whacking him all the way up the ice, and Kane had no time for him.

 

[TalkingProuder]

Because Hall had already boarded Reinhart and punched Kane. After the Sekera elbow to Eichel, Buffalo will be ready in March.

 

[NewBoysClub97*]

You can tell he's good, but I did not find Eichel impressive. I barely noticed him the entire game besides that weak goal Nilsson let in. He is a nice looking skater though. Very fast.

 

[Aceonfire*]

"Buffalo will be ready"

Gear up boys were going to war.

And Eichel ran into Sekera's elbow. He should be more careful.

 

[McAsuno]

Yeah after two guys tripped Hall which lead to no call. Reinhart sure went down pretty easily. What a soft player

Eichel ran into Sekera's elbow, but alright?
And ready for what, exactly? Shouldn't they be ready every game? Why wait until March? Lol?

 

[McPuritania]

Looked like Reinhart boarded himself imo.

And I'm sure we'll be terrified about that game.

This is ridiculous.
