Pre-Game Talk: Edmonton vs Vegas

[29Beast97Mode]

A lot of people around here were deep throating Colorado management because of all the moves they made, while trashing Edmonton management. But here we are, Colorado out in the first round, losing to a team missing their #1 dman and best scorer (who Edmonton beat last year with both) and the Oilers are moving on.

And Blackwood rocking that .892 and a .833 in game 7 lol.

And, the guy they traded got a Hattrick against them in game 7 lol

 

[Mr Positive]

Good thing this game didn't start at 8.

 

[KlefDown]

that’s crazy, another game 7 blown

 

[CageRage]

I just had a dreadful flashback while tuning into the Jets/Blues game. I really don't watch much on CBC since the canned Cherry but as I'm watching the play by play guy was just awful. I'm recognizing John Garret doing the color but the other guy...who is he? The only thing at the time I could compare it to was the voice of a muppet. I'm just thinking who the hell is this guy, CBC is scraping the bottom of the barrel. They then come back from commercials and sure enough it's the old Oilers guys they kicked to the curb. Just bloody awful. I stopped watching the Oilers feed that year and was watching out of town broadcast because of it and really purged the memory banks until now....HAHAHA...

As for the Vegas series.... The first thing that concerns me is the liberties the Vegas D has taken with our skilled guys in the past. Kane, Frederick and Perry have to really lean on these guys and make it clear this isn't the way things are going down this time. Our big dogs are healthy to this point and we need to keep it that way.

Harnarayan Singh, sounds like a bad AI voiceover.

I don't like the Jets, but I am ok with the Blues suffering a demoralizing loss in game 7

Broberg and Holloway out.

Both east series get an extra day off between games 4 and 5.

I’ll take the extra off to start our series. I’m just thankful we aren’t playing back to backs or 3 in 4 days. This schedule feels like a win.

Yup. The players will tell you they like playing every other day because they get in a rhythm. And for fans that's the best as well.

 

[M Ace]

Where is Skinner?
Mr. R2-D2!

 

[FlameChampion]

I swear, this org is stupid enough to do it.

Yeah the organization is dumb enough to do it.

Even if its misdirection and it probably is, I wish the Oilers would stop doing this stuff. We generally don’t get going until game 3. Lets focus on getting ready and starting on time for game 1 rather than playing mind games. The mind games probably work better on ourselves than the opposition.

 

[KlimasLoveChild]

Dude, you are a sensitive soul.

Ok fella. You don’t have preferences of your own apparently. Just give me what ever you have kind of guy. The broadcast is garbage and the fact you didn’t even refute it kind of backs my point.

 

[ahmedou]

Flames fans right now. Changing teams every series. To cheer against the Oilers

 

[MikeS24]

If coach starts skinner, I hope to God him and Swiss cheese are in the unemployment line after the playoffs

930 start is so stupid!

Jesus, I have to get a pregame nap for it. 1040 Puck drop here and up at 330 AM

 

[CantHaveTkachev]

I'm shocked the game on Saturday is at 7PM, considering the Leafs aren't playing that night

 

[Mr Positive]

I'm liking that games start at 7 or 7:30 at least

I'm shocked the Leafs don't have a Saturday game at all. Can't remember the last time that happened

After the first one you will be able to sleep for 6 hrs after work and snooze for an hour after the game ends.

 

[FlameChampion]

930 start is so stupid!

Worse part is 9:30 probably means 9:52

 

[CrazyJoeDavola]

Is this shit about Skinner starting tomorrow actually true? Wtf?

 

[CantHaveTkachev]

no Singh at all for Round 2

 

[Paralyzer]

no Singh at all for Round 2

I don't have enough faith to believe it, but maybe Rogers is listening to the fan bases and not forcing certain play by play guys on their teams if they like the people they already got.
