When they win, I hope it’s like the Rapture and the non believers go away.

 

[Jimmi McJenkins]

I like the forwards set up. I would have liked Philp, but that's fine.

 

[jeffff]

The generational healer is back!!

Finally trying Skinner with Mcdavid. Like the forward lines!!

We are going to get slaughtered.

Hill kind of looks like Tobey Maguire with a fake beard.

 

[CycloneSweep]

Vegas hasn’t won a road game yet so it’s an auto loss for us.

 

[FunkyChicken]

Crazy that Hill has a worse save percentage than Skinner but is still 5 and 2.

The Golden Knights are the bizarro world Oilers.

Start every season ripping through the league no matter what, then slowly dwindle off to the point of barely making the playoffs by the end of the year. Kings are kind of the same way.

I'll just patiently wait for one of, or both of Eichel and Stone to be out long term and then watch them struggle to do anything.

They won the cup the year before Florida…

McDavids back already?! WTF.

Thanks.

What did they do the year prior and last season.........

They made the playoffs and took a good Dallas team to Game7?
Year before the won the cup.
Year before that they missed the playoffs right at the end with a ton of injuries, year before that they were in the final 4.

They have only had one season where they missed and one season they barely missed.

Your point?

Re-read the first post.

They tend to start on fire, then fizzle out. Obviously not referring to the Cup year specifically. Not complicated.

Vegas and Oilers are like polar opposite with injuries. Oilers player's injuries seem to turn into shorter duration than original prognosis. Vegas player's injuries end their season.

Well they were generally correct as well. Both can be true.

Vegas has only missed the playoffs once in their existence and it was by 3 points and they've been to the third round and beyond in 3 of their completed 7 seasons. So while true they sometimes fade from a points per game perspective, they've finished well enough more often than not.

Knoblauch "demoting" RNH to the third line while also building something of a third scoring unit out of he, Henrique and Brown is an absolute dream come true. That's how you win games long-term- stressing personal accountability and spreading the wealth.

3 week injury recover, only took McJesus 1 week. 3x faster than mere mortals.

I hope he’s a 100% though. Don’t need to risk anything, the seasons long and playoffs are the priority.

Well I'm finally done reading all the overreactions about the unspecified event that just took place in a country south of the Canadian border on other parts of the internet.

Hopefully the outcome of this game is better than the one against the Devils. Our inability to score can end at any time now!
