Time for Ullmark to stand on his head, our PP to keep sucking ass and Stu to give up 1 or 2 softies.
I’m missing this scheduled loss. Heading out for dinner with friends then off to see the Boss at Rogers!
500 here we come!!!

Enjoy.
Got to see Bruce last spring here in PHX. His on stage “crew” numbered 18 musicians! It was a good show. The saxophonist is Clarence Clemons’ nephew, but you’d swear it’s the big guy himself out there. Little Stevie is showing his age, appeared tired at our show. In true Bruce fashion though, it was a 2-1/2 hour show.

I'm reading Springsteen's autobiography right now. Avoided it for a while (I thought Bruce's Broadway musical thing was a definite sign that he had lost his mind), but so far it's a really good read.
Okay, so after the disaster in Montreal, what can we confidently say about the Oilers @ Sens' game tomorrow?:
-- Ullmark, who has an .890 on the season, will suddenly look like Plante-meets-Hasek and post at least a .950
-- Stu Skinner will play half a great game, but will inevitably let in one (or two) very soft, stoppable goals, ending with a sub.-900
-- The Oilers will need to score at least 4 -- probably 5 -- goals. Per their season shooting average, that will require about 80 shots on goal.
Conclusion: The Oilers will win if they get 80+ shots on goal.

Unfortunately he’s a left winger only. Wields a decent stick though.

Would love to see them shake up the powerplay and demote either RNH or Hyman at evens.
What I see them doing- going McDrai with Hyman then RNH as the 2C.

While I dont disagree with you, it’s 2 games back to back on the road and a small amount of travel last night.
Zero time to practice new looks.
Coach has a predilection to stay status quo.
I suspect the only modification we see is the McDrai line being resurrected and played right from the start of the game - break glass in case of emergency.
Dont agree with that approach but it’s what I expect.

Sometimes miracles
They should show up tonight, I doubt that those.
Also give Josh Brown like 25 minutes tonight to really hammer the point home.
