GDT: Game #20: Oilers @ Sens: 5 PM - SNW

[sepHF]

Nuge just needed to play with an elite playmaker to score

 

[BlackDogg]

Nuge getting tipsy.

 

[Behind Enemy Lines]

Derek Ryan having a solid game. Nice dish converted by Nugent Hopkins

Also 75% in face-off dot

Gee thanks for being my constant proof reader. I guess no emotive comments come from fans ever in relation to sports.

Not trying to proof read at all. You make so many posts saying the same thing that it’s impossible to peruse the board without noticing. The inconsistencies stand out. What can I say.

He was a churchmouse on the roadtrip and maybe a bad look after the Leafs game or Habs game where we could've used a spark from him and got none.

False. I missed most of the Habs game (box score says only two hits) but he was hitting in the Leafs game for sure. I commented on it in the GDT. They only credited him with 4 hits in that game but he had more. For perspective the rest of the forwards combined had four. He’s been consistently physical. At least give him that.

Must be a lot of Oiler fans in Ottawa. There’s been a noticeably loud cheer every time they’ve scored.

I’m going to have to agree with @Spawn. Emberson is rounding into what could be a good, serviceable player. It’s a relief to see after what I felt was a very shaky pre-season. But he’s no Cody Ceci. Not yet anyway.

Fair enough, Ceci wasn't anything special and we will need a player better than Ceci and Emberson coming in to round out the D anyway.

I didn't realize the Sens sucked so much TBH

 

[TheNumber4]

LOL. Sens can't catch a break.

They've been stuck in the mediocre middle of the league for years. Around .500 hockey. It feels like 3/4 the league is there

More game 7 points than any other Oiler.

Just wait till he plays with Josh Brown

 

[Jimmi McJenkins]

Beauty goal from Ryan and Nuge, they both needed that.

The Oilers just making the sens basically quit is great

 

[CrazyJoeDavola]

Pooshart just gets walked at will. Man is he horrific at rush defense

 

[TheNumber4]

If you want another Mr. Game7, we could trade for Edmundson. Who I have time for.

Cmon Skinner. Shoulda passed that to Bouch instead of the turnaround shot.

 

[Sanchez]

Janmark getting held there

 

[TopShelfGloveSide]

Lol I get it’s 5-1 and you want to go home but you have to call that.

Incoming Hattie?

 

[Jimmi McJenkins]

I like Emberson's physical play. Some of his more open ice hits remind of the ones Matt Benning would throw

 

[CanadasTeam99]

Janmark getting held there

Clear as day. Sens just running around silly.

Speaking of I saw him play on Saturday. He's currently on the Marlies.

Matt Benning with a brain.

Yup, similar size and similar bite in his game but a better skater from what I recall on Benning.

 

[brentashton]

Push the reverse jinx to its limits and insult Josh Brown

Insult Phil Pritchard and then we’re talking.

 

[Jimmi McJenkins]

Matt Benning with a brain.

That's a good description, but Emberson still makes some decisions sometimes though lol

 

[dssource]

Imagine paying 8.25M for Ullmark's .828

Never thought he was a good goalie. Bruins hid a lot of his faults and were smart to move on.
