He deserves to stay up in my opinion. Should be the 7th guy. Flame me lol.

I don’t think he’s bad in small doses. He makes the simple, obvious play a refreshing amount for someone on this team.

Problem is the air head screw ups with the puck that almost single handedly wipe out any and all of the good.

Among the worst jerseys ever imo:

Well if there's ever a game where it's okay to be missing three of your expected top 10 players going into the season, it' sa game vs. the Wild which is a guaranteed loss regardless of who plays.

 

[Jimmi McJenkins]

This, always this.

Imagine going into LTIR for Josh Brown.

 

[bone]

always take the under in Oil-Wild games...even now that the Wild are red-hot and have a Kaprisov

Not necessarily since they seem to be automatic for 4-5 on us each time. Usually on on 20 or less shots.

 

[guymez]

Remember when Darnell got hit in the head with the puck and played exceptionally well for a good stretch?

Reaves might’ve done us a favour.

Should I feel guilty for laughing at this?

Seriously though...really glad Nurse is okay.

 

[McShogun99]

Moneypuck gives us a 59% chance of winning. If people are worried about models and AI taking over, based on this, its going to take a while.

Scheduled loss regardless of how good or bad either team is.

The bold isn’t true.

The Oilers wildly outscore the opposition with McDavid and Draisaitl together over the past 3 seasons and McDavids GA numbers actually go down. Draisaitls increase marginally but his GF/60 sky rockets.

Well I stand corrected. Maybe it’s better now than it used to be. Or maybe they play so much that it feels like they get scored on a lot.

This since the first lockout. Exactly 82 games and 129 points for the Wild. That would be tied fourth most points all time if looking at it as a teams record for a season.

Well honestly I have no idea what Dermott brings. Hes bad and hes vanilla.

Browns bad but at least he brings something else.

Still baffles me that this is what JJ came up with.

 

[Jimmi McJenkins]

He deserves to stay up in my opinion. Should be the 7th guy. Flame me lol.

No he doesn't at all. He's getting a $1M a year for the next 2 years after this, that's more than enough.

I’m part comedic and part superstitious. You can laugh all you want, I’m not judging.

Y

Can we stop stacking the top line please?

3 of our top winger options are out.

 

[JeffSkinner53]

Keep Skinner in the top 6. Hes the type of player you either play in the top 6 or don't bother playing.

 

[Jimmi McJenkins]

Can we stop stacking the top line please?

I would agree, but with missing personnel, it makes sense because they can dominate together or get shifts with other guys to spread them around.

From the other perpective,

56 points in 82 games. So better than San Jose last year, but easily bottom 3 every year.

 

[Bryanbryoil]

I like the additions of Caggiula and Brown. It definitely makes us a grittier team.

I guess. Brown just can fight and is tall, we need to dispense with him being more than that. I'd call him a Coke Machine, but those are actually good at fighting.

 

[Reasonable Oil Fan]

we win 7-2

 

[TopShelfGloveSide]

I didn’t like Brown at all at first last game but I stopped noticing him. Quiet minutes for a depth D is good minutes.

You stopped noticing because they stopped playing him.

 

[Mr Kot]

So tired of bad retreads, please bring up people who actually want to play please

 

[Tobias Kahun]

You stopped noticing because they stopped playing him.

This isn’t true.

 

[TopShelfGloveSide]

I mean he logged 11 minutes and spent 5 in the box. When did they stop playing him.

I love "Throwing Shade" Nurse lol.
