GDT: Game #29 • "House of Horrors" • Oilers @ Wild • Dec 12 2022 • 6:00 PM • SN1/CHED

[Drai Fi]

Nurse is 8th amongst all D men in even strength points over the last 5 years.

Ahead of guys like Chabot, Karlsson, McAvoy, Hamilton, Pietroangelo, etc.

Guy plays some of the most difficult matchups at even strength and produces.

Nurse would easily get 8m+ in free agency. He’s definitely not perfect but there’s not many d-men who are asked to do everything he does

 

[Bryanbryoil]

Toughness comes from the team, not any one guy. Maybe we should bring Steve MacIntyre out of retirement.

So what happens when guys like Kulak try to act tough with Reaves? Who scares anyone on the Wild if they start giving McDavid the business?

Oh absolutely, Nurse is good player not debating that at all.

Just found it funny Greenway of people would chirp him and about him making too much money lol...

If I was Nurse I would have told him to get out here with that poverty mentality. Maybe in a couple of seasons you can buy yourself something nice lol

 

[Behind Enemy Lines]

Riveting story and analysis... by that I mean telling us that the Oil have been getting support scoring. Now talk of the vestigial organ of modern hockey a one dimensional tough guy.

You skate around him and score.

Who was the Avs' Reaves last year?

 

[nexttothemoon]

Kostin in the top 6 beside McDrai makes too much sense and I've been calling for that for several games now... eventually the coaches will see that but it always takes them a while to see the obvious.

Agreed. The fourth line guys are generally useless. Have a tough guy with one of those spots.

 

[TheNumber4]

Just push out one great period and we could win the season series against the Wild. If that happens, just gift wrap that Cup, it’s ours!

 

[Old Boys Club]

Split up McDrai already you coward

 

[Messrules11]

That was a brutal period. We’ve been awful in Minny since we lost the conference final in ‘91. Why?

 

[TopShelfGloveSide]

Macdermid

Uh MacDermid? In the playoffs Manson is as tough as anyone on our team.

 

[gordonhught]

Players and coaching.

 

[Harry Curry]

A just outcome is the Oilers pulling out a loser point.

Move Ryan to center and sit Shore out in favor of a guy that plays physical and can kick some ass.

 

[KeithIsActuallyBad]

Macdermid

Uh MacDermid? In the playoffs Manson is as tough as anyone on our team.

And the Avs really needed to fight, eh?

I mean, did you see how effective Lucic was?

 

[Sanchez]

Flames lost in a shootout

 

[AddyTheWrath]

Flames lose lol

 

[gordonhught]

Gene should turn around and yell at the guys to stop playing like ass.

 

[snipes]

Please actually give an effort this period

 

[TheNumber4]

Flames lost in a shootout

Talentless hacks couldn’t put up more than 1 goal against the Habs.

 

[OfCorsiDid]

Put Klim with mcdrai

No.

Break up McDrai, they're back to being lazy.

Holloway - McDavid - Hyman
RNH - Draisaitl - Janmark
Yamamoto - Hamblin - Kostin
Ryan - Shore - Puljujarvi

Best team in the league felt the need to have MacDermid last season and brought him back this season.

 

[Tobias Kahun]

Uh MacDermid? In the playoffs Manson is as tough as anyone on our team.

You aware that Kane is injured right?

 

[Broberg Speed]

If we get on the pp Barrie and no Bouchard...
