GDT: Game 41: Gimme a Dozen - Kraken @ Oilers 7pm - SN1

[TheNumber4]

ALL THE WOOT!! Papa is back.

Nice. Scoring lots is back on the tables boys.

I would of gave Skinner the night off. I know our schedule is lax but just my opinion.

Knob addressed this in a presser. Said overall, January is a very light month, both in opposition and schedule. Later on in the year it gets tougher, and they are looking down the road.

 

[TheNumber4]

Skinner starting.


------------------------------------------------------

Correct on Kane, it explains his stick handling issues.

Thought he took a shot block last game?

Trying to block a shot with your hand is always a bad idea. Unless you have a goalie glove. hehe

For sure. Ask Nurse.

 

[tiger_80]

Go Oilers! I really hope Connor Brown scores tonight..

Are you his wife? He can go without points the rest of the year as long as the Oilers win. lol.

 

[tardigrade81]

LFG boys!

It's easy. Just keep playing the way you do!

Trigger their inner Tyler, and play like a warrior. They would go undefeated

 

[tiger_80]

Put him on LTIR until the playoffs, or are we going to be the nice guy again?

Stone him and Nurse in March when they are comfortably in the playoffs.

Preach Knob Preach!

 

[FiveFourteenSixOne]

12. Cave (Honourable mention to Dave Hunter)
13. Linesman
14. MacTavish
15. Nilsson
16. Buchberger
17. Kurri
18. Simpson

There might be a winner or two in there

18 has to be Ethan Moreau. Long time Oiler and former captain!

 

[McFlyingV]

Oh love to see Gagner back in. That 4th line just looks so much more dangerous on the cycle with his playmaking. The man doesn't have much for wheels, but he's all effort and has a ton of playmaking skill still in the tank.

 

[CornKicker]

6-2 oilers, daccord gets sent back to reality

 

[snag]

f*** me....

Surprisingly I thought these two clowns did a good job against the Leafs, but they are total wild cards. With these two you're either going to have them sit on their whistles the whole game before calling something irrelevant in a key moment of the game, or call absolutely everything in a horrifically unbalanced manner.

They're both just the worst. Nice to see that Lee is 38, hopefully he calls it a day sooner than later, takes his pension, and stops ruining NHL hockey games.

Kerry Fraser reffed until 58. Hopefully Lee retires or gets run out long before then

Putting a healthy Gagner > playing an injured Kane imo. No wonder Kane was sulking.

I thought they swallowed their whistles. Which isn't the absolute worst thing that can happen but there sure weren't many calls.

Ah yes, pouting.

 

[ujju2]

Why would they ever risk the streak on those awful navy jerseys?

I mean because they're just unis? I'm not sure the players mind, though if it comes to an end, you have to wonder about them going forward.

 

[Kerberos]

Feels like McDavid and the PP is overdue for a big game. Would be nice to hang 7+ on these guys and get the offense clicking again.

Just take a peak at the shcedule for the last 3rd of the season. Its brutal.
Skinner is going to get plenty of nights off.

Its also why I think the team will bring in a 1A/1B goalie near the trade deadline.

 

[TopShelfGloveSide]

Gagner always comes back in the lineup like an animal. He probably scores tonight.

As has been reported many many times the players love those jerseys it’s why the kept choosing them for the playoffs. My guess is they like them because they provide them with own identity as opposed to the stigma attached to the mains

 

[tiger_80]

I hate beating the kraken because they only have 3 fans and produce a measly 2 page gdt to read through after the oilers win

The Shames are coming on Saturday. Would be fun if the Oilers spank them shitless.

The Whoberdeau has about as many points as Foegele and is -12. What a trade.
