I might put some money down on a Jake Neighbours goal. That kid seems to love playing the Oilers. Alberta born (Airdrie) and former Oil King. Blues will be tired having travelled from Winnipeg last night and the Oilers seems to have the flu bug going around the room. Might be lots of goals tonight.

Blues have lost 4/5 games but they beat us just two weeks ago. Hard to call any of these games as its based on which team will want it more. Blues have to start putting W's together, Oilers should be concerned about getting their game back on a roll after a solid game against Kings.

Last night was backup, Hofer.

Blues should be tired though.

Ah ok wasn’t sure thx. I’ve tuned out from a lot of the other league games this year as Bettman continues the long slow death march to my interest in his shitty league.

Fearless Prediction: Oilers 3 Blues 2. And if Connor Brown scores I will make naked snow angels outside of Rogers.

Love the earlier start time. Need retribution on these guys from the last game.
On behalf of people going to the game though this is a really early weekday start after the city got hit with a huge dump of snow and the City still hasn't been clearing the roads. Took 40mins yesterday to go what would usually take 20mins.

This is a ridiculous start time for working people to go to the game. With the start time just being manipulated to create a double header on the tube I guess.

I don’t think it’s that awful. Plus anthems and pre-game shenanigans it’s probably a 6:45-6:50 start. That’s fairly close to when you’d be getting in if it was a 7 pm start.

If it was 5 then yeah that’s downright silly.

630 is money. In bed close to 10.

I like the timing of the start. I like to listen to postgame, and many times I fall asleep during it, so this suits me quite well.

As to the result, I really expect us to win.

- there is the "revenge" factor
- the Blue played last night, and had to fly here. Not like it was in Calgary.
- we played a good game 2 nights ago, and hopefully they use the same recipe

X Factor will be the flu bug and it's effect on us.

And what the hell. My turn to predict a Connor Brown goal tonight. I think it's prediction # 325. However, I will NOT be doing any naked snow angel shenanigans if it happens. I can't imagine the trauma for someone seeing me out there like that.
