Pre-Game Talk: [GM47] Vancouver Canucks @ Edmonton Oilers | Thur, Jan. 23rd | 6pm | SNP | Thoughts & Prayers

[CalderSchmalder]

Podz on the first line, he is definitely getting better opportunities in Edmonton than he would have gotten here

 

[I am toxic]

Oil lineup without mcdavid is pretty bad, like lottery team bad, very winnable game if they show up..

almost as bad as Buffalo

 

[vancityluongo]

going to the game with my brother who's an oilers fan... low key want to borrow one of his jerseys and bring in a "solidarity for connor" sign or something lmao

"I stand behind Connor McDavid...because if I stand in front of him he might crosscheck me in the face".

if you make it onto the broadcast and show the sign with tears in your eyes, i think you might receive a key to the city. do it.

 

[Bourne Endeavor]

Mission report: Get Draisatl suspended

We'll take down the Oilers by depleting them!

So how long before Garland is challenged to a fight for holding a guy's arm?

I say over/under of 5 minutes in.

I think Oilers are going to be mugging him all night. McBaby needs protection from mean 5'8 160lb thugs lying on top of him after all

 

[CanucksSayEh]

JT will be glued to Drai. The rest of the team needs to be able to beat the rest of the Oilers.

 

[Canuckle1970]

Appointment game. Must see for Looky Lou(s).

More like 5'6"

 

[Hoglander]

More like 5'6"

More like 5'4"

i think their fans might actually take that seriously and not see that you are doing it sarcastically

 

[wonton15]

JT Miller now has two Elias Petterssons to yell at!

Yesterday’s Game

• Very disappointed
• Did not like the practice they had before facing the Sabres

Quinn Hughes

• Don’t stop skating because you have a star with you
• Tried to do too much against the Sabres
• They talked about his performance after the game
• Has been unreal in dealing with everything that’s gone on this season
• Mentally strong

Conor Garland

• It was just a hold
• Nothing will deter him from going into the corners or the front of the net
• Leon Draisaitl is confused where the anger is coming from
• Canucks just need the 2 points

Inconsistency

• Bad body language has started; slamming gates, etc.
• Last game was the most disappointed he’s been in his 2 years
• Let the team know he was disappointed in them
• Doesn’t like their process or practice habits
• With a lead, they stop skating and the defencemen stop shooting
• It’s not one guy, it’s a collective
• Hughes doesn’t have that mental block
• Not learning from mistakes

 

[Rick Rocket]

who's gonna jump Garland?

 

[sting101]

who's gonna jump Garland?

probably Nurse he's about as dumb as they come and will think it's all Garlands fault

 

[vcanuck]

Petey or Garland should crosscheck anybody who gets tangled up with them and claim they're just protecting themselves....
