GDT: Oilers vs Rangers | Friday, Feb 17 - 7pm MT | "There are no coincidences"

[tiger_80]

Oilers come out flying and beat the Rangers handily. You heard it hear first!

Not with Lucic Jr., aka Desharnais sitting in the pressbox.

Oilers vs Rangers on Friday

Another type of Ranger? The Ford Ranger.

And from Ford, the inventor Henry.

Now what else was Henry Ford known for? That's right, assembly lines.

Now where do you find lines similar to the above? Yep - at airport security. And what else do they check for at airport security? Metal.

Metal does what? Conduct electricity. Electricity like a lightning bolt.

Now Usain Bolt was considered by some as fast as a lightning bolt. But before him came Carl Lewis.

And did Carl have a son? You bet he did. In fact, many over the years have called him Carl's son.

Now do you think this is just a coincidence?

A 3 point game in the standings tonight, please and thank you.

 

[Perfect_Drug]

7-3 Oilers

McDavid drops 6 to match his 105 in 56 games from the shortened season.

That allegedly doesn't count cuz despite 2 Vezina goalies and a finalist, that division was easy to score on.

 

[nally]

I actually think playing a good team who is playing well is exactly what this team needs

I just hope the go back to Campbell tonight

 

[KeithIsActuallyBad]

Lots of nostalgia on the first page...

 

[Soundwave]

I just hope the go back to Campbell tonight

Maybe if he didn’t dihearea the bed with a whopping 3 bad goals against last game they could.

I just hope the go back to Campbell tonight

Why should we?

The man laid an absolute ostrich egg last time.

Skinner wasn’t good in Montreal but the team was stupendously bad. Can’t say the same in Campbell’s last game.

Skinner 1W in last 7, also only has 4 wins on the season against playoff teams.

Campbell 9-0-1 in last 10

Campbell wasn't very good vs Ottawa either. We just overpowered them.

Seeing Calgary in such disarray is cathartic.

Seeing Calgary in such disarray is cathartic.

If their GM had not thrown out extensions everywhere in the offseason, they could've had some extremely enticing pieces for the TDL instead of being trapped in several terrible deals.

And for those 6 losses in the last 7, how did the team play?

Believe it or not, teams put more than just their goalie on the ice.

Walsh really is a prick though. He's going to end up screwing Calgary over at some point. With a NMC for Huberdeau they are going to end up having to retain on the guy and trade him to a hand picked team for nothing.

Hate NMC to begin with especially when it's a guy that the team has no history with, but then you add Walsh to the mix and it's a death wish.

They’re the Minnesota Wild of the Pacific.

Just eternal mediocrity.

Weegar and Huberdeau at 50% off would've given them some damn good assets one would have to think.

Oh definitely.

And for that reason I hope everyone that Treliving interacts with has Walsh as their agent.

Exactly. I understood why they were extended but it could've really hastened a possible rebuild instead of dooming themselves to perpetual mediocrity.

Like it’s says, not only tents need pegging!

If Edmonton didn’t have a hockey team this post would be my Stanley Cup win for this season.

I guess similar to Vancouver, Calgary ownership seems to want to avoid a rebuild.

And you know I get that, but then you need to make an adjustment with your coach. I said this the other day in the Elks thread, coaches need to stop coaching to the way they want the team to play. They need to coach to the strengths of the roster. Coaching a way the team physically can't play is never going to work.
