GDT: Preseason Game 6, Canucks at Oilers beer leager. Sportsnet 7PM

[Tobias Kahun]

McDavid's going at like 10%

 

[North]

Drai and Connor are playing at about 50%.

 

[CycloneSweep]

Not especially impressed with any of the auditions on D this late into camp. Thought Emberson would show better, honestly but he's also only had 30 NHL games. Skinner (F) also looks.. not great. Arvidsson at least shows some speed and a semblance of a defensive conscience.

We also haven’t been able to see Emberson with Nurse.

 

[Bank Shot]

Desharnais got beat wide by Corey Perry of all people.

I think by the end of the season we will all agree it was a good move by the Oilers to walk away from $2 million per year.

 

[GreeningOil]

We lost all of our speed and pace in the offseason....

If you feel like they are meh tonight, remember that we don’t have Ekholm, Bouchard, Nurse, Nugent-Hopkins, Hyman, and Kane lol.

A lot of those guys have the missing ingredients lol

 

[5 Mins 4 Ftg]

Judging by the announcers.

Anytime a canucks player gets a penalty they're surprised.

I see where the fanbase gets it from.

It’s Vancouver. They are professionals at victimhood.

 

[KCC]

Drai and Connor are playing at about 50%.

Yup. Just trying to get their legs and stay healthy until the season starts. Lol

 

[BlackDogg]

Looks like there will be riots if the Canucks win. Or lose

 

[oilers4life5]

I want to see more of new Skinner.

 

[North]

Stecher is showing well. I also like Dermott’s mobility.

 

[rboomercat90]

f*** - first Rybelsus now Jublia….

WTF was that? Those drug commercials just getting more shameful.

its P.R.E.S.E.A.S.O.N

 

[oilers4life5]

Sign Dermott

 

[5 14 6 1]

I like Embersons game, moves the puck quickly

 

[JeffSkinner53]

I think Dermott has earned himself a contract

 

[iCanada]

its P.R.E.S.E.A.S.O.N

Yeah idk, like as long as we don't get Laine'd we doing great tbh.

 

[Old Boys Club]

Sign dermott and shoot j brown into the sun

 

[OfCorsiDid]

Idk how that wasn't a trip on Arvidsson

 

[Bryanbryoil]

I think Dermott has earned himself a contract

Steady. Also like Gleason's last pass to Connor. He has talent but some flaw(s) must be keeping him out of the NHL.

 

[Frank the Tank]

Desharnais got beat wide by Corey Perry of all people.

I think by the end of the season we will all agree it was a good move by the Oilers to walk away from $2 million per year.

Desharnais, Broberg, and Holloway were all good value, depth players at their previous salaries. Canucks and Blues deciding to give them big raises reduces their value significantly on a cap league

True

Our #1 d pairing, consisting of the first unit pp quarterback and best 2-way defenseman on the team, our #1 goal scorer, and our best 2 way forward on the team

Add in McDavid and Draisaitl are on cruise control, against a team sour and hungry to avenge the playoff elimination, and this game means next to nothing in regards to what will happen in the regular season

 

[oilers4life5]

Stecher is showing well. I also like Dermott’s mobility.

I like both!!

 

[Oilslick941611]

judging by the people in this thread there will be riots if the Oilers loose. My god, fine form from some in here.

 

[Sanchez]

These Nucks homers suck!

I don't think even the sun deserves to be around that black hole.
