GDT: Preseason Games 2 & 3, Oilers Flames in a Double header beer leaguer

[Pip]

Lol these refs.

Clattenburg is a real spark plug.

Showing far more ability with the puck than his junior stats would suggest

 

[Sra1974]

Are you seeing anything to make you believe that his entire NHL career is a mirage and he is a good player?

No clue, it’s like the first game of preseason. This board has gotten all excited over players who look good in preseason and then do f all in the regular season. This board has also totally written players off over small sample sizes. There’s actually a good chance many of you are right, but I’m thinking we need a better sample size, WITH THIS team before he’s tarred and feathered here.

Ekholm-Bouchard
Nurse-Kulak
Gleason-Emberson
Whoever survives a cage match between Stetcher, Brown and Dermott

Kulak doesn’t like playing his off-side.

 

[BlackDogg]

Flames win the first round of the only Cup they’ll be close to sniffing anytime soon, the Preseason Toilet Bowl

Many new inbreds wi be conceived in Calgary tonight

Where old flames are sisters

 

[CycloneSweep]

Because its fully buryable.

Who cares how many years it is.

I think it’s more that it shows some failure in pro scouting that one, he was a target period. And 2 he is a guy the team would want for more than 2 year.

 

[Old Boys Club]

It’s officially joever, they can’t recover from this

A bad player is a bad player. Doesn’t matter what team they are on.

I mean, the finish that led to those junior stats is evident tonight.

But I think there's maybe a player there.

 

[ZJuice]

At 9:56 remaining in the 3rd Cam Moon says “McDavid, a pass in front!” to the rhythm of Banana Boat “seven foot, eight foot bunch!”

Then at 7:16 remaining Mcdavid “goes right down the pipe”

 

[Cloned]

Brown is buryable and this probably forces management to do something sooner rather than later.

Or just play Stecher instead.

 

[McTedi]

If only they had meaningless games to shake the summer rust off...ugh

 

[K1984]

Kulak doesn’t like playing his off-side.

He’s gonna have to get over that if it comes down to it.

The best our defense was all playoff was when Kulak was with Nurse and Broberg on the left side with Ceci. Then Knoblauch changed it purportedly because Kulak “wasn’t comfortable” on his off side. Then defense went right back to shit for the most part immediately in the final.

 

[McTedi]

McD shoots finally...and scores

 

[CycloneSweep]

It’s not rust for Brown, this is simply the player he has been for his career.

 

[sepHF]

Vintage McDavid there

 

[Garbo Man]

McDavid letting the Flames know that if he really wanted too he could just win the game alone

 

[Old Boys Club]

Looking like a Buffalo Calgary cup final this year.

 

[yukoner88]

Meanwhile for myself...

 

[5 Mins 4 Ftg]

Looking like a Buffalo Calgary cup final this year.

I wonder what the odds would be

 

[McTedi]

Adds some size, it would be nice to see him play a wee bit more before I take your word for it.

That’s not allowed.

 

[5 Mins 4 Ftg]

Liking this Clattenburg kid. 3 years maybe an energy 4th liner if he can learn to PK

 

[McHelpus]

Can they sign Shattenkirk already? He is better than all of these dmen.

 

[JeffSkinner53]

Hey Connor scored. Missed that.

 

[McTedi]

Haha, Flamer goalie making some saves
