I will try to be polite this time. Good to be back. Go OILERS!

So you DO still exist. Why hello! Welcome back.

 

[tardigrade81]

We have a chance if Skinner manages to post above .900 and the defense doesn’t fold like a cheap tent (this will be a difficult feat)

Even then. I’m nervous lol

 

[Bring Back Bucky]

7-1 good guys.
Cousin Connor 2
Nurse
Skinner 2
Drai
Henrique

 

[Drivesaitl]

Things aren't looking so good for the Kaiser a century later either.

If the players bring even 1/2 the energy that is in this GDT already, (beginning from puck drop, of course), they will be more than ok.

We can’t lose on Dave Browns birthday!

Dave Brown never lost. LFG.

 

[OiledUp]

It was such a great feeling coming back from 2-9-1 last season they're going 1-10-1 this year to feel even better. Will the win come tonight?

Only after they fire Knob and hire McDavids Pee Wee coach

 

[Drivesaitl]

Time to sow some Oats Oilers.

Oat Willie is back!

Only after they fire Knob and hire McDavids Pee Wee coach

This year we're firing Ryan or Perry or why not both?

 

[MoontoScott]

Oilers win tonight, just like they did last season after being embarrassed in the season opener.

Edit-- after 2 game poor start in the 2023-24 season.

 

[5 Mins 4 Ftg]

Oilers win tonight, just like they did last season after being embarrassed in the season opener.

Last season they lost Game 2 at Home to Vancouver.

Last season they lost Game 2 at Home to Vancouver.

My bad--it was game #3 where they really rebounded against the Predators after an embarrassing 2 game start.

 

[DavidHasselhoffsFist]

Why'd you leave the ketchup on the table?

The first thing Connor asks Lauren when he gets home after the win tonight

I thought I told you to empty the dishwasher before you went to the game.

Hippie newspaper!

 

[FunkyChicken]

Stetcher injured?
Seems strange to dress Dermott on his off-wing in front of him.

Let’s hope history doesn’t repeat this Game 2!

Pickard with the start.

 

[Senor Catface]

Dermott seeing himself playing with Nurse.

 

[oXo Cube]

Definitely feels like its gonna be one of those nights where the Oilers dominate shot share 38-9 and lose the game 3-1

 

[Mr Kot]

I honestly wouldnt mind seeing nurse finally as the 7th d for once, why keep forcing him at 2nd pair? just finally admit he's not good and play him as we should be, very little.

Nurse/Dermott and Kulak/Emberson are more like 3A and 3B d pairings and Knob probably thinks the same

I think Pickard has a good game, and Stu shits the bed Sunday and Picks becomes the #1.. just wishful thinking

I'm going to troll @Drivesaitl a wee bit here and predict his boy Jeff Skinner will get the Oilers their first goal of the season.

Dave Brown never lost. LFG.

What is it with Browns playing in Edmonton? Dave Brown, Mike Brown, Connor Brown, (hopefully not) Josh Brown. That is a lot of Browns!

and Skinner also with the shutout. You heard it here first.

 

[dem]

Skinner lost his net on the first game of the year…

 

[Duke74]

Chi had no problem handling the Jets last night

Not going to be an easy game

Hopefully the Oilers think the way you do.

Oh god, we got the cleveland browns curse by proxy of all these browns.
