GDT: WAKE UP, THE SEASON’S STARTED! Oilers v Black Hawks, 8 PM HNIC

[Messrules11]

Perry with an ugly goal, keep em coming

 

[tiger_80]

A young Perry would probably elevate the Oilers over the edge. He was really good in his prime.

 

[nexttothemoon]

Have the floodgates opened now?

 

[yukoner88]

The drive for garbage goals is what got me to fall in love with the oiler, back in the mid 90s

 

[Took a pill in Sbisa]

Pretty sure he was a good figure skater at some point in his youth. I don't think he's ever been know for speed... his shot is the only thing keeping him in the NHL.

I heard he was a quick skater but not a fast skater

 

[tiger_80]

Have the floodgates opened now?

Not until Brown scores!

 

[Tobias Kahun]

If Chicago played like this against Vancouver, Vancouver would've been on the powerplay 6 times already

 

[5 14 6 1]

Nuge never gonna grow into more than what he was in his first four seasons.

Nuge is 30, makes 5.125M and scores 70 points a year. He is what he is and a good player not sure what you want, yes struggling a bit to start

 

[snipes]

We should get Maroon at the deadline

 

[Davo Ikinzom]

We should get Maroon at the deadline

We must target every washed up former Oiler.

Yeah, he’d be the 3rd best player on this team in his prime.

 

[Bring Back Bucky]

Covid killed so many things. You can’t get a donair past 9 pm on a weekend here anymore.

 

[K1984]

I heard he was a quick skater but not a fast skater

He has good edges and strong on his feet, but not a burner.

People need to calm the f*** down as it pertains to Skinner. I don’t know what he’s done other than commit the sin of having a bad pre-season, but the hate for him is way, way over the top.

More about getting all the olds.

Every grizzled vet we can. Might as well run with it.

 

[McTedi]

We should get Maroon at the deadline

Got Perry, same same. Maroon probably a little tougher.

Good hustle Hymo

He will hit his stride. So far it's feeling like he's a half step behind but he will find a way to clean that up

 

[harpoon]

I'm watching the Chicago feed and the colour commentor yelled OH NO when the goal went in.

Professional stuff.

Is that like Hrudey and Ron McLean openly cheering for the Hawks in intermission because Luke Richardson is a nice guy? Someone should have slapped McLean in the head when he pulled up his pants to show his socks. f*** that guy for multiple reasons.

 

[tiger_80]

Yeah, he’d be the 3rd best player on this team in his prime.

I guess Tkachuk would be a good comparable. Maybe a bit slower, but also a better scorer.

 

[Tobias Kahun]

I guess boarding isnt a penalty anymore either

We should get Maroon at the deadline

The last thing the Oilers need is to get slower

He just needs to score. People will shut up if he produces. Just like with Perry... score and hit and you are fine... otherwise you are going to get heat. It's exactly what fans always do.

taylor hall still got offence ngl

guy was skating in mud against Winnipeg. Can only comment on what I see. Didn't watch the pre season.

Can he stay healthy for more than 40 games though?
