GDT: What, Me Worry? Edm v Ott - 8 PM

[Drivesaitl]

I look forward to the drink @Drivesaitl will be buying me.

Unfortunately its cheap vodka that they sell in clear plastic bottles at some of these liquor stores. No label or verification of what it is. Maybe wood alcohol. For that reason and to avoid liability I just started a big bonfire with it instead. Then it caused an explosion.

You guys must like my material. heh

Charlie Brown it is. Least he's not Dustbin Neilson pigpen.

Enjoy your 5 week busy stressful vacation. Is everything you do 5? hehe

Hello all

Just want to thank all of the regulars here for the last few weeks. I had major surgery (went incredibly well) on the 22nd of Dec. Of course I didn't miss one bit of Oilers, Team Canada (#$%), and Condors. Nor did I not miss one bit of dialog from any of you. And now in recovery, this place is my saving grace from boredom!

Anyway, appreciate all the conversation and opinion - and knowledge - as always.
Let's keep everything rolling tonight against Sens.
Already 1-0 for us with 5mins providing another GDT.

Thanks again!

 

[RegDunlop]

...
And enjoy your vacation 5, condolences Keith. Guaranteed win now.

This one has me worried that the long break and recent success will result in a complacent game by our Oilers.

They’ve demonstrated in the past that games like this often result in an embarrassing loss usually against a 4th string goalie nobody has ever heard of before.

However this version of the Oilers under the guidance and steady hand of KK and Coffey seem to have found a repetitive steadiness about them. They just go out there and play their game. Even when Pickard is playing he’s been steady.

McDavid starts his quest for 1,000 points and if he could pull that off this season it would be mind blowing.

Connor Brown might score his long awaited first goal of the season against his old team tonight. I’m betting that it happens. If not @Drivesaitl will buy everyone a round of drinks.

Either way we seem to have Korpisalo’s number so if he’s in net I like our chances and odds say we should win.

Great thread as always my friend, you’re like our McDavid, we are in awe of your work and love viewing it, and often don’t really appreciate it till it’s missing. Have a great trip! Hoping for a great game from the boys tonight.

Thx!! The Oilers have had so many breaks this year I figure its my turn. Have to rest up for the playoffs you know.

Wow sorry to hear about the surgery, hope all is well and wish you a speedy recovery!

Thanks very much!
Doing excellent!

 

[Fixed to Ruin]

Feels like a trap game.

However this team has some serious mojo right now.

8-1 Oilers.

 

[FlameChampion]

I can see another HUGE game from 97 tonight

Draisaitl a bit of a Sens killer. He doesn’t like Stutzle getting any ideas.

Pretty sure @Oilers in NS will drink it regardless.

5 months, weeks, minutes or seconds. Depends what it is….

Was thinking the same. Drai goes off tonight.

 

[Duke74]

You're getting out of Dodge at just the right time. The weather turns ass next week

Was thinking the same. Drai goes off tonight.

One can hope. He's due a few dominant games.

 

[Lay Z Boy GM]

I predict we win this game soundly. Not because they’re super confident and looking to blow a bottom feeder out, but because they’re going to stick to the plan, play the right way and get the results they deserve.

I expect a convincing but mature win. I’ll be choked if they take the Sens lightly and lose this one.

 

[KeithIsActuallyBad]

Thanks for the condolences everyone. I got to see my grandmother just after Christmas, and she was still pretty lucid but we all knew this was coming. My dad got a call yesterday basically saying the end was near so to get the news this morning that she was gone was sad but not unexpected. She lived a good long life and I hope she's been reunited with her husband on the other side. She went peacefully in the loving care of the Vegreville hospital so I'm glad she got to go out in the best way possible.

 

[TopShelfGloveSide]

Brownie is going to get a goal… and an assist tonight.

 

[GhostfaceWu]

I thught knob said gagner would be back?

I’m pretty sure he said Gags is good to go but he doesn’t want to mess with the winning lineup.

Pro tip: Don't book a window seat on the plane.

 

[Oilers in NS]

Been dry since my hip replacement. Waiting for leg to get stronger before I have a taste. Lots of ice and snow down this way and I’m not the best on that with good legs and a bad buzz on

 

[5 Mins 4 Ftg]

Pro tip: Don't book a window seat on the plane.

Not on Alaska Airlines anyway!

 

[mkatcherin00]

Flames lost. For some reason, these teams like to copy each other. Hope it's not today.

 

[McJC]

Hopefully the boys break out on the PP this game. Pretty crazy they've been doing this good with the PP cold

 

[Mr Positive]

Think a win today puts us in a playoff spot ?

Yes that's right. St. Louis plays today but we own the tie breaker if they also win.

We play Chicago on Tuesday. So we do have an easy schedule. This is still a test in how we assert ourselves. Ottawa in particular has the talent to be better than what they've shown and are desperate for wins

 

[ConnorNova0929]

Go Oilers! I really hope Connor Brown scores tonight.

 

[tiger_80]

It's been a while since we enjoyed Staios clearing attempts.

I can feel it in my stomach that Brown scores tonight. No wait, that was the Mexican I had last night.

He probably scores quite regularly if he's married. Only 29. lol.
