[94 Oil Drops]

Sucks Drais out but as long as it’s short term. They get by Van even if he’s out

Yeah, sit him for the rest of the night and go from there. It wouldn't shock me if he came back for game 2.

 

[Captain Fantastic]

Panel is trash

 

[CycloneSweep]

Both these teams are looking rusty. Oilers should be sharper in the third

Maybe. It’s young to be tough without Draisaitl.

 

[CupofOil]

This is not new. Rinse and repeat.

They're absolutely dreadful. How are the Oilers going to win a Cup with Nurse-Ceci playing meaningful minutes?

 

[McTedi]

Quit panicking. We don't know what happened. Even if it's groin, he could be back in a couple of weeks.

Thanks doc lol

 

[OfCorsiDid]

I have some dark thoughts. Maybe we could hire Tanya Harding as a skating coach.

Maybe we can convince them he's russian and needs to go back for mandatory military service?

 

[K1984]

Am I crazy for thinking a back tweak is a best case scenario?

I’ve had my back randomly go on me and it takes you out for 24 hours but no more really.

 

[McJadeddog]

If Drai is out, cup run is over, full stop

 

[VainGretzky]

He looked like he had problems breathing and they were checking his ribs.

Yea just seen that

 

[Pavel10]

It looked like he said soenthing about his back.

 

[Whoshattenkirkshoes]

Can’t believe this shit right now. So I won’t. Drai will be back for the 3rd. Just had to stretch it out.

I think it's bad

 

[Mav3rick07]

Maybe, just maybe Draisaitl will come out to start the third ?

 

[CycloneSweep]

Quit panicking. We don't know what happened. Even if it's groin, he could be back in a couple of weeks.

Season could be over in a couple weeks.

 

[Oilhawks]

Is Friedman even capable of taking and not looking and sounding smug?

I'm not sure he is.

 

[Captain Fantastic]

Let's just wait for the info on Drai!!! All this damn guessing..F

 

[Ibanez]

Drai didn't look worried or upset which is a good sign.

He looked annoyed for sure

 

[foshizzle]

By the way- Ceci is one of the worst defensemen in the league against the rush. If the Oilers get by Vancouver- Colorado will feast on him- like they always do.

 

[BlackDogg]

Someone jinxed this game dammit

 

[BoldNewLettuce]

Snu snud pelvis

 

[tiger_80]

Season could be over in a couple weeks.

Well, what happens happens. The Oilers are up two goals. They still have McDavid, RNH, Hyman, Bouchard, Ekholm.

 

[Drivesaitl]

Drai is never out this long. Doesn't look good.

f***ing Stuart Skinner. this game is 4-0 without him goofing up on both Vancouver goals and taking a penalty. Same period. jebus.

people wonder why I don't trust this goalie at all.

Also maybe McD could wake up in this game. He hasn't had a good game against Canucks all season.

 

[GMofOilers]

Might be back after watching all that

 

[North Cole]

Is it his back?

Carried the 1st period too hard.

I think he will be okay. Gazdic is on glue, no need to rush him to 4-1. Knob shrugged, so he doesn't seem to upset

 

[29Beast97Mode]

If Drai is out, cup run is over, full stop

Am I a joke to you?

 

[CycloneSweep]

Second goal is on Nurse and Ceci.
