• The Ducks are one of those teams that have stockpiled a bunch of assets about to boil over. Don't look now, but they've entered the wild card race. But they're young and inexperienced and we have to physically dominate them and break their spirits like the Oilers teams of the decade of darkness.
  
  
• So Nuge just can't play center at all? I didn't want him centering a second line but he can't be a capable "third" line center?

[Bring Back Bucky]

Man popping Skinner back out there in a fourth line role is just ground hog-daying his failure.

 

[Mr Kot]

Ok good proper gdt.

 

[CROTT]

Been busy of late, why is Hyman on the third line?

Skinner is top 6 or bust. That's the style he plays.

 

[9GWG9]

Skinner has to learn how he can support his linemates in place of stick handling and popping shots off.

 

[Drivesaitl]

Would be nice if somebody other than Draisaitl joined in on killing ducks today. Scored two goals last time and we still lost. What an NHL schedule. Ducks two X in a week. I don't even like duck.

 

[WhiskeyEE]

Been busy of late, why is Hyman on the third line?

I recall in a recent interview Knoblauch saying Brown has been playing very well and deserves to be moved up the lineup. So maybe they're trying him there and seeing if Hyman can increase production on line 3.

Yeh Knob said it was a reward for Brown. Also said Hyman down there to help, but he thinks Hyman is a top 6 player and will be Top 6 again. So just some line juggling.

Hoping for Podz-Kap production. That line looks good at times and makes alot of sense, but the results are still lagging.

He’s got to earn it.

He’s making strides.

 

[Ibanez]

[KeithIsActuallyBad]

No coasting today guys.

 

[Davo Ikinzom]

No coasting today guys.

Coast to the third and win it in OT. Absolute cinema.

 

[tardigrade81]

True. There has been some flashes of that lately though. Before his demotion.

 

[KeithIsActuallyBad]

Oh we got good Gene tonight.

 

[Old Boys Club]

Will we see the low-effort Oilers?

I feel like a Podkolzin injury would hurt this team more than any of us would’ve imagined in the summer

 

[Oilslick941611]
