Post-Game Talk: I 8 3 hot dogs

[9GWG9]

Holy floodgates Batman! Love the Elkhom clapper of course Brown strikes again.

I chose wisely. He’s not putting up much of a fight.

 

[Oilhawks]

Yeah. Us likely losing Bouchard happened way before, when we prioritized Tyson Barrie over development of a better internal youngster.

Losing Bouchard? What are you talking about?

 

[VainGretzky]

I would go

Drai-McDavid-Hyman
Kane-Nuge-Henrique
Foegele-McLeod-Perry
Janmark-Carrick-Brown

Holloway over Janmark eventually

Ekholm-Bouchard
Nurse-Stecher
Kulak-Desharnais

Mcleod- McDavid -Hyman
Foegele- Draisaitl - Kane
Janmark- Nuge -Perry
Carrick Henrique. Brown
all 4 lines can produce

That was so far before, that there are 300x ways to free up money for Bouchard since then. And it’s not even a fait accompli he won’t be signed, anyways.

Are we playing the 6 degrees of Kevin Bacon , hockey contracts version?

 

[TopShelfGloveSide]

Yeah. Us likely losing Bouchard happened way before, when we prioritized Tyson Barrie over development of a better internal youngster.

What? Barrie was a great place holder / mentor for a young D-man like Bouchard. When the Oilers were sure Bouchard could take over the responsibilities they dumped Barrie. Now he’s phenomenal.

 

[OilynutEsquire]

I would also but we all know Henrique is playing centre

He was on a line with Nuge and Perry last game and they looked good together. Holland was talking about Henrique being used as a rw too

To make good my bet Instead of 15 teenburgers washed down by a shot of whiskey I’m going to have a teenburger washed down by 15 shots of whiskey.

I like that ratio.

Except I’m still asking my daughters to drive by city hall and report back when the tighty whities are flying over the pyramids. No sightings lately.

 

[guymez]

Really? I don’t agree. I thought Buffalo didn’t get very many good chances at all. Most of the goals against including the disallowed one were just ugly.

Disagree.
That was as sloppy a 1st period as they have played in a while.
Even Ekholm said as much after the game. He said the team had a 'conversation' in between the first and second periods.

 

[Jimmi McJenkins]

As they should have, but they very much took over and didn't look back.

It's good the start isn't lost on them even though they scored 8 and won going away.

100%
I'm seriously hoping that they can put together a complete game tomorrow.
I would like nothing better than to see them absolutely shit stomp the Leafs in their own building on HNIC.

Absolutely, a nice, national statement about the difference between the 2 teams.

Yah they were definitely not on their A+ game but they weren’t giving up a bunch of chances.

 

[Arty Spooners Bsmnt]

If Vegas makes playoffs, lets hope they get stuck playing Avs and they go 7 games and they kill each other


I cant believe how small he is

He looks like a jockey in that pic.

Foegele- Draisaitl - Kane

Henrique at 4C is a huge waste, and Nuge deserves a better linemate. If you want to run that setup, you swap Henrique and Janmark.

But ideally I'd try this, see if Henrique is a fit higher up:

Henrique-McDavid-Hyman
Nuge-Draisaitl-Foegele
Kane-McLeod-Brown
Janmark-Carrick-Perry

 

[VainGretzky]

Neat stat 4 of the top 11 +- leaders in the NHL are Oilers 4. Ekholm 5. Hyman 6. McDavid 11. Bouchard

 

[Arty Spooners Bsmnt]

I tried giving those guys a shot because I like listening to Strudwick. Rishaug and Browns consistent bad takes killed it for me though.

The constant in-stream ads didn't do that for you?

 

[Tobias Kahun]

What? Barrie was a great place holder / mentor for a young D-man like Bouchard. When the Oilers were sure Bouchard could take over the responsibilities they dumped Barrie. Now he’s phenomenal.

Some posters argued that barrie was better than ekholm at 5on5 also.

it was laughable watching some posters argue that he wouldnt make a difference.

 

[foshizzle]

I'm sure they didn't prioritize Ceci over Bouchard. In fact I'd bet on it.

The. They should have moved on from Ceci and signed Bouchard long term

 

[Oilers in NS]

You bet!!! It’s so smooth! Absolutely delicious. Washes the eggs down perfectly for my morning breakfast!


Haha that is awesome

From time to time I drink Alberta premium. Its smooth and a good price!


I’m in!!!

Grandma can take the kids that week, and you guys can have his room and one can have the living room couch!

My wife has 2 brothers. So that’s a no go, but she does have some single friends LOL!

perfect
Do they drink and have low morales and scruples?

 

[McDNicks17]

Surely you jest!

It’s my lucky Iron Maiden jersey I wore to the game last night!

I would not have mentioned you have daughters here. @Cloned will never leave you alone now. I have so many dating applications from him to date my daughter that I needed to build an extension onto the house just to file them all.

 

[Whoshattenkirkshoes]

If you play Mcdrai together there is no way Henrique plays wing. People here need to understand this

If Mcdrai is split I get it

 

[guymez]

Impressive.
Bouchard likely wouldnt be in that group without Ekholm though.

The Ekholm trade might well be the best trade of Kennys career.
