Oilers at ANA:

Khaira-McDavid-Kassian
Lucic-RNH-Puljujarvi
Rieder-Draisaitl-Chiasson
Gambardella-Brodziak-Rattie

Jones-Larsson
Nurse-Russell
Gravel-Petrovic

Talbot starts...

That Draisaitl on his own line is going to last about 8 minutes.


That second line is awesome
Slow-soft-stupid.

[browna]

Another regional game given all the Oilers talk.

“Louie, what do you think of the line of MCDavid,Kassian and Kahaira?”
“I like it!”

[fire_starter]

The Pens already up 2-0 on the Hawks.

And from now on that line is their "3S" line....

[zamler]

Ducks sure don't look like the teams they used to be.

I think that says a lot.

The Glen Sather part is the key there, especially since it came out unprompted.
Lowe wants to be Sather so bad. 35+ years later with a whole different set of rules, mentality of players, structure needed.

Lowe thinks they can also just throw out a bunch of talent, think outside the box when it comes to thins like coaching, but ignore structure discipline, because he and the other boys on the bus under Sather just winged it. Since they won like that 35 years ago, it should work the last 10 too.

Oh, look. Connor McDustpan scored.

So strange how a crap team like the Oilers usually play the Ducks hard yet the Flames really struggle against them. It's like some historical curse as players and coaches come and go but the team always stumbles against the Ducks.

[AC]

I'm hoping Edmonton miraculously pulls out a regulation win here.

A) #### Anaheim
B) Everything is fixed! Stay the course Oilers!

[chummer]

"Talbot came to play"

Yeah Randorf, isn't that his job?

[joejoe3]

Oilers need to win tonight so Chia doesn’t get the boot.

[kukkudo]

Screw the oilers they can loose.

[chummer]

Gibson has played a few games without being injured. He's due.

[WhiteTiger]

FFS...every time I decide to watch the Oilers to bask in their suck, they get to looking like they may win. >.<

Conversely, the Flames have always played the Kings tough while the Oilers have been hot garbage against them (even worse than against most teams).

That's sports.

[CroFlames]

Everything is fixed boys. Time to stay the course Oilers.

[Aleks]

I can't explain enough how much that tongue thing poolparty does bugs me.

Yeah it's weird how it just gets into the heads of players and coaches.

Yeah, but if there is one team in the league that I won't mind them beating, it's the Ducks.
