The Jets getting Ehlers back is huge, and will only make them more confident. Me likey.

I have McDavid in one of my playoff pools and he's sinking my team with his big fat goose egg. The thing is that my second favorite NHL pastime is watching the Oilers lose so watching them get shut out and down 0-2 games >>>>> playoff pool revenue. I hope the Jets sweep them.

Massive changes with Edmonton #Oilers going for speed over grit in Game 3 line-up.
In are Ennis, Haas & Shore, three of fastest Oilers.
Out are Chiasson, Neal, Kahun, three of slowest.
Also Barrie bumped down, Bear with Nurse.

It is a shame. James Neal should be playing 28 minutes a night for that powerhouse team.

Get him out there! He should be QBing their powerplay for the full 2 minutes.

Maybe even put him in net! James Neal should be everywhere!

Projected top line for Oilers has 1OA, 3OA and 4OA. Second line has 1OA and 13OA (but it’s Kassian) and someone named Ryan Macleod.

You’re underestimating the real deal here, he can do all of those things even while being a healthy scratch.

That’s what was wrong; the players weren’t getting the puck to McVincible quick enough so adding the 3 fastest no buddies in place of the 3 slower no buddies is the obvious adjustment.

They are getting absolutely crushed by the heavy bodies of the Jets and are outhit over the first two games 120 to 87 with 8 hits each coming from Neal and Chiasson... this should prove to be hilarious lol.

Where did this Macleod guy come from?

Did the Edmonton s###y player machine just pump one out and slap a common canadian name on his back?

He was PPG in Bakersfield but 1 assist in 10 NHL games after his call up. It’s basically like if the Flames put Phillips on the 2nd line in the POs last year. It’s a desperation move.

Umm Garbage out garbage in, and putting Bear who is underwhelming and just a bad decision maker with Nurse is like throwing a lit stick of dynamite in a tub of gas.


Speed won't work if the Jets keep plugging the neutral zone, and Ehlers is a huge return for the Jets.

Gas goes in plastic bags. Everyone knows that.

Bear is terrible. I don't know why they insist on playing him in the top 4. He's a 5/6 defensemen.
