He said he hasn’t settled on the Edmonton lineup but sees that you might want to ice a full lineup to keep guys sharp

I see him resting or limiting ice time for guys who are dinged up


You can see his pre game video here, running down the lineup for tonight.

EVERY time I hear Peters talk, all I find myself doing is nodding along in affirmation. What a get by Treliving. If Trotz wasn’t doing his thing on the Island, Peters would win the Jack Adams, hands down.

Kopitar is one of my favorite players around the league. Classy, talented, consistent, and lacking the #####bag gene.

I see benefits in either approach...
I think the oilers game will be a dress rehearsal. Expect several regulars to sit out against Anaheim.

The season is salvaged if Drai gets to 50 or Connor catches Kuch. Both and its their Stanley cup

Lol. Maybe the low end models that are ubiquitous in Europe. The North American models are spectacular.

The Oilers seem to win the Stanley Cup every year.

Why? I would like it. "Sorry Oilers, we'd love to make a game of it, but we've got bigger fish to fry. Plus, we can beat you with 7 regulars out, anyways".

McDavid’s point totals are more impressive than Kucherov’s imo. Imagine playing with that team day in and day out? Good Lord.

Is that true, tough? It's felt like there were many times this season where we didn't the Flames line-up until seemingly right before puck drop.

For fringe players it doesn't change anything betting related.
Sitting out your top 4 D does

Bear in mind that McHobo has played the equivalent of an additional six games, even though he has played four fewer games than Kucherov.

Lineups must be submitted to the head referee 15 minutes prior to puck drop i believe.

But my question doesn't change. Are you saying they can leave fringe players til game time but would have announce stars earlier?

Well then Jason14's point is confusing. Don't most people bet with the betting lines already set earlier in the day? Betting lines don't move 15 minutes before the game do they? 15 minutes isn't exactly "in advance", so gamblers and lines adjust accordingly" to me.

Yeah. The poor kid has to play 25 minutes a night. I just don’t think kucherov would have anywhere near the points McDavid has playing on that dumpster fire of a team.
