What if that said "best case scenario sucker punches" lands one of Tkachuk/Johnny on IR?

The Flames playing guys like Peluso is playing into the Oilers hands.
Yes, I think you’re different.

I don’t want any of the Flames getting “suckered”.

EE thinks the Oilers will do something dumb like sucker punch one of our top players but not do anything super dumb like sucker punch one of our players like Bertuzzi.

That's exactly what I think as a once in a decade incident's odds of happening on a Sunday night game are extremely low.

Yes...only once a decade does a sucker punch cause injury in the NHL...to borrow from you....

But I agree the odds of that happening tonight are low....because Peluso is in the line up.

I remember a few years back, he gave Sam Gagner a pretty bad crosscheck to the face and broke his jaw, the Oilers were talking about getting revenge on him and the Canucks, but they did nothing.

If needed, the Flames can re-sign UFA Luke Gazdic, their AHL tough guy from last season too.

And after being stupid enough to fall for Tkachuk's play hook, line, and sTinker. He's gonna be mad. Caveman antics could be in full swing.

It was not a cross check but it was a high stick.

I'd rather beat them in a track meet and on the scoreboard than in the knocking out teeth department.

We'll see how this goes.
Why not both?

I’m sure Draisaitl takes a stupid penalty leading to a Flames goal

Which is usually how it plays out. But in that instance Kassian wasn't an Oiler
