For the record I dont think any of our teams are good but if they beat you guys tomorrow night you can just imagine what it will be like in here with that guy

Nailed it Saludos!

Flames have a good top 6 and then it thins quickly.
- VANTEL

Nucks have one line and good goaltending so it should be a close match tomorrow!

You get them on the second half of a back to back....opportunity is knocking

Man Brian Elliot looks like poop.

Ben Bishop to Calgary for Tkachuk

And the best defensive core in the NHL.

Shattenkirk
Bouwmeester
Parayko
Pietrbngelo

At least they didn't pull a leafs with his contract

YEah we only get that 6 times for the whole year

But win or lose just want Canucks to play a good game ... can't say the Flames did that twice now against the Oil made them look better o

h well at this point maybe it's not all about the wins but the level of play ... not like any of these teams are hunting for Stanley right now

Ah complain no... sorry... mere observation and just invoking a conversation on what we think as fans based on Carol's blog. Plus the media is all over this with opinions and articles so it's relevant now.

But what else would you prefer to talk about in this thread..?

Is the one line You see because of how the lines are made up or you got no faith in the rest of the roster no matter how you line them up.... and why :...?

Wow that Provorov kid is good, nice pick by Philly.

3-0 Flyers

IMO the bottom nine players are either A) not high offensive guys or B) they're largely unproven. Doesn't matter how you mix them up. I disagree with Desjardins explanation on why he has Horvat on the fourth line, I believe he should be with more talented players.

3-0 Flyers
- VANTEL

4-1....there goes my shutout

Not just Red, Duran Duran, FlamingIrishman, Fry...you name it, they will want gloat after losing 2 to Edmonton. I'm surprised there's not more of Oiler fans here talking presidents trophy.

No the majority of us realize even tho we are 2-0 there is alot of work to be done still before we can start talking playoffs....tho beating the Flames back to back is pretty sweet regardless of if we are a good team or not

Koneckny isn't bad either

All this level headed reasoning from an Oiler fan is going to break this thread into pieces ... oh lord Stanley grace us with your presence and come reside in Lotus land ... sorry just went to pieces

Hmmm so if there are more talented players to line up with stands to reason more offense can be had unproven or not

Page after page of people stressing about Horvat being used as a 4rth liner 0 games into the season. This thread reads like we are at least 10 games into the season... Not a single person on here aknowledged that WD said he was planning on using Horvat 16-18 minutes a game and match him up against some of the best players in the game. Obviously he has many plans for Horvat. He's going to be on the 2nd PP unit, PK and going to be taking a lot of defensive zone face offs as well. Sounds like he's going to be depended on in multiple roles... Why so single minded people?

Management and coaches made it clear that they put Bo in a position last year where he couldnt focus on the most important part of the game, defense. The stats show it. Looks like they want to work on that. I'm sure he can be swapped with Sutter to get in the top six if it looks like it's needed. That will be something people should be at least willing to wait and see before being so judgemental over speculation. They have been clear that Sutter was brought in for the 2nd line from the very beginning.... why so suprised they are going to try that right away since they never got a chance to settle him in at that role last season...

Vantel shares an honest opinion on the reflection of performances during the pre season. I agree with him.
