They don't look out of their league tonight. Really liking this new Oilers.

Was thinkin the same in the first

Kinda nice. We're able to kinda play that boring defensive style and go toe to toe with really good teams. Don't look out of place at all


They've taken it t us in the second pretty good though .
Either way, the oilers are miles better than last year

"Guys don't like playing against Adam Larsson"

You're damn right they don't

Larsson is good.

Having a whale of a night

Not trolling but let's not get ahead of ourselves planning that parade just yet. Ha-ha! I do have Edm as a possible playoff team this year but here's a post I placed on Dobber the other day.

"I don't want to rain on Edm's parade but has any team had an easier schedule to start the season? Edm has played Cal twice to open the season; 29th in the league, Buffalo; 28th, Carolina; 26th, StL; 3rd playing it's 5th game in 9 nights & Winnipeg; 25th. 4 of those 6 games were played at home. They won them & that's important, very much so. Based on standings at time of post the morning on Oct 24th.

I have Edm as a playoff bubble team this season; they could easily make it, but standings & stats are seriously skewed this early in the season as the NHL schedule has very little continuity & I don't start buying things until the last team in the league plays it's 25th game." I do take a snapp shot after the last team in the league plays it's 10th & possibly lay some hedge bets to counter my wagers from before the season started.

I haven't been to a home get yet. Don't live in Edm but a long time season ticket holder That spends more time in Alberta & Texas than at home. Hoping to arrive in time for tonight's game; I will be leaving Dallas shortly hubing out of Denver & looking forward to catching the team live in their new digs tonight & Sunday. Hoping I don't get bogged down & arrive late. The vagaries of flying.

Really looking forward to seeing the new team play. A new day is dawning in Edmonton & I really like what Chiarelli has accomplished restructuring this team in a really short period of time.

Got it backwards, Trump votes Larsson.

Oh (frank) yeah...

Love how Klef carried the puck up the ice and joined the play.

And then he does that.

Took youvguys long enough to realize you did actually get a top pair defender in that trade. Never listen to Tanner, zone starts, QOC and situational stats do actually matter when looking at a defenseman.

Nice to see Talbot give Oshir the blocker in the lips.

Yeah (frank) that call though.

Lander is an offensive dynamo.

Yeah, penalties will kill a team against Washington.

I knew before it happened.

Lander looked like he was skating in mud there.

Lucic should get on top of Oshie when he is lying down and give him 3 good (frank)ing cross-checks.

I like the Oilers a little.


It's scary. Been a while.

Oshie and Pearson. The list grows.
