Don't believe he's an actual 2-3. 3-4 sure. But look how he's doing with a stay home 3-4 on his pairing. I think we have 2 better options just coming into their own that are in the same-ish mold in Klef and Nurse. If he's having this tough of a time with Hamonic... no thanks.

I think he's as much as 2-3 as Larsson. Fits the mold with the right partner, but is better suited to anchoring a 2nd pairing.

As much as I like to preach Larsson, and think he is more... he's likely a 3-4. More in the opposite half as Brodie. Brodie would be the guy to add some offensive touch while Larsson has shown the ability to add the offensive touch but is more than competent in his own end. Brodie this year has still gotten quite a few points on the PP which we all know Larsson barely gets a sniff at. Brodie has 11 PPP to Larssons 0PPP. Larsson is +9 on a -22 team. Brodie is -16 on a -22 team. Ultimately could be ideal partners. But i think Larsson matches up better with Nurse or Klef and can grow into his own bit of an offensive chipper. He'll never be an elite offensive producer, but he's not a Ken Daneyko

Tough sh** Oilers fans. Picking off first overall picks like low hanging fruit and whining like spoilt brats when somebody else does will not win you much sympathy. You got too many gifts dumped in your lap for 30 years and it made you entitled, selfish and cocky. You don't deserve a Stanley Cup.

Dafuq... now we get secondary scoring and McDavid and Nuge rip it up

I expect Todd to drastically change up the lines and possibly sit Rattie and Aberg within the coming games. We can't have our team producing offense.

Roll in with:

Nurse-Larsson
Klefbom-Sekera
Russell-Bennings/Bear

Next year. As long as Klefbom rebounds and Sekera finds his groove back. We should be fine. That is at worst a middle in the pack defense and possibly an upper tier defense if Klefbom gets back to what he was last year. Talbot will also need to play like how he has as of late too. Can't let in goals on the first shot on a consistent basis.

I wanna look at what I consider our top pairing right now. Cause honestly, I think they are, and that they will only be getting better. Unless Nurse pulls a Klefbom,
I think they have better chem. than the Klefbom-Larsson pairing last year. The DN-AL pairing have an alternating symbiotically mutual type of chemistry with regards to offense and defense that wasn't seen with OK-AL, and man has it been a pleasure to watch at times. Sometimes Nurse will carry the puck and Larsson stays back. Other times the opposite.

Nurse has been damn good this year. Bit optimistic here, but he MIGHT even make his case as a top 2 defender IF he continues developing like how he has. Finally has found and incorporated defensive awareness into his game, and man does it make him that better of a player. Finally checking all of the boxes we expected of him at draft day. Now, I hope he takes it up a notch.

Larsson is Larsson. Offensively, he has been joining on rushes, plays, and has been trying to create offense last postseason, first 20 games, and . Let's just hope he keeps it up. The points WILL follow. If I were a coach, I would award that with PP time.... , but hey, seems like TMac sees him more important on the PK, which has finally rebounded back after an apparent system change. Stellar in his own zone as expected. Still a top 2 defender in my mind since he has played against top opposition throughout his career and has excelled at it regardless of who he was paired up with.

You’re a (frank)ing idiot. Klef and Nurse were both good before Larsson. Larsson is good defensively. He doesn’t boost anyone. Your obsessing over and over.

Last 5 games btw:
Nurse: aTOI-24.51 | 5 points | 10 shots |+7 (weak stat, I look at it as GF/GA when on the ice)
Larsson: aTOI-23.48 | 2 points | 19 Hits | +10

TMaC has clearly been dependent on these two and so far, so good. In fact, damn good.

Btw, first Klefbom finds the best of himself with Larsson on his pairing, now Nurse. Hmmm...

Mission accomplished. Good say, sir.

And that post didn't even have the line that was supposed to lure you in. That was the post following it.

No. Because they cocked up the MW1 remaster. Nothing but a cash grab by a publisher predicated on poopty cash grabs.

We see this same thing over and over every year after elimination there are glimmers of hope. Then it crashes and burns in the off-season. Chia is a moron and Todd sucks.

Remember how some morons were going on about Hall and Ebs only putting up good numbers in games that didn’t matter etc well I guess the same applies to McD and Drai? Probably not because they are still on the oilers. If traded though that would automatically apply.

(frank) this organization and its idiot fans.

You got serious issues honestly. It's at the point where I just agree with your BS insults with you cause pretty sure as (frank) you're more close to dying than I am. At least that will leave you with some comfort on your death bed. Pessimistic old-fuk.

It wasn't that bad. Supply drops poopted on it though. However, weapons could be unlocked if you grinded for 'em. The campaign had a lot of easter eggs. Plus they added a couple of modes in MP that were interesting.

But yeah, if they plan to add in loot boxes, it will probably turn out poopty too. Regardless, one of my favorite FPS's out there.
