Hope that 1st line can get something done. Although, not as worried under Hitch that it'll be ripped apart if they don't do something within 3 shifts.

With the exception of the Khaira suspension that's about as good as our forward lines get.

Once Khaira is back I'd love to see Khaira and Reider at 2LW/3LW with Looch getting a little pressbox time.

Ya, I think this is pretty much the optimal lineup given the roster. Would be nice to have Strome on the 3rd line and bump Brodziak down to the 4th. Add that one to a "small" move of Chia's that I'm not a fan of.

2nd/3rd pairings are going to have their hands full tonight.



Oilers Goal Differential
17/18: 234 GF / 263 GA (-29)
18/19: 232 GF / 274 GA (-42)
19/20 (82 game pace): 257 GF / 254 GA (+3) in 64 games
2021 (82 game pace):269 GF / 235 GA (+34) after 38 games

Fixed that for you. It will be a moral victory if the Oil avoid losing by more than 2 goals tonight with that defense group.

If the Oilers are to win this game, it's a goalie win. I just don't see the Oilers putting up 4 or 5.

Don't go looking for it on the CBC, cuz lord knows the Oilers don't get that kind of respect.

We're now 3-12 on being on CBC this year.

They better enjoy it now, because the Cap Monster is coming after them this summer and it looks like sacrificing that D depth is how they will fight against it.

Daily reminder that Lucic's contract sucks.

Dan freakin-Girardi - 3 goals
Milan freakin-Lucic - 1 goal
