I was worried that Larsson wouldn't get his goal against but he dug deep, totally nutted up and did it with less than a minute to go by letting Stutzel get behind him. Thatta boy!!!

In all seriousness, the Oilers played solid. They did what they had to do.

Koskinen was solid.

Bouchard looked good. All he does is create offence and loves to shoot. I thought his skating looked fine as he was able to get all over the ice.

JP looked real good and scored goals he should be able to score with that big of a body. I am happy for him and hope it's only the start.

Haas had another good game. Helped on the PK, looked solid.

Barrie looked good again and I love that he's shooting.

I thought McDavid, Nuge and Leon had quieter nights.

Lagesson looked good in really limited minutes.

I thought Kassian looked more engaged. 6 hits, mixing it up. Maybe M. Tkachuk's little bro got him nice and fired up for the Lames game.

I still don't get dressing 7 dmen when Koekkoek played just over 8 mins and Lagesson under 9.

3 wins in a row, .500 now. I am not planning the parade yet for beating the Send twice but at the same time, the Oilers of the past were famous for losing to teams that should beat. They didn't this time. Hopefully they can boot stomp the Lames.

Wouldn’t count on it.

JP first star!!

I know you’re all sick of my Chiasson love but did he really do anything useful out there tonight? Neal at least would have looked good while doing nothing.

It's like Tippett was trying to make Chaisson feel better about being waived. Just kept tossing him out on the PP to kill plays.

Tippett: Yeah, we’re trying to get guys going. Trying to get the right mix. Chiasser looked good out there, drove the net, used his body to gain position, finished a nice play in tight and tipped in a second goal. Great game by Chiasser.

Oscargasm: Uh, Dave, that was Jesse Puljujarvi. Chiasser was absolute trash, again, out there. Powerplays died with him, any semblance of zone time on offense died with him.

Tippett: Next question.


In all seriousness. Chiasson is 8 goals away from 100 and 6 assists from 100 on his career. I wonder if that plays a factor in it? I do hope he gets to both of those milestones before he’s completely phased out of the league.

Jesse now speaks kinda sorta almost barely nearly functional english. It makes all the difference.

exactly... Imagine how alone he must have felt two years ago. My image of him was during a mid season break where a bunch of his "team mates" headed off somewhere warm... JP was noted skating alone at an Edmonton outdoor rink with a young local... It made me kinda sad... To me it didn't say much about the team leadership not to know how little English he knew and to NOT invite him along for the mini-vacation. Wow. I can't imagine how alone he must have felt. No wonder he didn't do anything on the ice. Not a good look on the OILER CULTURE... I wonder how much has changed...

...this time, it's for real (isn't it?).

Kr55 wrote on Wed, 03 February 2021 17:32 Adam wrote on Wed, 03 February 2021 16:27 David Staples beating the drum HARD for Gaetan Haas today, saying that we've found our #3C. It's a shame that there's an actual law from the Hockey Gods that says that anything David Staples advocates for is always wrong. (There's a lot of evidence that actually anything Staples advocates at all is always wrong too). Haas has 10 points in 60 games. Unless he suddenly developed hands over the last few months, those aren't third line numbers and while I like a lot of what he brings, we should be expecting more from our third line. Of course, he may end up in that position this year, but it's due to a weak spot on the Oilers roster, not because he should be a #3C. If his only competition is Turris, he might have a shot :) Definitely agree, that is not what a good team should be satisficed with as a #3C, if we can get past how manly Haas' chin is. I didn't follow last game who Turris was actually playing with. Chaisson then Kahun, McDavid were his most common linemates 5v5 last game. Just some random stuff I guess? Maybe Turris can be a winger on the 3rd line. I already have him in the Gagner zone in my head. Should be playing wing, just not good enough offensively to make up for how bad he is handling C responsibilities in his own end. Who is this Haas character you two and Staples are referring to?

You called?
