I'm excited, the team should be better at all areas that I thought were weaknesses.
Having a couple young guys make the team instead of washed up, or never was, vets is nice as well.
Kane for a full season.
Campbell should be an upgrade.
Depth on the wings
Bouch takes a step forward.
McLeod getting better as well.
Holloway and Broberg should contribute.
Lots to like but most important for me. NO MORE RUSSELL STARFISH!!!

Ugh. 11pm puck drop, but with the team intros etc it'll likely be closer to midnight here by the time they finally drop the puck. Guess I'll just catch the highlights tomorrow morning.
Happy to have hockey back!

I'd rather they start out on the road.. Vancouver comes in as the underdog, Oilers might get caught up playing to the home crowd.. get the yips.. especially the D..
Need to go hard from the drop..
Go Oil!
Must is in the wind!!

One of these days this team needs to grow up and not let the crowd crap negatively effect their game. Tonight would be a good night to start!

I love going to home openers and games down the stretch. Nothing better. Looking forward to seeing us light up the Nucks. Hopefully Demko doesn’t go supernova.

Looks like Yamamoto won't be ready to go for the opener.
Kane – McDavid – Puljujarvi
Holloway – Draisaitl – Hyman
McLeod – RNH – Foegele
Malone – Shore – Ryan
Nurse – Ceci
Kulak – Barrie
Murray – Bouchard
Once Yamo is healthy, I can see him taking a spot on the top line, moving Pulju down to the third, Foegele to the fourth and Malone in the press-box.
Pretty good-looking line-up.

Also possible Foegele is out, which would mean going 11-6 and starting the season short handed lol.

Chortle.
But actually Warren Foegele going on LTIR would solve a couple of problems.

Isn't Broberg still here? Couldn't they go 11-7 if Foegele's banged up?

Think the BroBeast is already back with the Condors.
Edmonton Oilers @EdmontonOilers
The #Oilers have recalled forward Devin Shore from the @Condors & loaned defenceman Philp Broberg to Bakersfield.
Did we have to send him down to be able to bring up Shore? Yikes. Someone kinda useless with a decent cap hit needs to get on LTIR ASAP!

No way. We love the Foegele. I think I read that he had a great summer training. Dare I say he may be in the best shape of his life for this season?

This season will depend on a lot of things, but the one's I'll be focusing on are on defense.
Kulak and Ceci are solid.. I have no worries about those two..
D. Nurse
Has been mediocre in exhibition games so far, needs to focus on defense, don't force offense (it gets him in trouble), reduce his mistakes from last year, has to be a true #1 NHL D man.. need a dependable shutdown man.
Bouchard needs to bring his game up this year from last, add more offense, and get more efficient on the PP, taking over from Barrie, which he hasn't been able to yet.
As goes Bouchard and Nurse, goes the Oilers.
Murray is an unknown.. he's been Ok in exhibition, steady and mistake free.. a #6 on my scale.. he could surprise.. just can't devolve to an AHL'er.
Barrie.. expect the same performance as last year.. so far through exhibition looks similar to last year .
McDAVID! Oh YEAH Baby!!

Oilers first goal: Jessa Puljujarvi, the man who survived the trade market bc no one would offer more than a 3rd
