Any word on when that other big guy might be healthy again? Also, any chance we hit the empty net here? He got an assist on the GWG. Probably bought himself another game lol. I think we're gonna seeing lots of Josh for years to come His slow feet were significantly to blame for the first goal as he failed to get to a loose puck which immediately ended up in the back of the net. Then he takes a dumb retaliatory penalty leading to the second goal. He did get an assist though! I don't get that one. I mean, he's large, but he's objectively bad, was before we signed him and has not been very good in any of the games he's played in.

I don't think any Oilers GM, even one that lasted 1 month, is allowed to not have a total bizarre head scratcher move. Can always wonder who we were competing with in negotiations that required us giving Josh Brown 3 years. Maybe there was just a mirror in the room JJ was in while on the phone.
