  1. Of courae we take dumb penalties and oilers just keep scoring goals with McD and Draisiatle playing 40 minutes lol
  2. This is ridiculous man, wtf are they doing??
  3. I dont know, depends if Green is going to dress our other AHLers lol
  4. Yeah haha, Oilers giving 40 minutes to McDavid like they are trying to make the playoffs now. While Green still thinks we have more preseason games. I mean whats the point of starting McKewan?
  5. Maybe green wants to start the regular season with AHL players
  6. Well the ref will give penalty if the guilty party keeps waiving hia arma in the air like Mackewan. He was asking for it.
  7. Mackewan sucks...not sure why he keeps playing
  8. Problem is that we havent had one game where all of our regulars play just to warm up for the regular season and get some time practicing PK and PP. I see all the other teams having a preseason game where most or all of their regulars play and practice on fundamentals. So I dont know what Green is up to. MacKewan should not even make the team at this point as there were many players that played better than him. Heck even players like Di Giussepe have played better.
  9. Yeah am scared our first road trip. I think its not wise to still be icing AHL roster this late in the pre-season. Its been a complete mess with Hamonic not coming, Sutter and Motte still injured and Boeser injured after one game. Pettersson and Hughes coming late to camp and only getting one or 2 preseason games.
  10. Question is why Green is still undecided on who to cut? Mackewan for example, should have been sent down sooner instead of playing again tonight. Focht should have been sent down too.
  11. Damn the Oilers playing their opening night roster. I hope we win but am not confident because we still are not playing all of our regulars. Will Green eventually play more vets? I think Canucks shoild have made the decisions already of who makes the cut. Dont want to go to regular season with all the vets playing together for the first time.
  12. They must have hired a teenager to write for them.
  13. Yeah our defense is not good, especially if Hamonic doesnt come back soon. Then you have people praising Madison Bowey and wanting him to be on our top 4 when last year he wasnt even a regular in Chicago's D group. Am just hoping Benning somehow replaces Hamonic externally.
  14. I see us make the playoffs, I dont see us contend for division as Vegas will win it. OEL is back to his old self again so this article is talking non sense.
  15. I still doubt Dowling will be a fulltime regular, more like a spare. Garland-Pettersson-Boeser Hoglander-Horvat-Pearson Petan-Miller-Podkolzin Lockwood-Dickenson-Gadjovich/Dowling OEL-Myers Hughes-Poolman Juolevi-Lauzon/Borgen (waiver pickup) Schenn Demko Halak
  16. I think Podkolzin played better and Lockwood has been a good surprise. At least we know OEL is as advertised and poolman has been good.
  17. Yeah, thats my point. Not sure why some people are freaking out here. They really thought we would win with Dowling as our 2nd line center
  18. Everyone here needs to take a Xanax and calm down. The preseason is just used to evaluate who makes the team, there is no points on the line.
  19. Yep Myers and OEL. The rest of our D was Rathbone, Juolevi which I still dont consider them as full time NHLers plus 2 AHL quality defender in Schenn who hasnt played good and Burroughs who is another AHL defender. Thats why we need Hamonic back ASAP and Hughes needs to start playing.
  20. Yep also Miller, which emphasizes my point. So we were missing 9. People need to calm down because Green has yet to start a full NHL lineup. He is just icing AHL lineup against NHL lineups.
  21. Well they did outshot Seattle. I think it was just an AHL lineup vs. NHL lineup, nothing to do with heart and soul lol. That seattle lineup is full of NHL vets playing tonight so they can beat a beer league team that plays with "heart and soul"
  22. Krakens were missing Gourde. We were missing Hughes, Boeser, Pettersson, Garland, Poolman, Hamonic, Sutter, Motte...more like 8 regulars where 3 or 4 are star players or game breakers.
  23. Well if we spend more time in the offensive zone, we would get more PPs vs. spending time in our own zone with AHL caliber replacements of Sutter and Motte. Plus it will also be better for our offensively minded D core to spend more time in the offensive zone. Our team is really built to play offensively especially with D group of Hughes, OEL, Rathbone and Myers.
  24. Yeah am not surprised we lost this game, it was expected. Anyone thinking that our lineup tonight would win this game are just kidding themselves. Seattle also has a pretty decent D group that is well balanced amd actually has more depth than our D core backed up by a vezina caliber goalie. The only threat was Horvat all night long.
