I guess DD is trying to not leave Gorges or Franson exposed but I am quickly losing any compunction to give him the benefit of the doubt.

The lines

The Risto/Gorges and Kulikov/Franson pairings make me want Bylsma to be fired a little more than normal.

 

:lol:

Ya, I would rather take my chance with a good pair (Kulikov, Ristolainen) and a decent one (McCabe and Bogosian) and try to limit the ice time of pair 3, then spreading out Kulikov and Risto and having no "good" pair.

Anyone else watching the game on NHL Network?

 

They are tapping into the Rogers broadcast with the Edmonton crew.

 

Color guy is Louis DeBrusk, who was known to throw 'em back in the day.  Haven't thought about him in a long time!

Exactly. All three become liabilities.

I have Gamecentre but live in Canada so the game is on Sportsnet since it's the Oilers. It's a special "Hometown Hockey" (very one-sided) broadcast.

Lesser of 2 evils. Nelson looked like a deer in the headlights in game 1.

At least he was in front of the headlights. Franson was chasing the taillights.
