woods-racer Posted January 23, 2018 Report Posted January 23, 2018 That ^ don't look right. Could just be my computer Quote
Tondas Posted January 24, 2018 Report Posted January 24, 2018 (edited) I'm actually looking forward to tonight's game. I guess that's what a one game winning streak does. And yes, for this years' team, I consider one win in a row as a streak. Frankly, the Sabres already have more points on this roadie than I thought they would when it started.

French Collection Posted January 24, 2018 Report Posted January 24, 2018 This is an important game for the Oilers as they have 3 wins in a row and need many more to have a sniff at the playoffs. The Sabres need to embrace the spoiler role and rebuild their reputation one win at a time. Go Sabres! Quote
Sabel79 Posted January 24, 2018 Report Posted January 24, 2018 Antipin actually in the lineup for tonight. What a time to be alive... Quote
bob_sauve28 Posted January 24, 2018 Report Posted January 24, 2018 There HAS to be something to it. He hasn't been a world beater in his limited ice time, but he's looked better than at least 3 guys that have gotten regular ice time this year. They already have Gorges in the press box. Unless he caught the flu that Josefson & Antipin had, it would appear they already have A D-man to sit in the press box. They don't need a 2nd one. I have a feeling Gorges is done. I thought he was just horrible the last game he played Quote
TrueBlueGED Posted January 24, 2018 Report Posted January 24, 2018 Antipin actually in the lineup for tonight. What a time to be alive... First mistake, he'll be stapled to the bench. Over/under on his ice time is 10 minutes. Quote
Tondas Posted January 24, 2018 Report Posted January 24, 2018 I thought Baptiste looked enthused last night. Did some good stuff, hustled, looked like he cared. Anxious to see what he brings tonight. Might be now or never for him. Quote
Taro T Posted January 24, 2018 Report Posted January 24, 2018 Antipin actually in the lineup for tonight. What a time to be alive... First mistake, he'll be stapled to the bench. Over/under on his ice time is 10 minutes. Way to bring reality back to this, Debbie Downer. :angry: :p Quote
TrueBlueGED Posted January 24, 2018 Report Posted January 24, 2018 Way to bring reality back to this, Debbie Downer. :angry: :P I just don't understand why there is zero tolerance for his mistakes. I actually liked how they were bringing him along earlier in the year, focusing on sheltering him and playing him more at home than away. I thought it made sense to help with his transition, and it signaled a willingness to work through things over the long haul. But man, I don't know if something changed or if I just completely misread the signal, but there's clearly not a willingness to let him learn through playing. Quote
French Collection Posted January 24, 2018 Report Posted January 24, 2018 I liked watching Antipin as well, mistakes and all. I thought he would be a good fit in Housley's system and contribute offensively. I hope he has a good game, forcing their hand at keeping him in the lineup. Quote

But man, I don't know if something changed or if I just completely misread the signal, but there's clearly not a willingness to let him learn through playing. No idea what it was that made him persona non grata, but he's been there since at least mid-November. Kinda stinks as he seems to have potential. If he really does, they have a really cheap #4 already in the system. If he doesn't, eh, nothing hugely lost; but considering they NEVER play him they xan't possibly know. And if they trade him as has been rumored, can they even get a 5th for him? The season is lost. Play the guy & find out what they have. He must have done something or else Housley has a serious anti-Soviet bias. (Went w/ that because pretty sure Victor isn't Russian.) Quote
Mustache of God Posted January 24, 2018 Report Posted January 24, 2018 I think Antipin scores tonight. Quote
Taro T Posted January 24, 2018 Report Posted January 24, 2018 I think Antipin scores tonight. He could. Edmonton supposedly has a very active bar scene. ;) Quote
Brawndo Posted January 24, 2018 Report Posted January 24, 2018 Some new lines for Sabres: Girgensons-Eichel-Okposo Wilson-O’Reilly-Reinhart Kane-Larsson-Pominville Pouliot-Rodrigues-Nolan Baptiste sits Sabres’ defense: Scandella-Ristolainen McCabe-Antipin Falk-Nelson Quote
Mustache of God Posted January 24, 2018 Report Posted January 24, 2018 Wilson-O’Reilly-Reinhart , the power trio ive been waiting for all my life. Arent we trying to trade Kane? Shouldnt he be playing with players who will help him score? I havent looked at box scores of late but i feel like he hasnt been productive lately Quote

SwampD Posted January 24, 2018 Report Posted January 24, 2018 I still think it's creepy how many Oilers fans wear jerseys. Maybe the highest percentage of any arena. Quote
Sabel79 Posted January 24, 2018 Report Posted January 24, 2018 Am I the only one that has a hard time looking directly into the Oilers jerseys? Yeesh. Quote
darksabre Posted January 24, 2018 Report Posted January 24, 2018 Its a morgue in there. It's a Tuesday in January against a bad out of conference opponent so Quote
ubkev Posted January 24, 2018 Report Posted January 24, 2018 Am I the only one that has a hard time looking directly into the Oilers jerseys? Yeesh. Yeah, they're fcuk ugly Quote
Thorner Posted January 24, 2018 Report Posted January 24, 2018 (edited) Am I the only one that has a hard time looking directly into the Oilers jerseys? Yeesh. No. They're horrid. - - - Took them altogether too long to get those lights off. Edited January 24, 2018 by Thorny Quote
