If we ever make the playoffs I can't imagine Sam being able to set up shop in front of the net like he does now. He'd take a beating.

 

True, but it would be fun to see.  Reinhart cross checked, fixes helmet.  Reinhart cross checked, fixes helmet.  Lather rinse repeat.

i don't want it to get lost in the shuffle that Samson made a very slick little pass into the slot about 30 seconds before the goal. He hasn't been making them as much this season but it's that kind of creativity and vision that made him such a high pick

When ya tell me the tank was bad I look at Dylan strome then I watch Eichel play and I sleep like a baby.

Sam with nice speed on the back check, nice set up to Ryan

His game is coming people

Maybe. He needs to find consistency.

I kinda like Wilson. He's got it. That grit, that...what's a 5 cent word for je ne sais quoi? I like that he always shoots. He could probably pot 10 or 12 for a good team.

He's good depth. That's not a bad thing.

Yeah could have been much worse, Imagine us having him as our building block 1C.

Is Sam showing himself to be as much a goal scorer at the NHL level as a playmaker? Never would have thought that going in, but the stats pretty much bare that out.

 

He often doesn’t have the space to dish, but he’s always going to the net, and that’s where he scores 95% of his goals.

Sure has improved since early in season, good to see!

Hey, I missed the anthem. Was it another fake ass Randy Travis?

 

The real Randy Travis lives near here.  He likes to get naked and drunk before he drives.  It's kind of embarrassing.

The consequences of tanking versus not tanking are not of having Eichel versus having Strome. Not-tanking doesn't change our standings position by 2 points, nobody knows what we'd look like now. Maybe instead of Reinhart, Eichel, and Nylander we have Ehlers, Werenski, and a lotto win giving us luck with a Matthews. Nobody knows what would have happened, though I'd comfortably bet everything I have that 

 

a.) We'd be a much better team right now than one that is...still tank-bad

b.) Pro-tankers back in 2015 after the lotto would have bet anything they had that we wouldn't be in this position in 2018 (I was and can vouch for this personally)

I still think it's creepy how many Oilers fans wear jerseys.Maybe the highest percentage of any arena.

Chicago. They revoke season tickets for wearing the old reboks

In honor of Inkman this need requires:

 

That’s what she said

Thanks for looking out

Oops. I missed most of the 1st period. :(

Me too. I thought it was a 10pm start for some reason.
