Didn't support bringing ZC in but he's here and wearing Blue and Gold so now he has my full support. Hoping he lights it up, stays healthy and gives our coaching and management staff something to think about heading into the playoffs and beyond.

Yup. Seriously. Anything can happen.

Wonder how many of those catches are of the check down variety . . .

You know you're in trouble when.

Really, wow thanks seemed like more. He looked really gassed. Maybe he wasn't feeling well. I"m guessing he's close to the league leading in average shift time. I'm pretty sure he was last year. He is the best hockey player in the world but leeping that pace over 82 games is pushing it imo.

Doesn't matter who coaches the Oilers during the McDavid era, the formula is to play him as much as humanly possible. He was so gassed at the end he could hardly take his shootout turn. If they keep this up they risk burning him out and or injury.

Double post dum dum

That was one heckava game to watch, it just flew by. Helle played like we need him to play, Laine has really stepped up his game, Wheeler was back and forth brilliant to horrible the whole game and Tucker Poolman I'm sorry to say is one hot mess.

So we should just give up? Not going to happen with me but by all means fill your boots.

Why wouldn't I? I'm a Bomber fan. They've made the playoffs anything can happen straws or no straws.

The point is there are more than a few legit teams. It's up for grabs.

Yup. Unlike previous years, no clear favorite to win it all this year. 29 years of futility not winning the Grey Cup with legitimate feeling of here we go again but still hope. Why not. Wrong sport but Let's not be like an Oiler 'fan' and decide when to throw the jersey in the garbage and when to wear it influenced by how well they are doing. Yell at the team but always wear the colors.

Yup. As for the D we really need Buff to make a decision either way.

I find it interesting with articles being published about the Senators so far on figuring out what's wrong with them after games played thus far. Apparently a few scribes, experts (and others) have already suggested they are in full rebuild, best thing this year is come in last to increase their chances of acquiring a high draft pick to help them complete the pieces needed to become a contender. Therefore the answer to why every time they lose will be the same this year and is pretty simple. This year they're predominately fielding an AHL team with a few exceptions waiting for the right pieces to develop and or be acquired. Any other analysis this season about what's wrong with their play year is simply window dressing.

More like suggesting.

Would the Wild let Dumba go for that? I like his game but I'm guessing so do the Wild 🙂

Wasn't in agreement in bringing in ZC but since we have him, rather than hat on backwards with a clip board , I'd give him a few looks in certain situations and cross my fingers he doesn't sustain a concussion.

Didn't help with it being the Coyotes whom got the last laugh anyway.

Don't know but welcome to the challenge of being a NHL General Manager. Maybe he should ring up Holland and get a few tips i.e. Lucic for Neal

Captain Obvious states losing Chiarot, Myers, Trouba and Buff is really showing it's impact after 8 games. Is that enough games now for Chevy to hit the 'I need to do something else now' button that is above and beyond waiting for our young guns to develop?

Hope it's a maintenance day for Miller, beast on ST, more important than some people think.

Why isn't Bietto boxing Guetzel out? Feck.

HH to CS

Bombers and Jets win on the same day. We can have nice things.

Bighill with nine tackles, sure didn't feel like it. Kudos to him. Just felt like he wasn't a factor.
