Slash will result in a fine
Nurse suspension? This would be a disaster, hopefully it’s not. We need him on the blue line.
Oilers are a one dimensional team,Mcdavid cry’s to the refs everyday,Nurse is a AHL defence man,oilers will never win a cup to leaky on defence
Kane is a broke hack
Mcdavid is a little fruity
97 showed he hasn't been in many fights. No criticism though… he shouldn't. He's more than physical enough within the game.
What is the status of Leon. Is he okay
Go Get Em Oilers……We Got This!, Bring It Home, We'll Be There For Yous!!
These guys don’t know Sabrina!?

Fourth game of the series and after this one we're all tied up at 2. The first game was close even though the Oilers didn't play the first 40 minutes of that game. The second and fourth games were blowouts by the Oilers and the third game a blowout by Vegas. It's like they alternate nights they will play well. This game was really a tale about discipline. The Oilers mostly had it (though the third period was a nutter), Vegas didn't. While I can see Petrangelo getting a suspension for that overhead slash on Draisaitl (and I'm obviously hoping Leon isn't hurt) and I'm hoping Nurse is "retroactively removed" from being an instigator on his fight avoiding a suspension we'll see what the Department of Player Safety is going to do (my candid thoughts about that are most certainly not 'family friendly' to be posted on ANY website so I'll just leave some things to the imagination). Nuge and Bouch threadded very small holes for their goals. Ekholm seemed to have the whole net for his and Bjugstad had the wraparound (and it was a really good one too). It was really nice to see Nuge get off of the schnide and to have Ekholm score his first as well. Skinner had a great game making several really key stops and only letting one in (wish he could have gotten the shutout but hey, it's a win). All in all a great game by the Oilers. Oilers went 12/6 this game and it worked. I was really hoping Ryan would get rewarded but take it as it comes. We had depth scoring (Bjugstad), D scoring (Bouch, Ekholm) and Nuge scoring (Nuge). Take care all.
