Beautiful combo with Toews/Saad. Now...unless JC is a fucking imbecile...he'll keep that S/T/K line together.

Great feed to Kubalik for the PP goal. Stay in front of the net, Dach, and good things will continue to happen!

Did the Blues not show up tonight or what?
As a tweet pointed out, Colliton has now done something Q never even did... win a game in July (well not a real game but...)

The Blues know they're in the playoffs and play 4 warm up games, basically, so no need to fully ramp it up. Edmonton will be ready, so we'll see how Chicago responds when it really matters.

Either way it’s a confidence builder. If they lost 4-0 we would all be a little less happy, it gives us fans a little more to smile about heading into the Edmonton series. |

Crow looked like the Connie favorite to me. 19 wins to go..... |

Oh for sure, always nice beating the Blues, especially considering they were 4-0 vs Chicago this year with 2 shutouts. After 4mnths off and good scrimmages, any confidence helps, beating the Cup champs will do that. |

The Hawks looked good and the Blues looked disinterested but good's OK at this point. I'd still get D-Cat back on the top six,I don't get snipers in checking roles and Nolander plays without purpose.

My apologies for being so direct, it’s not personal, I just think he is a horrendous coach, no emotion whatsoever, majority of the time he looks lost in space, it still boggles my mind we went from a legend of a coach to this guy. |

No matter what anyone says, this might be closer than some think. Oilers lived off their PP. Taking these stats from the Oilers boards, Draisaitl took 44% of his points from the PP, McDavid was 40%. McInnon was 33% and Panarin only 25%. Kane was about 27%. If goaltending is equal our even strength scoring depth might tell the tale, if we can keep out of the box. |

Here are some further numbers.
If I was seeing correct numbers, the Oilers PP% was 29.50%, the league avg. was 20.03%
The Hawks penalty kill % was 82.13; the league avg. was 79.97.
Hawks PP was 15.21%. The Oilers penalty kill % was 84.42.

All the more important to not take horrible penalties, although the reffing in the league will always make things equitable, and continue to be the better team 5 on 5. |

I do wonder if the officiating will be more early season mode than playoff mode, tbh. I feel like the league would be wise to encourage more of a fast paced, higher scoring playoff this year as opposed to letting them play (and this letting teams clutch and grab). if they do, I have a feeling we will be seeing a lot of the oil's pp, and likely a lot of our own. |

Just go with 3 on 3 if that's the case........that's fast paced. |

D-Cat seems to be a happy-go-lucky kid who's at every single early workout and team activity,he's also a tough bastard for his size but maybe I'm missing something. The kid potted 69 in his first two go-rounds only to find himself skatin' in the bottom six this year and that started early in the season. He practiced with JT and Saad all camp and I have no problem with Kubalik back where he absolutely belongs but I will say this.......if someone thinks a Kane,Strome,Nolander line is better than a Kane,Strome,D-Cat line.....I'll come out of retirement to sell that person a car!LOL! |

The only thing I can think of is that Debrincat is more responsible defensively than Nylander, but he should be with Strome and Kane. And agreed, I'm ok with Kubalik with Toews and I think they switched because Kubalik keeps scoring and Debrincat has lost his scoring touch...for now. But like you said, he's a happy go lucky kid and him and Dach might be a dangerous 3rd line. |

Maybe it was me but I saw D-Cat out with Kampf and Carpenter quite a bit and anybody'll lose their scoring touch skating with offensive black holes. D-Cat had a few nice back-checks but is this now his role? D-Cat practiced with JT all camp and D-Cat could really find his game with a set-up man like JT as Kubalik does but it's game time and the petulance took over once again. I have NO problem with Kubalik being back where he belongs because it's the biggest NO-BRAINER in the world.....D-Cat as a top six sniper with Kane and Strome is the second biggest! |

If Dach can continue on his learning curve, you'd think that would go well with a goal scorer like Dcat. |

Game one should tell the tale. The Kane line will be heavily checked. If Nylander is found wanting they’ll have to 86 him instead of trying to shoehorn him in when the fit isn’t good. Kane has 48 points in the last 25 games against Edmonton. Shouldn’t have to play with an arm tied behind his back. |
