Yeah, I might watch that. I imagine he will be top 6 in ice time so we should get to see a lot of him.

Edit: As Jero said, stacked but with Draisatl's points, I would think there is room for a guy like him in top 6.

Could see it both ways. For instance the KHL always gives young guys, no matter how great of a prospect, limited minutes. Not sure if Germany is the same.

He was on Oilers Now yesterday and stated he didn't expect to play on special teams so we will see.

Who the hell put Reimer in net. We have a chance of loosing to France now. 1-1 in the third.

Edit: They do know that the Oilers have always had better goaltending than Toronto for the entire existence of the franchise.

It is so tough to tell. Going over their team they have talent but they keep saying he is the best guy to come out of Germany in _____ years. I could see him not being special teams ready but I think he will see 15-17 minutes. Just looking at the team but it does depend because he won't play PK and probably not PP

No, just on the main TSN page, they are updating the score on the top middle. You just click refresh. I am sure there is a better way but I have a bunch of things to get done as I am hoping to take off early this weekend. I just made VP and now people pay attention to what I do. Not worth the raise. I could have been gone already in my old job

Right now Russia is up 4 - 0 vs the Swiss in the third and Canada is still 1-1 with 12 minutes in the 3rd. France scored first in the first period on the PP. I was stupid and put money on the game. Even though the odds were only 1.01 which basically means it didn't help me at all. I just figured how the heck could they lose to france?

I know I probably missed this but why isn't Hall, Eberle, Duchene, Stamkos, RNH, Schultz, Weber, Spezza, Phaneuf, Kane, Tavares, Pietralagelo, Bouwmeister... not playing?

Pussies....all of em.

Taveres is obviously still hurt....the others? Well the probably just don't give 2 poops. Which kinda sucks.

That was my favorite part about the Oilers. Guys like Smyth would always answer the call. Hall, Eberle and Nuge should give their heads a shake. We just added a dman, and two forwards. I like Mackinnon and Read. Not to take anything from them but that should have been Duchene, Giroux and Weber.

Now it is going to OT

Ya I mean if you just got knocked out of the playoffs I don't blame them for not going. As for the guys who didn't make the playoffs....I would hope they would go. For a guy like Weber/Duchene who already went to the Olympics this year as well, he get's a free pass IMO

I agree, this tournament should be trashed and the World Cup should be brought back every 4 years, coinciding with the summer Olympics (not at the same time but same year). That way there is a big competition every two years. Then this one can be lost. Until then players are playing for their countries so some people should feel some pride in that. It is suppose to be something they enjoy.

Who they hell is Da Costa? Those were both nice goals. The last one made Canada look silly.
