Huggy Bear Posted October 11, 2023 Share Posted October 11, 2023 Great news on both Mikheyev and Soucy. Also interesting note about Tocchet on Garland 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DownUndaCanuck Posted October 11, 2023 Share Posted October 11, 2023 Blueger out for game 1 when everyone was saying he just has a bruise, and Allvin acquires a similar center in Lafferty right after the injury happened...makes you think they really know how serious the injuries are and don't let on at all to the media. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup. I still like having both of them when that time comes. He should recover soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bure10Kuzmenko96 Posted October 11, 2023 Share Posted October 11, 2023 So the home opener roster has Soucy on it. Maybe he's playing after all! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

6of1_halfdozenofother Posted October 12, 2023 Share Posted October 12, 2023 So if Thatcher Demko has the flu and puked in his mask, and there's a flu running rampant in the locker room, what are the chances that they've spread it to the Oilers to the point where a bunch of them Edmonton guys get a nasty flu for their home opener and have to sit out or play like a stale can of piss water? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We can only hope. I'm sure they'll be motivated to avenge getting slammed by the Canucks like that. But that was something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since we can't play 8 defenceman at once, that was never going to be the on ice roster. He's been skating though and was a game day decision though so sounds like he's close.

Once all maximums are hit to set their thresholds, then the cap games begin. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is a classic tolvanen scenerio of management overthinking things imo. likely cap related as we couldn't ice a full lineup for the home opener. I was curious about the waivers too as there were some RHD maybe worth taking a flyer on or at least putting a claim in on as there is no guarantee to get a player unless other teams pass on said player first Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
