Five games in twelve days and Rogers Place opens the run on October
FIVE games in TWELVE days and Rogers Place kicks it all off October 16?? 😱🔥 boys we are FED this fall. Home ice first vs Utah, then the whole west coast swing - Seattle, Anaheim, San Jose, LA all on the road back to back. That stretch is gonna tell us everything about this group tbh.
Already told my boss to book me off that week, might even make the trip down for one of the California games, flights from here ain't cheap tho 😤 ah well, nowt to do. Who else is going to the opener?? Rogers Place gonna be LOUD 💪🙌
One love, one side ❤️
Utah at home first?? easy W, book it 🔥 west coast swing will test us but boys are gonna feast 💪 OILERS LETS GO 🙌
On the terraces since I was a kid.
Chloe, easy W? Depends who starts in goal October 16. That's the first thing I check. Moneyline feels short, Utah +puck line might be the value there. 💸
Up one week, down the next. Classic.
My body is ready for 5 games in 12 days but my liver filed a complaint already 🤣 Jack out here checking goalies like it's his taxes lol, I just want October 16 to hurry up 🍿
Hold my pint.
Chloe chill, Utah ain't a gimme 😅 home opener nerves are real. Road swing is where we earn our keep tbh, LA and Seattle back to back trips?? my couch is gonna hate me 🔥💪
Maybe I'm reading this wrong, but everyone's already circling October 16 like Utah is just a warm-up act 😅 last season we finished 14th with 93 points, that's hardly a team that gets to pencil in easy W's. I'd honestly be more nervous about the home opener than the road trip... or am I way off here? 🙏 still learning this stuff
Learn something new every day.
Nick_Believer, nah you're not off mate 😅 93 points and 14th says Utah gets respect. But tbh that road swing is where I remember playoff runs dying - was at a bar in Victoria during the Anaheim trip years ago, saw us fold in the third and nearly threw my pint 🤬 Seattle first though, that barn is LOUD now. Who's making the trek to LA? 🔥💪
Heart with the team, head on pause.
Back in my day we'd call a stretch like this a season-defining gauntlet and everybody'd quietly panic 😄 I've watched as long as I have and you'll get it, October standings mean nothing, remember a couple years ago everyone pencilled in the Cali trips as easy points and we limped home humbled. Nick's got it right, respect Utah first, let the road swing sort itself out. Ask me again on October 16 😉
