GDT: Tank Night-Montreal Canadiens vs. Edmonton Oilers-9:30pm EST RDS(HD),TSN Habs

[McRae83]

Hey there Habs fan in Edmonton just wondering where do the Habs players stay while they are in town? Any other Edmonton Hab fan's know? Hotel MacDonald is what I'm guessing but not sure.

Why dangle Gagner and ruin the potentially prodigious top 5 they will have when they can just sign FA Dmen instead?
(3/4-)

hahahaha This thread is awesome.

I actually do hope we (oilers) win. Because I do not want to pick up another forward, and if we draft 2nd, we will most likely take a BPA forward.

You guys made me laugh so hard with those pics haha

Ahh well, good game tonight, hopefully no injuries.

C'est la vie!

[Ollie Williams]

Regulation loss pls. Don't even show up.

[Jepprey]

Haha. love the GDT. I thought I was lost for a second when i read "Go Oilers Go" for every post.

I have no idea why we don't have a GDT up yet. Maybe nobody gives a crap anymore. lol.

I'm headed to the game tonight. I love me some Oil vs Habs. Got to meet Carey last time he was in town.

With that said, Go Oilers Go. I'm sick of being last place. You guys can have it.

In true Habs fashion, we will take a two goal lead into the second period, trade goals and in the third, allow three unanswered tallies and call it a night.

[Dr Gonzo]

Gomez is apparently playing....TANK ON!

[Railman]

Tonight is a must lose game. We'd take second to last place!

If we must suck, at least let's suck with style.

[WeThreeKings]

Give Gomez 60 minutes of Ice Time.

[LouisJCloutier]

GO! OILERS GO!

Come on Randy you can loose this !

[FisherKing]

I wonder if this game will make it onto "Greatest Tank Battles" on the Military Channel.

[JohnLennon]

Oilers have a better top 6, their defense is as bad as ours, and we have the better goalie. Should be a very hard-fought game for who can play worse.

With his horrible 12-20-3 record, his credentials as he leads us into this specific tank battle tonight as our commander in chief are impeccable.

Unquestionably the most hilarious GDT I've ever read. Kudos to all including our Edmonton fan participants for your contributions. Classic stuff!!!

[EvilDee]

I think it's the right time for Cole to get his revenge on Emelin !

[Habsfan18]

Huge game for the tank tonight.

I know, I'm captain obvious.

As we reflect on possibly finishing 2nd worst team in the league, let's read again this in-depth analysis from before the beginning of the season: http://www.rds.ca/canadien/chroniques/326771.html

[Dave Chung]

Anyone notice that fans from different teams get along more on the GDT when their respective teams are trying to outsuck each other??

It's actually pretty entertaining as i am sitting here at work (from an Oilers persepctive at least)

here's a crazy idea: Maybe we're not really that bad of a team when healthy? If you add Markov we also take away Weber... addition by subtraction

Also if we still have JM we won't be in such a tanking position lol. That said I hope we get Yakupov or Grigs now, as much as I love to win haah.

For those who can't read French, I won't translate the whole thing but all you need to know is contained in the last paragraph. Quote: "This team's defense (2011-12) is clearly superior to 1993".

Even if you factor in Markov, that was a bold statement from our friend Bertrand. Of course, now you read him and he claims this is the worst team ever...

yup, as long as it'S not career ending, an injury would sure help

Yeah I'm not up on the Montreal media, so I guess, knowing that he says the Habs are the worst team ever, I can see what your point was lol.

[zzoo]

Go Oil Go !
No Habs No !

I hope that Oilers win 7-6 in regulation.
