Players to Watch

Game Breakers

Spezza is becoming the player we all wanted him to be, his two-way game has improved drastically. Spezza's skill of handling the puck opens up space which creates scoring chances for his teammates. Last year he was the 1st star of both Oilers games. Alfredsson is still "God" in Ottawa, leading the team in points. He doesn't look like he's regressed at all. Leclaire has done a good job so far in this early season but will be looking for a bounce back game after allowing soft goals in his last start.

Penner is having a bounce back season under a new coach, he leads the Oilers in points. He has been a nightmare to opposing defense-man with his skill and big frame. Khabibulin is having an up and down season but at anytime he can still steal a game himself, even at the age of 36. Comrie has been a great player for the Oilers lately. This is scary for us, he's hot, scoring, and an ex-sen. It seems for whatever reason, every ex-sen returns with a bang.

Probation (1st) GDT - Subject to review and comment by community.

Lehner · 11-09-2009, 06:16 PM

I will update the Lines ups and news throughout the day tomorrow. This is my first GDT in my life. So please if you see anything I can do better or anything wrong please tell me.

danishh · 11-09-2009, 06:31 PM

this gdt sucks

danishh should do one

(actually, its pretty awesome. I guess you had no choice though after all the criticism. Good call on the marquee - i thought i couldnt do that because it was an HTML function, but i guess its built into the vDB functions as well)

Kamina · 11-09-2009, 06:40 PM

Stacking the top line... not liking it.

Manny* · 11-09-2009, 06:40 PM

Really great GDT. Go Sens go.

SenatorsFC · 11-09-2009, 06:42 PM

You need haiku's in your GDT. Else it's an automatic fail.

Its hard to change it completely, Danish's is very neat and tidy, so I took the same kind of layout.

But I disagree on no originality, a lot of the writing is my own, and I added items that he didnt use.

**Ralph Malfredsson** · 11-09-2009, 06:59 PM

Thanks for posting the Spezza goal deking Souray
Here's hoping for a big game from Brian Lee

Red Dragon · 11-09-2009, 07:02 PM

Being a Sens fan in the Edmonton area I was extremely excited for the game til i remembered i have to work during the game. Was at the game Lee scored though still remember Vermette coming of the boards and passing it to Lee.

DG · 11-09-2009, 07:03 PM

When will the real GDT be posted?

Perhaps by danishh?

Ugh, I don't like being outside the playoffs, even if its only November.

Pabst Plays Westboro · 11-09-2009, 07:40 PM

I'm ****ing tired of crap like this for GDT's.

In other news,

Yeah baby!

Go Sens Go!

Envoye!

Percy LeSueur · 11-09-2009, 09:00 PM

This GDT needs a unflattering picture of Dany. Maybe one of him making that stupid frowny face he does.

Besides that... great job on the GDT.

Golden · 11-09-2009, 09:14 PM

Teams Dany Heatley doesn't want to play for: Take 2.

Apaharn · 11-09-2009, 09:16 PM

GDT needs a sarcastic title referring to the obvious topic.

But good job on the GDT.
