PRE-SEASON Game Preview/Thread - Oil @ Nucks

October 4, 2024

CANUCKS (2-3-0) @ Oil (3-3-0)

7:00 p.m. PT; SNP

It's the final game of the final winner-take-all division final preseason series! So much is riding on this home and home matchup. So much stuff, we're not allowed to say even how unimportant the stuff is.

Is this a division playoff rematch or a preview of a division playoff rematch? Good and useless question.

The Nucks started the preseason strong, dipped and drooped a little and have lost 3 straight. Oil started ok, got beat badly 3 times in a row, as is their wont and finally beat our new nemesis, the Krakling.

Last game in tOiltown, the Oil barely beat the Nucks AHL+ roster. This final game of the Nucks extended preseason will decide the fate of the preseason series, the regular season and our moods until May. No big deal.

Typed this before... but today's the day. The day we see JT in a Nucks uni for the 1st time. This preseason. Exciting! Maybe. Taco could be saving him until after the pretend-Olympics-nations break.

Game Day 'Battle' Hymn

It's that time of the year. Or near to it. Time to give the Oil a glib spanking. Or a glim one.

Go Coconuts!

COMMENTS

Comment System How-To

New NM, new comment system. Still uses words and stuff. Hover over the icons to see what they do. 

The most vital function is image embedding. Paste the link to the image in the comment box. When the comment is posted, the image appears. Most of  the time. 

NOTE: Remove the non-image name jibberish. If the image link has any stuff after the file extension - usually a ? with directives like: woo.gif?size=480 blah blah - delete up to and including the ? - simples.

GIF it up for Westy! Or still life in rum.
NOTE: Comments refresh every 30 seconds. Not fast enough for most of our lightening round contestants. We are working to increase the refresh speed. Just... not working too hard... because NM labour guidelines. Thanks for being patient!
