Joey Moss Cup

I've been a bit worried about Joey Moss since last spring.  As I wrote when I said farewell to Dustin Penner:

Most of all, he took care of Joey Moss.  That's a picture, taken by Gene Principe, of Joey Moss' new running shoes, a gift from Dustin PennerRyan Jones tweeted shortly after the trade was announced:

I hope that someone has stepped in and stepped up for Joey in Dustin's absence, and tonight we might get to see who that is. 

The Joey Moss Cup returns - for Edmonton fans, it's the first look at the new team and a chance to bring their families along for a game.  The Oilers price the tickets at $12 in order to bring more people in and in the end it all it all goes to charity.  The game and the man are both fantastic.

Here are the lineups, courtesy of the Oilers team site:

Blue:

23 Linus Omark - 93 Ryan Nugent-Hopkins - 91 Magnus Paajarvi
28 Ryan Jones - 68 Tyler Pitlick - 46 Ryan Keller
75 Antti Tyrvainen - 67 Gilbert Brule - 51 Philippe Cornet
16 Darcy Hordichuk - 42 Ryan O`Marra - 37 Lennart Petrell

13 Cam Barker - 77 Tom Gilbert
41 Taylor Chorney - 86 Kirill Tulupov
87 David Musil - 81 Taylor Fedun
78 Martin Gernat - 48 Alex Plante

30 Olivier Roy
38 David LeNeveu


White:

4 Taylor Hall - 57 Anton Lander - 14 Jordan Eberle
94 Ryan Smyth - 20 Eric Belanger - 56 Teemu Hartikainen
55 Ben Eager - 54 Chris Vandevelde - 61 Tobias Rieder
60 Tanner House - 66 Ryan Martindale - TBA

5 Ladislav Smid - 24 Theo Peckham
25 Andy Sutton - 44 Corey Potter
80 Martin Marincin - 88 Brandon Davidson
82 Jeremie Blain - 58 Jeff Petry

34 Yann Danis
1 Tyler Bunz

 

I think Joey will present the cup to team White - they seem to have the lion's share of the defensive depth and better goaltending.

No Horcoff, eh? Hmmmm …

I’m off to the game myself, should be fun. It’s the one ticket I can actually afford.

With the added bonus that the money goes to charity and not Khabibulin.

Nice anthem by Joey. It was nice seeing Smyth and Gilbert there with him.

Peaches from Martindale. That was a nice play by Petry to open up to receive the pass.

Martindale has some really good offensive instincts, hope his feet catch up to his skill.

Yeah, that stride is goofy looking. Long legs like that and he’s got a short little choppy back and forth stride.

Omark with a nice pick in the defensive zone to clear. Must be that “terrible” defense working.

Davidson was just turned into a turnstile again.

Paajarvi with a goal on a stinker by Danis. Looked like Deslauriers there.

Brule is faster because of 6 pounds?

Alrighty.

Good lord was that pretty. Well done Harski!

He undressed Gernat doing it too.

beauty goal, although Leneveu was too deep in his net.

And Gernat was just standing around watching

Tyler Pitlick and Anton Lander move so much better than advertised.

Tulupov with the hit on Eager, funny stuff.

Oops, Roy getting out of the puck’s way on that one.

O’marra doesn’t even score on empty nets.
