Blue Jackets @ Oilers Game 23 Lines And Pairings

Your goal was prettier.  No, your goal was prettier.  Aw, shucks.

  • The Oilers look to make it two in a row with a victory over the Columbus Blue Jackets tonight.
  • Sergei Bobrovsky and Devan Dubnyk are tonight's starting goaltenders. Unless there's a tire fire in the first period, don't look for Ilya Bryzgalov until at least Thursday's game.
  • Justin Schultz is a coin flip for tonight's game. UPDATE: Justin Schultz is a go tonight.
  • Remember, you're a good person. You didn't ask for a 5-15-2 start to the season, and it's not a reflection of what kind of person you are. We're all in this together. Deep breaths work wonders.
  • Check back for updated rosters during the day.
  • UPDATE - No Arcobello again.  Again.  The line of Joensuu - Acton - Gazdic will continue to warm everyone's heart with laughter and tenderness.
