[A] Flames (6-7-1) vs. Blackhawks (9-4-3) - 11.11.11 - 7:30 PM

[the canadian dream]

I wouldn't play him against the Oilers. Q probably will. Oilers speed is going to give us some issues I expect that and there is no reason to play Scott against a team in the Oilers who have very little if any muscle for intimidation. Guys like Mayers and Carcillo will do just fine in that department for us.



I really don't know what to expect from the Oilers. They are currently looking like a team that might fall back down to earth a little. But yah they are fast and young. they remind me of the Hawks 3 years ago a little.

I don't think he should play Sunday, give him the week off and put him back in next Friday against the Flames again.



He's played fine the past 2 games, Oilers are quick though, Lepisto would fit better. This is what the revolving door at #6 is for.

11 minutes last night, and almost 10 tonight. He's played well with the extra time. You were even slamming him a few games ago so knock if off? Sometimes I wonder if you remember what you type you type so much. LOL

That is not true... I said something along the lines of "if John Scott is playing 2:45 of ice time over Olesz, why the **** is he dressed?"



I was slamming Q's decision to dress him over other players AT FORWARD to only play 3 minutes or less.



EDIT: Why mess with a winning lineup? Play him against the SpOilers!

well as long as he's not a detriment to the team, IE he's skating, it doesn't matter if he or Lepisto is in the line up IMO. The more consistency in TOI the better his game should be.

Who ever the idiots are selecting the "Star of the Game" should pull their head out of their ass or go watch fucking Golf.

It seems like if there's a choice btw a core player and non-core player, they pick the core player to keep the masses happy. Real hockey fans aren't fooled.

So does he play Sunday? Oilers are a very fast team! They could have easily had a different out come in Detroit tonight.

Yes! Pair him with O'Donnell.



Actually, I'd sit Scott, play Lepisto with Montador.
