I looked it up. VO has been on the ice for 52gf and 51ga. So you are right, he is technically a net positive. At 5v5 that looks like... 26gf and 41ga or a -15 at 5v5. Bryson who this board hates, is the only player worse at 5v5 with a -19 goal differential. 

VO is a pp specialist who is a major liability at 5v5 and should be moved on from. Jack Quinn can take his pp spot, or really anyone else we want.

Remember that PP goals don't count toward +/-

I'm aware.

In my sarcasm I was agreeing with your original point. Thanks for the added detail, though.

Going out to watch the game and eat wings at a local watering hole for my dads bday.  I’d like to thank the NHL for making it near impossible to watch their product. The owner of the bar said he’ll stream the game on his phone and project it to the TV.  Maybe.  JFC. 

Where you going. We are basically neighbors??

I gotta hand it to Donny G because he sticks to his philosophy of not sacrificing winning consistently for the sake of one win. There’s only one way to gain experience and that’s to experience it. Let’s hope they learn a thing or two.

This has the feels of a back and forth game where Edmonton ties it at 4 with 5 seconds left in the 3rd period and we are all mad. Then In overtime on a 4 on 3 powerplay Jeff skinner scores a whacky backhanded goal on his knees or something and the place goes nuts

Lots of McDavid fans in Oiler Jerseys.  ESPN spent the entire pregame talk on McDavid. 
 

Let’s make them go home sad.  
 

Muscle Weight.   Let’s see more great hockey and get the W.  

We need lots of OFFENCE given depleted D…..Eh?
