Not much or any info out there yet about rosters for tonight's game. Jim Jamieson offered what could be considered a little bit of light on the Canucks' end, saying that at practice on Wednesday the following Canucks forwards were lined up: Sedins-Burrows, Pinizzotto-Lapierre-Nolan, Sturm-Ebbett-Samuelsson and Higgins-Malhotra-Hansen. Jason Botchford mentioned that Vigneault rolled out the artillery on D: Bieksa-Hamhuis, Salo-Edler and Tanev-Ballard. Even so, this is not necessarily the roster that will play against the Oilers, as I read somewhere that AV said he'd ice a "mixed bag."
On Edmonton's side, no one knows. We might see Darcy Hordichuk (golf clap). We won't see Ben Eager as he suffered a concussion from being hit by one of his own teammates at the Joey Moss Cup. Maybe we'll see a Ryan Smyth-Nugent-Hopkins-Eberle line that beat Chicago on Tuesday. Edit: Roster updates after the jump.
No matter who plays, expect speed, skill and violence. Lineups will be revealed sometime tomorrow.
Thanks to Kent Basky for the heads up:

Apparently, Cody Hodgson is playing as well.
Have a butt-load of time to kill? How about watching 41 minutes of a retro game between the Oilers and Canucks from 1984?

Big Guns
Would kind of like to see the Nucks’ big guns so I can see how the Oil’s defense (forwards too) handles them. (Also, I’ll be at the game, but that’s irrelevant. ;-) The Nuge with Ebs and Smytty is looking silky smooth, but when the season starts, Hall and Ebs will be inseparable. Also interested to see how the rookie Oiler forwards stand up to the Nucks’ prime-time D.
From what the local radio guys said
Its more the guys trying to make an impression than the guys that are the vets. So, the Oil might have more guys that were roster players last year than the Nucks

Suffered a concussion
at the hands of one of his own team mates? I guess everybody thinks the same of Eager as we do.
I'll do it tomorrow, that seems like a pretty good idea to me
What's wrong with tomorrow, I'm watching him but who's watching me?

And it’s not really relevant to anything right now, just using it as an expression ;)

So much for sound hockey-nomics: When I checked @capgeek today , the Maple Leafs have a higher payroll than the Vancouver Canucks.

Good thing Liles contract is over this year. If not, there’s no way they would be able to pay Franson, who’s due to be a RFA after this season.

4-2 Oilers, Hall.

Canucks win 4-3
Oiler fans don’t quite know how to react afterwards. Mr MANcari with the GWG, off a CoHo pass, as AV ( is it him, or Bones ?) puts Mancari up with them instead of Zorba
