One can hope it stays that way - NewYorkNuck
It's kinda funny, no doubt, but I think too much is made out of the Oilers for no particular reason. Canadian internet hysteria. Colorado and Tampa kinda went through similar phases with a bunch of high picks before they won. MacKinnon himself said, the year they finally won, that he hadn't won poop in the league and it was his ninth year in the league.
Stamkos was 31 before Tampa finally figured it out and he won a Stanley Cup. It was his thirteenth year in the league. McBaby is 26 years old, he's been in the league eight years, they have a lot of time to figure it out. Tampa made the finals in 2015 and then missed the playoffs two years later. Winning is not easy!!!
The pressure to win in Canada is crazy compared to the USA. Which is, in part, why a lot of players don't want to play up there. Yes they want to win, clearly, but being asked the same question on a daily basis by the likes of Mark Spector and Gene Principe gets a little old, I would imagine. |

Oilers have a lousy roster build. Cannot keep hiding big warts with scoring & revolving door coaches. |

Nice blog but the Oilers suck gopher balls. Their goaltending sucks, their team defense sucks, their cap situation sucks, their GM sucks. They have sucked for a long time and they will continue to suck for a long time.

Oilers go through coaches like they are lemons thinking if you keep squeezing you can keep getting more juice out of the roster.
Holland & predecessors are the biggest problem. Drafting has sucked. Total upheaval is needed & to tear it down. Hanging on to dreams that McD & Drai will win anything on their own is laughable. It is broke so fix it. |

No team is giving up on winning this early in the season. Not the Flames, OiL, Ducks or even the Sharks. It’s why the Canucks have to keep playing harder and smarter. |

I'm doing that now, slow day for me and it's cold outside. It's actually pretty normal. Which surprises me. Of the teams that came into the league around when Vancouver did.
Buffalo - 12
Philadelphia - 15
Los Angeles - 9
Pittsburgh - 8
Minny/Dallas - 9
St. Louis - 8
Flyers - Pacificgem
Is this your idea of being productive?

I had just seen the rumor to Perry and the Hawks.
It is being speculated that he banged Bedard's mom on the recent road trip for moms.
I guess that could be a little awkward hearing "Hey dad pass the puck here".
I have no idea if it is true but this is going to get funny as hell. |

Heard something about Oilers looking at Perry but can't see it lol
Is that actually a thing about Bedards Mom?? |

I have no idea but it would actually make sense. I think Serevali reported this morning Chigago are taking the no nonsense attitude this year after the past years of shame, and Perry side is saying it is a personal matter.
Then I have seen other posts from fans claiming while Connor was slipping it between goalies legs Corey was slipping it between Moms legs. |

I think what may have happened is one game someone said to Perry "You are a big pr1ck, and Connors mom misunderstood that.
