Well done Sean thank you!!



Good to see Pods coming around. Not a good move for the Canucks to let him go.

Such is life.

Well.. we have been way more competitive .. and we do have a # 1 Goalie is Dostal...

the makings of 2 or 3 ... #2 D men in Baby Z and Minty along LaCombe with Luneau - Helleson the part of 3 & 4's so that is a strong backend. Perhaps there is a #1 we could grab.. but I'm cool with what we have ...

It's up front where we are having a hard time... McTavish is Galchenyuk redux.. which is a real problem... Leo needs to really ramp his game up... and Z needs some injury luck... Cutter I'm not worried about at all.
Although Terry is an out and out Stud.

The bigger hinderance has been Cronin as coach as he hates offense and has no idea how to deploy talent anywhere on the ice.

Get rid of Cronin and we are in the mix for a WC spot... For sure.

Oilers are still what they’ve been for a decade now. McDavid, Drai, and a bunch of shit. They were lucky last playoffs. They won’t be as lucky this year.

LA looks like a rejuvenated team and as of today it is looking like the Oilers will face the Kings once again in the first round.


Please Lord Baby Jesus: no.

Yes, how could a team of poop with only 2 good players win 16 games in a row, make the Finals and almost complete a 3-0 comeback in the Finals and be considered the favorites to win the Cup this year.

Turd and DannyWood are too dense to realize what is actually happening now.

“Experts” have been picking the oilers to win for ten years now. They got lucky and came close once. They won’t again.

Most of the time the bookmakers get it right, and they currently have the Oilers on top. Having said that, it is indeed the most difficult championship to win in all of pro sports, so even the favorite Oilers are at around +700 to win it all. +700 is not a good bet to make.

For you to be so cynically confident in your "anyone but" opinion is pretty weak sauce.

Can I just say how much respect I have lost for McDavid to take a weird McDonalds sponsorship, him and Matthews. Like the guy is pulling in 12 mil a year and still decides to take a sponsorship with a horrible company that's insistent on making our youth more and more obese which isn't helped my the "McDavid Double Big Mac". Like be a better role model, there's just no world where he needs the money.

You can say whatever you want, but it doesn't prevent you from being wrong.

McDonalds isn't the culprit, it's the fatties that eat there 10x per week. (kinda like the gun vs the person wielding the gun, etc.) We used to devour protein powder, boneless skinless chicken, creatine, smilax, eggs, pasta....whatever...and yup, we'd go for some Big Macs and QPs all the time. Everyone had abs, everyone could run for days, everyone was supremely healthy.

Instead of trying to enforce your BS on others that are living better than you, maybe just...I don't know...don't go to McDonalds.

These guys will do anything for cash. Personally I have a harder time with guys endorsing gambling sites.

I hate any endorsement deal. If a person is really that weak minded that seeing a celebrity endorse something in a commercial and they go buy it then that is a bigger issue. Any product that has a poopty celeb endorsing it i avoid.


As for McDonald's, I haven’t eaten there in over a decade and have no plans to do so any time in the future.
