In 2006, the Oilers lost their first 2 games in San Jose as the Sharks βsmotheredβ them. Oilers came back home to the crazy fans and started a 7 game winning streak. This series is not over yet. Just have to win on Saturday.

After 21 years, I have decided not to renew my Oilers season tickets. They have out priced me. I feel pretty sad about it. I wish this team wasnβt so greedy.

I saw hundreds of Flames fans inside and outside Rogers Place last night. There was some playful chirping but everyone was respectful and thatβs the way it should be.

I donβt even know what to sayβ¦β¦. I canβt wait for the Netflix documentary years from now on the corruption that won the Golden Knights the Cup.
Bob Mackenzie just said that the Oilers have tried to and are trying to trade Manning and Petrovic but nobody is buying...... Stupid Chiarelli!

Tkachuk buried into the back of the net. Takes a huge slash from Adin Hill. Refs canβt help Vegas win if they put them down 5 on 3 so they ignore it. Vegas scores 30 seconds later. Could not be more bias.
Kevin Bieksa said that McDavid interacted a little bit with Tkachuk on the bench during the all star game. Leon Draisaitl did not. Bieksa said he could feel the animosity.

Brendan Smith is a fucking scumbagβ¦ Connor Bedard is out for the rest of the game after this hit. Bedard came up holding his mouth/jaw. Obviously doesnβt look great. Hopefully, itβs just the

WTF?? A fine? Thatβs a 10 game suspension if itβs Evander Kane.
And of course there was no penalty called on the ice because NHL referees are the worst.
There are 2 types of Oilers fans. Ones that think Puljujarvi is Patrice Bergeron and ones that think he is Nail Yakupov. There is no middle.

Whatβs wrong with the top-seeded Dallas Stars?
Nothing, theyβve just run into the defending Stanley Cup champs, healthy and playing their best hockey.

Sure. Thatβs a legit penalty on Nuge. It was also a legit penalty for Danault for holding/interference on McDavid 2 mins earlier. Again, refs decide the game.
Just so Canadians know, we donβt have an $850 million surplus. That is borrowed money Justin Trudeau just gave away. Money that us tax payers will have to pay interest on long after he is gone from office.
A lot of Oilers fans are going to go down a dark rabbit hole over a single loss. Donβt do it. They are locked into second in the division. Itβs going to be ok. Go watch some Seinfeld to cheer yourself up.

Ken Holland's first challenge as the Edmonton Oilers General Manager will be the impossible task of finding someone to replace Toby Rieder's 0 goals.

Pat Maroon talking on the
@spittinchiclets
podcast about being chirped while walking through a mall in Edmonton? If you do that shit, punch yourself in the damn face! Be a better person.
For all the chirping Flames fans did about Darnell Nurseβs contract, they are pretty quiet lately as Huberdeauβs looks even worse now.

On the offside thing, the craziest thing to me is that the linesman didnβt call it offside. No way he would be able to see all that at game speed and say it looked onside.
So, let me get this straight.... They are worried about an emergency backup goalie negatively affecting games. It has only happened 2 or 3 times. However, officials cost teams points multiple times per month and they are just going to ignore it?
The emergency backup goalie procedure for NHL games is expected to be discussed at the general managers meetings that begin next week, NHL Deputy Commissioner Bill Daly said.

Mike Smith played really well for the Oilers last year. I donβt understand why fans donβt think he deserves another contract. Yes it should be a low cap hit and in a backup role but he deserves it. Loyalty is a thing in the NHL.

If

wants to take shots at someone on the Oilers, how about take them on Katz and Nicholson, not the 3rd best player on the team.

The CFL is on life support. 20 years ago, Calgary would sell out every game. Itβs only like 30,000 seats. There is maybe 15,000 for a home opener in perfect weather.
