Are there other teams that crank up techno music, etc during practises like Toronto does? I remember their players asking for it as well as a relaxed dress code.'
Kind of the same way they play in crunch time. Relaxed.

Rasmus knows it's great, but I like the rivalry answer lol. The rivalry actually means something to him.

Salim Valji cited the new room as a reason the Flames will be good this year on a TSN segment last night.

Hockey on sportsnet. I haven't even taken down my Easter decorations.
National anthems just got worse, now that I've heard Australia's.

I just thought it was nice for the Yotes players to have a home game in a real professional arena.
Considering he plays in a shithole aka the SaddleDump, it makes sense for the goof.
Another season where he yaps and acts tough to opposing players while hiding behind the officials at the same time. Too bad for him that the Oilers don't have a small player anymore for him to headbutt.

So it's really early, but the Yotes SUCK.
Edit: Again, super early, but they, the Yotes, look helpless.

I know its only preseason, so nothing matters. But what the heck are the Kings thinking with their goalies? They dont have the stoutness on the back end anymore to handle such sketchy keepers.

He is a massive homer
Him, Derek Wills (Who cried over CGY after a playoff series loss against ANA on the radio), and David Amber are massive Flames dong suckers
That is absolutely pathetic. Canadas top team never shown on TVTomorrow, leafs, flames, canucks on Sportsnet. Noilers.

Flames’ defensive zone coverage, according to players, will be very different to last season going from man-on-man to zone coverage.
Looks like they are changing as well

What does that have to do with 3 homers? lol
That is a business move that costs less than one Starbucks a month. If somebody wants to see more behind the scene's stuff, etc, not bad.
Netflix costs $22 a month
I have not subscribed, but was going to today. It's $56 one time yearly payment. They are showing their live scrimmage today for example
Wondering if I can still find a coupon code. Looks like I missed a 50% off one 10 days ago

i was responding to the last line the the post i was quoting, Sorry i should have erased the first part.
I think what is frustrating is that it used to be free online or on Sportsnet so fans didn't have to pay any additional funds to watch meaningless preseason games.
Now we have to pay for Oilers+ to have the same access that we had for free 1 year ago. Its similar to when we started having to pay 5 cents for bags at the grocery store when we used to get them for free. Yes, the cost isn't really prohibitive but it's one more thing we have to pay to consume Oilers hockey.

So I guess that answers my question, we have to pay for Oilers + to get the game at 4pm tomorrow.

Had an awesome experience at the Yotes/Kings game in Melbourne. The view was super obstructed but thats what you get when you put a rink in a tennis stadium. At least 6 of the 8 goals I believe were on our visible side of the ice.
The pace of the game was better than I expected and was special seeing Cooley play his first game in an NHL uniform, especially seeing that goal live. The fight was a bonus.
I went with 3 Aussies and one of them said that it would have been cool to make a bit more of a connection to Australians by maybe having the in house announcer as an Australian, and the fact that they didn't make a point when Jordan Spence assisted on a goal. I doubt most of the crowd even knew there was an Australian playing in the game as there was no cheer when his name got announced.

Nurse should give him another beatdown this year like the rookie tourney.
He once called us frauds or something after tkachuk blindsided kassian twice.

I am actually really enjoying Oilers +. Lots of stuff in there that you would never see otherwise. Can keep you pretty busy.
