And I thought once the Ice District was some what complete the Oilers would get an ASG or the draft, I’d rather have the draft.

Toronto was supposed to host the WCoH this year which got cancelled because of the Russian invasion of Ukraine. So they gave them the ASG instead.

As for Edmonton, we're probably looking at a draft potentially first? The climate is a consideration. But if we're talking ASG it won't be before 2026 or 2027.

Skinner says hold my beer

Oh yes, that's right, the Oilers lose something as meaningless as an ASG and you show up to crap on Skinner.

Which IMO is bullshit. Edmonton hasn't had an ASG in over 30 years, and Calgary over 40 years. You'd think they should have been considered long ago. But no, the players are pu**ies and want warmer climate. I'm so done with this ASG crap. I am starting to feel like I'm turning into Torts now. Shoot me please.

McDavid pressures Holland to trade for Karlsson after All Star Game success
honestly it's an underrated factor. They didn't seem to gel therre but if McDavid liked the experience, like he felt that there was something brewing there, he could give his opinion. I bet every GM we've had has listened to McDavid a lot. I bet McDavid always makes his views known as well.

Its 5C in Edmonton today. Could wear shorts outside in the sun. Was just out doing some yard work and then in the sun room. Hot, just solar heat.

Too cold here? nah.

Just epitomizes his whole season.
The man is drunk. Give him some benefit of doubt. heh

i'd rather that all our stars do absolutely no work at all at the ASG and just take er easy. Take a break dudes its all good. Much season and playoffs ahead.

Who would be even giving effort in this? Clayton Keller? Tarasenko? Those guys will be golfing.

I mean that's kinda how the cookie's gonna crumble. Montreal just hosted the draft. Nashville is next, then probably another 2 or 3 US cities afterwards. So maybe a 2027 draft?

As for the ASG, I'm probably being optimistic that in 3 or 4 years time another Canadian city will host the ASG. The last ASG in Canada was in Ottawa in 2012. So I guess if you extrapolate that you're potentially looking at 2036. :confused:

I couldn't care less about the ASG. My point was that Draisaitl's effort today mirrored his lethargic effort all year long. So if he's drunk today, he must have been drunk (or hungover) many games this year. ;)

My point was why would Drai make any effort at this all weekend? I wouldn't. he never does ftr care about breaking a sweat at these. I don't blame him one iota. The kind of playes knocking themselves out at these kind of allstar things are those that are insecure in their Allstar designation.

For all we know Drai won the shots compeition. The other one...
