Oilers can F off w their 10 game streak haha

Honestly good for their fans. They must be pumped. Remarkable turn around.

Back to the hate - hope they start to lose now! I think at 10 wins they’re officially the hottest team right now?

Have you seen the Oilers schedule?
For January they only play on Tuesday Thursday and Saturdays ... no B2B must be nice.
Then in February when they finally get a B2B they have 2 days off before and after.
But lets see how good they are at the end of Feb to April. where they have to play 7 B2B and a few 3 games in 4 days.
To close out the season they have to play 6 games in 9 days right before the playoffs start.

Would like to see how Edmonton faired without their number 1 winger for 15 games and then their number 1 center as well for a game at least .

I'm going to ponder on that. Perhaps a word into St. Lemmy will help?

Harassment on an app he can delete anytime. How thin skinned are ppl these days.

People can be thin skinned these days, I agree. Where we disagree is on who is so thin skinned that they deserve our criticism: the people who are distressed by receiving death threats, or the people so thin skinned that they respond to a slight against their team by sending death threats to that athlete’s family.

And the internet is enough of our everyday lives that an inability to be on it is considered a significant poverty impairment, and denial of access to it is a legitimately tough test of Freedom of Speech considerations in America.

I can block phone numbers, does that mean I’m thin skinned if I get distressed by death threats to my family on my phone? Sure, they can just keep making new phone numbers, but I can keep blocking them.

Same with emails, right? I can just keep blocking those emails. I can just close my mail browser after all.

Or when delivered to my face, I mean. They weren’t really serious, just angry that they lost a lot of money at the casino. And yes, at the time, that’s what they’d tell us — don’t be so thin skinned, they’re just blowing off steam, it’s understandable to be upset if you lose money, etc.

The internet is real life enough that death threats should not be tolerated, and I personally don’t see any problem whatsoever if someone is upset to receive them.

Anyone serious about killing you will not issue a death threat. They'll just f***ing kill you.

Completely and totally false. If that were true, it would also hold that anyone serious about killing themselves would never say "I'm going to kill myself", they'd just f***in' kill themselves.

Also, anyone serious about killing a bunch of strangers would never say "I'm going to kill a bunch of strangers", etc.

If red flags had no better than a random correlation to the acts they warn of, they wouldn't be red flags.

The problem with Nylander and that contract is that everytime now the Leafs lose a game and he doesn't have points, he's gonna get ripped on like he is tonight.

Hey, I can't fault the leafs, the Wings came in just 90 minutes from their arrival time -- clearly they were still warmed up, while the leafs were cold from having to have waited over a DAY(!) since their last game.
