Put me in loving the Oilers implode category. Great fun for us that remember the 80’s well.

Especially given many of their fans were annoyingly cocky all summer.
I'm not shedding any tears for the Oilers or their fans. Especially the local Manitoba fans, I find them the worst of all

Wrong about Edmonton being more "progressive" than Calgary? Voting-wise, at least, Edmonton seems pretty progressive: https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/calg...-most-conservative-most-progressive-1.6852299
Or wrong about Evander Kane being an individual of poor character?
Right about Evander, wrong about lack of Jacked up trucks and Fack Trudeau stickers in Edmonton

Stand up for your beliefs.
At least Oiler fans are right about something then!
I've always found it odd the need for so many to publicly express their desire to copulate with our head of state. To each their own, I suppose.

Geez politics again.
This place has 2 different sets of rules depending on the POV.

Yeah, I've lived in both cities (albeit a long time ago). I found Edmonton more like Winnipeg in terms of being liberal, the arts etc. Calgary was full cowpoke
Just popped by to take a look at the main boards, and there is exactly 20 Oilers threads on the main trade board. What a gong show and it must be misery for their fans and I love it!
and I love it!
This is how i feel too .

I don’t mind crapping all over the Oilers - they deserve it - but let’s be careful about biting the hand that feeds us. Alberta continues to transfer us billions of $’s in equalization payments and has been doing so for decades.
You can call them rednecks all you want, but they’re footing a lot of our bills.

Not like it was a surprise either. Dobson was a much more rounded prospect. Now just do I am not being Mr revisionist Bouchard was a solid pick at the time it’s just I had Dobson at least 5 spots ahead personally. I loved him in his draft season.
Same. I had him as a top 5 pick. I didn't mind Bouchard as well but felt he was more one dimensional and the Oilers really didn't need more of that with Nurse already on their dcore. For the record I think Bouchard would look better on a team that was more balanced. He could do his puck moving and PP but he'd have proper insulation to mitigate against his weaknesses.
I guess that explains their team though. They have pretty much gone for the all out offense, defense be damned route. Even the best offensive teams that have won could also defend well when needed(Tampa, Chicago and Pittsburgh).
So should we look at Zadorov? 6'6" that's a pretty big d-man and only 28. Stanley + for Zadorov?

When I lived in Edmonton it was kind of the rig pig wallow. Good access to the northern camps.

A pint of dark matter, please.
My comprehension of the value added in copulation stickers on lifted vehicles is limited. Maybe it provides an climatic emotional/physiological assist for the pilot so that they might blast through a snow drift with a great show of agility?
Straight to the washer to sort out the gitch, though, once one returns home.

Every goalie looks like crap in Edmonton. Eventually ppl will realize it's not the goaltending there and see it's just a lack of defensive commitment by the entire team
You can have 2 superstar forwards but if they ain't committed to D then this is what you get.
Oilers need a legit shakeup. Drai or McDavid needs to go for them to create a team, cuz right now it's 2 guys plus a bunch of scrubs

According to the media Zadorov would welcome a trade to Toronto, Klingberg for Zadorov from the Leaf faithful in 3....2...1
