Glass houses, etc.

That franchise will be just fine. That arena location is chefs kiss and it's a really nice facility.

I hate f*** Vegas as much as the next guy but it's a really solid edition to the nhl
We shall see especially with baseball coming next year and basketball in the near future the residents will have a lot more options.

They have literally millions of tourists walking by every year.

Even if the locals split their focus there's enough northern US/ Canadian visitors to pick up the slack

Each tourist spends $500/day and stays 4 nights. $2000.

At a state level it Justifies giving free hockey tickets to any tourist if they stay an 5th night.

Serves him right for crafting all those magical rings of power.

Three Rings for the Elven-kings under the sky,
Seven for the Dwarf-lords in their halls of stone,
Nine for Mortal Men, doomed to die,
One for the Dark Lord on his dark throne
In the Land of Mordor where the Shadows lie.
One Ring to rule them all, One Ring to find them,
One Ring to bring them all and in the darkness bind them.
In the Land of Mordor where the Shadows lie.

As mac would say, I have a shirt for that.

Nothing warms my cockles then the Oilers losing back to back.
Agreed :nod:
Waaaay too early to count anyone out or anoint a champion.
Edmonton got a great second half from Skinner last season but I’m not convinced he’s gonna repeat that again.
Oilers are going as far as the goaltending takes them and this year I don’t believe it will be as good as last season.

What were the SN panel's excuses for the Oilers last night? I didn't watch the game.

If they lose to Calgary tonight they'll have to put the city on suicide watch (or at least the fans who post on HFboards).

I said during our PGT yesterday that if the Hawks get some goaltending they wont be an easy out, the Oilers found this out tonight.
I loved they way they played against us. People were bitching that we didn't trounce them, but the system, the players willingness to employ it and the vets they brought in are going to make them a tough opponent this year.

If Bro can find a way to play like he did for us last year in a starter role, I think they'll be in the playoff fight up to the tdl and they might actually be a buyer.
