Pre-Game Talk: Chipchee Redeemed

[yukoner88]

game four I barbecued steak after the win. Game five I barbecued steak after the win. Game six I barbecued steak after the win. Got the lucky Alberta beef for game seven . Would have done an entire brisket Monday if it wasn’t for damn work.View attachment 885961

Show us pictures of the grill marks after, you glorious bastard you

I f***ing love this one and farewell to the 2011 playoffs stands out as well with One by U2 as the song. They had an incredible montage guy who they let go when they moved to Sportsnet and the quality dipped tremendously for a bit. Either they hired him back or got someone new because they're back to being really good.

Yeah the 2010 one is a personal favourite of mine. It's tremendous.

Would like to see Los Lobos show up at Commonwealth if this all works out.

Love how two oiler fans hunted down Lou Diamond Philips and got him to say 'Play La Bamba, baby'

I could see them starting a different goalie in game 7. With the way our luck is vs back up goalies I'm not sure whether or not that's a good thing...

 

[StoveTopStauffer]

Not that I have seen. Oilers fan dislikes ALL other teams and their fans.
Can't help it if others jump on our bandwagon.

Maybe I'm old.

It's more like us first.

Otherwise Ottawa and Montreal are more tolerable than the rest of Canada. Jets fans have gotten way too cocky.

We scored 3 on their backup. Put him in.

Imagine they start Stolarz and we go up 2-3 early? They’d be done mentally.

I hope the Oilers fans drown out the Panthers fans. It’ll be louder than ever in that building

It really was devastating as a fan. But what made it worse was the team was basically dismantled immediately after.

That summer my mood turned sour for many moons.

To this day the grumpyness really never fully subsided.

Lots of scalpers, some of them could not care less about the game within theirs games.

The only way Bobrovsky is not starting is if there was some dire family emergency or a severe injury where he couldn’t skate. I think it’s just media hype, unless he got injured on the Hyman breakaway goal.

No clue on the brand, but that’s the Colonius Tower in Cologne (where he’s from), so probably something local.

I agree unless Bob is injured. No way they sit their star goaltender in game 7

It looks like a souvenir hat from the Space Needle or Calgary Tower . So I looked to see what towers are in Germany… my guess is it’s this, right from home in Cologne. It’s the Colonius Tower.

Credit to @Duder54 for calling it before me.

Restaurant in Edmonton well not that hat but the beige one he wears often is.

 

[Lay Z Boy GM]

In a little over 24 hours we will witness the boys hoist Stanley!!!

Oilers fans will drown out the swamp creatures in their own building

Tkachuk will cry

Bennett will cry

Bobrovsky will cry

Maurice will cry

Barkov will wonder wtf he’s playing with these clowns

 

[HockeyGuy1964]

We were supposed to have Pronger for like 5 more years though. That was a real dagger to the heart after such an amazing run

That's what us fans thought but the players, coaches & management knew it was a 1 year thing.

I never replaced the cat avatar

I will also never replace my cat avatar.

I never heard that before. There were lots of rentals but Pronger signed long term with us. Did the org know before that he wouldn’t stay?

I was a big Pronger fan before we even got him, loved watching him with Al Macinnis. Was so pumped that we signed him.

I may or may not have worked in a law enforcement capacity for over 20 years before resigning two years ago to get out of that nonsense it has become. So for me it’s still just connecting the dots . It was either something from his homeland or he was low-key trolling the city of Calgary, which I could see Leon doing too .

Thank you for the compliment though-lol.

Prime Hasek himself wouldn't beat this Oilers team alone. The Panthers, to a man, are going to need to play the game of their lives to stop this Oilers team of destiny.

Pronger asked for a trade in January.
He was promised by Lowe they would oblige after the season.

This is the game that Connors takes his legacy to new heights. I just don't see a man of his talents being so close and litterally not taking over....

The only thing that scares me is the refs pur the whistles away and it's no holds bar hockey. Think that type of game will benefit Florida dearly
