The Oilers have to come out play hard and get a win. It's pretty simple. If they can't do that, they will be staying home soon.
 
Nothing like fans from non playoffs teams or from teams that were eliminated to chime in and give the Oilers advice

Where were you when Oilers were having their lottery winning dynasty?

Apparently this is an old Mark Messier quote that Mactavish would like to use as advice to the current Oiler team whom he feels is getting outplayed by the Canucks.

Does anyone know what it means or stands for? I dont get the metaphor or the euphemism.

It's a billards term.

Before one racks the balls they polish each one takes a selfie with them on the on ones family crest. It's a sign of pride of family to show off the balls

How does putting your balls on the front of your jersey crest mean that.

Vancouver radio station was saying the Oilers dont want to do that as long a Mikhayev is on the Canucks. That will be like target shooting for him.
Is Mikhayev a ball magnet or something?
Like my little bro when I was pitching the ball for him hit me in the nuts with the ball 5 out of 6 times before I switched the game to soccer

More like share their opinion. You think the Oilers players are reading these boards like "I wonder what kind of advice that AvroArrow guy can give us to win today"
