GDT: Game #75: Oilers @ Sharks - 8:30 PM - SNW

[brentashton]

Max Webster I associate with my initiation to cutting school parties mid 70's. Cheap stereos, cheap beer and not a care in the world. Yeah the louder the better. "Oh shit we blew up another speaker"

Craig car stereo speakers werent very robust back then (had a couple of them).

 

[Drivesaitl]

The reason I’m barely able to function today is one of ours decided to spend the evening scratching our bedroom door. He’d leave periodically, only to return basically at the exact second I was about to finally fall asleep.

lol. You have the same system we do. Its been door closed to the cats for a decade now because its IMPOSSIBLE to sleep with them roaming around the bed sticking their paws your face to check for life...Now they just take turns scratching at the door and meowing.

Xanadu by Rush would clock em almost everytime. Speakers and back window of the Gremlin, lol blow out at 2mins into track. Yeah AMC Gremlin. joke in itself. Replace back window with plywood, get bigger speakers...

heres for the kids that didn't get to grow up on this kind of music: Crank it!

This album was RELIGION in Canada in 77. Could here it blasting everywhere.

12 more years of SN shit.

Kim Mitchell and Max Webster were some cool cats. Love that band. Outside Canada hardly anybody knew they existed.

Think I’ll Go For A Soda, or maybe a Lager and Ale before turning on my Patio Lanterns.

12 more years of SN shit.

April Fools week. Or month if in Canada. Some people will get that joke.

 

[5 Mins 4 Ftg]

Pretty excited to hear Skinner hasnt even skated yet, we are a better team without him automatically.

Sorry to burst your bubble but he skated today.

 

[McHelpus]

Thought the game was at 8pm

 

[5 Mins 4 Ftg]

This is what happens to 70s rockers who don’t grow up…

Iggy Pop circa 2024/25

I’m shocked he’s still alive.

 

[PitkanensGitch]

Think they'd give Rodrigue this one...unless they're really prioritizing home ice (which also makes sense).

I can’t stop laughing. AMC Gremlin/Pacer…and @Drivesaitl as Garth…


Party on Drive!!

(I actually saw the very car 3 years ago, it was auctioned off at Barrett Jackson. Still had the licorice dispenser in the roof headliner.)

It cost 200bucks and beat the bus. whaddya gonna do!

hahah

3 of us on the block had these. Was like a running gag even back then. Ladas weren't available so it was like lets try to find the cheapest silliest wheels possible. Mullets optional. We were ahead of our time.

 

[brentashton]

I’m shocked he’s still alive.

Yup. The drugs should have killed him years ago. You know what they say about cockroaches though…

 

[RegDunlop]

Seen him play a number of times and the guy shows up and plays anywhere. One time was in Vegreville. We were just there looking around, think it was a Canada Day celebration out there.

Yup
I have a couple 'stories' I'll get to sometime. Amazing guy

 

[RegDunlop]

I thought patio lanterns was a great song but he was kinda over saturated on Muchmusic so I thought he was kinda lame solo.

Dave Mustaine was interviewed on much, Craig the VJ asked him what he thought about Canadian talent..
DH replied “I didn’t think they had any…”
Craig “What about Kim Mitchell?!?”
DH “Haven’t heard of her…”
Craig “what?? ‘I’m a wild party!’ Craig sang while playing air guitar
DH “I’m sure you are”
It was a joke as Megadeth did audition a talented Canadian shredder named Jeff Waters, who had his own band going at the time and his manager suggested he decline…

Anyways off topic,
Anyone have a tweet of oilers projected lineup? I’ll post it in the OP

DM such a dick last time they were here

 

[K1984]

Nothing like tuning into a Cali game at 8:30 and seeing they’re still in warm up.

 

[brentashton]

Pickard and Drai walking in together.

That’s a bromance for sure.

Love it.

Is the game working for everyone?

What a reminiscent thought!
The ole Gremlin cruising with Craig speakers out the plywood in back being fed by the awesome Realistic deck!

And pouring 5 star into the slurpee with one hand while lighting a cigarette and shifting with the other!

Yeehaw. (.....kind of miss those days!)

 

[Sanchez]

Just win

We were more refined…we bought Silk Tassel.

Nothing like hanging the tassels from the rear view to attract attention from the Federales when they pulled you over…

 

[Sanchez]

3rd career start for Sharks goalie. I can see where this is going.

 

[BlackDogg]

Great. The game is filmed from the moon.

 

[dss97]

This arena is so empty

 

[Sanchez]

Wow lots of empty seats there
