But first .
Go team Canada

 

[KeithIsActuallyBad]

Might as well lock in the Kings/Oilers series yet again…

Since we cannot bounce, we instead will be listening to Forest Night Fever from ths smash hit video game Vampire Survivors, until the next game.

I pulled my own groin just looking at that picture.


Wait, that sounds bad. That’s not what I meant.

Some guy named Stauber in goal for Utah. Shutout incoming.

Son of Robb Stauber?

Still pissed at the Ducks game as well. It’s one thing to lose to a bottom feeder due to random event (hero goaltending, shit officiating, etc), but it’s another when you lose for no reason other than trash effort.

Losses like that are effectively a choice. If we simply chose to show up with a professional, focused approach we win that game no matter what. We chose not to though, which makes it that much more frustrating.

Effort was shit. I bet we win that game without 2 muffin goals against though.

I think they've won once ever on NYE. I pay special attention to this as it's also my birthday (meh). I don't exactly have a good feeling about it, for the above and also the NYE curse they seem to have.

Happy bday !

Yup. Was also hoping for a better game from Latvia today. They have a couple kids that are so skilled.

Same. I missed it, I was working but I was hoping it would be a decent game. Finland is pretty tough unfortunately

I'm still annoyed by that loss to the Ducks. The worst kinds of losses are the ones where we blow leads to bad teams. Hopefully we can win one more game before the year concludes.

Happy New Birthday @Oilhawks

You're the youngest of your birth year. That's kinda neat.

Thanks! Technically the opposite, I'm the oldest of my birth year (Dec 31)

Happy Birthday! Hope the Oilers new years resolutions are to be better hockey players

Happy birthday my man

Happy birthday @Oilhawks !!

I hope the team gets you a goalie to tandem with Stuuuuu for your bday!!

Thanks!
