Corry Perry SNIPE SHOW!? He probably hasn't sniped one like that since his 50 goal campaign lol. Dude has definitely found a home in Edmonton. 6 goals from the 4th line, that's stellar value.
Plays 11 min a night and likely gets 10-12 goals by time the season is over, I questioned the signing but the old man still has game.

You're telling me this cross check to the numbers from behind on Ekholm, that could have potentially broken his neck, wasn't worth a 2 min minor?

But this one by Kane on Kadri from the side, causing Kadri to go into the boards sideways and not face/neck first, is worth a 5 minute major and a potential suspension?



f***in JOKE LEAGUE.

As an Oilers fan it is shocking how much I like watching the d-corps play. Steady, move the puck fast, makin plays, constantly filling in as the 3rd man on a rush, switching on the offensive blue line, skating…

Kudos to Coffey’s philosophy to get his guys to push it, definitely done more than years of scaredy cat coaching.
Helluva contrast from days gone by! It’s been a slow and painful process but I think we’ve turned the corner. A tweak or two and wham!

Late to the party but DAMN that was a f***ing satisfying win against those little shits. I can't believe that Eichel CROSSCHECK TO EKHOLMS NUMBER was called a penalty and then just taken off the board. What a JOKE!

Nurse has become such an amazing revelation this season like wow. He's better now than he was in the COVID year. I'm glad a lot of fans are eating crow.

I thought Skinner was excellent in tonights game except for the third goal

They still have 10s more fans than Florida though.
Sickens me really that Bettman NHL has Carolina, Florida, Tampa, Vegas, Dallas names on cup. Lord Stanleys Trophy that was given to Canada that Canadian teams haven't won since 93. If the NHL lasts another 50yrs people will wonder about these names on the cup and Mexico City and all these have hockey teams. (I'm predicting the future)

Okay. Just give Nurse the Norris now. What a game so far. Huge net front poke check to eliminate a chance. Beauty assist to Drai. He's at the height of his powers right now.
Kind of unfair to Ekholm who is a boss almost always. I like Nurse, I usually have, but he's had this elevation in his game thats noticeable after being not so good for awhile. Ekholm has been nothing but a boss here since arriving. Could stand to be corrected on this but I think Ekholm has the hardest minutes.

If the eastern media didn't go to sleep in their Laffs pj's before the Oil played their games and weren't lazy AF that they relied on bullshit narratives....Drai would be legit considered for the Hart and Selke and Nurse would be at least top-10 in Norris consideration.

But alas they both are products of McDavid and not very good. Narratives that lazy f***s like Friedman continue to espouse.
