Imagine getting dumped by your girlfriend, then she publicly tells everyone that you are a small dick loser and just used you, and then you still wash her and her new boyfriends car on the weekends and do their laundry. That's the equivalent of Flames fans cheering for Chucky. As big a cuck fanbase as you will find in any sport.
Sure hope you are right.
I f***ing love it. Well said.
And they should be desperate. They are a great team. Full respect to them. I just think they are completely gassed. 2 straight seasons going to the WC finals. Lots of mileage and in the west which is faster and harder hitting than the east (IMO).
They are an older team and some of these guys are beyond their "best before" date even before the fridge was installed.
We were all over them last night, 6 shots we gave up half way through the game, on the road that’s huge. That game was a pleasure to watch.
Played the game twice with my niece and that was enough for me. Came in 11th place out of 12th and just inside the top 10 out of 12. I'm like no more. lol

When I read these articles I often wonder who the website authors are?The Edmonton Oilers are most likely not going to the playoffs - The Oil Rig
I wrote an article a few weeks ago pointing out the importance of American Thanksgiving. I also said what needed to happen to be in the playoffs at that time. For a quick recap, roughly 76% of the teams in the playoffs at American Thanksgiving end up making the playoffs. It’s a very accurate...
For us to make the playoffs we can use last year’s playoff cutoff. 95 points was the final wild card spot. Today we have 13 points. That means we need to get 82 more points in the next 63 games. We need to go 41 and 22 (.650 points percentage) to put ourselves into wild card contention. I’d suggest 43 and 20 (.680) would guarantee it for us. Is it possible? Sure, anything is possible. Is it likely? No. Not even close. Hope dies last.
Possibly-- but I guess my point is that in today's world everybody and his dog has a website or a You Tube channel. You and I can get one too but it doesn't mean that we are experts.
This. I absolutely hated Manson as a D coach and could never understand and all the praise. Woody had the same issues as Todd, stubborn and thought he was the smartest man in the room. He laps believed it’s the players fault, not his system. This was most evident when questioned about the zone defense brought in- his response was always “it’s the execution (the players” not how he was coaching it. Knob came in a proved it wasn’t the players.
Gretz was on a whole other level. It was nuts. Using the board glass when his back was to the play to see where his teammates were, the banks off the side of the net, inventing playing behind the net, the passes coming out of the spins…the guy was ridiculous. Even as he got older, he was passing through sticks and legs in the dead puck era.
Manson's wife had died. He was going through a lot. This wasn't made public news until he was let go. Would be hard to meet the challenges of a pro position with that grieving.
