This post is a joke, right?

How easy do you believe it is to move that Nurse contract?

Good grief dude
It should be easy for any other league but the NHL is stuck in a time where the salary cap is the same as the Verlander and Scherzer contracts.

I think Oilers fans are pushing back because all the shit talk other posters have been giving them over the offersheet situations,
Literally why I came here. This board has been nothing but 31 other teams fanbases having a massive celebration every time Bro gets a point.lol And at least half aren't happy for Bro, they are happy the Oilers look stupid.lol

Anyways, my reason to come was to point out that Broberg has a long history injury. He never seems to be able to get a full season in.
I have maintained from the start, based on what he had done up to the offer sheet, I didn't want him for 4.5 million.

He got hurt at his last World Juniors and is averaging around 55 games in a season since then (at AHL or NHL level combined).

I don't wish him injury. I'm also on record as very happy for him and was cheering for him so the injury sucks. But when I saw he was injured, I didn't even flinch. I hope it's short and full recovery. But that is 4 years in row where he can't get a full season in and has a setback.

I also noted someone say McDavid is injured too. Very true! McD is 28 years old and Bro is 23 and has had more injure is in his career than McDavid has in his career. Bro has played 93 NHL games in his career averaging around 13 mintues a night. McD has played 665 games and averaged over 21 minutes a night.

Speedy recovery Bro.

I will miss visiting this thread after every Bro game.lol

We have certain posters whose whole personality is oiler bashing, like a certain poster named after a Blackhawk and ranger bread like player.

I stick to the mains and the Oilers have a lot of 'fans' that actually know more about our team than OIler fans.lol If I'm being honest, I enjoy the perspective of some of the biggest Oiler hatrs on the mains... different perspective and sometimes they nail it. Usually it's just silly though.lol

Good news is, the injury wasn’t a chronic type of injury or a recurring one.

Bad news is, the injury did not look good and has the potential to need surgery.

I guess we’ll know more in the coming days.

I'm really curious... I looked at the replay several times and his knee definitely didn't go in the right direction BUT it didn't look like an outright snap either (eg. your own Adam Jiricek had one at the World Jr's and that looked nasty and was obvious right away. He just returned last night (good for Blue's fans and Czech people.lol)

Hope he's back soon! It's been a tremendous story to follow to be honest.

Well, you know what they say, the best way to get back at a blackhawks fan is by.. *checks notes* laughing at a Blues player’s injury….
right becuase its the blackhawks fan( i dont even know if he is a blackhawks fan his name is named after panera bread) thats the problem and not the 15 pages of post history that is just trolling Oilers in the mains GDTs

sort of I assumed the blackhawks fan because of the player the poster is named after, for all i know he could be trolling them too because that player hasnt played for the blackhawks in almost 10 years. So you did take my words out of context, but thats okay. Thats what happens here.

I think Oilers fans are pushing back because all the shit talk other posters have been giving them over the offersheet situations, Bowman and McDavid injuries and the constant ribs and barbs they get in the mains GDTs. I mean you know, you were in our boards GDT trolling us about McDavids injury and now your acting all shocked pikachu face. Did you forget that usernames on this site are visible?

Turnabout is fair play as far as im concerned.

I generally tend to stay away from most of the oiler bashing, but it is palpable and undeniable.
I always say, "if you think something is wrong when someone else does it, you should immediately do that same thing to them if given the chance." I've thought about shortening it to something like "two wrongs make a right" but I dunno.

Yah, but this is a message board.

If you’re gonna give it, you’re gonna get it.

Look up Artemi Panarin post history, its 15 pages of oiler bashing.

At some point the barbs come back.

No I’d like to hear your logic… run me through your little scenario…
Didn’t see you in the oiler board last night, or the game before that… i wonder why
