Couldn't sleep. Can't focus. Trying to work but having a hard time of it.

620 can't come soon enough

Same boat. It's crazy that at 50+, I slept like a 6 year old before Christmas morning.

Mailing it in at work today, while surfing HF!

I don't even want to talk about it at the risk of jinxing it but if they win tonight, Nuge is the one that I think McDavid should hand the Cup off to first.
No player, maybe in Oiler history, has been through harder times than Nuge has been through. He's been a good soldier though all of it, never complained always played through it to the best of his ability, and now he has a chance to go from the absolute bottom to the absolute top so he's THE first one I'm thinking of if they pull it off tonight.

Yep, I hear you. The biggest bridge they have all ever had to cross is this one, unfortunately there’s a fork in the road in order to cross it first. Let’s see what happens tonight.

 

[TheNumber4]

Tonight, glory awaits.

The McD era will secure its 1st Cup.

The Oilers are just plain better than these Cats. We deserve this.

No way Drai doesn’t get the cup 2nd if we win. Are we on crazy pills here?

I'd love for Ryan or Nuge to hold it after McDavid. If it's Drai, I'm fine with that too.

 

[Canovin]

I wonder if Katz will be on ice and lifting the cup if the Oilers win. Most likely I guess. I remember Leonsis struggling to lift the cup lol

 

[DrDrai]

Ryan McLeod with the OT winner

How about McLeod with the 6th goal in a 6-2 win.

 

[KeithIsActuallyBad]

Must score first, take the crowd out of it and put the fear of God into everyone.

Ryan before Drai. Be serious.

I'm not really a superstitious guy but if anything is bad juju it's talking about the order in which the team will pass around the cup.

Well, it's just my opinion. I think the 13 year Oiler who went through the Decade of Darkness and plays a prominent role on all units (not like this is Gagner or something) deserves to get first touch but I wouldn't hate on Drai getting the first handoff.

 

[Jimmi McJenkins]

The team is loose and excited.

IF they win, I made sure to say IF

And your post is the definition of being a superstitious guy haha

 

[McAsuno]

Will be on repeat all day until the game starts

- The hockey Gods have removed the Marian Hossa curse off Corey Perry. The curse only works 3 in a row

-We have McDavid

-Game 7 Ceci is the new game 7 Justin Williams

-Skinner is undefeated in elimination games in this year playoffs

-PK Brown and Janmark is the new Gretzky and Mario

-Mamba mentality Foegele

He had to sleep with Stiffler's mom to remove the curse. He did it for the team.

 

[NedPlimpton]

Holy shit, man.

This is it.

 

[TheNumber4]

Kinda f***in amazing that this first McD cup may be one of the greatest sports stories ever told.

The wait was worth it. This is the ultimate f*** you to hockey world and the haters that have always doubted the Oilers.

Also, Bettman lucks into and fumbles into probably the most marketable hockey event of his entire career tonight if the Oil finish this off.

Damn right we deserve this!

and it was a McDrai who together took us out of the decade of darkness.

 

[Perfect_Drug]

Ths is one of the most surreal days EVER.

It's National Quebec day here, and literally everyone I know is non-stop talking about the Oilers. I can't even begin to imagine what it's like in Edmonton.

 

[Canovin]

I'm surprised no watch parties at Common Wealth, Shaw conference, Churchill, Legislature or Kinsmen as all the bars, restaurants, Rogers Place, Rivercree are at full capacity. Missed opportunities. At least there's going to be fireworks after the game

 

[tiger_80]

Ryan McLeod with the OT winner

Hope not into own net.

 

[Davo Ikinzom]

Damn, this is it. The final game. We are posting in a legendary GDT like the McDavid lottery.
