The description of Campbell's contract in each proposal....

Quote:
the flaming garbage can that is Jack Campbell’s contract

the washed up on the beach whale carcass that is Jack Campell’s contract

the 500 yards of ****-smelling foulness Andy Dufresne crawled through that is Jack Campbell’s contract

the smell of a microwave that has only ever been used to heat up fish that is Jack Campbell’s contract

On the other hand, keeping them hasn't helped them much either.

Oilers still closer to the Sharks than a playoff spot

I see the Oilers are Cup favourites again after beating the craptastic Ducks. Parade back on!

So glad I didn’t watch. The clowns at SN must have been unbearable tonight.

And once again Spittin' Chicklets is asking if the Oilers are back. Every time they do it the Oilers end up going back on a losing streak.

Of course the Oilers are back.

Five points back of a wild card spot, and Arizona holds the tiebreaker.

8 - 2 over the Ducks. Cup is definitely in the building.

@ 6-2 with just over half a period to go, they made sure to have the McPowerplay out there to pad some stats. But when other teams do it though...

Came to post exactly this. McHypocrit. Trash leader. Trash team. Trash organization. Trash fan base.

Selling counterfeit Yeti’s above MSRP at Roger’s Place is definitely no good:

Would not be at all surprised if this was known about. They probably turned a blind eye to it with the thinking that maybe the sweatpants wearing mouth breathers wouldn't notice.

I don't know if there is a franchise that clearly takes advantage of their fans like the Oilers do. On the spectrum, you have the Oilers and on the complete opposite side you have Arthur Blank and the Falcons. They are truly no good.

5-5 in their last ten and they've moved up to 29th place. Cup lock!

Those are returns that should be expected. No team is going to gut their entire core for McDavid, not a team that's trying to compete. It would defeat the purpose of acquiring him.

They might gut their core for a 19 year old McDavid who didn’t want to sign in Edmonton like Lindros in Quebec, but not a 27 year old McDavid.

Really the problem with all these proposals is the salary cap, that being Oiler fans inability to understand it.
