I sure hope he's blocked about 16,000 shots for them then.
Of course just as I am reading this, Russell scores to put the Oilers up on the Panthers.

The EJ is essentially the oilers fox news. They've done a story on how they weren't sold on Shattenkirk anyway....

In Edmonton's tradition of no goodness, last night they raised a permanent banner to the rafters at rogers place commemorating Garth Brooks 9 shows there, complete with a video tribute from Wayne Gretzky......not kidding

Well they finally passed Saskatoon on hosting Garth Brooks concerts. Beating Saskatoon (after Saskatoon stole their Lacrosse team) is an achievement worth celebrating

I swear everytime I watch an Oilers game there is a new Gretzky interview during the intermission.

*If you're reading this Gretzky please blink twice if you're being kidnapped and held in Rogers place's basement forced to do an interview every game*

It is insufferable hearing about McDavid and the Oilers. Do they NEED to keep bringing up and forcing their glory years down our throats on top of that too?

Unfortunately, we will keep hearing about what McDavid liked to eat before every game until we are into our 90s.

I really wish some bad luck on the Oilers, and their season stalls just as everyone is penciling in a Stanley Cup finals with McDavid facing off against Crosby:



Just leapfrog that damn team Flames and everyone else. It is the Oilers!

Whoa take a step back. There's this thing called a salary cap, there's this other thing called defense. Flames have won 1 less game this year albeit losing all our games with the Oil we have played better vs the rest of the league so far. Also start getting acquainted with this thing called a mute button, it comes in handy when watching Canadian sports media, especially the terribleness that is sportsnet who gives a platform to babbling idiots like Doug Maclean, John Shannon, that plug they call kyper, Eric "$7.5 million" Francis, and his cross city idiot in arms Mark Spector. I also suggest using a DVR so you never have to watch that disgusting turd of a team play at all.

It's funny because Edm media proves that "FAKE NEWS!" is actually a thing.

Well at least the Rod Phillips banner is no longer the stupidest banner hanging in that arena.

It is even better that they lost on a controversial offside call. Not that the wrong call was made—rather it is glorious that the Oilers and their fans are so butt-hurt about it.
