Do you aspire to wax poetically about the Saskatchewan River Valley, the Fringe Fest and all the manifold benefits of living in Edmonton? It doesn't belong in this thread.
Do you wish to complain about other posters for being unfair to the Oilers and the city of Edmonton, and to smugly admonish them for their bias? It does not belong in this thread.
You are otherwise welcome to start another thread about poor, hard-done-by Angry Mchobo, and how he can't catch a break. Somehow, I feel that will not get the reception you hope for here.
No. Not even CanadaMatt can save the Edmonton Oilers.
No one can.
No one.

Oh I see, thanks for the refresher.
I’m just very confused then. With all the 1,000s of ligitimate reasons to point at laugh at that team up north, why on earth do we need to make up stuff, including (but not limited to):
- McDavid could have signed for another team for the same money and;
- McDavid rarely faces the media after a loss.
Neither of these two things are factually accurate. It’s those type of posts that get quoted/referenced on an Oiler board and used as examples to paint all flames fans as no-nothing-morons. (As we do when it happens the other way around)
The well of stupidity in Edmonton is seemingly never ending, and it’s such high quality stupidity. I don’t know why people feel the need to make stuff up...just use the magnificent gift that tiny infant baby Jesus has already provided.
