Maybe the quizzical look was about bukkake circles being low on your list; oiler fans and all.
I was also prepared for the “too bad for the flames…go oilers go right?” At a get together. I led with “have I ever needed validation by asking you to support my team?” Followed by “I can’t tell which Canadian team I hate the least, but I know the most hated.” I got a grumble of “you haven’t changed” which was meant as a criticism but I said “thanks.”
I followed up with a few of my favourite baits such as “if, the Oilers lose, they have to fire knobby…right? And that’s McDavid’s coach, so does it make it double unlikely that McDavid re-signs?” And “should the Oilers force McDavid to take less money so they don’t get hollowayed again?”
By consensus, these oilers fans believe that goaltending and defence will define their playoffs but “the Oilers couldn’t play with all of their injuries” hence 3rd place in division.
I wish I had thought of bukkake circle.
Kings in 5.
