I say the latter.

Let me preface this, I like you as a poster. You try to bring new elements to this forum and I feel you're the sliver of the FOI.

However you realise you just gave a thumbs down to a post from 2011 right? Come on.

Hahahahahaaaaa! Oops, will rescind my thumbs-down, although it's still a dumb post. Thanks for the compliments, though

EDIT: wait, the 'sliver of the FOI'? Wut? What does that even mean?

Sliver is a poster on here who's polarizing. He's brought up a bunch of new threads with controversy. All in all he's an interesting guy that seems to be liked even if he's eccentric. I happen to really enjoy his threads. Take a look at his post history to get an idea.

I'll take that as a positive. Thanks!

It is, stop posting replies without doing a bit of research first though (aka thread title searches, looking at post dates etc.).

Best part is, the Oilers are getting worse. With Florida likely to make the playoffs, will be the longest streak out of the playoffs in the league, to go along with all the other dubious records of futility that the organization can fill the trophy cases with.

There was no HD broadcasts of hockey in Canada, nor was there twitter, the last time the Oilers were in the playoffs in 2006.

Big thanks to Kevin Lowe and all his minions for driving that organization into the ground, that not even 3 first overall picks, and 4 picks in the top 3 since the OP, can pull the team out of.

Let's let Steam take it away, again:

Slight clarification:

Florida made the playoffs in 2012. Edmonton has had the longest active streak for a few seasons now. They have now tied Florida's alltime record 10 straight seasons ('01-'11) this year.
