Meh, what's wrong with the idea?
Crapping on it for not being creative enough, and then not suggesting something more creative seems odd.
I guess you'd prefer to sit there in silence?

Even those two chants aren't done properly or by the majority

I'd like to see an Oiler jersey toss on Saddledome ice myself...would send the hard cores around the bend to see it happen on HNIC in Calgary.

Fans should chant "7 more years!" just to make him feel ####ty and then maybe he'll request a trade.

Do it Oiler fans were very obnoxious two seasons ago at the Dome. Walking around in large groups chanting Flames suck. Give it back to them they deserve it.

Free McDavid chant on Saturday
Poop on their lawns. Pillage their stocks. Crush any survivors.
Let ring the bray horns of war, that they shall know they have been soundly and brutally defeated, and that they shall know no refuge. Let our songs of victory strike every ear in Greaserville.
The Oilers would give us no less.

Harvey doesn't even bang the drum properly on Go Flames Go chants. He needs to slow up the tempo to be more slow and steady and let the crowd build it up.
currently:
BANG BANG BANG! (abrupt pause) BANG BANG BANG!
Should be:
BANG.... BANG.... BANG........... BANG... BANG.... BANG.......

I can hear it on TV and it makes me squirm. Rhythm is one of two job qualifications.

He has the misfortune of being drafted by the oilers, and the chant would make sense during his ELC. But showing sympathy to a dangerous talent because he's chosen to sign with our rival? Sorry, that's just beyond tacky.

This is true, but if you feel all the other chants are crap, why add another crap chant to the list? For the record, I'm not against it because it's not creative enough, just didn't think the creativity of the chant was a solid argument for it.
Oilers are done, the Flames and there fans have bigger fish to fry, pay them no notice and keep our chants and energy as fans focused on pumping our team up as they head into the playoffs.

I'm sure that the Edmonton management is taking advice from the Calgary fans in the stands on how to run the team.
