You can still find media footage from his juniour days; he was a completely different person back then.

He coulda pulled a Tkachuk or Mathews.

Instead he AGREED to be in Edmonton for max term. No excuse.

It’s hilarious how many of McLotteryball’s prime years have been wasted with that joke of a franchise. If he played for any other team he’d probably have multiple cups by now.

The guys a fake poster. I doubt he's even an Oiler fan as he goes out of his way to look stupid.

He's made up multiple quotes. One from Austin Matthews talking about leaving the Leafs at the end of his contract because the future is so bad.

One from Jake Virtanen talking about signing with the Oilers so he can get revenge on the rest of the league.

And this one, and when you ask him to back them up he goes silent.

I mean at first it was occasionally chuckle worthy, now its just lame.

He's a massive phony troll.

Yeah this guy has been called out quite often on fake quotes on twitter including in the comments on this one. It’s not a good look.

It’s insulting to beer!

Connor McDavid is the poster boy for dirtbags that get a pass because they're good at sports. Nope. Not good enough anymore.

McDavid is a crap person.

McDavid is just socially inept. He tried to give the safest response possible:
Don't offend Canadians? Check.
Don't offend Hockey Canada? Check.
Don't offend anyone in this situation? Check.

Unfortunately with what is going on, a safe answer is actually the riskiest one - you have to make a decisive statement condemning what happened and anyone that has tried to cover it up or enable it... But he's not that bright, hence the moronic statement he gave.

His living and playing in Mulletville gets him into this category, but is there something else that lands him in the dirtbag category?

Getting caught cheating on his girlfriend a few months ago? Although that's probably pretty common with pro athletes.

Not really a dirt bag, more just a lame wad.

When do they announce which game they'll be hoisting the Penticton Young Stars Banner?

I posted this on HF Oilers and a mod erased it pretty quickly. Such a sensitive group over there. I know it isn't the best satire and someone more creative than me could have written a good story to go along with it.

I see futures in Oilers management for Avery and Wilson when the chaps upstairs retire. Maybe Bertuzzi can take Wayne's old post as master of wine.

I think Willie Mitchell may be looking for a new job too.
