ESPN is predicting the Oilers to win the Cup and the Flames to finish 6th in the division.

Dube has been absolutely dominated at even strength this preseason. The Flames bleed a ton of chances when he's on the ice, and it's been going on for a couple years now. I'm really concerned about him — think it might be the perfect time to sell high.

They practice that, as soon as they feel someone touch them, they automatically go down.

I could see a case being made for the Canucks. Goaltending, and injuries in particular were a problem for them last year.

If Demko is playing well, they could be much improved. Their D looks better this year, and they have plenty of offense even without Horvat. They also found a way to lose a bunch of games they lead at the start of the year. If they get better at locking games down they could be dangerous.

Jack: um....

Now you're caught up.
Jack M. sounds like Dad of the year.

"Did you give him some guidance, or.."
"Nah I just let him do whatever he wants. I think he picked business? It could've been something else.."

Oof.. RIP Jack's kid. I think pops actually cares about the ####ing No Goods more than his own kid.

Could you imagine if that was your dad.

LOL, yup, that was my dad. I barely know him now.

Guess it’s OK to yank Poirier’s jersey like that.

ESPN also said the 49ers would regret trading for Macaffrey last year and gave them a trade grade of C-. If ESPN thinks we will suck that is a very good sign!

Ok, I have to give respect to the 7 year old with the Petr Klima jersey. That's a student of the game. No way he knows about him without doing research.

These last few minutes have been bliss. Hopefully Jack and Bob are stuck in the line for the urinals.

Sorry man. I feel bad for people who suffered parents that didn't accept the role that comes with the title of "dad" or "mom".

Mine was harsh & punishing kind, but I guess at least he cared in his own dysfunctional way.

Absent parents are a different kind of ####ed up though.
