I'm not kidding.

Several of their fans on the HF boards are salivating at this idea considering it a fantastic opportunity to get them a goalie...

The Oilers can get Carter Hart all they want, it won't matter. That franchise is a goalie graveyard.

You don't F around with that kind of money.
It's wishful thinking by Oilers fans and those with Oiler sympathy. There is absolutely zero chance this guy, who will have the opportunity to sign the richest deal in NHL history, is going to leave money on the table to essentially do the Oilers a favour. He's put in his time, he's gonna get fully paid. If the Oilers do end up keeping him its gonna be a long term deal. Its laughable to think it won't be.

Ya I'm hearing everywhere from their fans that they want Hart. He definitely checks all the boxes for the Oilers...

Somebody call the wahmbulance.

Panthers Stars Need to Stop Disrespecting Connor McDavid

Quote:
It started when Sam Reinhart (who will be playing with McDavid in the Olympics, last I heard) asked a fan on camera to shut the hell up when he asked Sasha Barkov what he thought of the Oilers player.
That’s a weird one.

Clearly, even though Barkov said they were just drinking water, Reinhart was obviously afraid of what his captain was going to say. Otherwise, he’d have just let him talk, right?

And what about Matthew Tkachuk?

Sober, he sees McDavid winning the Cup one day. But when the party’s in full swing, he grabs a microphone to say “who the hell is Connor McDavid?” to a cheering crowd.

People are just sick of talking about him

"You don’t have to laugh at the Oilers to have fun."




The fact that we're in E-NG XII is proof that guy doesn't know what he's talking about. Of all the things in the world that have given me joy, laughing at the Oilers is definitely in the top 10.

Carter Hart will turns into Stinker. Or Soup Boy or Costingem.


Nobody can help the Greased Pigs, not McJesus or Jesus himself, or Jesus's dad, by Jesus's dad I don't mean Joseph. And most certainly, not Carter Hart.

If at first you don’t succeed, just keep trying with all the same people. Or something like that

Get these guys locked down. Then see how much you have left, and maybe bring back an Evan Bouchard or Connor McDavid if you have the cap space going forward.

Pretty much. It's their last kick at the can.

I love it!

F### all the pedestalizing of McDavid. Players have had enough. Fans outside of bumonton have had enough.

Clearly he's not all that to go 0/2 in the finals and not be a factor in the do or die games both times.

He has no personality or charisma.

Just not interesting at all. There are better stories everywhere and they still only want to talk about mcdavid. I think Barkov said it best.

Apparently the abuse Stuart Skinner was receiving was really bad. His mom sounded really, really upset by it. My wife who's normally neutral about sports said to me "Edmonton is ####ed"

Which is crazy language for her, being very mild manored.

Again I ask… WITH. WHAT. MONEY.

I can’t imagine Brown and Perry will want league minimum deals, so what frigging cap space do they have to re-sign these guys.

They must be thinking they can bridge Bouchard or offload Nurse to someone or something, otherwise this makes no sense.

Why would any team would want to re-sign Perry at this point when the guy is clearly cursed in regards to the Cup finals. If I were the Oilers I'd cut him loose immediately. But it's the Oilers, so of course they're gonna try and run it back with all the same losers again.


Edmonton is no good.
