Mavi Diary - Day 10

Dear Diary. One thing about me that people don’t know is just how funny I am. It’s widely recognized amongst teammates and media. I’m going to put the links here so that when I have a sad day, like when I get a + for being on the ice but I don’t get a point, I can look back.

While I’m on it diary, I’m against the minus in plus and minus. And I think that power play goals should count for pluses. Why should I be punished because oilers got a power play when an opponent fell down within 15 feet of me?

This one is a personal favourite: people are literally laughing in the video. I was close to tears from the laughter inside myself. I was smiling inside, but my look is an imperceptible witty meh.

https://www.youtube.com/shorts/hA-Ar81OKOk

Here’s one where I was being serious but people think it’s funny so just wanted to show what a prankster I am:

https://www.tiktok.com/@bardown/vide...94120863091973

I was actually being serious about only passing because Leon needed more goals to hit his bonus. We agreed to support each other.

Here’s another great one of me kidding around. We don’t play defence. If we did, how would we find the time to score goals? Don’t want to play defence either. I told uncle Ken and GM Stan that I didn’t ever want to be put in a position where we sign or draft or trade for defenders and I have to answer stupid shutout questions. Has anyone ever won when everyone gets shutouts? It’s just a bunch of ties with no one getting their scoring and assist bonuses.

You can see the glitter of anger encroaching on middle emotion meh here…I almost busted out my disgust emotion.

https://www.facebook.com/reel/693450603391775

I’m a laugh a minute guy which is why people love me.

Until tomorrow.

I dont know why, but the fact that this question comes from 'dirk diggler' is something I find particularly funny.

Yep. They may wait a bit for the smoke to clear but I don't believe that he's not an option they are considering.

I’m not an insider at all, but know a player that plays in the AHL and runs in reasonably close circles and it has been discussed from what I understand. Some real Orange Julius stuff there…….

Rodrigue? Their 25 year old prospect with 2 NHL games played? He’s on the shortlist to become their COACH?! Big brain moves over there.

I assume it's his father, Sylvain, who was the Oilers' goalie coach when Olivier was drafted.

After a decade with the Oilers/Condors, last season, he became the goalie coach with Charlotte, the AHL affiliate of the Panthers.


It looks like the Oilers didn't give Olivier a QO and he's currently a UFA, so maybe he is looking at moving into coaching.

Is Coffey bailing because he sees the Oilers window has closed?

He apparently never wanted to be behind the bench to begin with, but ownership insisted.

He probably just wants to go back to managing and making racial slurs with his OJHL team.

Should have put mactavish to supervise him like they did to Nelson.

Awww who am I kidding. Defensive coach is not needed as we’ve been told they are 99th percentile. And they only care about offense only.
