Was getting caught up on the Real Kyper and Bourne show from yesterday this morning. Tuesday's National Hour is my favourite as they bring in Steve Valiquette (who I think brings outstanding observations to sports talk and is a must listen for any hockey nerds) and he was saying back when the Oilers signed Jack Campbell it was done without any discussion with the goaltending coach (who he said would have advised against it). Like, how does that happen? How do you not get input from the coach who (should) know more about the position than anyone else in the organization? Oh that's right...

I keep saying this but their player acquisitions reek of someone upstairs seeing someone they heard of and was good (in the day). Jeff Skinner, Adam Henrique, Perry, Arviddson.

3-0 Sharks after the 1st. Sharks are legit, grease are no good.

Sharks didn’t play last night so the Oilers have to actually play against a fresh team and a starting goalie.
This is a better visual of what the Oilers are, a bad team that feasts on tired teams against backup goalies fueled by an excessive amount of PP calls.

still early but the Sharks would pass ENG if they win their games in hand.

All that effort and double and triple shifting and diving to gain 1 point on Sharks.

I mean they beat another non-playoff team last night, the list of playoff teams they've beat since Christmas remains at one - Anaheim - that's the list.
I guess you could argue that based on point percentage San Jose is a playoff team. But then Anaheim wouldn't be. Neither team is top 16 in the league. They still haven't beat a top 16 team since they beat Vegas on December 21st.

Plan the parade route once again... the Oilers beat an up-and-coming team that was supposed to stink this season still due to the lack of depth. Way to go Edmonton! LoL

They're currently at 3. An OT win against the 18th place Caps, a win against the 17th place Ducks, and a OT win against the 19th place Sharks.
If you ignore the other 15 playoff teams, they're the best team in the league.

I heard the other day that greasie piggie season ticket holders got the opportunity to win a picture with different players.
How bad will some of these pictures be? And I’m not talking about the fans!
Mavi struggles to smile at all; can you imagine how bad he will look in the 500th photo?
And pissy; the glare and nutcracker movement after a similar 500?
Haha I chuckled when I thought about people trying to speak to these two giants of personality.

Imagine “winning” a picture with anyone else on that team though. Congrats! Here’s a pic with Mattias Janmark
