Wanna thank my Husband for the Chucky Retro and tickets for tonight's game. Happy 40th to me and a great f'n night. Oiler fans are a sad bunch. Maybe you should wait till the game is over before you start proclaiming your dominance.

Haha this win was so satisfying, I’m still up at 4am still thinking about the game

Just reading a few pages so far oh HFoil. Oiler fans are fuming. Pretty much everyone wants Todd Mac fired for leaving Lucic on with McDavid and Drai in the 3rd

Good result. I definitely celebrated in the bar I was hanging at, despite the attention being on the saturday night date. Better yet a flood of sad Coilers came through later which filled me with joy and satisfaction. Why the hell are kids born around the turn of the millennium wearing (aside from the standard bandwagon 97) 80s players on their backs? You weren't even alive for that ####. Smh.

CP was fully in the suicide booth in the second period though. Whoa boy. Let's try to keep a little distance from the edge, shall we? Game isn't over till it's over! Can we learn from tonight and not write off the team for the rest of the season half way into a game?

Also Rittich is 6-1. Can we dub him "the guy" yet?

Lindholm slaying the stinkers for 6 years is going to be sweet.

It's gonna sort itself out if the team can pile up some points and build a cushion in the standings. It's been stressful for such a long while, and no matter if we've been in or out of the playoffs we've been right on the cusp throughout the entire season. This team should be good enough to separate themselves from the pack, and once that happens I bet the mood will become more even.

We are 11th in the League, 2 points back of division leaders Sharks with 1 game in hand, and if Smith hadn't been such a liability this year its very likely we would be 4 or 6 points further ahead this year at this point.

This is why I stay away from the GT usually, and especially if we are doing badly, holy crap the drama queens.
I’ve stopped following the game thread entirely - I can pay more attention to the game and all it did was make me frustrated.

PGT after watching the game is still awesome usually though.

What a game to be at, a ton of emotion. If we can get Rittich going as starter, we could be watching something special going on here. As a STH, this is the strongest team I have seen for years.

Actually the only goats that come to mind maybe are Gaudreau and Andersson.


It would be a bold move.

Chucky and Sam together is good like the bash brothers from the mighty ducks movie.

I know it’s early and the sample size is still too small.... but what if Big Save Dave really is the guy? Like instead of even an average goalie, an upper echelon starter? What bigger thing could happen for this team than that? Not having to spend assets on a goalie sets this team up for a long run of success.

He also said 3-4 times when Kassian jumped Tkachuk that Backlund had a tripping penalty, which was not even close since there were no players on either team on the ground off the face off.

Gotta give him credit though for the “ooooooooof” call on the Bennet hit which was right in front of him. Love it when commentators react to hits that way, especially ex-players. When they do that you know it’s a big hit.

Bennett trying to pull Lucic off Tkachuk, tipping off his helmet, skating back around and then punching McDavid one more time is my favourite thing ever

Reading through twitter. Man, Oilers media really got bent out of shape over Chucky. I love it. But in all honesty, calling themselves professionals is a joke. Bob Stauffer should be ashamed. Here's one of them.

Does he actually watch the games, or just make up his fiction?

If your job was to write positive things about the Oilers, would you watch their games?

Loved the 3M Line, but the BBT Line was a difference maker last night.

Backlund, Bennett, Tkachuk. Big Bang Theory. BBT.
