True.

I hope they introduce Manning in the starting 6 tonight and Sportsnet covers it so we can see the crowd reaction.

Wow, the press was real savage to Chia during this presser.
I haven't seen them pushing this hard since Dallas Eakins was coach.
Not saying that he doesn't deserve it, but to have the local media jabbing him so viciously is a little surprising because they are usually so homerish.

Keep in mind this is the same franchise that holds pressers to say “we’re just holding the course currently”.

You're missing half the point of those pressers:

‘We're just holding the course currently, and the free bar is right there in the back. Be sure to write your glowing reports on the team before sobering up!’

Haha Oilers on Sportsnet had a scoring chance. Glove save but the homer broadcast had the scoring animation all queued up, pulled the trigger after the save anyhow. Even changed the score.

It looks like the Oilers' cousin Owen Five visited them for the holidays.

Five game home stand around the Christmas break and lost them all. Didn't even get an OTL.

Have the Oilers been home all month? They must have lots of road games coming up.

So a buddy sends me this picture of some random singer in a Malaysian music video wearing an Oilers jersey, questioning how that happens



I suggested that Malaysia is where the Oilers donate all of the jerseys that get thrown onto the ice. The greaser fan in the group chat did not find that nearly as amusing as everyone else did

The Oilers are now as many points back of the last playoff spot as they are ahead of last place overall (or as they know it, home).
