I think this dude and his vehicle looks ridiculous, about as ridiculous as a company carrying if someone does this to one of their vehicles.

Just google "Ferrari cease and desist". They do it to protect their trademark rights as the owner in this case is using a Ferrari to promote the Oilers. As well they would consider that art tarnishing their brand. Purchasing and owning a new Ferrari is serious business.

I think it looks great.

Flames fans are just inversely jealous that they aren’t as ignorantly tone deaf to decorate a blue Flames car.

There are precedents for artists suing for injunctions against purchasers of their art and then redecorating them in some ugly fashion. I remember a sculptor suing a mall for putting Christmas ribbons and bows all over his statues (I don't remember how it turned out). The argument is that an artist retains some residual interest in the integrity of their work even after it's sold. If any car is similar to art, it's a Ferrari.

Reduces the resale value to negative.

This McDavid thing is actually creepier than The Painting. Not as creepy as The Video though.

EDIT: Ha. I found the Lambo. I wasn't imagining things.

I think they try to control alot of things like reselling the cars to.


Maybe it's just my old eyes, but those pictures look fake to me, or a real bad rap.

Mcdingus and Leon playing again against the Canucks today in absolute zero meaning game. Each of them has a point on the oilers goal. Way to risk injury to pad those stats boys.

McDavid+Draisaitl have been in on 73% of the Oilers goals scored this season. Yup. Two man team. Everyone else just scrambling to try and hold the line.

Lol. Owning a Ferrari is a privelege. It's like buying a membership into an exclusive club. You pull #### like that, they'll revoke your right to own a Ferrari. They have plenty of people in the world lining up to buy their cars in the world. They make the rules.

That team is an embarrassment. They're in for a rude awakening once they're forced to play against elite competition. McLotteryball might be able to get them past a crappy Jets squad, but they're done after that. Leafs, Panthers, Canes, Bolts, Preds... any of these teams would rip them to shreds in 5 games or less.

This...is super telling. Has there ever been such a lopsided stat for another team? That seems like something that teams would try to avoid doing.

...Avs, Knights, Pens, Wild, Bruins, Caps, Islanders and Blues would rip them to shreds too.

Haha another Koskinen implosion today against the same goalie and team we just beat 4-1. Late defensive breakdowns are exactly what I'd love to see carry into next week.

Looks like all hopes rest on old man Smith. Seeing how this incredible team fares with mediocre goaltending makes me wonder how much Smith's anomaly of a performance has covered up for them defensively.

Also +1 on the dozen or so actually great teams south of the border more than likely rolling over these turds.

I truly think the Flames could do similar to what the Oil have with Darryl from day one, seeing how he has the team going now. And I think the Flames are a middle of the road team that underperformed with Ward. Which is basically me implying that that's exactly what I think the Oilers are. It's just not a tough division. Winnipeg, Edmonton, Montreal are all bubble teams in the context of a regular, 32 team season.

I'm not cheering for injuries, because that's garbage, but the Oilers are going to have to be extremely lucky to get through more than a round or two without having one of those two guys injured. Even if it's something they can play through, when so few guys are carrying so much of the load, any dip in production is going to be a huge deal.
