Ugh...it's an Oiler love-fest on CBC Newsworld right now, hyping up the Gretzky announcement, McJesus, their new rink, etc..

Puke.

So, a 20oz can of Canadian is a buck cheaper than "20oz" of Canadian draft? Good scam.

Apparently fans are being short-changed on their beer pours.

Yeah, I guess I was being presumptuous in thinking they're in cans. It's probably a leaky cardboard box.

Beaten by Troutman both in time and in spelling.

I'm picturing a half empty 40 of OE.

Did he really snub them? He will essentially be the RW1 in Calgary. That just seems like a better move on his part. Regardless of being a PTO in Edm or the BOA or anything. His best shot is EDM was if Cagguila was healthy and being RW3 after JP gets sent down.

Can't really blame the guy.

Their trick is they use suagr based cups that slowly melt and they poke a hole in the bottom.

Well the Fans are getting used to being short-changed on their hockey club for years now, so beer should be a fairly painless transition.

Is that much different than the dome?

Maybe it's just me but I don't find that unreasonable. You can't get a meal at McDonalds for $10 so not a surprise it's that much at a sporting event.

Yes he did. They offered him more money apparently.

Also, he is better than Slepishev (don't care about the spelling). And Puljujarvi isn't ready. And Draisaitl should be playing C.

The Oilers lineup looks weak down the right side now and yes, they could definitely have used him. One injury to Eberle and he could have been playing with McDavid.
