I dont know, Smith is notoriously mentally fragile which is why he blames everyone else for his own short-comings.

We should probably take bets on whether he gets caught behind the net trying to play the puck leading to one of the easiest goals of all time.

My joy from hockey took a solid kick to the nether regions with the Jake Virtanen thing.



With that ontop of everything else, this is going to be the first game I've watched in close to two weeks.


I'm ready to get hurt again.

Prediction: Both Smith and Koskinen will play.

Last night on CHED the callers kept asking how they were doing and they almost had a fit each time.

"The Oilers just had one of their biggest collapses in the history of the franchise, how do you think we're doing?"

Classy. Not sure why anyone would even call in to those losers.

Is anyone listening to "Oilers Now!" on 630 CHED? The apologetics are astounding.

Callers basically being polite but they were so touchy.

Then they trash talked a caller during their commercial break when the producer guy didn't realize his mic was still live.

960 gets a bad rap but if we're talking class, the 960 crew puts those guys to shame.

100% agree. Haven't really been watching the NBCSN broadcasts, but since it's the playoffs and they're showing every game, it's just miles better than crappy Sportsnet.

Good. That was a very cheap play.

Edmonton Oilers forward Josh Archibald was given a one-game suspension by the NHL on Monday for clipping Jets defenceman Logan Stanley in Winnipeg's 5-4 overtime win on Sunday night.

Archibald was assessed a minor penalty for tripping on the play, which occurred at 11:09 of the third period.

The Jets scored on the ensuing power play and added two more goals later in the period to force overtime. Nikolaj Ehlers scored the winner to give Winnipeg a 3-0 lead in the best-of-seven series.

I was going to say that getting Archibald out of the lineup might actually help the oilers, but then I remembered that they'll probably bring in Neal to replace him! Good times!

Holy crap, did he really say that? What a leader, lol. They still have at least one game to go, and he’s basically throwing in the towel.

Maybe it’s just me but I’m not a fan of the completely fabricated quotes, aka fake news, just to make a joke.

I mean it’s the Oilers — the jokes write themselves. No need to even embellish.

It’s not that funny for us but it’s like an acid being poured over their fan base. Which is entertaining to watch the results.

The only thing better than the Oilers getting swept is if the 3rd dman, Mike Smith coughs up the gwg.
