Someone please correct me if I’m wrong, but I don’t think that he is using his work or the day calendar properly…

It can be used in the manner he is using but, it feels and sounds clunky so there are better words.

I think "imperative" was the word he was looking for

Really shows

a) how bad their bottom 6 is that Virtanen can coast through a camp and be invisible and we hear from the coach that he's been great.

B) Shows that Jay is probably going to be shown as Edmonton's version of Greg Gilbert. Hot start to his coaching career. Greg rode a hot start by Turk and then couldn't fix it once his one trick pony faded.

He'll go to the well once too often when he demands that Conna and Pissy back check for all 82 games, and the Conna will personally make the Skype call.

Hey, the Oilers are playing the Canucks tonight!

Oilers #1 center: Connor McDavid
Canucks #1 center: Sheldon Dries
Oilers #2 center: Leon Draisaitl
Canucks #2 center: Nils Aman
Oilers #1 d-man: Darnell Nurse
Canucks #1 d-man: Christian Wolanin
Oilers #2 d-man: Evan Bouchard
Canucks #2 d-man: Kyle Burroughs

Good lord, the Oilers must be destroying them!

... Nope, it's tied.

Well the game must have just started then.

... Nope, it's more than halfway over.

Well, the Oilers must be outshooting them by a ton.

... Nope, the Canucks have more shots.

Well, Thatcher Demko must be stealing the game anyway.

... Nope, the Canucks have started Colin Delia.

Well... E=NG.

Damn. Virtanen has only had 6 minutes of ice so far in the game. 0 shots, 1 hit, 1 penalty. Hoping he makes the Oilers because he'll make them worse but I don't see it happening.

I'm watching a little bit of that game and actually wasn't aware Virtanen was even playing.

Holloway, on the other hand, looks great. Unfortunately.

I watched the game and I was thinking there's the Jack Campbell that the Leafs couldn't be bothered to resign.

Bragg Creek to be precise. My kid went to school with him. Maybe he can borrow some money one day.

4 point game and hat trick for Holloway... So, I guess they'll start calling him Hattoway now. Welcome to the world of unrealistic expectations, Dylan. Ty Rattie says hi.

We're now going to be hearing how Holloway is a superstar because he got some easy goals against the Canucks D team.
