The Flames have to prove they're good. The Oilers have to prove they're bad.
The loser point is really keeping them up right now.

Their defense is terrible, Dubnyk has been surprisingly good this year and bailed them out over and over again.
As much as we keep hearing that the Oilers are building something special, they're not building a good team, they're building a good hockey card collection.
And for god sakes did anyone see the Tayler Hall interview, put a bolt through his throat and the guy can play a dumber version of frankenstein.
Tyler hows the game going out there
Wah injuries wah
you totally did a semi ######ed through the legs play on net why did you do that
I don't know what I'm doing out there
What are you going to do in the third period?

How much is Schultz regretting his decision to not play with the Ducks, especially with Fowler out? lol.

You think he gets this stupid hype machine playing in Anaheim?
The kid is obviously getting top notch advising. Drool factor is worth a cool million per if you've got the promo team up in edmonton.

Tyler Seguin hasn't been lighting it up on the scoreboard, so I'm not sure why he's being mentioned here.
Hall is easily the least of my worries for this team. Eberle is looking a lot like Comrie, RNH hasn't been the same since his shoulder injury last year and the team has zero depth whatsoever.

I don't think he regrets it one bit. He's getting exactly what he wanted from Edmonton. He'll have as much minutes in as many different situations as possible. He'll play a tonne and put up points. This is exactly what he wanted, not caring about being apart of a winner, but putting up points. He's setting himself up nicely for a huge next contract. More opportunity to do that in Edmonton then with he ducks.

Similar to the Flames 16 OT losses last year. That loser point really hides how bad both teams really are. If not for that, both teams would be right near the bottom.

Calgary had 7 more regulation wins than the Oilers last year, and finished 16 points ahead of them.

I didn't mention Sequin at all period. Hall came across a bit whiny and overly stupid in that interview, on top of that pulling a hot shot move like that without any setup was comically dumb.
I would take Sequin 10 time out of 10 before I took Hall, I said it on draft day that drafting Hall over the TS was possibly one of the dumbest moves that Lowe made and showed that he is as has been scientifically proven a moron when it comes to team building.

Absolutely, I've said it about the Flames a plethora of times in the past.

Possibly, but Anaheim was guaranteeing him a roster spot immediately after the Badgers season ended.

Bruce Boudreau: "I don't know what the heck happened there. We were in Chicago and we still weren't playing great and I talked to the kid straight up and said we could use you right now on the big club. We won't send you to the Crunch, as soon as you're through with Wisconsin we'll get you down there on the ice. The kid looked me right in the eye and said I can't wait coach, it's what I've always wanted. We also told him since we were playing him now it would move him one year closer to making millions of dollars. The kid seemed really excited and it seemed like a done deal when all of a sudden something dramatically changed. Someone got to the kid, it seems. I don't know exactly what happened but there's something fishy in Denmark." (sic)

I don't think I have ever heard Dan O'Toole call the highlights before.
The guy is actually pretty funny.

1. His name is Seguin, not Sequin. lol.
2. I didn't catch the interview since I was watching the Dallas Stars feed, what did he say?
3. This isn't even top 50 in worst Kevin Lowe moves. Not that Lowe was GM, but that's a different story lol.
4. The CSB had 9 out of 10 scouts rank Hall ahead of Seguin.
I wonder why such a clumsy, dumb, inefficient player has more career points as Seguin and higher PPG. I think they're both close, but to say one is far ahead of the other right now is a stretch in my opinion.

This is the second time it has come up.
Rishaug brought up the injuries in the question not sure why Hall is being blamed for supposedly whining about injuries when it was the reporter who asked him "how tough is it to play with those two guys out?" His answer of other guys have to step up is athlete answer 101.

Since it's pretty obvious the Oilers told him he could play pretty much any way he wanted, I doubt he is at all.

Detroit offered the same thing too... And this is just baseless speculation. Any team, Toronto, Vancouver, New York could've guaranteed him ice time.

Pretty sure Babcock wouldn't be letting him play the way he is in Edmonton.
