Hopefully I'm wrong but that's my underlying concern.
I agree that the McPP could obviously be a factor, but I still believe that any one of Colorado, Seattle, Winnipeg, or even L.A. would dismantle them in 6 games or less. Games are still called differently in the playoffs, and there’s no 3 on 3.

No, we really don't. MacLean thinks of an excuse to bring up his boy during every intermission on HNIC.
Totally. We are at peak Mavi. That statistically aligns with the proven equation e=ng.

Let’s say that Mavi has an expiring contract. And he does. Let’s say that he doesn’t plan to re-sign in greaserville. Let’s say that oilies know this and need to make a decision on a time to trade. His maximum trade value is this season and next. They won’t move him this season. They might have to do something at the end of next season or they risk getting less back. He is aging. Not perceptually to me, but he is getting older. All of the individual statistics don’t really correlate to team success; teams don’t win with one player. They do translate into a bigger trade package when one player has to move. Let’s say that Mavi stays; he will need a larger financial deal and long term commitment. How does that look with an increased cap? Does Mavi get it all? Did I mention Father Time is undefeated?

And then there’s pissy in the shadows. Does he want his own rose ceremony? He will want term and a lot more money.

Soon enough, Staples’ video analysis will be about the plot twists in the latest rerun of the golden girls. “It looks like Edna is the perfect wing woman for Olga, like the way Kurri and Gretzky used to chase women on whyte.”

The amount of obstruction the Oilers got away with in their own zone there.

Boyle Street Bubba saw his shadow, so there's six months more of No Good.

Oilers fans in the replies are rubbing this in Flames fans faces. As if we’re gonna cry over losing Biz from the bandwagon. Y’all can have him.

Hey, maybe this what was holding the Flames back all along and why the team wasn't amounting to the sum of its parts

Biz leaving might finally break the dam

Latest official post on the NHL application.

Connor McDavid did not miss a target in the Accuracy Shooting, going 8-for-8, but he didn't win.

McDavid couldn't settle the puck in time so he lost to Nazem Kadri.

Did McDavid care? You bet. He came back to the bench shaking his head about just not being able to settle it.

1. Are folks really that stupid?

2. What are "clear bathrooms?" Are they the ones with circular urinals?

They are the ones that have fixtures that are "clearly" toilets, and possibly not sinks. Because you know those animals just piss anywhere.

There are public washrooms on the corner of Gateway Blvd and Whyte Ave. The outside walls are glass so folks can see into for like security or whatever (the stalls are private)
