Why not honor the likes of the most popular title, or put it to a poll? New title is steadfast, mediocre.

Katzing couch is hilarious and so is to Katz a predator, especially in the off-season when nothing is going on. If you gotta explain and justify that a toilet seat going up and down is the best option, then it probably isn't the best option.

I’m not a fan of making light of a sexual predator.

That said, the actual title of this thread should be flushed.

Katzing couch is dumb and to Katz a Predator is funny but doesn’t say anything about the team in any way.

It’s not so much that the best option needed explanation, but providing one was a favour to the strugglers.

The thread title really couldn’t be anything other than what it is. Well done.

I think the more I think about it the more I laugh that Holland couldn’t think of something other than a toilet seat in terms of something going up and down. Classic Edmonton.

Title = good
E = NG

The Katz pun options make no sense given its 'Kates' not 'Cats'

A lottery would have been more appropriate.

Just a reminder that Darnell Nurse is making 12 million dollars this year.

Avs fans don’t understand how lucky they got this year. If Oilers had a healthy Nurse and Drai, plus a goalie like Campbell, you wouldn’t be the Stanley Cup champs right now, it would be the Oilers.
Closest sweep in history

I dont know about the rest of you but I think the 'Toilet Seat' thing is absolutely hysterical.

I'm not big on trivializing unsubstantiated sex crimes, so that one doesnt do it for me.

But the fact that an NHL Executive....nay, any adult human being in any position of some responsibility would use that phrase in a media interview...I'd think it would be preposterous.

And yet here we are.

I mean...I can think of a dozen things that 'go up and down' that I could allude to if necessary, all are better than a 'toilet seat.' Its insane.

And yet here we are.

Fully agree with Locke. A grown ass executive compared the franchise to a toilet seat on national television. There's no topping that.
