I always wanted him as our coach until we found Peters we will see what this does to that team. Hope he fails there

Havent read the whole thread but did Tippett actually say draistl would play with mcdavid? So the whole 'hes a centre' farce should be over, right?

He was last year too and they were 9th ranked in the league. Not really an issue.

It got hot in the 2nd half of the season when Hitcock went all-in on inflating the personal stats of their top two players. I could run that powerplay as it was primarily McDavid passing to Draisaitl for the one timer from the hash marks. It was successful but teams will try to take that away next season.

It was actually worse in the second half of the season, 20.9% vs 21.6% in the first half.

The more important thing was that Trent Yawney who Oil fans were over the moon about getting, who was supposed to put starch in the Oilers shorts, and lead their defense to levels of awesomeness not seen since the 76 Habs featuring a young non mustachioed Larry Robinson was kicked to the curb today.

to be honest, I don't think he cares enough about how many points McDavid gets to have any urge to bet on it.
You are saying PPG on your end of the bet...so 82 points. Basically exactly what he is saying.

Be a man, if you are so confident and he is ridiculous let's go with 110 points over under.

I say under.

Their whole power play after the ASG was as follows skip ahead to 1:17 since time embedding doesn't appear to work:

They fired Manny Viveiros...when they hired him, wasn't he projected to be an awesome up and comer by people outside of Edmonton? Different background...lots of time spent coaching in Europe, came back and won a championship with speedy creek in two years behind bench, then oilers scooped him.

Did they keep the wrong assistant?

I'm confident McDavid is more than a 75 point player no matter who the coach is. If someone says 75 to 85 points MAX, then he set the line and should stand by it.

How many players get 110 points a year? That's silly to assume it's a given for anyone, even McDavid. Especially if McDavid learns a 200 foot game.

I'm confident in McDavid skills but not blindly so, and doesn't mean I'm going to be goaded into a bad bet.

Default Oilers to announce Tippett as new coach today

What’s stopping this Oilers guy from coming back under some other assumed name? And why does it matter?

At least make the stakes interesting, like Scorp’s summer of dickbutt.

Bingo would/ could stop me. You have to give your real identity to join.

You want stakes interesting to you? Make a bet with someone then .

Why would it matter? It doesn't really. But look at it this way. I lose and that's one less person from Edmonton here. I win, it's only one person who has to not mock Edmonton. There are still hundreds who can and will .

Just a harmless, fun bet.

At 12.5M he better be closer to 100 than 80

PPG is not enough for that kinda money

Sounds like a lose-lose for Flames fans....I want as many posters as possible mocking the Oilers...and I want as many Oilers fans as possible to endure the mocking resulting from another pathetic season for their club. Every time I feel bad for the fan base up north..I remember the cocky trolls that come out in another month when the Oilers sign the next Reider or trade for the next Reinhart.
