The Bonfire of the Oilers

Why am I so sure of these Oilers? There’s been a fire burning in the eyes of Connor McDavid all season. Now that same fire lights up Leon Draisaitl and Ryan Nugent-Hopkins. It’s in Nurse, Kane, and Hyman. It has spread to the role players, to the newcomers, and to the goalies.

It’s this fire that has me convinced of a coming Oilers victory. Do you see it?

it’s a bonfire of ambition and aggression. It’s burning on the fuel of the team’s talent, size and hard-won hockey acumen.

Good luck to any opposing team trying to put it out.

I've been to a few bonfires in my day. None of them included any aggression nor ambition, other than to get drunk and party with idiots.

That's not a fire in Conner's eyes. That is irrefutable proof his brain has gone missing. Must be the water.

I thought the Oilers were supposed to rest McDavid down the stretch?

The Broberg-Bouchard pairing is the 9th worst in the league in terms of goals against per 60 minutes. The Oilers are the playoff team with a pairing in the bottom 15.

I thought those two were supposed to be Norris-winning Hall of Famers?

Should Broberg even be in the NHL?

The Bouchard Broberg pairing hasn’t even been a pairing for the last half the season

Someone got stuck inside the cities worst display of public art. The astounding thing is that this is the first time this has happened.

I wouldn't call 19 games half a season, but to each their own.

“Da oilerz aren’t even top three!!!” - tied for forth most powerplays in the league, only two out of top three, leagues biggest baby fans who suck.

I can't any one seriously who wears the sperm egg jersey in public.

But also, that's still too many oiler power plays, and certainly much more than they've actually earned.

Ever since Gaudreau got denied a legit penalty shot infraction while McDavid got one the other way without even being tapped its evident that there is a separate standard for those losers.

Well Bouchard played 1477 minutes and 331 were with Broberg.

In 19 games he’s played 263 minutes with Ekholm.

So I guess I’d call it less then half a season.

What would you call it?

There is a 0% chance there isn’t a concerted effort on behalf of the league to try to get the Oilers a Cup win. Fan viewing is down badly in the US and they need their poster boy to get a Cup to start the marketing campaign. The NHL is a business, it is no longer the best team wins unfortunately, striving closer to the WWE than true sport.
