Just wait for the HNIC panel on Saturday *cough Freidman cough* to start talking about how there should be the McDavid Rule where if you commit a minor penalty against His Holiness, it's actually a double minor and an automatic disciplinary review.

Also, on the subsequent powerplay, the opposing team has to pull their goalie.

The league needs to do more to protect and promote it's stars. Right Elliotte?

Is this enough though? Referees should wear shoulder patches with 97 on it for non oiler games, and all have the number 97 when officiating oiler games. There should also be two tick boxes on the official score sheet so that the glitter twins can automatically pick up assists on unassisted goals.

I’m thinking that there should be a box referee as well. They should have the sole purpose of approving or declining penalties based upon the oilers broadcast crew. That would ensure that players that they determine “with intent” to skate in the vicinity also get penalized.

Finally, there should be a new penalty added just for one player. It’s the crossover rule. If Mavi isn’t given the opportunity and ice space to complete 5 crossovers “whenever and at Mavi’s convenience”, it’s a 2 minute penalty.

It’s only fair!

I'm surprised we didn't have a sportsnet documentary "The assault of 97" a 6 part series that covers the brutal assault on McDavid, the reconvening of the Nurenberg courts, and McDavid's heart breaking and tough to watch 5 minutes of recovery on the bunch all lovingly shot in black and white with sad music. Followed by his recovery and return to ice shot in virtual reality with the song stylings of Frank Sinatra.

Not wishing an injury on him, but I'm waiting for a documentary on "The Wreck of Old 97" - and how they've mismanaged him. (Apologies to the writers of the original song)

Opening and closing credits (produced, directed, and starring Mavi) to the Luba song “let it go” but with the sing along chorus badly overdubbed with”let’s go”.

The McDavid dive on the slightest of contact from Johnny last week for me represents a new low.

He is the likely the most solid player on his skates in the league and to flop like that to draw a penalty against a terrible team shows there is nothing they won’t do.

They are the most embarrassing franchise by the widest of margins and it starts with their captain.

White Hightop Chucks = $65
Tube of Liquid-Tex Fabric Paint = $8.99
Iron-On Oilers fabric decal = $0.89

Custom Chucks for galavanting about the Ice District = NO GOOD!

The Oilers sneakers don't even come in sizes that accommodate most Edmontonians who, owing to Brother-Sister Love, tend to have extra toes and/or asymmetrical sized feet.

So McDavid, the whiny little bitch, opts out of the fastest skater competition at the all star game. Aww Princess, haven’t been able to win it so don’t want to do it anymore. Not surprised in the least. He asked to go into the shooting accuracy event instead. What a weenie!!

I don't remember who won last year. Was it MacKinnon?
