great game by the aves tonight. :tup:

[Lead]

canucks shutout predators 2-0! :banana:

[Calgarian]

God Damn do the Oilers suck!!!! what a shitty team!! how the hell did this bunch of fucking jokers make it to the final last year. 12 l's in a row, that's got to be some kind of record. Edmonton will probably lose every game for the rest of the season.

[mersar]

It's getting close to a team record, they had 14 in a row back in the early 90's.

[Xelebes]

I thought the league record was 15 (1975 Washington Capitals) and the oiler record was 11 or 12 in 1993?

[Riise]

As badly as I want the Avs off of our asses, seeing a much despised team who's fans passionately defended them from being called a Cinderella Team setting an NHL record for most consecutive losses is really hard to pass up. I mean, who knows when they will suck this bad again? Hopefully soon!!!

probably next year.

[iamthewalrus]

they'll suck for the next 2 years, then they'll get the first round draft pick: John Tavares .....the next Wayne Gretzky....or the next Alexandre Daigle....

[feepa]

Hey Flames Fans!!! You Realize That 3/4 Of Team That Played In The Stanley Cup Last Year For The Oilers Is Either hurt, Sick, Or No Longer With The Team? we Are Fielding An Ahl Team Team Right Now. I Really Hope You Flamers Miss The Fucking Playoffs Too, Cause Your Team Aint Much Better, Sans Injuries!!!! Retards!!!! The Oilers D Is Down To 1 Veteran, Jason Smith!!!! Thats Not Even A Number 4 D On Most Teams!!!! Some Of You Have Seem To Forgotten That What Was Supposed To Be The Center Piece Of The Oilers Got His Dick Caught In Some Young Girl, And His Wife Caught Him And Demanded A Trade!!!! I'm Sure Your Team Would Be Down And Out Too If All These Changes Happened.
I'm Sure If We Fielded The Same Team, Without The Injuries, (even Minus Peca And Spacek Who Were Rentals) The Oilers Would Be First Or Second In The Division.

Now Bitches, Its 730 Am, I'm At Work, And Without Coffee. Wanna state another stupid statement?

ITS KINDA FUNNY THAT THE WONDERFUL FLAMES ARE COUNTING ON THE OILERS TO WIN, DON'T YOU THINK TO GET IN THE PLAYOFFS?

GO AVS GO!!!!

[Calgarian]

In a good mood are we? lol The Flames SHOULD have been the best team in the west with the lineup we are dressing, but low and behold, we are battling for the playoffs with colorado who has won 9 of their last 10 games (soon to be 10).

um these oilers didnt make the cup you fuck....a whole other team did.

The Oilers are good for nothing. Thanks a lot you Douchebags. ;)

we made it to overtime the other game, so it doesn't really matter thats a record thats not going to be broken by the Oil this year.

[Coldrsx]

Wow, sensitive eh? lol.

yah a bit...

:cheers:


OH in other news, I won a signed Ales Hemsky jersey last night at fan appreciation night.:tup:

Ales Hemskey will be an amazing player if he ever finds some good linemates.

[Distill3d]

been an oiler fan my whole life.

frankly, i hope smyth doesn't sign back with edmonton.

there is no way he should be getting ~$6MIL a year for putting up 70 points.

it's the intangibles you say?

well, his intangibles didn't help him win a cup did they?

after what is it now 11 or 12 straight losses, all since Smyth has been traded, I would tend to think that his "intangibles" certainly did a hell of a lot for the Oilers winning games.

...lowe did the right thing

care to retract that statement now?

[Calgarian]

they'll suck for the next 2 years, then they'll get the first round draft pick: John Tavares .....the next Wayne Gretzky....or the next Alexandre Daigle....

lets hope he is neither Daigle or an Oiler. :whip:

[Xelebes]

Looks like Philadelphia is going to get 1st picks. We might get 3rd or 4th picks.

[lubicon]

Looks like Philadelphia is going to get 1st picks. We might get 3rd or 4th picks.

I do believe the Oil have 3 picks in the first round, unless they use them as part of a trade. Too bad it's not a strong draft this year.

[Xelebes]

I do believe the Oil have 3 picks in the first round, unless they use them as part of a trade. Too bad it's not a strong draft this year.

True that.

They get 3rd or fourth, maybe a 16th pick (NYI) and a 24-28th pick (ANA). So we should at least get some good 2nd liners in a couple years. One of them might turn out to be real good.

[Xelebes]

we made it to overtime the other game, so it doesn't really matter thats a record thats not going to be broken by the Oil this year.


Which record? Pointless streak or loss streak? Just remember, there were no overtime losses in '75.

[bayrider]

It's too bad Edmonton has 3 1st round picks in this years draft which is considered to be among the very worst in terms of talent in years.

As for Smyth, the guy is good, but not great. The way everyone tlaks about him, and the salary his set to earn, you'd think he was a 40-50 goal guy... he is not. A tad overrated is what he is because of his style of play... which, believe it or not, is not game breaking ability like most $6M players.

[shappy]

check out the Belak/Janssen retribution fight for the Janssen concussion-inducing (and very questionable) hit on Kaberle earlier this month...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rAVkXuKk2kc

[iamthewalrus]

^
not a bad fight, at first it looked like janssen was gonna get destroyed....but the guy didnt fall down....Belak is much bigger....i'm not a big fan of fights in hockey but janssen kind of deserved it, kaberle didnt have the puck and it was a pretty high it....

[Calgarian]

Anyone see Orr knock out Fedoruk? What a punch, apparently Orr broke his jaw.here comes the no fighting advocates...Again.

damn lucky overtime goal damn lucky

[ScottFromCalgary]

Wooooohoooooo! Go Flames Go! I guess we had to beat Nashville sometime...

[Rusty van Reddick]

HOLY FUCKING SHIT.

That felt good.

[skrish]

That was playoff style hockey!!!

[Calgarian]

WOW!!! what a game that was!!! probably one of the best games I've seen all year. Hopefully the Oilers will show up tomorrow night to give us a little breathing room. This is going to be a TOUGH road trip, but i have faith that we can go .600 on the road, and win our last 2 home games and make the playoffs with 4 points to spare.

[ScottFromCalgary]

I too think we will make the playoffs, but I would bet the pink slip for my car that we blow the afternoon game in Chicago. As long as I have been alive we've been shit on the road in the afternoon.

[The Chemist]

damn lucky overtime goal damn lucky

Lucky? Come on, give some credit where it's due. Perfect pass from Tangs, perfect tip by Warrener. Not lucky in the slightest.

Great win! Fantastic win! I bet the Avs were in their hotel rooms in the first half of the third period thinking they'd only be 4 points back going into their game with Edmonton, but the team showed tremendous heart getting this win.

Now, we NEED NEED NEED to win on the road. Our season depends on it now.

[Jay in Cowtown]

Thank Christ... they're back to playing some defense.

Good win tonight, I'm keeping faith in em'.

Scott, you're probably right about Chicago... Calgary has a hard time winning there, especially in the afternoon.

[Calgarian]

I think the Flames will do it, they are desperate now, they have the playoffs in mind and are playing playoff hockey.

Colorado is finished their streak, 9 of their last 10 is really good, but Budaj and Theodore are still mediocre goalies. The Oilers HAVE to show up tomorrow. I mean seriously, 13 losses in a row? they can't be that bad, they have to win one. If they lose, don't invite anyone back next season, start from scratch.

[excel]

They are that bad^

[Distill3d]

I guess you missed my previous comments about 3/4 of the normal team not playing. Fielding 12th and 13th placed d... one from the QMJHL? most of the team played most of the year in AHL this year.

Colorado will win, without a doubt. 5-2 Avs. Oilers next win wont come until they play Chicago in 3 games

[Calgarian]

Colin Campbell is saying the NHL is going to take a hard look at fighting. Here we go, let the bullshit begin.

[JBinCalgary]

i cant believe what happened to my leafs tonite :(

[shappy]

brutal third period...

they still have a very slight chance of making the playoffs but I fear the loss against Washington and this loss tonight may have sealed the deal.

[Wooster]

Oilers Win!!! Oilers Win!!!

That was gross to say.

5 points up. 8 games left.

[Coldrsx]

^haha


ROLLI was unreal

oh and hemsky back

[JBinCalgary]

its kinda sick saying it, and its the only time you will here me say it.
thanks edmonton

[Coldrsx]

oh...a new sig for me...

[m0nkyman]

I wore my Edmonton jersey to work today....

I may have to do that more often.

[SHOFEAR]

fucking oilers can't even lose right.

[skrish]

Good on the Oil. Roli was huge for you guys.

[Boris2k7]

Great stuff Oilers! :cool:

...

... I'm going to go wash my mouth out with soap now... :yuck:

[JBinCalgary]

booo yah,
im famous now!

[Xelebes]

Uhhh... what was the score?

[mersar]

4-3 oilers, winner came in the SO.

[Distill3d]

Hate having to say this publicly, but "let's go Oilers" came out of my mouth a few times tonight.

Luckily, I had a couple shots of Jagermiester to knock the senses back into me :haha:

[Xelebes]

4-3 oilers, winner came in the SO.

So Colorado got a point. Hrm.

[bayrider]

Not to gloat, even though I'm a Habs fan, but that was a majour choke job by the Leafs tonight in Buffalo.

[circle33]

Not to gloat, even though I'm a Habs fan, but that was a majour choke job by the Leafs tonight in Buffalo.

Yes. Yes it was.

[Calgarian]

Good on you Edmonton!! you can go back to sucking now.
Edmonton and Toronto are going to miss the playoffs, what more can a Calgary fan ask for.

Dont worry, if in fact you do make the playoffs, Nashville or Detroit will be sure to make sure your golfing in 6 games or less.

[401_King]

either calgary is gonna go out quick or they are gonna pull off yet another year of an alberta team playoff run

[Calgarian]

I think Detroit would lose to the Flames in 6, Hasek is too old and Osgood sucks.

[Boris2k7]

Nashville's going to be a bitch though...

[LordMandeep]

Calgary's offence is the key imo...

[mersar]

Well it seems that the oilers win the other night was a fluke, its 4-0 nashville currently :| ah well. to be expected :P

[Calgarian]

Edmonton sucks :banana: :banana: :banana:

[feepa]

Well it seems that the oilers win the other night was a fluke, its 4-0 nashville currently :| ah well. to be expected :P

Nashville = best in the west
Colorado = likely wont make the playoffs, unless Calgary takes a major dive (please please please!!!)

[Jay in Cowtown]

This home and home with Vancouver will tell the tale if Colorado's for real or not... come on Casucks!

[Distill3d]

This home and home with Vancouver will tell the tale if Colorado's for real or not... come on Casucks!

not that i disagree with you, but we (Calgary) still need to beat Chicago this afternoon :yes:

[Calgarian]

Chicago always gives us a tough game, this is a must win game today, lets hope they don't blow it.

[viperred88]

Calgary 3
Chicago 2


so, what kinda car you got? :haha:

[Calgarian]

Now lets see how we can handle 2 in Minnesota.

[ScottFromCalgary]

Calgary 3
Chicago 2


so, what kinda car you got? :haha:

I'm really gonna miss that Mazda.;)

[JBinCalgary]

good win for calgary today

[Calgarian]

lol, Edmonton is tied with Columbus now, talk about crash and burn.

[bayrider]

Now lets see how we can handle 2 in Minnesota.

I dunno... Minny is tough to beat at home and the Flames suck on the road.

[mersar]

NO! Colorado won in the SO. Back to 5 points apart.

[Lead]

holy shit. colorado REALLY wants to catch you guys.

[JBinCalgary]

damnit

[Hardhatdan]

lol, Edmonton is tied with Columbus now, talk about crash and burn.
Have you seen who is on the team right now...seriously, its not even really an NHL team.

[Calgarian]

excuses, excuses. ;)

[Calgarian]

Flames win and Colorado Lose, the playoffs seem very likely now.

[Wooster]

yeah and the flames are exercising some demons of late. We are winning lots in the shootout including iggy scoring and kipper saving, we are winning close, low scoring games again finally, we are winning a bit more on the road, we beat Nashville for once. Good time to have figured things out. If they are hot going into the playoffs, not a lot of teams will be wanting them as opposition.

[Distill3d]

I know this may toss out any intellectual credability I may have had, but:


Colorado's 8 pts back, do da do da

Colorado sucked tonight, do da do da

Calgary's gonna kick some but, oh da do da day

:banana:

[skrish]

^ 7 pts back Distill3d

Kipper stood on his head and was the only reason we won tonight. Lets hope this success on the road continues.

[Calalb]

Now lets see how we can handle 2 in Minnesota.
One down and one to go!! :D What a great result tonite. Also, Thank-You Vancouver!

[habsfan]

The Habs are back in the playoff picture. 5 wins in a row, and 7 wins in their last 8 games.

Thank you to the leafs for beating up on the Canes!

[sync]

as an oiler fan i can only hope the NYI miss the playoffs so the pick the oilers got from them will be worth more.

[feepa]

At least the Oilers played a decent game against Nashville last night.

1-0 in a shootout? My god

[Calgarian]

as an oiler fan i can only hope the NYI miss the playoffs so the pick the oilers got from them will be worth more.

That is going to be an interesting playoff race in the East. Go Isles.:banana:

[Rusty van Reddick]

If Carolina doesn't make the playoffs, will this be the first time that both teams in the previous season's championships fail to make the playoffs? That can't have happened very often.

[twoNeurons]

One down and one to go!! :D What a great result tonite. Also, Thank-You Vancouver!

Anytime... now would you mind beating Minny tomorrow?

[sync]

If Carolina doesn't make the playoffs, will this be the first time that both teams in the previous season's championships fail to make the playoffs? That can't have happened very often.

We'll see what we can do.

Saw this in the Newspaper,

Edmonton, Canada - A seven year old boy was at the centre of an Edmonton
courtroom drama yesterday when he challenged a court ruling over who
should have custody of him. The boy has a history of being beaten by his
parents and the judge initially awarded custody to his aunt, in keeping
with the child custody law and regulations requiring that family unity
be maintained to the degree possible. The boy surprised the court when
he proclaimed that his aunt beat him more than his parents and he
adamantly refused to live with her.

When the judge suggested that he live with his grandparents, the boy
cried out that they also beat him. After considering the remainder of
the immediate family and learning that domestic violence was apparently
a way of life among them, the judge took the unprecedented step of
allowing the boy to propose who should have custody of him.

After two recesses to check legal references and confer with child
welfare officials, the judge granted temporary custody to the Edmonton
Oiler's, whom the boy firmly believes are not capable of beating anyone.
