The Halak trade paying off.

Lars Eller should be the #2 center of this team even when Blomez comes back.

Jesus, Ottawa. This is the team everyone picked for #30. Crazy.

mintzilla · #**983** Posted **Oct 31, 2011, 6:16 AM**

5 in a row for the oil. first in the west, 2nd overall. team is looking good.

Coldrsx · #**984** Posted **Oct 31, 2011, 3:06 PM**

^great game by the oil... should have been about 7-2... lots of missed open nets. Great to see RNH and SCHMITTY light it up. Once again Khabi is the king!

Calgarian · #**985** Posted **Oct 31, 2011, 3:16 PM**

Lets see if the Oilers can keep it up. They've been very impressive so far, but there's a long way to go.

Flames have been a bit better of late, especially Kipper, he's been a wall!

Coldrsx · #**986** Posted **Oct 31, 2011, 3:29 PM**

^Not a bhulin wall!

We have some gaps in our game and have 2 lines that can't score... just you wait.

His numbers are good right now, but I fully expect them to come back down to normal levels very soon. Having a team playing really well in front of you definitely helps your stats out. Surprised his numbers are above Quick, that guy already has 3 shut-outs!

Hey, you gotta enjoy it while it lasts.

You should start referring to Edmonton as Swaggerville now. lol

Man, I hate to say it, but Ottawa is on fire..

Our defense didn't play very well, and other than the 3rd goal, I though Gus was fantastic yet again. That Rundblad pass to Greening was one of the best passes I've ever seen! (Though I'm kind of wondering why Schenn and Phaneuf were in the neutral zone split apart and allowed someone to get behind them on the PK)..

Oh well, still 2nd in the east!

That wasn't Kippers fault, it was the rest of the team who forgot to show in in game 7, until they realized in the last 10 minutes that they were about to lose the cup, then they decided to play.

I still think we won in game 6.

You did. Calgary has always been my 2nd favourite team, and favourite in the west, and I almost put my foot through my tv when that happened!

freeweed · #**997** Posted **Oct 31, 2011, 7:27 PM**

Of course we won in game 6. What's this game 7 nonsense you're speaking of? Is that like the Star Wars prequels, or Matrix sequels?

I swear, some people hallucinate a lot of things.

Guys, stop arguing!!!
