Post-Game Talk: A Browning Achievement: Oilers defeat Agent 47 and the Feds

[Stoneman89]

Big, big shoutout to the fans at the game last night, with their incredibly classy standing O and support of a player in need of a lot of support and love. There's been people on here that say our fans drive players out of town. I don't believe it for a second and the display last night speaks to the exact opposite. Way to go, Edmonton!

Lmfao this does not surprise me. The entire movie feels like a video game like streets of rage. It’s literally Gary Daniels going through different areas beating up a million guys lmao. There is no talking at all

Happy to say I was wrong. Brown > Gagner/Holloway/Ryan

Was a special moment to be in the crowd. My buddy predicted that he’d score today too. Glad for Brown!

Don't feel bad I compared signing Hyman to Clarkson

Hire a crane and be done with it.

The pyramid climb may not happen but I do want to explore the gitch from the flagpole in greater detail.

The one game I have a family commitment goddamn

I missed it too. Son came down from for a few days, so that trumps all. Spent today on the road and will tomorrow as well. I hope I can see Saturdays match.

Can’t love this post enough. It was a great moment !

 

[GOilers88]

Lol love how happy Kane is right there.

 

[Whoshattenkirkshoes]

Completely agree, I feel like people who are saying he looked better than Ceci would've said anyone looked better than Ceci lol. Ceci is clearly the better player imo, he just had a rough stretch recently. But I think before this stretch he was like +15 on the season.

I mean cmon. Stetcher played his off side and looked decent for game 1. He was solid for his role.

Those of you saying Stetcher didn't look good are the same people not putting Connor Brown into your projected line ups.

Observe and make the call before hand.


Stetcher can play

That was one of the most entertaining games of the season, very happy for Brown. We sure love our scrubs and fringe players in this fanbase.

Interesting to me that we have a player in Edmonton who has had multiple 50-goal, 100pt seasons, Art Ross, Hart, one of the best playoff performers ever, who has given most of his prime years to the Oilers, yet the crowd at Rogers has never once chanted his name and he perpetually gets ragged on by fans on social media and call-in shows for being lazy and having bad body language.

The crowd hasn't ever chanted McDavid's name either. Will be a funny thing to tell the grandkids one day I guess.

Don’t be lazy and have bad body language?

Yah they get mvp chants instead. Talk about making a deal about nothing.

Remember when fans were chanting Kassian? Did that also upset you because it wasn’t McDrais names?

 

[tiger_80]

Brown scored lol. I hope this get him going more on the score sheet

I hope this keeps his wife happy, lest she drop him for Singh!

I think he's a sold 7th d, good pickup for the playoffs. I wouldn't play him over Ceci.

Yes. I don't think Leon gets enough love from a portion of this fanbase.

When you consistently provide excellence, it gets taken for granted. I know, I was around for the Gretzky years. It's human nature, nothing more, probably happens in any other city in a similar situation.

We had a really nice moment for a fringe player and the fans, and you're focusing on McDavid and Draisaitl not getting any love.

Wow, I bet that how hard he smiled was the cause of some locker room tension, trying to enjoy his teammates achievement. What selfishness.

Imagine how Brown felt.

 

[TopShelfGloveSide]

Yes. I don't think Leon gets enough love from a portion of this fanbase.

I do think he gets under appreciated sometimes but he would probably be the first one to tell you he liked the brown chants.

 

[VainGretzky]

Either that or scoring #50 in Toronto when they play the Leafs next week

Nah he is saving that game for 4 goals

 

[Jimmi McJenkins]

Are we arguing about Brown getting some love for breaking his crazy streak of goallessness? Seems dumb.

I could be wrong but believe that poster has fretted about McDavid signing with the Leafs a number of times so could be influenced a bit by that perception ("he's not appreciated here")

 

[guymez]

I find that the opinions I see on HFBoards don't really reflect what I hear from Oilers fans in real life. This place attracts some of the most negative fans around.

We have Oilers "fans" on here actively cheering against players like Skinner and Brown.

100%
Its quite an odd thing isnt it?

 

[Fourier]

I could be wrong but believe that poster has fretted about McDavid signing with the Leafs a number of times so could be influenced a bit by that perception ("he's not appreciated here")

And yet I would be willing to bet that McDavid was as happy to hear the crowd's reaction as Brown was.

On a Wednesday night, at around 10:15 pm 4 days into Daylight Savings, during an entertainment event that had turned very fun, the crowd decided to have more fun and acknowledge someone who had been struggling. It did not feel any more complicated than that, to me, in the crowd.
