Quality Oil
Help
I haven't even reviewed my comments.
But I remember thinking that it was twilight zone material for Pronger to be coming to the Oilers. This being the same guy that as a NHLPA rep who was fervent in his statements that small market clubs like the Oilers didn't belong in the NHL. I thought Pronger was a hypocrite to come here after his statements and never felt he would stay long or belong. He was a hired gun.
Also I have a perennial distaste for the St Louis Blues who pretty much since they got in the NHL have had a phoney tough style of play. A team that's tough in regular season that never does anything when it counts. Indeed the latter was one of my knocks on Pronger as well so I was surprised on how well he played in our post season.
All that said I don't like the Pronger personality. The player impressed me.
I want to buy you a beer, you beautiful cynical *******.
