Agree with team assessment.

But IMO you're way off with Rakell. Having a crap year with a crap team. Hmm where have we seen that before?
I'd have that 30-35 goal scorer on my yeam anyday.

Could be. I liked him before. What on Earth happened to him this season. He's not only not scoring, he's just a horrible player all round this year. His compete level has really gone down.

One of the really disappointing things in the NHL is how increasingly common it is for players now to have complete mail in seasons or multiples of them. Players that do that, I have limited respect for.

I have all kinds of patience for players that have a substandard 10 or 20 games but complete season of dog f***ing is not acceptable.

But man, the Ducks are so bad. They don't have one upcoming player. lol that they thought Henrique was going to carry the team. Such a wanker. Some players shouldn't be in the WC. Henrique should have stayed in EC.

I’m with you 100%. Anne Hathaway is amazing. Her work in Love And Other Drugs was eye opening.

Most people despise her from what I'm seeing online. She's boring in appearance imo. Like I say wouldn't look a second time. Doesn't help that I don't like any of the kinds of movies she is in. I can't even say I like her acting. Puts me to sleep.

Even Hathaway herself said she's plain and boring. A girl in highschool I would never even think of. The kind you look at in the yearbook and faintly remember.

But beauty truly is in the eyes of the beholder. We all are attracted to different things. She's a bean pole waif to me that looks pale, dour, and dull, dull, dull.

Too small sample for me yet on Currie but based on AHL perfomance and what I see so far I like. A lot. His tenacity is a main ingredient that's missing on this team.

As well, on the condition he continues to play the way he has, I want Cave written in ink as our 3rd line centre next year.

A small victory for ol Pete.

So I googled Josh Currie last night after the game. He impressed the hell out of me so I wanted to check out his past stats etc. I kind of thought he was just a skill guy and was shocked to see the amount of fights hes been in and how well he handles himself in that regard. Was nice to see him and Cave get some offensive looks on the second power play last night as they had a nice game going.

To whomever edited my poll you just ruined the Batman theme!

But for Kate Beckinsale I don't mind.

Currie dropped that Gulls player with a solid hook in the top vid.

If the NHL does nothing, it just proves how ridiculously bush league it is.

Lets suspend McDavid and Karlsson who accidentally skated into opponents who were extending for the puck, but lets let DOPS bad boys Perry and Simmonds get away with intentionally trying to end the career of an opposing player because its the NHL and we make this shit up as we go along.

 

[Mez]

I hope McDavid comes back like a bat out of hell with all the rest he's getting with this suspension and destroys the Leafs

He could score 8 and we'd only lose 10-8!

 

[Mez]

7-0 Preds will bring the Oiler fans back down to earth.

You mean back down to the underworld? Wins here only bring us up to earth.

Awesome team culture down there. I'm thinking about getting an AHL game pass so I can watch them for the rest of the season

Sometimes differences in views are quantifiable. The bolded is just plain wrong. The Ducks didn't have anybody in the lineup that is good at scoring. They are HORRIBLE, absolutely horrible, last place in the league in scoring. The Oilers have 31 more goals than the Ducks. Your argument is not even close to being valid. The Ducks are the team in the league that any goalie would LOVE to play every game against.

Koski has played well the last couple games, but the Ducks severely lack finish. The leading Ducks scorer has lmfao 16 goals. That is FUTILE. We have 4 players with more goals than any Duck. Who do the Ducks have? The ghost of Corey Perry and Kesler? Getzlaf wasn't even in the lineup. That Ducks team is so unskilled its a joke. Even compared to the Oilers.

Man, when Jacob Silvferberg is your leading scorer you should just fold the franchise. Does anybody even go to Ducks games anymore?

Ducks are definitely snakebitten this year, there’s no denying that. Their confidence is down, hey are obviously playing like sh*t. That being said, in their most recent outting, the one that all of us watched, they outchanced the Oilers, they got the cleaner, harder, better placed shots on our goalie. And Kosko came through in flying colors, you can talk about their stats all day long, but the most relevant read of the last nights game is what actually happened in last nights game.

A bean pole waif? Ha. She would fit in nicely bouncing away in a future GDT.

 

[TheNumber4]

Not sure what game you watched tonight. We played pretty decent and kept most of their chances to the outside. Koski made the saves he needed to make, so that was nice to see for once.

So you agree the defence for once wasn’t an entire sh*t show, and Lo and behold Kosko throws up a .971 performance. But let’s not give all the credit to the Oilers defence, the goal against was a complete and utter f*ck up by Benning and Ritchie being left wide open in he slot with time and space to tie the game Kosko bailed us out on. So like I’ve been saving; combine average to mediocre defence with Koskos ability to come up with a big save here and there and we got ourselves a legit starter.

Growing up I worked the rigs.
Never could understand the concept behind the structure of this business practise -
When a worker got hurt in any fashion, if he couldn't return to his position, he joined the safety department and became a part of shaping and planning future objectives.
Couldn't ever wrap my head around that!

Great analogy.

Perry better get jumped next time we play them.

nothing to bounce, and I wouldn't want to look.

Hathaway is an example of everything wrong with movies and Hollywood. Mindless tripe floated out for decades. Wizard of Oz movies so bad people knew Depp had finally completely lost his mind.

I made the mistake of going to an Anne Hathaway movie, Serenity. But I didn't even know she was in it or I would never have gone. I went because I like Matthew McConaughey and he usually has good films.

Serenity is the worst movie since any last Hathaway movie. Indescribably bad. Hathaway is always in movies with idiotic premises. Fables, Princesses, Alice in Blunderlands. So many of her movies are critically panned and not hard to see why.

her types of movie choices, and Hollywood doing these kinds of films so much is why so many people stopped going to movies.

Hathaways last 2 movies of note (only notable due to how lol bad they are) were Collosal, and now this Serenity tripe.

People were walking out of the theater. But being an Oilers fan I'm a sucker for pain and seeing how badly things end.

My lord people, do not see this movie.

But she "endorses it" lol

She's handpicked mindless movies like Princess Diaries, Colossal, multiple Wizard movies, Ella Enchanted, etc. I can't honestly see how anybody over 15 would like her standard dreck. But few people do. Her movies get low ratings almost all the time. How is she still in movies?

You drank way too much last night, lol. I’m fine with you saying you don’t like her movies or that you don’t find her attractive. I get it. But to call her a bean pole or say she has nothing to bounce may very well be the dumbest stuff you’ve ever posted. Check out some of those pictures Batman posted.

The artifacts from Sportsnet's transition and my stream is bugging the hell out of me. Think I'll go frame by frame to fix this and maybe stabilize it too...

Updated:

Here's the updated GIF. That was not fun, but I'm just playing my part in immortalizing these meaningful moments involving McDavid.

 

[Skar]

Man, you guys are picky. If anyone came up to me that looked like them, I'd be sold!

Glad to see the team come together to beat the Ducks. Also sounds like the Condors are a great team. Good for them.

I never thought of it that way but you're right.

Always excused a decent players 20 - 30 junk games as it can happen. But outside of injury or external trauma, what the hell could be the reason for a whole season (or more) to be garbage?
Good point. Most good to great players do not have this aberration.

Like I said beauty is all in the eyes of the beholder. I can't get beyond her face or vacant or dour expression. Just don't like her, that is seldom an objective thing at all. But her movies are truly awful. Its uncanny how many juvenile roles she's been in. Its hard to take seriously. Then she goes into a movie like Serenity and expects actual adults will like it? Nobody did.

Just on another side but its a big issue with Hollywood. Most of what they ever make is comic book movies and fairy tails and bad remakes. So that whole generations of actors/actresses have had a lack of good roles in which to develop. Hollywood is a junk factory and they wonder why people stopped going. How many Transformers movies can anybody want to go to? The worst thing is you stop even being able to see good dramatic actors/actresses in any kind of role that is appealing. you have to watch them in comic book movies or hardly ever see them.
