Just found out Ritchie Valens died at 17! so tragic. As a music fan it seemed like the world was robbed of a great talent.

For him to remake/turn a song like La Bamba into a hit is remarkable.

I am disappointed I don't know more about him.
Yeah, he was a good singer for his age. I really like Buddy Holly's music too. Both of them lads and The Big Bopper were all killed together in a plane crash. "La Bamba" is a decent biopic of him as is The Buddy Holly Story. Lou Diamond Phillips is Ritchie Valens and Gary Busey is Buddy Holly in their respective films.

My favorite producers sample a lot of their music from past legends in soul, blues, jazz, rock & roll, hip hop etc and turn it into their own sound. I've mentioned it in previous threads. Kanye, Pharell, Kaytranada (Canadian btw) all incredible producers. A lot of times I hear song I like and I am lost in a rabbit hole of great artist they've sampled their music off of.

*Aaliyah also passed too young. Truly a trendsetter.
Ya I didn't know he died in a plane crash with buddy Holly

As for the game, I will be happy if we let in less than four. Four just feels like it's normal now lol

The last game they had this early was against the Blues and it was awful. EDM looked like zombies. Hopefully less zombie-like this time around. Also hoping for more McDavid goals and points. I'm really rooting for him to win a Rocket this year. lol

Dallas is going to be tough test but I don’t think the loss to New Jersey is going to sit right with this group. We’ll come out looking for redemption.

Will be interesting to see how the team comes out after the collapse last game.

If theres one dman who has the ability to shutdown McDavid, its Heiskanen. Hopefully Woocroft uses home ice to get him away from him sometimes.

Would be nice to see some others chip in against Dallas.

I realized this way back in the 90's and without dyslexia. Probably before then because we used to talk backwords in code so that nobody like parents would catch on. uoy tog eht eibbed seod sallad oediv? doog doog!

Stuff like that.
Your parents might not have known the code, but your wife is around the same age as you and does.

Can Campbell let in fewer than 4 goals?
Campbell is kind of disappointing. Not better than Talbot, Koskinen, Smith. if it was not for Skinner's stellar performances Oilers could be a 50% team right now.
