Pre-Game Talk: Christmas Duck

[Shaquille Oatmeal]

Just kidding. My first crush was that chick from saved by the bell:

 

[brentashton]

My first celebrity crush, Patrick Swayze:

View attachment 622757look at the package on that guy!

Whenever I see a shirtless Swayze, I can’t help but think of Chris Farley. All the good ones leave too soon.

 

[Ritchie Valens]

Afternoon game against arguably the worst team in the league…why do I have a bad feeling about this one?

...and they're likely playing the 3rd string goalie since Stollarz and Gibson are on the shelf.

Celebrity crushes?

Lea Thompson. Fell in love with her when I was about 10 or 11 and I saw Back to the Future for the first time.

I actually wound up working with a girl who was a dead ringer for her but my God, what a bitch.

 

[BlackDogg]

Piss on afternoon games

 

[Lacaar]

This game will tell us a lot about the character and determination of this team.

They know they blew the last game. The leadership knows they cost the game with a bad pass and cheating for the empty netter. They put the individual stats above the team. Let's see how they respond. I'm thinking this gets ugly fast. For once they're going to come out like gang busters.

Man if I was younger and still in my party days I'd be pissed now that my team is now the designated Canada Saturday afternoon game. I'm pissed already to be honest. I wasn't planning on watching but I am interested to gauge the leadership response after last game.

 

[94 Oil Drops]

LOL thanks for spicing up my thread guys. I can't really recall who my first celebrity crush was.

I'm guessing Campbell is playing? Hopefully we won't need to win this one 7-6.

It really is crazy how willing to trade Barrie everyone is, including myself most times, when he’s consistently such a strong point producer from the back end, which is something we lacked for so long.

It’s really too bad we’re not set up to have both he and Bouchard on the right side.

Ideally Bouchard on the third pair and Barrie on the second pair with a top pairing RD beside Nurse, and defensively reliable LD to pair with each of them would make for a solid group of Dmen.

Nurse ____
_____ Barrie
Kulak Bouchard
Nemo/Broberg

Agreed, Woodcroft says they studied the St.Louis game. We’ll see.

 

[Gordy Elbows]

With all the recent trade rumours involving the Ducks, I wonder if/which Oiler will be flying back to Anaheim after the game.
Will watch to see who gets scratched from the lineup- both teams.
Good game to get some Oilers on the scoreboard.

Some women are just nice to look at…until you discover their personality (or lackthereof)

[Furious Nerd]

Another chance for the Oilers to jump into 2nd in the Pacific, at least for a few hours.

LA plays SJS tonight.

True, just like the Calgary Flames Miss December.

 

[Drivesaitl]

First Crush Linda Harrison. Planet of the Apes. She made me want to be an astronaut or space cadet. Couldn't stop thinking about her and she was in two of the movies.
Raven haired goddess.

Holy eff. If my daughters brought that home…well, let’s just say they know better.

That’s a lady in that Calgary Flames pinup pic.

 

[BigFuzzyDice]

Nothing like a midday game ro not get the blood flowing.

On the upside, calgary continuing to find their level while quietly sniveling about the missing scoring turtle and jawknee hawky aren't there to provide is quite the salve fir nurses dumb move

Oh my.

I looked up Calgary Flames Miss December and all I got was past articles of the Flames missing the postseason/opportunities to advance in the playoffs. I like Google

He needs them to study some automobile races. You don't take hour foot off the hammer till the checkered flag waves

 

[bellagiobob]

Tell me, who was your first celebrity crush?

Raquel Welch and Farrah Fawcett.

Everyone forgets how important locker room culture is as well and it's pretty clear that Barrie is an important face in there. Produces points, scores big goals and is a team player. I'd rather we keep him.


And the chick from Weird Science. First crush.

 

[brentashton]

Raquel Welch and Farrah Fawcett.

Her poster wearing the red bikini was on my wall!

 

[Old Boys Club]

Split up McDrai already for f***s sakes.

We could get a real good player and a prospect for Bouchard. We would need Broberg to step up though
