Post-Game Talk: Just when you think you've hit rock bottom...

[McAsuno]

Does anyone remember or have Caggiula's comments after the trade?

Caggiula ‘more comfortable’ in Chicago after trade

“I think I was maybe walking on eggshells trying to please certain people and all that certain stuff. Now I’m forgetting all about that and just playing hockey again. I got a fresh start here in a new organization and I’m able to just come in with a clear mind and play hockey without having to think. That’s making it a lot easier for me.”
Caggiula saying he was looking to please certain persons in the OEG while feeling as if he was walking on eggshells are interesting comments and not necessarily a good look for the Edmonton Oilers. He could, too, be referring to the awkward time post-trade before he arrived in Chicago that forced him to practice with the Sherwood Park Crusaders.

Happy Chinese New Year everybody.

Not to be confused with Chiaese New Year.

We should just use the rest of this thread to show more pics of Alicia.

He's going to have a better season than Koskinen next year.

Book it.

Agreed. I think he ends up in Philly next year, as a backup to Hart. Hart already trains with him, is clearly destined for greatness, and just needs a high end 1B/backup so he’s not in over his head. I bet you it’s a 52/30 game split, and in those 30 starts Talbot stillbwins more games than Koskinen.

Good thing we can scout so well. Would hate to know that someone who played minor hockey in our backyard was about to become a star in the NHL *cough* Hart, *cough* Parayko.

But Brandon Manning.. f*** you, Chiarelli!

 

[McTedi]

Detroit and LA coaches are showing their players our game tape. No one can suck as good as we do.

No one can go into full tank mode like us. Hughes should pull a Lindros and refuse to come here after we draft him.

Who would have guessed the Hitchcock hiring would turn into the Pat Quinn (RIP) hiring 2.0

This one?:

“There were a lot of defencemen in Edmonton already and I thought they might want to bring in another forward (trade) but I’m not the one making the decisions.”

 

[Roof Daddy]

Unfortunately, all I could think of while reading your post was this:

Actually pretty apropo when discussing this team.

Fitting there’s 3 people in the Hotdog water (McDavid, Drai and Nuge).

 

[CycloneSweep]

We should jointly cheer for another team for the rest of the year.

 

[GodPucker]

Not even a praise for Puljujarvi? This must be a low point

Did he play tonight or was he scratched?

 

[Soliloquy of a Dogge]

I wish I was a billionaire. I'd buy the Oilers and install @Cloned as GM. As long as he promises to never trade Nurse.

Oilers made me tired as f***. Now I have to sleep this disgrace away.

 

[Beerfish]

Talbots game is more garbage than good, the outlier was his one good year. Most of his time here has been terrible. I have zero fear he will be any good anywhere else.

Too bad koskinen is not all that much better. We are stuck with him however.

That one and also talking about walking on eggshells here because of the OEG. McAsuno posted it last page. Sounds like a shit place to play.

 

[rboomercat90]

Could really use a skill guy like Cags

Or a guy who busted his ass on every shift. We seem to be in short supply of those.

 

[NeverForget06]

But Brandon Manning.. **** you, Chiarelli!

Can't even crack the lineup lol. Cagguila is on their first line

I never heard that one. Will have to find the post.

 

[mintmint]

I want McDavid to pull an Anthony Davis right now.

 

[XXIV97]

Man, we are really good at being bad.

 

[Cloned]

I agree.

Petition Rogers to start televising Bakersfield games.

Apparently they still thought Cagiulla was on the team with how open they left him.

But it’s goaltending right? Right?

I’d have stormed off the bench too after the Nurse 5-hole goal. Terrible gap control... big ass and school girl legs in my face. Talbot has to look through three windows to find that puck. At least I can get my beer league buddies to close their legs a bit when the wind up comes.

He also screen Talbot on the first goal, which I’m sure was not forgotten.

Koskinen is probably going through the same frustration... these guys don’t know wtf they are doing and it has already destroyed Talbot and will destroy Kosko before he even knows himself what he is in this league.

 

[McTedi]

Constant blender this year, Cags had his moments but consistency was a problem at times.

 

[Cloned]

I bought her that jersey, so **** that hahaha. I'll surely throw all 4 of mine in with a Bobby Nicks Burger as a +. To hell with this franchise.

Sacrifices have to be made.
