Kris Russell with a filthy snipe

[ChaoticOrange]

How would you feel as an Oilers fan after tonight?

I'd feel that our GM built a team to compete for a Cup in the 2011-2012 season and thus far has failed to adapt to the modern speed game, that for whatever reason our coach is not getting this team ready to play right out of the gate, that we desperately need Larsson, Sekera, and Talbot back, and that despite injuries and bad luck we gave a very good team everything they could handle.

 

[ChaoticOrange]

Lol, tied for 1st in the league in wins, I think we're good.

You might be good, but I think Nazem needs the bathroom and a change of hockey pants, judging by that photo.

 

[Cup or Bust]

How would you feel as an Oilers fan after tonight?

I thought the Leafs were a better team then they looked tonight. So I see no cups any time soon for them either. They are terrible defensively.

 

[Critical13]

Hard to be too satisfied this win after such a bizarre lucky ending , Oilers deserved a better fate.....but their fans don't.

Oilers played 1 decent period and relied on their 4th line for their offence. They didn’t deserve anything IMO. Broissant kept them in this game.

whatever makes you sleep better at night man.

So, this isn’t about the Russell goal really, it’s just another thread Lead fans are using to troll Oiler fans. I guess the Oiler GDT and PGT weren’t enough?

Yeah, it had absolutely nothing to do with the "Laughs vs Oil" PGT title that one of your fellow Oiler fans posted. I guess you can say that.....we got the last Laugh. (puts on shades)


YEEEEEAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!!

It's like 1230AM Toronto time and it's a school night. I blame the parents.

I don't really care that that was their thread title. But to start moaning about getting "trolled" when they shot first is just sad. Of course some jabs would go their way.

Powerplay goals definitely count, but the Leafs were outplayed at evens by a team down two top four defencemen and a long way down the standings. If I were a Leafs fan (spits) I'd be more worried than hopeful after tonight.

It's a shame Oilers fans have to come up with these excuses....we won many a game without Matthews this year.

 

[OccasionalPoster]

Always finding creative and fun ways to embarrass. After I grew numb to the losses, I learned I was more so a hockey fan than an Oilers fan. With that in mind, I can comfortably watch the Oilers and appreciate them for what they are - a joke of a franchise.

 

[Mitts]

Oilers last decade encapsulated with a single shot, an ode to Steve Smith, makes me weepy.

Excuses? It took Russell LITERALLY SHOOTING THE PUCK INTO HIS OWN NET for Toronto to beat Edmonton - after blowing 2-0, 3-1, and 4-3 leads.

Plan the parade, kids!

I swear schools don't start early enough in Ontario.

Who's to say we wouldn't have won the game later? You forget the Leafs beat the Oilers twice last year to? I know you Oilers fans would have loved to gloat tonight but alas the hockey gods made you eat it.

Actually, it would of gone into overtime with no decisive winner in regulation. Nice try.

Ps: I refrained from making a city of Edmonton joke because well...its would be too damn easy.

 

[Wo Yorfat]

The most incredible part of this play is watching the highlight actually made Kadri likeable for a second. Dude's like wtf is this clown doing.

 

[MapleLeafistan]

It's just funny. Like team threads are generally supposed to be off limits, even Flames and Canucks fans don't act like that

Ok

It's like 1230AM Toronto time and it's a school night. I blame the parents.

Its 9:30pm here. You're dealing with Canada's Team. Not all of us live in Ontario.

 

[leaffaninvancouver]

Not a single other fan base pulls the garbage yours did tonight. Not one.

I guess that’s something to be proud of.

Of course they do, no fan base is really that better or worse. They all have a mix of insightful posters, funny posters, idiotic posters and trolls, the only difference is here you have a larger Leaf presence.

Nah, we hate Calgary way more. To
The average Oiler fan Toronto is pretty irrelevant. I actually like watching the Leafs play, it's an exciting brand of hockey. Pond hockey doesnt win Cups tho.

 

[LemonSauceD]

I rarely post, if at all, but man that was hilarious. In the famous words of Matt Murray, sometimes, you just gotta laugh.

 

[Deen]

Edmonton should have signed Engelland.

 

[Zirakzigil]

Obviously Russell supports the tank! No idea what he was trying to do there.

 

[MapleLeafistan]

630 CHED is gold right now...caller having a major meltdown.

 

[ChaoticOrange]

Ok

Canada's team? Oh my sweet summer child.

Even on a proportional level that doesn't explain it.

Anyways, it was a great game. Brutal way to end it but great game nonetheless.

That’s a load of garbage.

This wasn’t one or two wayward fans.
