SOLI'S SHORTSIDE
  • Talbot is starting back-to-back nights. Montoya apparently suffered an injury a day or two ago and can't go, so Brossoit was called up on emergency basis to backup. Brossoit is coming off his own set of back-to-back nights having started Friday and Saturday night.

  • More McPoints please.

  • Let's play the corrupted wish game... details in the next post.

This game may have a couple names. The Monkeys Paw, the corrupted wish game, whatever you wish to call it, the game goes as such.

- Poster A makes a wish.
- Poster B grants Poster A's wish, with a twist. Poster B make a new wish.
- Poster D grants Poster B's wish, with a twist. Poster D makes a new wish.
- and so on.

But Soli, where was Poster C? Well maybe Poster C didn't want to play my stupid game and wanted to talk about the Oilers or something else without a cynical spin. Fair enough. :D

For example:

"I wish Connor McDavid wins the Art Ross this season"

"Granted. But McDavid assisted on Rattie's 12 goals in the remaining games and now Rattie wants $3M a year."

"I wish the beer selection at Rogers was expanded"

"Granted. But they raised the price across the board by a $1 and you're not sure Kevin Lowe's Koolaid IPA or MacT's Bathtub Pilsner compliment your palate"

I think some of us will find that this isn't much of a departure from our own posting styles, but lets see what we can come up with. ;)

I wish the start time wasn't so late for a Sunday game.

Granted. But now it's an afternoon game, and we never win those.

I wish we hammer the ducks tonight.

Granted. But now you have to face protests outside your house from PETA.

I wish Kesler face plants into the crossbar and has to have his nose amputated tonight.

Granted, but you have to watch the Canucks win the draft lottery along with the Sens/Habs.

I wish the Knights would win the Cup this year.

What does that have to do with Kesler's nose? Haha

Granted. But Las Vegas turns into a hockey mecca. They freeze all the pools and turn them into ice rinks. The girls all wear baggy hockey jerseys. The NFL Raiders pull out and the gambling industry crumbles and falls to the likes of Draft Kings and daily fantasy apps. The casinos are turned into hockey academies and instead of booze they serve gatorade and biosteel pink. Thanks for ruining Vegas.

I wish the Penguins would just win this game vs. the Flyers already.

Granted. But Chiarelli will trade one Finn to another. Pulju goes to Philadelphia and Edmonton will have Lehterä.

Wish Lucic finds his mojo again.

Granted. Chiarelli trades RNH for Marcus Johansson (his nickname is Mojo). Nuge is reunited with Hall.

Wish the Caps win the cup this year.

Kesler will be on McDavid like a cheap suit. Getzlaf, Perry and Bieska will annoy me by just looking at them. Want McPoints and to ruin the Ducks chances at the post season.

Getzlaf missed the Ducks last game with the flu so maybe he's a bit sluggish out there. I hope McDavid gets matched against him instead of Kesler. Someone should send Todd a memo about having last change tonight.

Who cares. The only thing that matters is McDavid gets points and lots of them

Another team I want to see our team beat. Can't wait to see their f***ing team do whatever they please with the officials kissing their asses. To hell with the ducks.

Just a friendly reminder.

McDavid assists total: 59

Matthews points total: 52

McDavid has matched Matthews in ES goals over the last 2 years as well.

But, something something Hyman, something something ice time, something something injuries. Whatever, Matthews rules the world.

Granted. Gary Bettman awards the Stanley Cup to the hats that were made for the Cup champion.

I wish Nuge could actually grow a playoff beard.

Something something McDavid secondary assists, something something faceoffs, something something Matthews better puck retrieval (whatever that's supposed to mean)
The kool aid that comes out of TSN/Sportsnet and Leaf fans regarding precious Matthews just fills up their crap hole even further.

Granted. But his new beard has added such animal magnetism and sexual prowess to his persona that Nurse's sister is taken with him and Leon out of jealousy acts rashly and.... shaves Nuge's beard in the middles of the night.

I wish Ethan Bear would score his first goal tonight.
