K-I-C-K-A-S-S: That's the way I spell "success"

Just more McPoints please.

 

[Joey Moss]

Caggiula really has no business being on that 2nd line. Would prefer Slepyshev.

He's looked pretty good to my eye...

 

[Cloned]

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.

Granted, but he also scores two hat tricks tonight and Chia signs him to a 6 year, 36M dollar extension.

I wish @Soli had a better avatar.

I'm not sure how. He kills plays on that line all the time.

Maybe a Giant game by McDavid and the Oilers

Nice catch.

And let's hope so. I think he wants that Art Ross, so we can count on a Good, exciting game from him at the very least.

 

[VainGretzky]

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.

Matthews screwing up his back early in his career is going to have a big factor on his career , backs feel like they're healed than boom you bend over and boom right back to screwed . It has ruined mnay careers , Tiger woods after multiple surgeries is just now showing former glimpses of himself I doubt it last , it also destroyed Mike Weir career right in it's prime Bossy as well . And Lemieux missed tons of his career because of it. I have feeling Leaf fans will be very dissappointed next few years , but they do have Marner who will be a star on his own.

Granted. The neurosurgeons were able to fix the part of your brain that appreciates beauty. Unfortunately, they couldn't fix everything else wrong with you.

I wish McDavid wins the Rocket this season.

It's one of my favorite albums.

Cagguila has one fewer goal in his last 6 games than Anton Slepyshev has on the season.

I don't think very much of either player, but I can't blame them for going with Drake.

Nice, mine too. Listened to the shit out of it back in the day. Still listen to many Matt Good songs to this day.

I think Caggiula is perfectly fine as a 3rd of 4th liner. Slepy I expected more of. At this point I'd rather give his roster spot to Rattie, Aberg, etc. Plus Yamo probably makes the team next season, and we hopefully pick up another winger. Don't think Slepy has a future with this org, nor do I think he stays in NA much longer, unless he's willing to play in the AHL. But could see him just go home to Russia to play in the KHL. Just all speculation on my part, however. At the very least, it would be better to sign a speedy winger who can kill PPs in his spot. Slepy just doesn't have much utility.

 

[McFlash97]

May we please have at least 3 McPoints today, possibly 4 to get to 100..its my birthday and this would be a great present !

 

[booyakasha]

what does Slepyshev do though?
Caggiula has 12 goals, whil Slepyshev has 11 points.

 

[Oilers in NS]

I'll start things off for the game..

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

Where r u? 10:30 start here

Caggiula has always been given better minutes than Slepy. Slepy is more effective and has been good with Draisaitl in the past.

I can't count how many times I've seen Caggiula cause on off-side because he doesn't think quick enough. Slep makes the simple plays.

 

[guymez]

In terms of rivalries the Ducks have to be at the top of the list.
I mean its fun to beat the Flames but its much more satisfying to beat the Ducks.

Especially if McDavid can embarrass them.

He only ever makes the simple plays, and it's why he doesn't score at all. At least Caggiula takes a risk once in a while that results in some offence. I like the idea of Slepyshev, but he just doesn't bring enough.

 

[Gord]

All I want is Mcpoints

I want mcpoints but also a win. Still a slim chance to pass calgary in the standings

I disagree. I think Slepyshev is the better player in almost every part of the game other than hitting. A bigger threat to score.

I agree with this.
Slepyshev never does more than show flashes of what he could be. Cagguila may not have the natural ability like Slepyshev but he has a hell of a lot more try. He seems to want it more. That matters.

I like Slepyshev but his inconsistency (and lack of fire) will likely spell the end of his NHL career.

Granted. Kim Jong Un becomes such a fan of hockey, he awards McDavid with an actual rocket for being the best player (the highest form of appreciation in his mind). Trump labels Connor a potential terrorist threat and bans him from travel to the US. Connor now only plays a 50+ game season (still out scores Matthews).

I wish Kesler, Perry, Getzlaf, Bieksa and Manson all collide into each other on the same shift, knocking them all out.

Slepyshev is the same age as Caggiula. Far from not having a career in the NHL lol

You do realize that Sleyshev is/has been considering playing in the KHL...right?

Why struggle to be a bubble player in the NHL and make entry level money when you can play more minutes in an inferior League (in your home country) and make a lot more.
