GDT: Oilers vs Canucks - Final Rexall Game

[Oscar Acosta]

How does he even show his face in public? I know he's delusional but he has to know everyone hates him in the building. Hope the fans let him have it if they announce his name.

 

[McPuritania]

Nonsense

Eberle's a bum.

 

[Raab]

Huh? Because of Rexall...really

You lose something from the game when you go to the new buildings. For me it's that nostalgia you get going to the old buildings.

Man.. ghost letting his team down on that game

Everytime I see Ghost play he is... Very visible.

Everyone always raves about him, but i just see Justin Schultz. He must be pretty good, scores a ton... just... I've never seen him do it.

meh... I hope not... not the time for the shananigans.. Let the old man get the respect he earned as a player and for a short period as a coach

 

[Raab]

No kidding and they kept on saying Mark Smith. You figured somebody would have picked up on the mistake.

Anyway, what a treat to hear Bob Cole call this game, really gave that nostalgic feel.

So no feed for the post game ceremony? That's pretty freaking lame.

It's 30 minutes later, they're letting the players change. Should be back on if your watching sportsnet west.

 

[Logical McNonsense]

Oesterle with almost 28 minutes played tonight.

Jesus

 

[McMozesmadness]

Good on the boys for winning this one. I was really scared to see the reaction around here had we lost tonight.

Also it was great to hear Bob Cole. I wouldn't want him to call every game but the 3 or 4 games a year he does call are treats.

Nothing has changed for me tbh, and I hope they don't fool the rest of you guys. This team is absolutely broken, and still needs big changes.

I noticed Kevin Lowe was listed on the alumni list but MacTavish wasn't. Is the latter smart enough not to appear?

 

[A91]

Anyone else notice the high abundance of Eberle chances without coming close to a goal? Mainly McDavid passes to a wide open net?

Yep. Ebs has benefitted a lot from being the only RHS in our top6 this season, another skilled guy would have made him sweat for that position on our pp.

MacTavish tried to show up, but he went to the Saddledome by mistake.

 

[Raab]

Anyone know if they brought back Rod to call the game on the radio?

I'm out of market so no soup for me.

 

[Perfect_Drug]

MacT was there through skype.

 

[Wreckus]

[Mr Positive]

EDIT: blap! beaten too it

 

[McTedi]

Eberle's a bum.

If you say so, probably one of the few pure goal scorers on the team but whatevs

Bingo. The canucks are a brutal team and their effort level tonight was atrocious. their goalie was bad too.

Everyone knows the team sucks and needs changes. Enjoy the win and the night for what it is. No need to be a grinch.

Sometimes, when he decides to show up. But he's also as elite on the defensive side of the puck as Eric Belanger is on the offensive side of the puck.

Yah probably would have scored 30 again if healthy but yah I'm sure you're right.

I agree, I think everyone does, but... the crazy over-reactions that would've happened would be unbearable. This week someone mentioned trading Hall to New Jersey for Severson and Quenville. I mean that **** is just ridiculous.

I did enjoy it as much as I could. I also won't pretend they aren't the team we know they are. I know people don't like it when you aren't super stoked after a win, but it is what it is.
