Pre-Game Talk: Oilers vs Ducks. Our chance for revenge on Eakins.

[Cloned]

You have to respect the stache, but Archi needs to get rid of it as soon as he can.

That thing adds about 30 years to him haha.

It's aight. It makes him look like that actor on Criminal Minds.

When the ducks come to Edmonton, can someone throw donuts at Eakins or on the ice ?

Terry Jones is on it

 

[Tad Mikowsky]

nah, i just don't think he's that good. i think if he plays according to his actual skill he'd be a useful player. his skill is not that great but he thinks it is. i think finding a team that wants him will be harder than people think. ive heard from certain people in the game that there are players and coaches that would never want hall on their team.

Blah blah blah, Hall bad, blah blah blah culture.

 

[McDNicks17]

Terry Jones is on it

You think he'll actually waste some donuts?

 

[guymez]

To be honest I harbor no ill will towards Todd McLellan, Dallas Eakins, Ralph Krueger, etc.

They were all put into very tough situations and while Eakins could be a bit pompous, I respected how he handled the jersey toss situation and did things like no one walks on the logo in the dressing room.

They're all good people from what I gathered.

Wow...I completely agree with you here.

Touché

They have tons of donuts in Studio 99 you can take with you to the seats after you eat. Man if I was without donut range he’d get one right in the head.

Hey I am ok, i just drink to forget. My grandfather drink to forget the great war. My dad drink to escape his mind. I drink to escape women.

I drink to escape the Oilers.

Beautiful.

Wow...I completely agree with you here.

Eakins was a pestilence to this team and I want revenge on his pompous arrogant swarming arse. Meanwhile I am rather shocked that you and @Soundwave agree on something! Hell hath indeed frozen over!

Still the Flames...they will still suck when Eakins is long forgotten

True

Very wise

I'd rather throw chopped wood and buckets of water.

 

[RegDunlop]

Wood would be ok

He'd go ballistic with the water though

So is Ganger going to dress tomorrow? I really didn't want have rat boy all the way to the end....feels like failure

I would guess the same lineup. They did ok. Mind you if Nygard is back Russell might be taking a seat.

I am becoming desensitized to Tkachuk’s face.
Now he has no power over me

 

[ZJuice]

Without Eakins we don’t have McDavid

 

[5 Mins 4 Ftg]

Without Eakins we don’t have McDavid

Small miracles.​

 

[rboomercat90]

The OP forgot one of the best Eakins head shaking moments in his rant. Eakins, the analytics wizard of the NHL, needed to get Tyler Dellow to explain the system to his players because he understood it better. Complete fraud from the day he was hired until the day he was fired.
