Out of Town Thread - Part XI

[Per Sjoblom]

Just because they said that they will probably plummet.

 

[Kriss E]

Their best GM in the past 2 decades? Kevin Lowe.

Ouch.
Imagine the Islanders saying Milbury was their best GM...rough rough rough.

 

[Positive Vibes]

Oilers just suck...no other word to describe them. They have gathered (outside of the obvious 2) the worst core of hockey senseless players. Chiarelli gives Milbury a run for his money. What a mess

as a oilers fan aswell, pretty depressing to watch them play

Living in Edmonton, I've tried to be a fan, even at the beginning of this year I was excited to tune in just to watch Connor.

Now I don't even want to hear about the oilers. Chiarelli has embarrassed this city more than Lowe or Tambo ever did. It's a real shame

 

[OldCraig71]

Geez, Skinner with his 35th and 36th goals of the season. He's going to get close to 50 goals.

Jeff Skinner is going to get paid a ridiculous amount of money in free agency.

 

[Tyson]

Some pro athletes just have no ****ing idea what they represent to people. Some others do. Good job Mitch.

Class act that Marner kid

 

[SirClintonPortis]

What's going on -- it's like a traveling circus.

Maybe they're hoping to meet Tavares and rub salt in his wounds.

that's the cutest damn thing

 

[Tuggy]

Sabres losing late in the 3rd.

 

[Frank Drebin]

I know the huge names are panarin, stone, karlsson, but how would you guys feel about Skinner? Say at 8.5.

Always been a big fan of Skinner and if we weren't rebuilding/retooling or whatever Bergevin had going on this summer, I would have been all over him.

He got traded for such a low price that it would have been a bargain for Bergevin.

 

[Grate n Colorful Oz]

That can be said about any city, I think.

HF brings out the fanatics.

HF is an escape valve for the hockey obsessed

 

[David Suzuki]

Have to feel for Sabres fans. Yikes.

One less opponent to be scared about.

On the other hand, Carolina is making a great push upwards towards a Playoffs spot. That's the team I am most scared about.

Wouldn't be scared of them but they are a fine team.

 

[MarkovsKnee]

With the likely win tonight, Carolina moves 1 pt back of Pittsburgh and 3 pts back of Montreal and Columbus. Pens and Habs hold a game in hand. Columbus 2 games.

We've gone 6-2-2 in our last 10 yet we've lost ground to Bruins/Leafs and have the Canes catching up. Crazy.

The OT loss vs the Leafs last weekend will hurt us for long.

You may have to look at Philly at some point, 8-1-1 in the last 10. (14-9-3 with the new coach)

Philly have two good young goalies. Yeah. They are very dangerous too. They remind me the Ottawa Sens of few years ago with the Hamburglar in net.

It’s cute. I dont think this has something to do with athletism though.

Bieber’s or one direction’s fans could react way worst.

Its cute though

Flyers traded Stolarz for Talbot tonite.

Only if they remember to retrieve it from the arena where it's stored and bring it to where games are actually being played.

Edmonton..has a way of crushing souls for sure....

Remember Oilers Devin Dubnyk? He came to Montreal he was ready to quit hockey....goes to the Wild has a career....278 starts with Wild...921sv% 2.32 gga....
Oilers still looking for a goalie.....

Talbot will be the same..he just needed out of the soul crusher called Edmonton..although Philly hasnt been kind to goalies..lol.......

Even look at former Oilers goalie Laurent Brossoit who left Edmonton...
with the Oilers 897 sv%....with the Jets he got a 934sv% ...10W-3L-1


Oilers a toxic team.. so sad to see it like that for so so long.

I know the huge names are panarin, stone, karlsson, but how would you guys feel about Skinner? Say at 8.5.

If we cant get any of the big 4, I would go for him.
Although 8.5 mil for a guy whos been mostly a 50 pt player in his career is very risky
