Pre-Game Talk: The time hast [email protected] | Wednesday @ 8pm

I saw that Florida's 2 teams will allow fans, so 4 altogether so far.

 

So basically the teams that are typically in insolvency conversations.

I'd love to see the stats for COVID levels in these areas.

 

So the Panthers are allowed to have a full barn? Doesn't seem fair. :/

 

That would take some time. Perhaps the Dallas, Phoenix, Tampa and Miami health regions would have the stats online.

 

Hey, they had to give some tickets away with pizza to get to that 5K. stop picking on em....

heh But NHL being NHL. I mean it don't effect us in the Canadian division at all but for the US clubs some of them get home support advantage, most of them get none of that. Its strange, and seems based on much of nothing in terms of infection rates.

 

All the Brady Sluders "umma gonna get Covid" already did...

now they figure they're all set. Plus if you drink enough beer at games you hardly get covid bad. They proved that in Ireland pubs. pffft.

I'm jk about all of this just as disclaimer.

 

The reason I asked about crowds isn't about Covid. It's about the political slant the NHL pulled in the playoffs, when they sent a big FU to the fans. I'm going to see if it gets pulled again at any rinks that have crowds and watch the fan's reaction.

 

???????

 

Time to ram those predictions where the sun don't shine for all of those clowns.

 

Please elaborate.

Fans weren't allowed in buildings, the NHL pulled no political slant about anything. They sent a big "heres some hockey for you guys to watch during these terrible times" though.

Don't see the reason to complain about that.

 

The only political thing I can think of was the BLM demonstration. That said, that is getting way too far OT so if you guys want to talk politics do it via private messaging.

 

Absolutely. I get your message. Maybe only certain fans will be allowed, heh. Answer these questions 3. (Monty Python)

1) Will you boo!

2 and 3 don't count. Neither does our opinion as fans it seems.

Whoops @Bryanbryoil , I posted the reply at the same time, but only in a humorous sort of way..

 

Why? Its such a low sample size.

When the Oilers were routinely last in the league we cleaned house in Canadian matchups. IDK. I dont think it means a whole lot.

 

TOAST THEM BOYOS!

LET'S f***ING GO YOU f***S!

f*** I'M EXCITED!

 

GDT: - Around the League 2019-20 v24

Start at page 1. And, as respect to @Bryanbryoil, I won't respond further as it was covered already.

 

It's going to be such a weird season that I dont think anything means a lot

 

Didn’t think this day would ever come.

 

For some reason I’m picturing Rafael Palmeiro right now.

 

Is there anybody in the national media that hates the Oilers more than Button does? Most of them do but Button takes it to another level.

 

Oh boy oh boy oh boy oh boy. Cant wait for some wonderful distracting hockey to be back. Looking forward to many things this year. I think we’re quite a bit better team overall. Jesse P is a total wildcard and could be serious found money. Can our PP even be better? I also think McDavid is hitting that primetime and will dominate this year. Look forward to the 100 point watch!

 

Thats actually the most probable scenario. Like it or not. Though after Toronto, and infront of Ottawa, the division is really close.

 

well said.
Those 2 fellas seem to be critics of everything.

 

Is he pointing with his left hand?

 

It does mean something because they are playing ONLY Canadian teams this season but as I pointed out in a previous post, their record against Canadian teams was much better in 2020 when the team was much different so it's not a big worry IMO.
