After watching rexalls farewell I realized how many different generations of oiler fans there are. Ranging from the Gretzkys, to weights, smyth, hemsky, ganger/cog/prv ,hall/eb/nuge to mcdavid/drai/maybe Matthews.
Although we as oiler fans respect players from all generations I feel like we all gravitate towards one or two generation the most. For me it was from 1997-2007 a time when hockey was the only thing on my mind and nothing else in life mattered.
This era includes a mix of two generations ( the early and late smyth eras)
My fondest memories include;
- Marchant ot goal beating Dallas
-every decent player getting traded (cujo,weight,Guerin)
- fans waving "Belfour"
- outdoor game
- dvoraks end to end goal vs Dallas
-getting Chris pronger for nothing
- hemsky clinching our playoff birth
-hemsky eliminating Detroit
-Pisani playing like Jesus
-roloson robbing cheecho
-everything about the 2006 playoff run
- trading Chris pronger for nothing
-smyths hat trick
- smyth getting traded
What era do you gravitate to the most? And what are your fondest memories?
