The Out of Town Thread part XLVII All talk from around the league here

[Marc the Habs Fan]

Oilers win! Nice comeback for them.

If they finish in the bottom 5 again this year there should be a criminal investigation.

Have a feeling the Canucks are going to be one of the more disappointing teams this year. Probably still going to win that mediocre division though.

Well Yakupov was pretty invisible tonight, but that's how it goes.

Edmonton are going to be dominant offensively this year. It's just question of keeping pucks out of their own net. Did a good job tonight though.

Hossa is a beast.

[Talks to Goalposts]

Nice for Bolland to get to play 2nd line. He's a terrific player, they've leaned on him hard in Chi.

Smith just smashed his stick against the goalpost after the Hawks just scored a goal.. I wouldn't mind if the NHL gave players that smash their sticks a 2 minute penalty for acting like an idiot.

2 min unsportsmanlike conduct wouldn't be bad IMO

I also hate when guys do it

I agree.. It as no place in the game.

Luongos body language looks awful, the guy is questioning everything. Zero confidence at all, I wouldn't be suprised to see him go downhill fast. Vancouver is destroying that guy.

But he never got 50 points in a defensive role, so he must have no hockey sense.

i didn't see that.

looked solid all night against the arguably superior oilers. messed up on eberle's goal. but then again, that's what ebs does: scores on insane angles. looking at bobby lu's positioning was probably anticipating a cross crease pass.

hemsky's goal was rather weak but again, it was a perfect snipe.

Well, if spraying snow on a goalie or touching the puck with your hand on a face-off is worthy of a penalty, than so is smashing your stick. I wouldn't mind.

[Kenny Powders]

Yakupov was invisible last night. Whats up with those 2 busts in the first 3 picks!! And the other one is made of glass!!!! Busttttt omg fire everyoneeree hurr durrr

[hototogisu]

Remember how mad this board was when we didn't sign Anthony Stewart a couple of years ago? That was funny.

Anyway he's on waivers today.

[Andy]

I know it's too early to tell, but I've never been impressed with Yakupov's game every time I see him play. Doesn't mean that I think he'll bust...but he just doesn't wow me.

Vandermeer is also on waivers. Who ever liked size and toughness....well today's waiver players will give them a chubby.

Rebound Rask has a good ring to it.

That is something that hasn't been said in a long time.

Vancouver looked like they were getting scoring chances at will, there is no way the oilers looked better. Sure vancouver lost but look at the oilers defence!

Luongo let in two soft goals and was a basket case against one of the worst teams in the league

[overlords]

Oh my, Ladd. What are you doing?

[sheed36]

Lots of hitting and energy in the Bruins/Jets game.. Quite entertaining.

Took me a long time to realize there were games today and you weren't just drunk posting.

Same with me.. Had no idea there were early games on until I read his posts.

You should know by now that I only text you when I'm drunk.
