Nope our crappy team is... outside of about 5-6 players this team is just awful right now.

Would love to make the playoffs this year but with possibly three important players missing time and fairly weak defence I don't expect it. With that said, it's a short year and we could be highly rewarded...

The thing with that rule is, it depends on the color of the players' jersey.

I mean, we can't even ****ing dump and chase anymore, we look slow and uninterested.
Let's ask Gary Oldman who in the front office should be fired.

Beside Duchene we got nothing up front... PAP wondering why he signed here.... he got nobody to pass the puck to

LOL at McNabb saying that was a much much better period all over the ice
as if the bar could have been any lower

I'm not convinced we're icing an NHL hockey team these past two games.
This has been the most demoralizing five periods of hockey I've watched in quite some time. Literally have not even gotten a legitimate scoring chance.

Only Mark Rycroft has ever been real about the way the Avs have played.

One things for sure, the Avs need defence capable of making an outlet pass and getting the puck moving in the other direction. I feel bad for Duchene, the guy wants to win so badly but he literally never gets opportunities, they are always hemmed in their own zone.

I don't think anyone has blamed the refs for this. It's quite obvious we're playing like a pile of poop.
But I also think complaining about phantom calls is totally in line.

I'm glad I've got the Oilers feed so I don't have to listen to that optimism propaganda

Good night folks. Looking forward to the wake up tomorrow too see how many more goals the Oilers can find in the 3rd.

Gonna guess a 5-0 final.

Drouin - Duchene - Landeskog that's what Ill be hoping to dream about tonight.
