NHL 2023-2024 season

On cue...

'ESPN’s latest future power rankings put the Edmonton Oilers at 20th in the league based on their roster, prospects, contracts, and management. The article says that while Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl get “massive amounts of respect and adulation,” everything else about the team is “seen as mid.” Sports writer Devon Hladunewich took issue with the ranking.'

^ underrated beats overrated - especially if it lights some fires in the bellies of Oiler players beyond the big 2.

Its ESPN...they don't know what washroom to use these days lol. They are MASSIVELY irrelevant.

This is some Hockey....Featuring...Danny Gallivan.

As a Kid I love watching The Canadians and Bruins beat up on each other.

But as a Kid before the Oilers.....

This was the best.

Just so you know they aren't talking about the product on the ice.

Roster: 3rd Place
Prospects: 29th Place
Cap: 19th Place
Bosses: 17th Place

^Classic. Danny Gallivan was the best - I just get chills hearing that voice.

Any idea how much Molson paid for Andlauer's Habs shares?

[Nicko999]

My only goal for the Habs should be to have a 70 pts player this season. That's it.

Has not happened since 18-19 (Max Domi, 72 pts). Also the only time it has happened in the last decade (before that was Plekanec with 70 pts in 09-10).

WOW huge news Jets resign both Scheif and Helly to 7 year $8.5 million extensions!

HERE TO STAY 😤

Mark Scheifele and Connor Hellebuyck have signed identical seven-year contract extensions with an average annual value of $8,500,000.

Jets have very bright future now with Perfetti, Colby Barlow and Rutger and now Schief and Helly locked up and JOMO back feels a lot better than last year.

Damn Good to see for the Jets and what future stability.

New season. New hope. Canucks finally pull it together. 3rd in the Pacific. Hughes gets the Norris.

After 31 games... we have no one pacing for 70 pts.

Also the ONLY team without a 10 goals scorer yet. Even the Sharks have one.

Hughes is either a puppet of Molson or a complete clown.

They doing what they do best... everything in their power to not get an impact player. League worst 6 regulation wins this season but we magically 8 wins have come from OT/shootout. Just good enough to take the team out of a lottery pick.

Thankfully NFL playoffs are approaching and tennis season is starting soon. The Habs are simply not worth the time.

Goal for the Habs has been achieved. Nick Suzuki with 71 pts this season so far. Also first player with at least 30g, 30a since Max Pacioretty in 2016-2017.

Only the 6th season by a Habs player in the last 25 years. Yes that's right don't laugh.

Hockey!

Connor V-2.0 looked small but good tonight with an apple.

His very quick, low, hard shot will be menacing once dialled in.

Agreed. I only watched about half the game. He didn't do too much from what I saw but that shot is a threat from anywhere. He's going to score a lot of goals on plays that dont look like they're going anywhere then he throws an unexpected laser at the net.

Tonight is day 1 of a cup run.

GO OILERS GO.
