Hockey Trash Talk & BS thread

Game, set, and match NHL .

That whole debacle and the effort to make things right in the face of a public relations diaster will live on in peoples minds for a long time.

 

I suppose not much to complain about, as an Oilers fan (for now). They seem to be 'in it' for the most part, in most games. And that compete level is all I've ever hoped for.
Even this second game, of a back-to-back, looking somewhat tired, they're doing not bad. Gustavsson - who's sat the longest of all backups - is definitely keeping them in this one.

 

Was only a matter of time till they turned it around. I still think they are a borderline playoff team this year but their whole roster is only getting better.

 

It really seems that solid goaltending is saving their bacon. Which is allowing them to play a bit better as a team - that's for sure.

 

That and Larsson is one of the most under rated players in the league. So hard to find a #1 RD who can play against top lines

 

I'm still a little grumpy about losing Hall. But I am slowly warming up to Larsson. Russell has been one of the better pick-ups, in my mind. Even though he's been out with an injury the past couple games.

 

I had no idea about Hall I just knew what I read and everyone said he was good. But its hard to build a line with a player like him on the wing. He rushes the puck and goes 150 mph. Ideally you think the centre should be doing what he was doing. I always think you need your best player a centre to do everything, not just a scoring winger. He has to go for sure if they wanted Larsson, hes a beast

 

Like I said. I'm slowly coming around. lol

I'll take wins, over players.....any day.

 

It's boggled my mind that Russell took that long to sign a contract. He was always good in Calgary as long as he played second pairing minutes. He must of started off with some crazy demands.

 

Well, if he keeps it up the way he's played......I'm willing to spend a lot of Katz's dough. He can have Lucic's dump-truck of money. Because that plug isn't earning it.

 

Fantastic. I was pumped.

 

So. Does any of our Canadian friends know if you can get a made in Canada authentic jersey up there vs the Indonesian ones we get here?

 

Dunno where they get them from - but the Authentic ones at Jersey City are the same ones the Pros use.

 

Will an authentic pro Jersey make me an even better bestest fan?

 

Your "Wahh" will count for double points.

 

Is Jersey city a store in Canada? How much?

 

Does this link work?

https://www.lids.ca/edmonton-oilers-reebok-nhl-mens-authentic-jersey/20602121

 

$330 Canadian. So that's like $17.99 US

 

It works....but there aren't any authentic options for the ducks!
