The guy flat out PUNISHES the opposition, sure he doesn't have much talent, but hey ya can't have everything!
It's too bad he's not a lefty with Edler out.
Can the Canucks just win a Cup within the next 5 years.

Can't be worse than Pouliot.

So just like Guds?


I jest - Pooliot has been making Guds look like a Norris candidate lately. Seems like he can barely touch the puck without doing something wrong.

He can’t make a decision for the life of him

They really should try Pouliot as a forward as he can't defend well, I mean they did have Biega play forward a few times when injuries hit last year.

That doesn't seem like a bad idea. Put Breezebwa in to see what he can do.

Who do you take out to put Poo in at forward?

Green probably likes being an NHL coach. Don't see it happening. Just put him in the pressbox.

The Oilers are quite putrid. How is it humanly possible? Connor “McJesus” can’t even save this gong show. But hey - Tanking - the only way to fly!

The seemingly inevitable fact the Oilers will tanking for Hughes? No! Ridiculous! Cannot be allowed!
There needs to be a mismanagement clause applied to the lottery that takes away their balls.
Oh, and you better believe I could come up with a wonderful pictorial but, the children, ya know...

Would you trade Pettersson for McDavid? I’d have to think about that one. I’m certainly not going - “in a heartbeat!”

Jimbro is a genius. Everyone was pissed he didn’t draft Glass.

Some of my pals in Deadmonton think McJesus has 100% bought into the play, get paid, party philosophy that has been prevalent in the organization since the 1980s. Sure he is fast and talented but I'd keep Petey.

They were?

I think you may have been pissed drunk

Not sure why everyone has to blame McDavid for the clown show in Edmonton. He’s still the lesgue’s best player. He didn’t make the bad trades and stupid signings.

One thing I find alarming about McDavid though is how much he looks to have aged. He looks like he’s 30 years old for fuck sakes.

McDavid is the human highlight reel, a one man show and most likely the most challenging linemate to play with.

The disastrous situation in Edmonton only proves that continued lottery pick tanking is no recipe for success.

4- 1st overall picks
1- 3rd overall pick
1- 4th overall pick
1- 7th overall pick
2- 10th overall picks (Pajaarvi, Bouchard)

In the last 10 drafts dating back to 2009
