Dabura 12,207 Report post Posted January 23, 2019 (edited) I almost feel like this win sends entirely the wrong message. "See? We can get outshot 30-4 in the 3rd and still win! It's like I've been telling you guys: if you turtle hard enough, good things happen!" Not complaining tho. F*** the Oilers and their stupid cat mascot. Player of the game: the guy in the Flames hat sitting behind the Oilers' bench. 3 minutes ago, puckloo39 said: Have a nice 'break', fellas!! See you guys next game! LGRW!!!! Right back atcha, loo!

I hope Jimmy gets a shutout and scores the game winning goal on Pekke Rinne with a clap bomb from his own zone, ala Goldberg. Julien BriseBois decides that Howard is obviously an upgrade over Vasilevskiy, and trade us Vasi, a 1st, Cal Foote and Taylor Raddysh for Howard... 1 MabusIncarnate reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
