Agreed, playing meaningful games in march was the goal, we accomplished that and more, the rest is pure gravy!!! Go oil!!!

This is a much better season than last year's. 2 Canadian teams to cheer for in the second round and they are both 2-0! An Ottawa-Edmonton cup final would be great for Canada's 150 but I doubt Bettman would allow it.

They just mentioned on SportsNet that Vegas has the Oilers as favourites to win the Stanley Cup.

Are you suggesting that Bettman has the authority to tell a franchise team to throw a series ? I don't think so.

Along the same train of thought I saw a toilet paper dispenser last week with the following written on it.
"Instant Flames Fans pictures. Wipe to develop."

Serves them right for standing pat on mediocre and not doing a proper rebuild.
No rewards for finishing 9 - 12th. and lowering your odds of getting one.

Why would an Alberta resident not cheer on an Alberta team and then a Canadian team should it not come to fruition. That concept just don't add up. Whatever....Let's Go OILERS.

I wanted to cheer for the other Alberta team as I get what your saying, but I can't do it. Soon as that puck hits the ice it changes. I have been for the Flames ever since they came from Atlanta, watched them play in the Coral. Since the 80's I have gone against the Oilers and I can't all of a sudden hope they do well. Fan base being Obnoxious doesn't help so the BOA is alive and well.. Go Nashville and Pittsburgh.

One more goal... Talbots out.
Ducks got a good coach. They've looked at some tape.
Go figure.
Let's see what our response will be.
3-0!
