My tiny consolation prize as a Canucks fan is that Winnipeg (Laine), Columbus (PLD) and Edmonton (Puljujarvi) probably all deeply regret not snapping up Tkachuk as well.
At least Winnipeg managed to eventually get some assets out of Laine.
Fuck Danny and Terry's Buffalo Chicken Wings. Fuck all the old wood in here. Fuck the moon, fuck corn on the cob, fuck squirrels. Fuck me, fuck you, fuck everything!
Best part of their loss. I am going to a wedding in Red Deer this summer and I was horrified at the possibility of them winning in 7. The circlejerk would have made me want to end myself.
Is there a team in the league who deserves to win the cup right now LESS than the oilers?
Had Gretzky, now have mcd. Coach has been in the league for 5 minutes. 4 of 5 first overall picks, league pulls up the ladder right behind them. Have already won a handful of cups and had all time dynasty.
The fact that mcd and Draisaitl almost drug them to victory despite the mismanagement of their roster is really something
Tkachuk shouting out Calgary fans.
Luongo shouting out Vancouver.
Maurice shouting out the Jets.
Really, who was Canada's team?
