Series Thread: First Round - Edmonton Oilers vs. Winnipeg Jets

[Bloody Brian Burke]

Did you guys have the Acadian down there?

The Acadian was like the Parisienne, a nameplate specific to the Canadian market.

We used to get special cars, now I can't even buy the Regal X here

And who else is glad an Oilers thread is hijacked with Car talk?

Not just car talk, crappy Malaise-era car talk. Very fitting as that was the last time the Oilers were watchable.

Well, it is appropriate, the Oilers looked like they were stuck in neutral last night.

Tell me about it, last leg of a 52/1 8 team parlay. You think I would have learned by now. Lol

Pretty much sums up the Oilers:

The peak of the era (error):

Built a Caddy on the Cavalier platform. Or as we called them "Caddyliers". And yes, I knew at least 4 families that had them.

Doesn’t everybody play to win, Elliotte?

Sometimes it's place, my friend.

Doyle Lonnegan : I put it all on Lucky Dan; half a million dollars to win.
Kid Twist : To win? I said *place*! "Place it on Lucky D-" That horse is gonna run second!
Doyle Lonnegan : [There is a pause, and Lonnegan runs horrified to the betting booth] There's been a mistake! Gimme my money back!

Jets are all over the Oilers thus far tonight. It could easily be 3-0 Jets, but it remains scoreless thanks to Mike Smith.

I’m watching this game, but not watching. My screen is black, but I have audio. Might be time for a new TV.

Jets on pace for 51 shots on goal this game. That's.....a lot of shots.

My goodness, that was an embarrassing intermission segment for a national broadcast in Canada. All the whining about the Oilers not getting calls, the reason they're not getting calls is because they're being dominated by the Jets. Cassie Campbell-Pascall might as well get an Oilers logo tramp stamp.

Jonathan Willis (an Oilers fan but also very level-headed) gets it.

That's actually spot on - all Oilers fans seem to be like that. They should invite Ryan Kelser on the panel next game just to troll them.

Superline! Superline!! Superline!

Smith plays the puck outside the trapezoid and no call. Those refs are sure in the Jets pockets.

McDavid and Draisaitl pointless through 100 minutes of hockey.

The US feed keeps using that term.....

What was wrong with the Stanley hit on Bear?
