Hi all!
You hockey fans and military types.
Now that the Stanley cup Finals are upon us, I think it is time for a fresh thread. What better topic to start with but tonites preformance by the Edmonton, or should I say, Canada Oilers.
What was Conclin thinking when he went behind the net with 6 minutes to go in the 3rd period and the score tied 4 to 4 !?! I know he is the Oilers back-up Goalie, and Roloson tried to stay on, but this mistake had nothing to do with his goal-tending abilities and everything to do with tactics.
Didn't McTavish tell him not to do that? I suppose not. If he had staued in front of the net, where a second-tier goal-tender in a THIRD PERIOD OF A STANLEY CUP FINALS GAME belongs, I might still be watching the game.
Roloson has a habit of playing possum (which got my team to be your team), so hopefully he is doing so now.
Other than that, I still think the Oilers have a chance at winning the cup, since it seems that during their week at the NY Rangers training facitily , they finally learnt how to play offensively.
They will definately need that since the Eastern Confrence oviously plays more physical hockey than what the Oliers are used to.

Hmmmmmmmmmm you sound like a bandwagon jumper to me...........no real Oiler fan would dump on one of the players like that.. Sigh..............that time of year I guess. "Lets cheer on Canada's last remaining team, it's the right thing to do................." Bah Humbug!!!!!!
GO LEAFS GO!!!!!!!!!!

Yep, I jumped on the bandwagon and i'm proud of it. I'm cheering for them because my husband can't be here to do it himself. Go OILERS (or whatever team I decide to get on board with whoooohoooo). So how are the Leafs doing this year, oh wait, where is that golf course they play on. >

You know what, until the Stanley Cup is decided, I wouldn't go flapping your gums and bragging...........the 16 teams who make the playoffs are no better off than the teams that don't make the playoffs, unless they win. Unless you didn't know, a successful season is only considered successful for the team that wins the Cup. So, yeah, the Leafs may be golfing, but they aren't alone. Buffalo, Anaheim...........nice try but sadly they both had unsuccessful seasons......
Go Leafs Go!!!!!
BTW, did you know that during the Playoffs, CBC ratings actually went down........compared to regular season Toronto Maple Leaf games???
Go Leafs Go!!!!!!

Ya know 2023, the thing about hockey is, It's a game, and I was merely poking a little fun at you in a friendly way, like alot of hockey fans do to each other. I will not let this thread degrade into a peeing contest about hockey teams, so you have my most heartfelt apologies for insulting your team. GO LEAFS!!!!!
