I just heard Stauffer mention an interesting stat. Boston is the only team in the NHL with a winning record in Edmonton. I hope they feel motivated to help change that.

[Terry]

Doesn't help when they play so few games here and can get psyched up for one game. Wish teams would do that in Calgary.

[Terry]

OT. Someone gets a penalty. Who does it go to? Oilers? Or the other team?

If one has to seriously ask that question, one does not follow hockey much.

Of course I knew that Boston would score on that.

Glad it wasn't on regular TV.

Sorry for those who paid to watch the usual officiating.

[jayman74]

I didn't pay, but I went to the pub by mistake, then I paid for years of PPV service while there. My philosphy has always been score 3 goals to win, 5 after the lockout in the new NHL. If you can't score you can't win. Good on Roli for a shutout. I honestly don't want to hear anymore excuses, if you can't score you suck fuckin' anus. I also think Dan Tencer is a total ass wart after listening to his post game show right this minute.

[jayman74]

Holy fuck man, I just had a 10 minute on air conversation with Dan Tencer. They liked me so much (maybe it was my hopeless loser flirting with the secretary and mentioning her on air), but I won 2 prizes and have to go pick them up. Woo!

[jayman74]

I totally forgot to give an OC shout out but I know none of you were listening anyway.

We will remember this Jay *shakes the fist*.

Other notes I hate MacTavish. After every crappy loss we have he and the coaching staff should be punched in the balls for the amount of goals we lost by. So this is what two games in a row we have been shut out by Boston? When did we last score against the Bruins. 2002?

Did macretard keep Cole on the right side?

I listened to a bit of the post-game, but I must have missed you.

So, I went to the game, and really, it wasn't terrible. It was probably one of the better games they played, as far as effort. There were a lot of yellow jerseys in the stands. They had a few really good plays right near the end of the third, and really, a couple of the shots should have gone in, but Thomas was unbelievably lucky in his saves. I would have liked to have seen a few more hits, and a little less trying to set up perfect plays. I think if they hadn't been coming off a 3 game losing skid, we would be a little gentler in our criticisms of last night's game. But I'm not saying the criticism is completely undeserved. I heard some of MacT's comments after the game, and I've never heard him so pissed off. It was disappointing for sure, but honestly, I thought it wasn't their worst game.

PS: I did get a signed Cole cap! Not really who I wanted but you can't pick the autographs.

[jayman74]

I was the very last caller about 2 hours after the game, then got to play there stupid trivia game. The question was whether or not Cole scored. No brainer since nobody scored. $75 gift certificate somewhere and something else I forgot right after they told me.

Sounds like this game was really good, not to sure why MacT would be so mad. I only got to listen to parts here and there on the radio while I was out.

It was ok. We did have a few chances that were stoned by thomas, we couldve scored maybe 3 goals imho but we were robbed. But def no more than 3
Boston couldve scored 5+ if not for roli / post.
