Bye bye Steve Whinerman !

The Edmonton Oiler's beat Detroit 4-3 in a stunning 3rd period come back. Detroit lead 2-0 after 2. First Fernando Pisani scored two goals, and became the home town hero...then Detroit scored a go ahead goal that put us behind the eight ball again, but Ales Hemsky potted two more and beame immortal!

Ladies and gentlemen this is the captain speaking, Firstly I'd like to thank you for choosing to fly Mandarin Airlines. As we taxi out to the runway please make yourself comfortable... and for those of you sitting on the right side of the plane... please look to your LEFT !
Easily replaced by Vancouver Canuck players...

That's what Detroit Red Wings fans will be feeling like after tomorrows game !

Oilers do the Deed !

The Oilers beat Detroit 3-2 and I missed the game due to a schedual malfunction! Roli the goalie was stingy, and the Oil pulled 3 goals out of their hats that left the Wings up against the ropes. The series goes back to Edmonton 3-2 for the Oilers, not many would have thought it possible, but I did ! Go Oilers Go ! Next game is Monday @ 6:00 pm mst on C.B.C

Game Day Baby !

These are my western conference picks for the SportsNet playoff hockey pool. I realize it looks a little biased, but its working for me. I'm currently 13 points behind the overall leader, and leading my group "the Pokerbums" by 6 points.

2 points

1 point

5 points

3 points

4 points

My eastern picks are all from the New Jersey Devils, a strategy that has worked beautifically !

Now all thats left to do is find 14 points and collect a big screen t.v. !

The game starts at 7:30 pm mst tonite !

Double Over-Time Thriller

The Oilers took a 2-1 series lead last night at an electric Rexall Place. Chris Pronger continued his all star play logging 47:17 mins and an assist. Shawn Horcoff chipped in 3 assists, and Brad Winchester added 2 a's. Dwayne Roloson was stingy with his 44 saves, and Ryan Smyth came to lead with a goal and an assist. All make my hero list, but Jarret Stoll gets the prize.

the hero "Jarret Stoll"
congrats
44 saves
gritty checking
smart play

Game Day

The Oilers are up front and center again as they play the Red Wings tonite in Edmonton @ 8:00 pm MST. I'm looking for a big game from our first line, Ales Hemsky in paticular ! Say your Oilers prayer, and grab your snacks... this is entertainment baby !

We won home ice advantage !

Ryan Smyth

Chris Pronger

Steve Staios

The Oilers won the game 4-2 with four well rounded lines and solid goaltending. They head back to Edmonton with one game a piece. My hero of the game was defenceman Chris Pronger with a goal and an assist. Look out detroit youre going into a very loud barn where you are very unwelcome !

Who can be a Hero ?

Ryan Smyth

*
Dwayne Roloson

*
Shawn Horcoff

Anyone can be a hero, we've seen it all year ! Todays game is a very early start, 11:00 a.m. mst, let's pray they get an early jump in the game so they can head back to Edmonton tied one game a piece. Chris Pronger, Sergei Samsonov, Ales Hemsky, and Jarret Stoll are other potential heros...you can leave your vote on my comments on who todays hero might be ?

GAME DAY

Ryan Smyth

Hello out there, we're on the air, it's hockey night tonight Tension grows, the whistle blows, and the puck goes down the ice The goalie jumps and the players bump and the fans all go insane. Someone roars, "Ryan scores!", at the good old hockey game.

Well, it's just about that time. Game 1 is tonight, and everything the Oilers have been working for all year is on the line. Say your Oilers prayer, it's time to rock and roll !

One more regular season game

The Oilers playoff hopes lay with Dwayne Roloson and Ty Conklin

The Oilers play Colorado in their final game of the regular season tonite. Let's call it a tune-up, or R&R for some of our star players, cause they get the league champion Detroit RedWings in round one of the playoffs. Congradulations for a great season guys, and good hunting in round 1.

Bragging Rights!

One more time, we're in we're in ! Sorry to all my Vancouver Canuck fan friends that will have to suffer through this ! Last time it was the Oilers, so it only seems fair. Well, fair would actually be the Colorado Avalanche sitting it out, but thats not gonna happen is it ? If you aren't happy for me , then please just pretend there's only 365 days til next years playoffs ! Peace...out !

We're In, We're In !

Hemsky followed by Stoll

The Oilers beat Anaheim 2-1, with Hemsky's winner coming with 33 seconds to go. 40 wins was enough, because the Vancouver Canucks tanked against the San Jose Sharks for the second consecutive night.

Pisani, Staios, and Roloson

It was a team effort as the gang poured in 37 shots. Chris Pronger had 2 assists and a stick to the mouth that drew a four minute Anaheim penalty late in the game. So the Oilers are likely going to play the Detroit RedWings in round 1, unless Colorado loses 2 in a row and the Oilers win their final game. Then the Oilers get their nemesis, the "Dallas Stars"! Who cares... We're In !

One Step Closer !

The Oilers move one step closer to the playoffs, and a spot in them as they play the St. Louis Blues today. They sit in 7th, 2 points ahead of Vancouver and San Jose (the Sharks have a game in hand). The Oilers and Canucks have 4 games left and the Sharks have 5. Two of these teams will make the post season and one wont, so the Oilers should really win all their remaining games if they want to be assured of a spot. It looks as if the Oilers wheels are turning and getting speed as they have got 11/16 points in their last 8 games. Four more points should cover, but anything could happen so say a prayer for the blue and copper !

Time to Put Out !

It's time for my Oilers to put out in a big way ! Playoff hockey is at stake, and Coyote roadkill is on the menu. The big guns must score more, and more often. Say an Oilers prayer, there's only 7 games left in the season including this one, and the Sharks are hot on the Oilers tail.
