We're up 4-0 at the end of the first period against Chicago.
I need to stress that again.

Oilers record this year is 8-11-5. Chicago is 21-1-3. They've only lost one game in regulation, and that was two days ago against Colorado. Oilers are tied for last in the league.

Welp, halfway through Hitman on hard. Really not that hard. Once again kicking myself for not starting a game on higher difficulties.

OIC.. Well, I hope your team does not have to play in a lesser division.

Thankfully, the NHL doesn't do that.OIC.. Well, I hope your team does not have to play in a lesser division.Otherwise we'd be playing beer league right now. In the last three years, we've been last place in the league twice and second last once.
We have not been playing well.

Score is 5-2 now, with Dubnyk (our goaltender) being run over and leaving with what appears to be a neck injury. We now have our second backup goaltender in net.

Be afraid. Be very afraid.

Prostate massage?
Clap?
Dual-wield beers?
Breast self-examination?
Play Hockey on an emulator!

My prostate has been rather neglected lately.
I have been clapping whenever they do something good.
I'm getting ready to go get another beer.
My breasts are supple and inviting.
Playing hockey on an emulator would give me like, four different colour commentators, and that would drive me insane.
Also, it's 6-4 going into the third period.
Gonna have a shower during the second intermission, I think.

Back home. Thank God.
Hey has anyone seen Merry lately?

I hate you.
Thankfully, the NHL doesn't do that.Kinda takes the danger out of being shite! Was there ever a better time? Or has supporting them just been constant heartache?

Depends how long you've followed the team for.I hate you.
'83-'90, we were the team to beat. We won the Stanely Cup 5 times in those 7 years. We kind of slumped in the early '90s, then reached middle of the pack in the late '90s (made the Playoffs three or four times, but never advanced further than the 2nd round). We slumped again a bit in the early '00s, then the lockout happened and we lost a season. The '05-'06 season, we snuck into the Playoffs in with the 8th seed (the absolute bare minimum to get into the Playoffs) and managed a Cinderella Story all the way to Game 7 in the Stanley Cup finals, which we lost in overtime to the Carolina Hurricanes. We really slumped after that, and have been one of the worst teams in the league ever since.
I really started watching games around the '96-'97 Playoff runs, and got really into them during the '05-'06 season. I was hoping we would start doing a bit better this year (we are stacked with talent), but we can't seem to find the chemistry.
It doesn't help that the median age for players on our team is ~24. We have a lot of young, talent guys who just need a bit more time to mature in this league. We don't have enough veteran players to take them under their wings right now. About half of our players need at least one more year in the AHL.
