Typical Oilers. Well I suppose that at least Calgary aren't the laughing stock of Canadian hockey for a change.

Maybe to the fans, hence their continued support of mediocre teams. As long as there are bums in the seats the ownership really doesn't care. The Ballard years were a classic example of this.

WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!! OILERS GOIN' TO THE PLAYOFFS!
(in my mind.)
Ahem. Well, we gave it a good run, boys. We sucked in the first half of the year, but we learned from our mistakes, and we made things interesting down the stretch. As a fan, that's all I can ask of the team in a situation like that.

I'll do a full set of predictions after the western seeds get settled. We know #1 Detroit has #8 Nashville, and #2 San Jose gets #7 St. Louis. Vancouver's #3 and Colorado's #4, but Dallas & Calgary haven't settled #5 and #6 yet (though Dallas is beating up on Chicago as I write, which would give them #5)."If you doubt that an infinite number of monkeys at an infinite number of typewriters would eventually produce the combined works of Shakespeare, consider: it only took 30 billion monkeys and no typewriters." - Unknown

Most of those predictions don't make any sense...
Particularly Dallas over Colorado. Have you paid attention to how Dallas has played lately?"The issue is there are still many people out there that use religion as a crutch for bigotry and hate. Like Ben."
