Don't worry... that was almost a word for word quote of what Lowe and MacT said in Edmonton two and three years ago...

But, once they had 9 guys on the IR list at one time, 5 with head injuries, they realized that maybe, just maybe they had miscalculated... You see, you might score on the PP... you just might... but taking a 2-1 lead in the second period pales in comparison to the fact that Jarrett Stoll, your second line centre just got his SECOND concussion in two weeks and is now out for the season...

Once they realized that this whole "the pp is our enforcer" theory was absolute bull sh!t, they went out this year and dressed Stortini almost every night, played MacIntyre a bunch and had Peckham as the first callup on D... The Oilers were top 5 in FMs this year... a far cry from the "we don't need to fight" BS of the past few years.

Mark my words - McPhee will publicly eat his words within 24 months...
