Official Oil Thread 11/12
 

it's signing day and well, the Oil just signed Ben Eager, Darcy Hordichuk and Cam Barker.

Hordi is being interviewed on the phone and he's rambling about how he was brought in to protect Hall and Eberle........ I don't know about you guys but i'd much rather have Big Mac, rather Hordi who won't fight anyone having more than 4 inches on him anymore!!!

What do you guys think ??

As much as i liked having Big Mac on the Oilers he rarely played and always had a hard time finding a dance partner. Although Hordichuk and Eager are a down grade in toughness IMO as compared to MacIntyre they will play more and bring a much nastier attitude to the Oilers something they have been lacking for years.

This will be a fun team to watch this year. I gotta think they will take a significant step in development. Certainly offensively. Hopkins looks like the real deal too. I've really enjoyed watching them in the preseason.

Good luck!

The Boys showed immense heart and determination in their game against the Pens, I liked what I saw and not to mention Duby had a sick game!!

If you would have told me NK would have a GAA of 0.72, a SPCT of .969 and be undefeated in regulation in his first four games I would have sh!t my pants laughing...

And yet here we are... :0) :approve:

Wow, we're playing GREAT hockey & Bulin has been on FIRE!!

I'll be at the games tonight 2nd row behind the net where to Oil attack 2x!

Another ****ty year!
