Bonsignore Citizens Brigade: Flyers @ Oilers

"I had a pretty decent game against the Flyers once." -Wayne G.

Has everyone recovered from THE GREATEST DAY OF ALL TIME on Monday? It only took them a month, but Lowe and behold the Oilers got their first win of 2010! It's just too bad we'll have to wait until September for them to get their second win. Tyler Seguin with 4 points in his first game. Anyone? Anyone??

The Flyers are on fire. The Oilers are the opposite of on fire. And I'm not talking about water. I'm talking about if you literally turned fire inside out and it was somehow cold to the touch, like liquid nitrogen. The Oilers are like the T-1000 in Terminator 2 after he gets doused in liquid nitrogen! Don't touch them because they're super brittle and could explode into a million tiny pieces at any moment. But unfortunately for the Oilers those pieces can't melt into liquid, squiggle across the ground and rebuild themselves into a working T-1000 again. No my friends, only Steve Tambellini can take these minuscule shards of a hockey team and put them back together to form something that works again.
*face palm*

I'd like to flip the script here a little, if I may. Can anyone tell me which Jr. phenom is leading the CHL in scoring right now? If you guessed Taylor Hall, you'd be fucking wrong. He's in second. Tyler Seguin is the correct answer. Like I've said before I would kill to have either of these kids wearing Oiler silks next season, but Tambo/Oiler scouts, if you have any decency left in your body after this soul crushing season, you'll do us all a favor and take my boy Tyler. There's something about Hall that makes me nervous. I don't know what it is, but it's there. Maybe I just don't trust his weird face.

Oh, and before I forget, does anyone know who else is in the top 5 for CHL scoring? Jordan Fucking Eberle. Boner's for everyone! It's going to be a fun year next year, regardless of how shitty the Oilers still are. Gagner - Penner - Hemsky, Seguin - Eberle - Cogliano? I'm getting goosebumps just thinking about it! (Although this team already has too many fucking centers. I hope some of these little dudes learn how to play wing soon).

Apparently some guy that used to play for the Oilers and then booked it out of town as soon as he got his dink a little dirty (Tiger Woods should have taken some notes) is back tonight. This is probably a minor story, considering no former Oiler has ever come back to shove it up the ass of his former team. And it's not like this dude who's name is escaping me at the moment lead the Oilers to within 2 goals of the Stanley Cup or anything, only to skip town 2 weeks later.
(That was easily the worst season I've had as a hockey fan, roller coaster of emotions wise. My favorite player gets traded to my favorite team, leads said team to game 7 of the SCF, and then demands a trade, all in one season? I'm surprised my heart still works).

So the Dakins have taken off to greener pastures for the night, Poo Czar probably has some kind of glory hole engagement he has to get to, Towel Boy has a "family" (yeah, okay), and Rusty is MIA, presumed dead. Looks like it's going to be another two man party tonight.

jeanshorts prediction: Flyers 5 - Oilers 2. Jordan Eberle gets lowered from the rafters right before the puck drop, scores 2 goals in less than 30 seconds, then is immediately encased in bronze and cemented into place in front of the future RX2 site.

EDIT: Here's a little ditty I just stumbled across. Apparently POS took part in the February Hair Massacre charity they do every year for cancer. Even though I loathe his lackluster play with all my being this season, you have to give him some props for this.
