Bonsignore Citizens Brigade: Devils @ Oilers
See what happens? I come home from Asia and the Oilers win the first game I attend. So basically, I'm taking all the blame for the shit season they're having. How selfless of me.
Tonight the Devils are in town, and unfortunately (or fortunately) I'm predicting a loss for the Oilers on this one. The Devils have a good team, and the Oilers... not so much.
Even though they won against the Wild a couple nights ago, I can't see them beating the Devils tonight. Regardless, we'll bitch about the game together. And if the game is boring, we'll talk about blowies, whores and drunken tails of triumph or heartache.
Devils win tonight brings us closer to our first overall pick. Beautiful.

What the fuck. I'm right in the middle of writing one. FUCK YOU.
ReplyDelete-js
Also, I was in the building when the Oilers broke their 1000 game losing streak and won against the Leafs.
ReplyDeleteSo really, any good luck the Oilers have had this season is clearly because of JSBM.
If anyone cares, which you don't, here's what JS had to say on the matter before I was rudely interrupted by the glory hog.
ReplyDelete"Blah, blah, blah, Oilers, blah blah blah, Kovalchuck going to come in and light up our AHL tandem, blah blah blah, if they don't resign Comrie to a 2 or 3 year deal in the summer I will personally show up at Tambo's house and scream at his face, blah blah blah, seriously why isn't Gilbert Brule playing more? He's been playing well pretty much all season, there's nothing left to lose and lets face it we really only have a few guys who are still out there trying/are any good. Best case scenario they are still sheltering him so he doesn't plateau early like in Columbus, worst case scenario he plateau's because his confidence is shot because they are sheltering him too much and he's getting no minutes even though he's working his balls off and playing well.
Last game looked surprisingly decent. Comrie is still playing well and if he hadn't of almost died from whatever super sickness he battled through for most of the season he'd probably have 40 points right now. Brule has a wicked fucking shot and I have no idea why Quinn doesn't let him showcase it more, say, you know, on the power play or something. My only real gripe with last game is with JDD; either be good or be shitty, stop being both! If he had as many solid games like the last one against Minnesota, as he had games where he lets in 4 goals on 6 shots we'd probably all be talking about how much of a return we could get for Dubnyk. But he's so inconstant that I'm pretty confident he's going to get shelled tonight, even though they are playing super defensive-minded New Jersey.
It doesn't look like Ryan Whitney was too noticeable out there, which I guess is a good thing going by his recent track record. As long as he's not leaking goals against then we shouldn't have a whole lot to complain about when it comes to him for the rest of the season. Next season is when the picture will finally start to take shape and we can really pass judgement on him as to weather he was worth trading Lubo for, or if he's going to be the next POS. Speaking of Patrick O'Sullivan, how about that move by Ryan Potulny in the shootout? I love this kid more and more every game and I hope he's an integral piece of this painful rebuild. Now if only we could teach him to win faceoffs.....
New Jersey has been just as pitiful in their last 10 games as the Oilers so surprisingly enough this game could go either way. We all know how well Brodeur has been playing for the last couple weeks, Kovalchuck has been okay but I'm guessing the Devils were hoping for a lot more out of him and Zach Parise is still fucking lights out. The Oilers are coming into this game after finally winning their 20th of the season. I seriously didn't think they would even get that far so bravo Oilers for surpassing all my wildest expectations. It's a two horse race for last in the league right now, although Carolina is just barely on the edge, and with my firm support behind taking Tyler Seguin in the draft I hope the Oilers string together just enough wins to surpass the Leafs, end up with the number 2 pick and win me my bet. Although I do take great solace in knowing that the Leafs traded for all these high profile players and are just barely ahead of an Oilers squad who has been starting an AHL tandem for 3/4 of the season, and has lost more man games to injury this year than their entire franchise history combined, including all of their good players excluding Gagner."
No one cares. LOL
ReplyDeletegreat hockey song too.
No one cares JS. LOL
ReplyDeletegreat hockey song video too.
So I take it I am never going to be able to write a BCB again?
ReplyDeleteFuck I guess I should just fuck off for a while and you guys can start calling me Rusty.*
Also, I know you've been gone for a while there BM but around here wins are a bad thing. FUCK YOU.
*I'm 100% convinced that he is actually dead. What other explanation can there be?
I know, I was pissed off that they won. But I did win movie tickets.
ReplyDelete-bm
Also, I was wondering where Rusty went as well. Nothing from him for ages now.
ReplyDeleteAnd you can write all the BCBs you want. Don't overestimate our laziness.
-bm
I liked Elias better went he had Hep C
ReplyDelete-bm
You and I both know that shit is for life. That's why we made the blood pact in the first place right?
ReplyDelete-js
It's the gift that keeps on giving.
ReplyDeleteSide note, my brother in law won tickets to a lunch with Tambellini where they could ask questions about the team. He said there was some fucking beauties there as well.
Old men swearing at him for this shit hockey team full of pussies. He also said he'll be buying out some contracts this summer, and implied that if Moreau is still here next year probably won't be captain.
-bm
Brodeur has never shut out Edmonton? Strange.
ReplyDeleteHopefully he makes history tonight!
ReplyDelete-js
He sure knows how to plug his wife's sister's hole though. Am I right? Anyone?
ReplyDelete-bm
what do you mean BM?
ReplyDeleteBrodeur fucked his sister in law.
ReplyDelete-bm
Good to see Gene Principe is still awful.
ReplyDelete-bm
He was actually surprisingly decent during his Olympic gig. I guess it helps when you don't have to try and polish a turd every single game.
ReplyDelete-js
That was a really boring period.
ReplyDeleteDefense! Defense! Defense!
ReplyDeleteWe're in for a wild one tonight boys. Hold onto your balls.
-js
Just so everyone knows, I won a coffee with Roll up the Rim today.
ReplyDeleteAlso, Tim Horton's will be sued when the accelerator sticks on one of those Rav 4s they're giving away and someone dies.
-bm
GOALLLLLLLLLLLLLLL
ReplyDelete-bm
But don't we want the Oilers to lose? That seems strange to say.
ReplyDeleteI think we're way past that point. There is no way we don't get a top 2 pick, so we can safely start cheering for them to start playing better and hopefully get some shit together for next year.
ReplyDelete-js
Oh yeah, I guess it looks like Marty may be ending his career without a shutout in Edmonton.
ReplyDelete-js
Toronto is losing today. I had a nightmare on my way home from work. Edmonton wins a few and Toronto loses more. Oilers finish 29th and the the28th place team wins the lottery. We pick 3rd. I can tell you right now... FUCK CAM FOWLER!
ReplyDeleteFuck you guys just chatting away on MSN. I hate you guys
ReplyDeletehaha BM actually just figured out how to get on 2 minutes ago. We were facebook chatting. And actually I've been spending more time looking at hilariously expensive luxury mansions more than anything.
ReplyDeleteOh is there still a hockey game on?
-js
I just sent you guys some epic emails. Enjoy them.
ReplyDeleteLove your dear friend, Travis.
Hey fuckers! 'sup?
ReplyDeleteOh yeah. A hockey team is playing the NHL New Jersey Devils. How exciting! And we're...what? WINNING??? Be still my beating heart. I have to laugh when I think Tambellini must be swearing his ass off up in the catwalk box because he thought he loaded up the team with players so shitty a loss would be almost guaranteed most nights.
You could have posted them on the site if you wanted.
ReplyDelete-bm
New Jersey needs a fucking goal.
ReplyDelete-bm
Of course Brodeur brings his A game tonight.
ReplyDeletehaha okay, wait, wait, wait. You think pooping is gross but you send us that shit? I don't know about you Dakin. But I like you.
ReplyDelete-js
I'm making a post with them now....
ReplyDeleteDavid! So who is drinking with me this Saturday?
What's this shit about "New Jersey needs a fucking goal."? Fuck you and your loser talk. The season is already a loss. Let these guys have whatever dignity they can scrounge for the rest of the season.
ReplyDeleteAnd that goes ∞ for you Travis. Heh heh.
>Edmonton needs another goal!<
So I was checking the game start on the 13th. Its 5:00 so I guess that's the reason for the inhumanly early ON party start. On the upside, we're playing the Leafs, so another "guaranteed" win. Ha ha!
ReplyDeleteI'll try to get there around the start of the second. A 4:30 drinking start would put me in the emergency room just around midnight.
If the Oilers don't get Hall or Seguin because of your blaspheming.... I'm going to be very Angry.
ReplyDeleteDavid I can cheer for whichever draft pick, I mean team I want...
ReplyDelete*cries that someone yelled at him*
-bm
Fuck me, Lubo scored a beauty.
ReplyDelete-bm
Oh quit your whining BM. You guys are going to get your precious draft pick, who as we all know will get first-line minutes and of course lead the team in points next year. I mean, first round draft picks that high up are a lock for stardom, right?
ReplyDeleteAw hell. I know we have to tank to get "better", but I don't have to like it.
*sinks into couch in despair*
Yeah. That Lubo is really something. But now its all about guys like Chorney - the future cornerstone of our D.
ReplyDelete*Chambers bullet and turns up music REAL loud*
Man I feel bad for the poor bastards that have POS on their line.
ReplyDeleteBut I like whining, and I haven't complained about hockey in a long time. Speaking of flop draft picks, I really want to get Bonsignore on my jersey. I have to I think.
ReplyDelete-bm
What the fuck does Storts say to people when they chirp him?
ReplyDelete"Dar wer you gonna arghh roushh hugs and bragghh"
Seriously JDD, why can't you just always play like this? Or never play like this again.
ReplyDeleteFuck I'm so conflicted!
Man is it ever fucking quiet in there. Holy shit.
-js
So what the fuck. Comrie has been benched?
ReplyDeleteNote to Oilers,
ReplyDeleteDon't give Kovalchuk breakaways. That is all.
-baggedmilk
WHAT THE FUCK? NILSSON AND POULIOT MAKING GOOD PLAYS???
ReplyDelete-js
FUCK SAKES DAVID. Fuck sakes.
ReplyDeleteYeah. Get rid of Nilsson. Piece of shit.
ReplyDeleteHaha Pouliot. Fuck that guy.
ReplyDelete-bm
Come on David, one good play every 40 games doesn't make up for being a non-factor in every other game.
ReplyDelete-js
I swear to God, the shit season was all my fault. If I had been here, we'd be going for the Presidents trophey.
ReplyDelete-bm
Kevin Lowe's draft thinking...
ReplyDelete"Hmm this Pouliot character has a lot of points. He must be a winner. I doubt he has anyone of value on his line, and that he does it all himself. I like it."
Something tells me Travis is grinding his teeth pretty hard right about now. Ha ha!
ReplyDeleteDavid you seem like you need a hug today. Can I complain about Horcoff's contract at least? At least it's my site and I can say fuck a jew if I want.
ReplyDeleteNah nah nah
-bm
JS - How much is a guy worth who gets 40 points on a shit team like the Oilers (about what Nilsson is tracking at)? I bet $2 million would be in the ballpark. Imagine Nilsson on a good team, with real NHL'ers and PP time. That contract would be money. So is it the team or is it the player at fault here?
ReplyDeleteI really miss Ray Ferraro, he was fucking hilarious.
ReplyDelete-bm
That fitness-singles ad below looks enticing. I think I will check it out.
ReplyDeleteHonestly, on any other team, I don't seen Nilsson doing a whole lot more. I agree he doesn't have much of a supporting cast around him here, but if he was really that good he should be making the opportunities for himself. Hemsky hasn't had anyone to play with outside of one or two good years with Horcoff, and he's still putting up the points at an elite pace.
ReplyDeleteNot that I'm comparing the two players per say, but they play a similar style, on the same team, and it's like night and day.
I can't see him working his way onto the top 2 lines on a legitimate team. Maybe a bubble team like Phoenix or Atlanta, but on any legitimate contender he's a 3rd liner at best, maybe getting a sniff every now and then on the 2nd PP unit.
He's got skills, but like Rob Schremp he can't seem to put the entire thing together and make it work at the level he should be.
-js
I would love a blowie right now. Just throwing that out there.
ReplyDelete-bm
Gagner is so cute. Mmmmm
ReplyDelete-bm
How the fuck is this team looking so good? Have the Devils really started shitting the bed that badly? Jesus.
ReplyDelete-js
Nilsson needs good guys to play with. Quinn has him with Penner who's supposed to be the finisher, but he's been on sabbatical the last while.
ReplyDeleteBTW - Robert with another decent shift on the PP.
Hahah Pat Quinn is so old. I love that old bastard.
ReplyDelete-bm
HA HA! WINNAH WINNAH CHICKEN DINNAH!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteRelax boys. There's tons of soul crushing losses still to be had this year.
ReplyDeleteIts a god damn winning streak!
ReplyDeleteI'm actually on your team this time David S. There is no way we don't get a top 2 pick, so these sporadic wins are a nice way to break up the heartbreaking defeats/pathetic, unwatchable, barely there efforts.
ReplyDelete2 solid games in a row. Who would have thought?
-js
I take full credit. I come home, and they start winning. FACT!
ReplyDelete-bm
Hang on, no one swore enough. FUCK FUCK SHIT FUCK.
ReplyDeleteThat's better.
-bm
You know BM, it could be that ever since you left the team has dropped off the cliff. If I were you, I'd keep a low profile around town.
ReplyDeleteIf we end up losing that top 2 pick I'll kill all of you.
ReplyDelete"I'm actually on your team this time David S. There is no way we don't get a top 2 pick, so these sporadic wins are a nice way to break up the heartbreaking defeats/pathetic, unwatchable, barely there efforts."
ReplyDeleteI'm going to fucking hold that against you, you god damn fucky. Fuck sakes I am so god damn fucking pissed off at the lot of you. Fucking fuck.
And Anonymous, You can't kill what will already be dead. Fucks.
Did I make up for some of the lack of swearing?
Fucking right you did Travis.
ReplyDeleteFuck yeah!
ReplyDeleteFUCKING JSBM!!! CUNTING ASSFUCK!!!
ReplyDeleteWOOOOOOO!!!!
