Bonsignore Citizens Brigade: Wild At Oilers

Wake me up when it's draft day. Or if the Caps and Pens meet in the playoffs.

It's Friday night, the Oilers are still by far the worst team in the NHL, and getting worse by the day (get well soon Ladi) and this game is on Pay Per View. Unless you made the horrible error in judgement and paid for the PPV package in advance and you feel the need to get your money's worth, then there are far better things for all of us to do on this Friday night. Fuck sitting in the dark and staring at the ceiling is a better use of your time.


I've officially lost all interest in Oilers hockey for the rest of the year. Trying to get back to the grind after those amazing two weeks during the Olympics is far harder than I ever thought it was going to be. I barely watched the last game against the Hawks. It was on, and I heard bits and pieces of it, but I pretty much only saw the replays. And besides it was WAY more fun talking about porn on Oilers Nation. If you guys weren't there you missed a hell of a party.

The only thing worth watching tonight is Ryan Whitney in his debut wearing the cooper and blue. I don't think we'll have enough time to fully evaluate him with what little games remain in the season, but it will hopefully give us a bit of an indication on weather or not he's mediocre, soft, and basically just a taller version of Tom Gilbert, or if he may actually turn into a valuable piece of this team for the next 4 years. I'm going to hold out my judgement until at least game 80, as to hopefully avoid jumping the gun and embarrassing myself by leaning too much toward one side (see O'Sullivan, Patrick). Oh and I guess some guy who looks like a less cavemanish version of Stortini and some defenseman named Johnson who used to play for some kind of douchebag squad who's name is escaping me right now are also getting in on the action tonight.

It's Friday night. Go out and have some fun. The Oilers loss will be there waiting for you tomorrow morning as you sit down to eat your greasy hangover remedy breakfast. Best. Season. Ever.

Apparently baggedmilk will be at the game tonight, so if you're going to be in attendance and you see a really loud, obnoxious guy who sounds like a 12 year old boy, throw something at him.
