OMG, The team wins a challenge! The league got the call right. -definitely was an offside based on the replay.

Is this real life?

A call over turned, followed by a goal?

much tank

top 5 draft pick here we come slowly but surely! Even tho we are one point out of a playoff spot since the pacific division is so shit!

I was really happy when I found out the Oilers won today

Nice to see that happen to one of the most fierce, yet classy, competitors out there. Nice gesture for the team to come out and congratulate him too.

Players must be really in-tune with stats; Duschene picked up the puck immediately.

McDavid had to sign this.... hahahahha

That is awesome on so many levels!!

Benning was on the radio saying he won't tank. What if trade deadline rolls and we still have Vrbata, Hamhuis, and Prust...

sigh... to be real here... its difficult for this team to tank with the sedins and miller...

and of course... this entire pacific division

Has anyone ever openly admitted they were gonna tank?

And yes, we have competition for tanking in the Pacific division. :lol

I'm 90% sure Tim Murray did last year

i'm kind of expecting the Canucks to retain those guys at the deadline...because Canucks. They'll make up some bullshit excuse like the market wasn't good or someshit like that while Tim Murray will get a 1st rounder, a prospect and blow job for Matt Moulson

Everybody wants them out but when was the last time we actually made a trade that made sense? If i had to estimate i'd put the chances of them staying at 90%

One word.

Higgins.

They can't openly admit to tanking.

Why would he? Tickets sales are shitty enough already. If they say publicly that they are tanking then it's going to get worse.

If the team is near the bottom by trade deadline and we still have injuries to Miller, the Sedins, and Sutter. I would not be surprised if Benning starts trading away players for picks. Imagine getting that top 5 pick and an extra 1st rounder. We can easily package it together for Matthews. It's one of those years where the top 3 players can easily be the first pick.

All I know is this year is a great year to tank with the prospect pool... Ya Benning said we are not tanking but we sure aint winning either.. I just home Prust and Hammer are healthy to be traded in a couple months.

Went to the game last night, probably my fill for the year. What a terrible atmosphere

Also lol @ Higgins, buddy just riding out s good gig in Van, he is useless

I can't believe Burrows is buried on the 4th line while Higgins gets to fill in for Daniel while he was getting repaired, 2nd line, 2nd PP, and PK.

3 fucking points halfway through the year and still in the top 6. On any other team, he'd have been on waivers by now.

Gotta love that John Scott captain of allstar game

lol no

Matthews is the clear #1

Same thing with the debate between Eichel and McDavid. Yeah, Eichel should turn out to be a great player, but you don't pick him over Connor McDavid.

lol JB might say we're not tanking but WD knows what's up

what a goal
the Finns deserved it

gonna be interesting to see where their top prospects will go at the draft

^ He will go #2 overall

Wasn't Higgins on the 4th line during the cup run? How have things changed.
