You had ONE job! Does he get a refund?

I'm assuming that his last name is McDavid as well and maybe his birth year. Sucks that we will all force him to change his last name, since Connor is our saviour.

I've been thinking that a new jersey (with the new OEG logo) may be in the works for the arena opening. We'll start hearing rumours around January/February 2016 and probably an unveiling at the 2016 draft.... where the Oilers will win the lottery again, cause Oilers. Trouble is the OEG logo has a blue ring, orange oil drop, which looks good on its own with no background, it'll work on a white jersey, but you need a logo that will look good and standout on a blue background as well, might have to modify that logo a bit to suit putting on a jersey.

Throw it on a white background circle like the current logo.



That's Bolts minimalist, which is where the league is likely headed.

2015/2016 - This Kool-Aid tastes like McDavid flavoured Drain-O.
2016/2017 - This Kool-Aid is starting to taste like juice.
2017/2018 - I'm drinking this Kool-Aid, in hopes that it's Drain-O.
2018/2019 - Another round of Drain-O, good sir!

That half bottom crescent has to go for the new logo, looks like a smiley.

They should just use the logo that is in my avatar for crying out loud, as it just looks more classy.

I want the new design NOW and not next year!

The shoes. It's a jersey form of those shoes that I'm most afraid of.

Eichel killing it at the combine sounds like.

Buffalo Sabres @BuffaloSabres
As of now, Eichel #1 in these tests at #NHLCombine: long jump, vert. jump, aerobic duration, agility R, R-hand grip.


Edmonton Oilers @EdmontonOilers
Now THAT is a scrum. #NHLCombine



McDavid was able to do pullups :)

Joanne Ireland @jirelandEJ
So how did McDavid measure up? 97.3 in standing long jump; 19.488 in vertical jump; 6 pull-ups; 9 reps bench press.
