I will probably be watching the ravens and Bills game but once it's over I'll be all in on oilers smoking the Canucks

Unless you have a time machine, you'll be watching that game tomorrow evening. Commanders/Lions is tonight.

This is a dangerous game.. Canucks hate the Oilers and vice versa.. their team has been a tire fire of drama and discontent.. everyone is on the hot seat.. both players and coaches.. the players will be looking at this game as an escape from it.. this will be a gnarly game .. Oilers need to come in hot and have their heads in the game at the drop.
I was thinking of going tonight .. never seen McD live.. tragic.. but all the resales are sky high.. next year!
Go Oil!

Fun Fact I read over at Cult of Hockey
https://edmontonjournal.com/sports/hockey/nhl/cult-of-hockey /edmonton-oilers-vancouver-canucks-game-day-stu-skinner-calv in-pickard
| Quote: |
Cast your mind back to two weeks ago today. The Edmonton Oilers were on the west coast for the first leg of their ongoing cross-and-recross-continental tour of seemingly random NHL cities, as a road trip that would next take them to Boston started, logically enough, in Seattle.
Having played in Edmonton the night before, the Oilers started well enough, building an early lead though flagging a bit by the third period. That was when netminder Calvin Pickard misjudged a change-up from Kraken defender Vince Dunn, attempted to direct the reboud into the corner but instead poked it weakly onto the stick of winger Jaden Schwartz, who scored.
That cut Edmonton’s lead to 3-2 midway in the final frame, though the Oilers would ultimately see it through, add an empty-netter and start their January journeys with a 4-2 win.
Why do I mention this random event from what is becoming ancient history?
Because as of this moment a fortnight later, this was the last time the Oilers allowed a goal against in the third period of any game.
In the SIX (6) games since, five of them officially road games and the sixth effectively so, Edmonton netminders Stu Skinner and Pickard have faced 61 third-period shots and stopped all 61 of them.
The Oilers won five of the six, all in regulation, with three of those wins being by a single goal. Three times the squad was tied entering the third period and found the one goal needed to win it; on another, they nursed a slender 1-0 lead forged late in the second period all the way to the final buzzer.

Sorry if any chiefs fans here. They make me sick.

Yeah I watched that, two Chiefs drives extended with phantom roughing the passer calls.. tired of seeing them.. especially Kelce.. I'm hoping Josh Allen makes it in to take them out..

Same here. I don't think I can even stomach watching it next week. NFL is just a joke. They don't even try to hide it anymore. What about that flop Mahomes did as the third quarter ended. That should be a flag! Seriously hate that guy's guts. He might be talented, but it's insane how desperate they are for calls. Makes me sick
