I think they have 2 or 3 different types of little zone plays like that, it's not just one thing, although the goal scorer is usually the 3rd forward on the line, no doubt.

We get burned on the back door pass by those guys every (frank)ing game... it's as predictable as the one-time pass from the corner or the left-right-left deke in NHL 94.

Too young for 94? O man. I could have sworn I was the youngest guy on the Canucks thread this shocks me. I was 6 when it came out. And I played the shyt out of that game.

Blades of Steel!

Eakins spoke about the pace of practices as well. He said last year they had to spend so much time at the white board teaching and getting drills perfected. This year most of those things are fixed and practices are much faster and harder and guys are in the right spots and practicing the right way. I think we are slowly seeing results. Need some goaltending to come through though.

Gotta give credit where its due- the Flames are a better team than the Oilers last year, right now and likely next year... Corsi may be pretty to run and use for presentations but in the end wins are wins...

No fighting. In Blades, only the person who lost the fight was penalized. If it worked that way, I bet Gadzic could crack the lineup.

Oh no its full credit... I was in denial for the last couple years and would not submit- even when I sat behind the Oiler bench- and bared withness to a BOA 8-1 drubbing- I would not yield to the flames fans beside me... However this season and where we are right now- its (frank)ing embarrassing- I am tired of this poop and after the Flames won by shutout last night against a top contender team of the west- and near the top of the west- they are a team that works and are getting results- they have a better built team even tho we have been the team rebuilding for 8 (frank)ing years... In the end- we cant win and are expected to... They are not really expected to win yet finish every season ahead of us in the standings... I give them full credit in my moment right now of weakness as an Oiler fan...

So every single time this stuff has been proven with real world examples like the Leafs and the Avs we should just forget it and move on?
