Great blog ... entertaining & funny .. Tootsie what can ya say ... Dabney Coleman / Teri Garr / Charles Durning / Geena Davis / Bill Murray / Jessica Lange / Dustin Hoffman / and Sidney Lumet as the agent ... an all timer .. - OEL is awesome & Domi is what idk ...
The Oil aren’t unlucky they simply suck eggs... and Talbot should stop complaining and learn to stop something smaller than a beach ball...

Domi might be a douche, but he will forever hold a special place in my heart for knocking Kesler on his ass.

Truth be told the future is bright for a lot of Canadian teams, Habs and Ottawa, not so much

It's almost as if people have caught on that Tanner writes inflammatory hit-jobs to incite reactionary posts. Hardly anyone commenting anymore. Uncanny.

Don't really follow the Coyotes much at all, What has Domi done to be given the "doosh" term? I Don't really know much about him.

I agree with you on Stroman! He's really beginning to be very irritating! Needs to grow up and become a man!

Plus: Your acknowledgement of the state of the Senators arena situation and what the best course of action is.

Minus: The fact that the Coyotes are in the same exact boat, and within the past year on one of your Coyotes blogs, you lambasted the same suggested move for that team (moving closer to downtown / the fan base).


Plus: Talbot's rant. He really got plowed.




Minus: The egg the Caps laid last night against a team that is reeling. That was pure madness. Chicago had lost 8 straight games, but somehow looked Washington square in the eye and said “not in our house

[url]


Plus: Your rink looks pretty good. Even the ice surface looks level. Must be fun to take shots on net.

Minus: It looks a bit small (probably due to lack of space). You should have put a miniature goal out there, and maybe a miniature Zamboni… it would have given the illusion of being bigger.

A HUGE +/- is meaningless, but 4% Corsi is the be all, end all.

He's made a few comments to the media that have gone over like a lead balloon. Probably a case of things being taken a bit far, but that's life as an athlete. There's a reason why most give boring interviews.

The biggest issue is his play. He had a great rookie season but has regressed more every year since. Doesn't play defense and doesn't put up points to offset it. He probably needs to rethink his game if he wants to stay in the league. If not for being a first rounder he's 1-2 years away from playing in Europe.

Plus- The fact that you can't use the comments section to bait people into "clicks"

minus- Since your inception you "guaranteed" the Oilers dominance in this league.
"multiple Stanley cups" you said! Sums up what you know about hockey.

Minus- Oel's -36 is team worst and also league worst, Your mentioning Chara is interesting because he has the league best +/- for defensemen. What is also interesting is your past habits of using +/- when it supports your argument. But back to OEL, Yours excuses do not work because Goligoski has a way better +/-, has the same point total as OEL and plays more minutes(5v5), He also has a harder "D" zone % then OEL!. Face it Oel is having a rough year. It's okay, He is a good player and will rebound, Just like the Oilers!

And since puckdrop in the 14/15 season, OEL is worst in the league with -85. Care to comment, Tanner...?

OEL should win the Norris because he is +4.9% RELATIVE TO HIS TEAM! But wait, didn't he already say that his team is poop. What exactly does +4.9% corsi relative to a garbage team mean? On it's own, absolutely nothing.
