So the real burning question, is this the year the oilers don't make a lottery pick?

I wasn't aware that they constructed them by hand.

While I understand what you're getting at, I won't give it a serious response until you can frame the question in something that resembles comprehensible english bro.

Its not trolling if he is speaking the truth, even if you don't like it?
- rune_74


To troll is to make a comment that will incite an emotional reaction...coming into the Oilers thread to disparage Hemsky with a "will be injured by x game" remark is trolling. That fact that many people called him out on this is proof that he only came to troll, and if he was a regular poster would have been reported by now. And potentially banned...unfortunately a blogger cannot be banned/suspended. And then there is the case of his little guard dog micah who bans any and all that speak out against Ian Esplug

yes sir i stand corrected i did. Now that would give him an average of 67gp over 7 years and Hemsky has averaged a mere 62gp over 9 years played. Thanks for the correction, the mere difference of 5gp per year between the two just proves my point even more. both players are injury prone. Numbers dont lie

I head that 7 8 9 one time but I found out THAT was a lie!! 8 has always been there!! No one 8 it? (frank)ing numbers!

I'd rather have one year of Semin at 7 million than two years of Hemsky at 10 million total. It's an easy call.

How can you thank me again, when I did not receive a thanks a first time?

but first things first...if you didn't know the definition of trolling how did you expect to make an informed decision of if something was trolling or not?

Player A
502GP 194G 216A .82PPG +57

Player B
469GP 197G 211A .86PPG +65

Player A is Zach Parise. Player B is Alexander Semin.

Draw your own conclusions.

- synthetic150

My conclusion is semin doesn't have half the two way game parise does.

I know people say our management team is doing nothing but we improved at forward with nail and will continue to improve with the development of the young core already there...we added schultz(basically another #1 pick for free)...im actually glad our management is staying away from the big contracts out there and saving cap for when all our kids need raises...

Drafting number one is not doing anything, the core improving is not from managemnt but from coaching and the players themselves. Shultz was basically a gimme.

So what again has your management doing?

Man are you serious? The hurricanes with make the playoffs this year well the oilers will likely get another top 5 pick.

Carolina has something that the oilers don't have at all, a goalie who could stop the puck. Cam ward is one of the elite young goaltenders in the league and oilers have none.

With an improved offense at has NHL experience of e.staal,j.staal,j.skinner,a.semin. This team is bound for the playoffs.

Oilers badly need young damn but instead at the draft you add to a offensive talent pool that possibly can not afford 3 years down the road.

Oilers are at least 2-3 years away from top 8

Easy, the first words of the post were " Thanks for the clarification. " Upon reading that, you were thanked. You were then thanked a second time at the end of the post.

Secondly, I didn't expect to make a decision on if something was trolling or not. That's why I asked the question in the first place. I always see people crying " troll " and wanted to know what it was so I don't offend anyone by doing it. I honestly wouldn't have expected hockey fans to be so thin skinned. That's not a dig at anyone, I'm just genuinely surprised by it.
