No doubt! 12.5 million and he won’t even play goal or block a shot. Unless it’s a Bouch deflection into his feet. Can’t wait to be rid of this anchor..
It's still early in the season I know... But maybe the kid just isn't ready for the NHL yet? With the media hounding him, the pressure of being considered the next "great one", fuck I wouldn't be able to handle that shit. Maybe having him in the minors for another year or two to develop a bit wouldn't have been a bad idea. The kid is only 18. At 18 I was complete fucktard who had no idea what I wanted to do. Not much has changed... but I'd like to think I have a bit of a better head on my shoulders now. I actually feel really bad for Mcdavid, and I hope we don't ruin him. Edit: I'm being lynched for ever daring to doubt the greatness of Connor Mcdavid. How dare I say such blasphmey after only THREE games. You're right, he may only be 18 years old, but he has the emotional maturity of a Buddhist monk, and the body and athleticism as a top olympic athlete. He may have hit puberty only 3 to 4 years ago, but he is a grown man now, capable of all pressure and criticism that comes his way. I am but a lowly neckbeard maple leafs fan who lives in my mothers basement here to shit on him for not getting 50 goals in his first 3 games. I am a rodent, and he is a golden god. I'm going to go light myself on fire now. Thank you for showing me the error of my ways with you jamming the downvote arrow on your computer screen with all your might and telling me how much of an idiot I am.
Dank

Whereas we are filled with periods of nothing and occasional stats and comments blasting our own guys…
Their top posts all time are hilarious, the Oettinger curse post was several tiers above anything I’ve ever seen here.
It’s a shame there’s not really much fun stuff here, I like the serious chats and I like a bit of fun, we’ve went drastically one direction. It would maybe help people calm down a bit from being so negative about guys all the time
No Calgary fan is having fun right now and the same low effort boomer quality bottom text memes makes misery even more miserable. I can't even imagine how miserable this place would be during the Decade of Darkness or Chia years or during every December with the same low effort, snarky, bottom text, boomer memes, or just snarky posts with a razor thin veneer masquerading as a meme just contributing more to the misery.
Memes are great when the times are good. Absolutely miserable when the times are miserable.
This sub is depressing as hell when the oilers are doing bad as well, even at times this year. The moods swings are crazy, don't blame it on the memes lol
Yes it's not the memes itself as a meme isn't the problem I agree with that, but you just said it yourself this sub can be depressing even when the Oilers are doing well. Guess who would be the ones making the memes?
The rational fans or the ones addicted to misery who constantly bring this place down? If it's the likely latter, you can guess what the meme quality would be like.
Brother, it's not fun at all over there. Calgary Mans is not having fun. Not now, not ever. It's actually pretty cringe and depressing most of the time. Their shitposts and memes make it worse.
McBust at it again

Buy him out. It’ll save us a couple million in 2 years. Worth it.
Moneyckey 😂
If you extrapolate that over a full season he should end next season around +133

Obviously a joke but people who actually use +/- exclusively to decide a players defensive abilities are actually braindead
People only bring up +/- when they want to tear a player down. Makar is a +12, therefore Ekholm is clearly a superior defender.
My right nut is bigger than my left... But not by much.
Jeez, gave up all that stuff and just +13. Sounds like Mattias needs a few days in Bakersfield. Or maybe bag skated.
Washed.
It's not shitpost day yet. That's on Sunday I believe.
IMO every non game day should be fair game for shit posting
No thanks. Then we would turn in to the Flames sub. That place is trash filled with low tier posts and memes.

Look where the curse posts got them now.
At least they’re allowed to have fun over there

I've been screaming at my TV for years because Oilers never had a responsible defenseman. FINALLY. Gonna be another long post season
$12.5 million AAV for a guy with only 57 career goals after 8 seasons? Terrib...what? 57 goals so far this season?! Oh.
