Long live the Yamamoto Era.
And the last 20 years of hearing that the oilers were going to up and coming with so many high draft picks may finnaly be happening!
Haha, something you'd never hear from a proper Oilers fan. Give us 8 more superstars and I'm still making plans for the season to be over by December

Down south here they must be extra optimistic. I swear every offseason for the last decade I have got the champagne poppin talk right after the draft.
100% though, I am hoping so bad for a playoff battle of Alberta it has been far far far to long. And there is already such tension between the teams, it would be great!
Oooooh, are you in Calgary? If so, samesies. I imagine my kin need to project a certain amount of false optimism in order to maintain sanity. That and Edmonton has a lot of really obnoxious fans, for realz. A battle of Alberta would be the best hockey we've seen in over a decade!

2 hours south of you, just outside Lethbridge, but I did grow up in the home of the dome until university.

Not NHL related, but hockey related. Liiga got cancelled as well, which sucks for SaiPa fans especially, because Ville Koho, who played in the club for 18,5 years and was the captain for 12 never got to play his final home game. The club organized him a night at the rink without fans and released some photos, I think this one tells the whole story
Thats tough. Ive been also readimg how it sucks for ncaa players of all sports that are seniors and wont get to out with final.tournaments. here is hoping they grant execeptions.
Maybe he will play another year, if not im sure they will do it up right for him next year.

He said that he would play one more year if he could but sadly he can't, lower back + calf issues.
