In this scenario you're splitting up Connor and Leon to center their own lines and stapling Podz to Leon's hip, yeah?

Close enough for me to declare a moral victory. Us Podkolzin-havers in fantasy are doing cartwheels right now.

There’s should be some sort of punishment if you lose to the 26-27 Flames. Like you have to wear brown from head to toe until another team loses and the curse is transferred.

One major difference with the Oilers depth guys this year is that they earn afraid to just fire pucks on net. Big, big change from years past.

Pickled beets from my garden (I had Golden and Chioggia beets in the same container so the mixed colors went coral) tossed in olive oil and chopped smoked almonds. I also will add some manchego or feta and leafy greens for a proper salad sometimes.

Big salute to my 6-year-old for having an upset tummy which meant I had to stay home with him instead of drive an hour each way on a Friday night to have dinner with people I've never even met before. Real solid team victory there.

That’s because he’d have like four a season that would go in the net but somehow that’s all anyone remembers and think that just happens twice a period with him because people are fucking idiots

Stormy put up this piece of paper at the game last night and at first I thought it was a meme but turns out it’s a political statement on Vancouver BC’s already ridiculously expensive housing market??? #Canes

STORMY NOT SOPHISTICATED ICE HOG, BUT EVEN STORMY KNOW:
THE ALLOWANCE OF FOREIGN INVESTORS IN METRO VANCOUVER MUST NOT ONLY BE MET WITH STEEP ANNUAL LEVIES IF PROPERTIES ARE LEFT UNATTENDED, ALONGSIDE BRITISH COLUMBIA'S 20% FOREIGN PURCHASE SURCHARGE, BUT THE 2027 EXPIRATION OF THE FEDERAL FOREIGN BUYER BAN REPRESENTS A FULCRUM POINT IN THE REAL ESTATE MARKET THAT COULD HAVE GENERATIONAL RAMIFICATIONS IF NOT REENACTED.
ALSO, OINK.

I wrote about Jim Bakker, whose parasocial style of grifter evangelism seemed freakish to mainstream society in the 80s and is now the machinery by which mainstream society operates

The Death and Afterlife of an American Con Man

Jim Bakker’s vision of the future came to pass. Just not in the way the disgraced televangelist imagined.

I have a hypothesis that the difference is Podkolzin. Leon makes everyone play better, but I don't think people realize how hard it is to find players that can keep up with the way McDavid sees the game.

Just because he's no longer an Oiler doesn't mean I'm giving up my "Nurse should be a left winger" stance.

Only twice (games 53-55 and 72-76) but the sentiment is absolutely right on.

38 goals (22 for, 16 against) through 4 games. Pace has slowed, but Jarry in net against the Sharks on Saturday has me pretty, pretty confident a new record is set this year.

Rhys Al-BOO-recht @rhysalbrecht.bsky.social · 08/10/2026

That's two very very good starts in a row for Devon Levi. Clearly the 1A for this team, and thank god the coaching staff seems to recognize that.

I saw a shove, but yeah, he seems like a guy that has a good sense of where the line is while also not being afraid to take a penalty.

Last couple of years, Bouchard was a reliable IQ test for fans. Now his brilliance is so fucking obvious, you’re basically a flat earther if you think he’s not incredible

It's weird to see the Oilers actually make adjustments going into the second period.

The 1917-18 Toronto Arenas scored 36 and let in 33, and you might say “Rhys there’s no way the Oilers can beat 69 combined goals in their first 6 games” but truly I don’t think there’s a team built more perfectly to challenge that assumption.

Rhys Al-BOO-recht @rhysalbrecht.bsky.social · 02/10/2026

The 79-80 Oilers saw 45 goals in the first 6 games of their season (23 for, 22 against. The 26-27 Oilers are at 27 after two games, and play the Kraken, Ducks, Sharks and Kings next. We could see a franchise record not just passed, but obliterated.

Embarrassed the hated Oilers two games straight yet only collected two points to keep the tank intact? Honestly kinda best case scenario.

i have decided that the oilers need a classical enigmatic russian to be the number one goaltender. enough of these western canuck prairie failsons. the requirement is for a traumaproof ruskie that is completely inscrutable & borderline insane - if he doesnt know a word of english thats even better
