Oilers fans all upset about Hall and RNH...

I would take Hall over a couple guys on the U24 and I think he will be there when the roster is finalized.

RNH? no.

At some point Oilers fans really need to understand the concept of ALL the players being accountable for a team that is that bad for that long.

What I hate the most about that (frank)er is that whenever he is on TSN radio, he tries to turn every topic into some grandiose narrative. His smug and stupid voice make me want to reach through my dashboard and rip his (frank)ing nose off - although that would just make his talking even more dumb

When Naylor and him used to do the drive home and would have Bobby Mac on there, you could tell that everything he asked Bob just irked him. You could hear the patience being exhibited in Bobby Mac's voice.

Its a gimmick. Hes a media heel. And loves it.

I knew the infamous hotdog story, but not the rest of it. Who called him on it?

IIRC, it was some bloggers.

Hall is too old to play on the North American team.

Edit:Those players must be 23 or under as of Oct. 1, 2016 (i.e., must have a date of birth on or after Oct. 2, 1992) and will be available for selection exclusively by Team North America.

He's worked for the Toronto Sun for 30 some odd years. Makes sense to me.

I assumed he wasn't, judging by the comments?

Are mitch the female dog and silly willy gonna make any teams?

This exposes the lie: http://torontoist.com/201...eve-simmons-is-the-worst/

"Despite Simmons’ claims, no one working the four hot dog stands at Front and John who Torontoist spoke to on Tuesday can recall ever selling street meat to the star forward....

....The good people at SB Nation’s Pension Plan Puppets did some digging and based on the skyline visible from Kessel’s apartment in footage from HBO’s 24/7: Leafs/Red Wings as well as a simple look in the phonebook, it seems he lived in a condo close to Bay and College.

In order to obtain a hot dog at Front and John from his home—and we are not sure what makes hot dogs at this location, which is by the Rogers Centre and not Air Canada Centre, special—Kessel would’ve had to walk 2.5 kilometres. From the Air Canada Centre, the distance is 1 kilometre, and from the Leafs practice facility in Etobicoke, it is 13.1 kilometres."

Maybe willy for team sweden (who are pretty deep on forward talent) but I don't see Mitch cracking the young guns.

...and the Simmons will come out this summer and say "Source tells me Stamkos will sign in Toronto" and everyone will rejoice.

I'll wait to hear it from a journalist. Columnists don't have sources.

Oh there was one time Dreger was on and they were talking about Jeff O'Neil, and Dreger says O'Neil' has mastered the art of not needing more than 30 seconds to make his point, and that many in the industry go on too long and talk too much and aren't very good at what they do (he manages to do that in 30 seconds too). Simmons responds, and whether he meant to or not, he goes on for a full 2 minutes to say something that should've taken 30 seconds. And all I'm thinking while I'm listening is jesus simmons, he's referring to you you stupid (frank).

Apparently Rachel Notley feels the same way.
