My favorite is how Corsi haters come on twitter and preach that Corsi doesn't win games

Most logical people will acknowledge that it is not an be all end all stat. It's another stat/tool that is good for reviewing the past over long term, not one game.

If you get banned for it, it's not appropriate. You ll have to learn through process of elimination.

And they are bad that's why I don't take comfort on the "Oil Dominate" title bs because they played a team that's weaker and played the night before,not matter if it's game 1 or game 50.
- AlEx_OiL

still missing the point.

no one's content just to control play. we want to win. and we didn't. but this idea that we should always beat teams like calgary is ridiculous. every night is a dogfight. there are no easy victories. especially for a team like the oilers.

but we controlled the play and played fairly well overall. this isn't taking solace, it's a fact. it's a positive point considering the loss and something to build on.
we're going to play well and lose many games. as we're going to play poorly and win some. it's the nhl. this is how it works

when u havent made the playoffs in 8 years and it looks like they arent again this season . i can see their reasoning.
- Jurco_28


How about no finals appearances since 1967?

I understand us fans are up and down like the only toilet seat at Octoberfest, but a little perspective is a good thing.

There are no easy wins in the NHL.

If the Oilers play like they did last night they will win their share.

I think the fans in Edmonton jump on and off the bandwagon even more than Montreal and Toronto.

Let 10 games go by, see how things stand and then panic or plan the parade.

- Rang

don't u dare use a few of the posters ideas in here and try and paint the entire base with it

we've got some fans who understand how it works, and some who don't. that's the nature of a place like hockebuzz. there's no prerequisite to posting priveleges

That took a while. I like banter and am pretty lenient but some words should stay off the board.

good post.

and I think in the oilers case, even more so. if we don't play our A game, we're going to lose more often than not. against anybody.

we cant afford the few collapses or mediocre tending or we lose.
but we played well overall and controlled the play imo. this is a good thing and hopefully we build on it
