Is the 'best top 9 in the nhl' a joke I am missing. I'm seeing it a lot, even 'by far' best top 9 in nhl. Asking for a friend

I get we're all homers to some degree, but how does banking on bounceback years from 3 of your 'stars' (Petey, Bo, Brock) and having two largely unproven Russians equal a formidable top 9 deserving of that kind of praise? Mix in a Pearson who likely takes another step back ... I just don't see where all this bravado is coming from. I'm confident Miller will be excellent, Garland will be good and Mikey will be fast ... that's the extent of my bankable bets.

Even the crows.

EP has a bit of a mean streak to him and has a defensive game Oilers fans wish McDavid had.

He does? Can you provide an example?

That time he fought Miller in the dressing room.

I’m guessing it’s related to practice today, but I haven’t actually seen anything so I’m only guessing.

It was first brought up by Lunkhead, more and more fans are jumping on the wagon now.
It’s a better top 9 than last year, so there’s hope.

There was his death stare he did that time in his rookie season. Nucker labeled him "Alpha" because of that... or was it the unicycle and juggling... one or the other.

The most recent but it was Petey's thing in his rookie season.



Nothing says "Alpha" like ankle high socks and tights.

Cool, I totally missed that. I have so much more respect for him now.

lol.
Ok/ i'm really trying here.
Currently on track 1 and it's fukin 8 mins long...
It's pretty busy.
I hate the loud keys and wanky solo's.


jfc.
Track 2 is somehow worse.
Is this a soundtrack to a kids cartoon?

Ok.
Track 3 is actually good.
Finally. I like the harmonies.
I almost didn't make it.

Spoke too soon.
Track 5 is the epitome of horrible art rock.
Turns out Styx is the only prog rock band i like. And Rush i guess.
