Risky Business: Sharks are circling

I feel like I’m repeating myself over and over lately, but the Edmonton Oilers have got another huge game coming up against the San Jose Sharks and I personally feel that it’s one they should win. Not only are the Sharks having a rough year — they’re borderline terrible, in my opinion — but we’re getting to a point in the season where we can’t be giving up freebies to teams that we should beat more often than not. What will that mean for our wallets? We shall see. We be bettin’, fam!

Can I be honest here for a second? I’m still annoyed about the fact that the Oilers not only lost this game to Dallas but that it happened in regulation. They were five and a half minutes away from locking in a huge win, but the opportunity was lost because of some shoddy play and sloppy decisions.

The last time the Oilers played the Sharks, the boys were able to shut San Jose out on home ice and I’m truly hoping for a repeat performance here tonight. That’s not to say that I expect a shutout, but I certainly do expect that the Oilers do not play down to their competition again, which is a problem that’s starting to give me PTSD as the years go along.
