GDB Wrap Up: Rangers @ Oilers

So THAT went well… *smashes face on fork* Final Score: 5-0 Rangers

Last time the Oilers played the Rangers, Nail Yakupov scored the game winning goal with a minute left in the 3rd period. Kevin Quinn’s goal call was hilarious and we all had a good laugh about it. It was an exciting game. Fast forward to today and half the team is either out or apparently playing injured. The Rangers are still in a playoff spot and the Oilers have been spoilers since October. What a season (read 8 years) to be an Oilers fan! *sigh*

When Philip Larsen is taking shifts at forward, you know things are not going well. Midway through the 2nd period the Oilers had 6 shots for funk sakes. Frankly, it’s a struggle to think of anything positive about this game aside from the fact that the Rexall DJ was a running punchline on Twitter. When making fun of the shitacular music at Rexall is the best thing about a hockey game, you know things are bad. On the bright side, we’re all in this together.

Let’s wrap it up…

The Bright Side

We’re all one day closer to death
Making fun of the Rexall DJ was more entertaining than the actual game
Martin St. Louis didn’t score!
7 more games left in this life draining season
Not a single jersey was thrown on the ice

The Face Palmers

The music at Rexall is so bad Rangers media guys were commenting on it
Shorthanded goals number 6000 and 6001
Paying actual post tax dollars on Oilers tickets
The best power play of the night was when the Oilers took a penalty to make it 4 on 4
