what stood out to me last night was how dominant our D was compared to Edmonton.  Almost no mistakes, while Benning looked like Bambi out there.   And team speed.  Our guys made Edmonton look like they were standing still.   Our skill level is hard to beat.   When our guys are skating, not a lot of teams can keep up the pace.

I was very skeptical of the Kulikov signing but him and Myers are a really good combo

If there was some way to pair Poolman with Buff instead of Chiarot...

I think the Browns are a perfect example of what a true fan is. I respect all the loyal Brown fans who have hung with them so far. 

Here's wishing a better 2018 for Brown fans. :)

 

I think the Bomber fanbase is just as good. We have hung in there with decent crowds during some hideous years the past decade. We supported the Bombers better than the spoiled & entitled fans in Edmonton & Calgary as well as the disinterested fanbases in Vancouver & Toronto. Ottawa lost their teams twice during that time & Hamilton couldn't draw more than 15,000 for average attendance until they moved to THF.

Hard to feel bad for Oilers. An embarrassment of riches for years and poor management.  You always want to have a McDavid but then you have to pay him. 

Jets won Laine but everyone else was good scouting and good development.  Good contracts too, leaving room for everyone. 

@kelownabomberfan it’s funny how D was so much better with is missing two of the top four. 

I’ll say this, Trouba has no excuses now.

I didn't say that they are better without Enstrom and Buff, I just said that they were much better than Edmonton's D.  Watching our guys walk around their D consistently was amazing to watch.  We should have won that game 10 - 0.  Can't believe Armia missed the net on that feed from Lowry, and that Ehlers rush should have resulted in a goal too.

Biggest difference is that Talbot was standing on his head last year - this let the Oilers weather a few storms...  basically you could flip the Jets-Oilers seasons between last year and this year
