drafted Juolevi instead of Matthews....yeahhhh rrrrriiiiiight. Lets let this one sink in for a bit.
Ok Einstein would he have drafted Juolevi instead of Dubois, Poolparty or Laine ? I’m sure you would have. You’ve had had his back on this pick forever instead of admitting a mistake. Juolevi isn’t even in the top 12 of a redraft. Virtanen is not a first rounder despite that abortion of a post you made yesterday

How sad, Blobby now works under Botchford at the Codswallop Factory. :hmmm:

You've changed Blobby, do you now take back all of the following:

And wet farts at that.

Yet now you support The Botched One and his silly rumourmongering?? :crazy:

Nope I don’t like Crotchford. That said he’s no less credible than housepets McIntyre or Boosema.

Either way IF that’s true Elmer is an idiot. Dude tried to say Sbisa was better cuz he’s bigger. He was rightfully bitchslapped for that comment.

RoyalDude wrote: Sun Jan 21, 2018 4:17 pm what if the Canucks had the 1st overall pick fortunes of the Oilers and not cursed with the Perreault curse and had won the Matthews lottery with the similar 3rd best odds that the Oilers had when they won the McDavid lotto? Would the crew be enamored with Benning? More importantly, does Island Nucklehead not take into account the signifigance of "lotto luck"?
What if your dad had pulled out?

And I've addressed luck plenty. You just can't read.
Island Nucklehead wrote: Thu Aug 24, 2017 9:40 amExactly who is saying there is no luck involved? Pretty sure I said there was even more luck involved than that (luck in the lottery+ the quality of the draft year).
Island Nucklehead wrote: Tue Aug 22, 2017 11:11 am Luck has been involved in the Penguins success (Crosby lottery), the Hawks success (jumped 5 to 1 for Kane), the Maple leaves resurgence (20% shot at Matthews) and Edmonton is no different. I'm not sure what that adds to the discussion, other than to sound bitter/jealous about the recent lottery bounces going against Vancouver.
Island Nucklehead wrote: Sun Aug 20, 2017 9:18 am Not only is there luck involved in the draft lottery, but also in the draft year. The Oilers were terrible for some really putrid drafts, which meant they stayed terrible, until the good drafts came along.
Island Nucklehead wrote: Sat Apr 29, 2017 5:45 pm This wasn't a tanking team. It's a team with dreadful talent that could use some luck come ping-pong ball time one of these years. If we get that luck, things might progress faster. If we don't, we'll get used to Bill Daley's card flips.

So in short you'd still be pissing all over the Canucks bed had we won the lotto and drafted Matthews and you'd still be throwing bouquets at Chiarellis - Strome Oilers rebuild?

When you grow up and address an entire post you will be worthy of a response. This chickenshit hanging on one word is weak and I guess I shouldn’t expect much more from a guy who resides near “Hope”.

If this is what you retain from this I’d tell you to stop drinking rubbing alcohol and maybe huff it out of a rag

Today's CC postings is for the ages - Blobby quoting Bitchford. Unfuckingbelievable

Again - Bubbles gone on record as calling McPhee a genius for his work in Vegas but has no response for McPhees recent ravings over Sbisa all the while McPhee waives he good buddy Garrison and Nuckles good buddy Griffin Reinhart

Or perhaps YOU should wise up.

The only important word in your post was "IF"... yeah don't expect folks to indulge you in your WHAT IFs.

Admit it, you got your ass handed to you and now you're trying to save face.

Time to wake up and see how much damage your agenda has done to you, my dear friend.

YOU ARE NOW A BOTCHFORD SUPPORTER

I don't know whether to laugh or cry...

I’d probably be saying Benning was lucky his rebuild on the fly strategy was such a disaster. 8-)

Oh yeah! :lol:

Hey all I did was prove that you have derided The Botched One for years

... and now you suckle at his teet.

And the obvious motive: A G E N D A

You sold your soul for your anti-Benning agenda old pal. :(

The Canucks made the playoffs in Bennings first year, the second went off the rails during the retool on the fly, good intentions. What's wrong with the Oilers after the playoff run last season? Not Chiarellis fault?

So no McDavid in Edmonton the Oilers are a disaster? This is your Boi - Chiarelli we are talking about

Boeser? Demko? Pettersen? Dahlen? Tryamkin? 2nd for Baertschi? Shrinkaruk for Granlund? Gaudette? Lind? Gadjovich? 3rd and 7th for Lack? 2nd for Bieksa? Lockwood? Not bad rebuilding or whatever you want to label it
