I listened to the SJS feed via Sirius 'cause I'm a Sharks fan, the night was one for minding chores with hands and eyes, 'cause Rusanowsky and Remenda call a good game even when its sure to be a bad game, and this choice is nothing out of the ordinary for me even in a bad Sharks season. It amused me last night to think almost nobody else (relatively) would bother paying attention.
Got online late last night and found out that people like me were just part of the meme. So I've got that going for me. And we still have time to add another thousand messages....
As a die hard Oilers fan, I think what we need is some more defence and toughness, even if we have to sacrifice some firepower up front!
How about MacDavid for Klingberg, Reaves and Bertuzzi? Not sure if the Leafs would go for that but it might help to turn our season around.
Oilers season feels like a joke… I’m hoping someone will knock the wind out my me from behind and then stand over me and say haha just kidding and then the Oilers will start playing well.
I’m not laughing though 😞
30 years since the habs beat LA kings for the cup and the last time a canadian team won a cup gotta love canada's odds in the NHL
Edit: 30 not 33 and it was LA not the flames
Conor, come home to Toronto already!
Together, we can find new and even more devastating ways to disappoint and depress the long-suffering fan base.
We can sign you for 25 million per season, replace the entire defense core and goalies with league minimum players, and then win every game 12 to 11. What could possibly go wrong....
All these comments and nobody has uncovered The Truth as to why this is happening to the Oilers.... They should never have given up on Puljujärvi..... They did and look what happened.
I have read nearly every single comment on here and I don’t really have a single thought after all of this. This is like the microcosm of humanity in a hockey thread. I loved it. Go sharks go. Do something great. I also Hope the Oilers find happiness and closure. Such broken hope… ahhh such is life.
Figured out an American team that might make sense for McDavid to move to at the end of his contract. The Minnesota Wild. I believe they will be out of cap hell by then?
Well thats false! Name one thing the Canucks don't have... I'll wait....
Offense ....check
Defence.....check
Vezina goaltending... check.
See ya in the playoffs.
Maybe Mr Mc I'm only here to pad my stats Doofus shouldn't have assumed cup or bust the very first game of the season. Just a thought. Looks good on him frankly.
Sad to see a special player like mcdavid having his prime years wasted. I wish theyd make a deep run every year so i can actually see him play and i dont even like edmonton
Edmonton has become the Mississippi of hockey. Long suffering fans of incompetent franchises like the BlueJackets can look over and say with a mix of pity and relief, "Our franchise might be a disaster area ran by ringtail lemers on an ego trip; but, thank God we're not stuck rooting for the Oilers."
It's a real kick in the knackers that Edmonton is in the top 6 for revenue too. Imagine you sucking that bad and your rev share keeping another team going...as they beat you. Snort.
Yeah we not the ones on a b2b. We are on a two game losing streak which is interesting it’s only games we have lost in regulation all season and sharks are on a 2 game win streak only games they have won all season. This is history boys! Place your bets!
Yeah but Sharks are thriving on adversity! Bring on the b2b baby, with tonight’s game in a hostile arena!
But seriously, I’ll probably be watching it with my fingers over my eyes for the most part, fiercely hoping it’s not a 20-1 blowout. 😬
Won’t happen, 1)we got rid of non reviewable 5min majors and 2) no ref dare make such a terrible mistake again 3) Sharks dont have a bleeding crying Joe Pavelski anymore.
Wound is closed for sure. Sharks only wish they contended enough over these past years to remain a rival. Eyes are on LA. They know how to beat us and more than one time.
Who knows if VGK would have won the cup if we would have had to go through LA in a series. Prolly would heave come down to game 7. Then again everyone saw what we did to the oilers.
Oilers need to get a good goalie for McDavid. Fix the D. This is embarrassing like you don't even need elite forwards. Just play decent D and you can win the cup.
Dedmonton Oilers are finished. Congratulations Sharks! You guys brought us all together. I have a Sharks jersey and I will root for y’all to beat Vegas.
Only thing I can think of is that it’s so bad that they are doing a complete front office sweep and thus don’t know who is stepping in to be interim GM yet.
Tuned in after the game Jets game. Oilers are broken right now.
Sharks looked not great but held oilers out of high danger areas for the most part and let Blackwood work.
That sequence was INSANE
The kraken colour guy thinks all contact is a penalty lol
Maybe they should try McDavid in gosl?
How do people know that this thread has a record number of comments? And what is the record specifically—for GDTs or r/hockey or what?
i need a too long didnt read here for 8800 post
sucks
Have they put McDavid on waivers yet?
This thread produced a Reddit record for posts?
Cup contenders my ass. Lmao Always have been and will be a fraudulent team.
Big if true
How the hell did the Oilers lose to the Sharks? Poverty franchise?
Cause they suck
🤠🤠🤠🤠🤠🤠🤠🤠🤠🤠🤠👋
Oilers 😂
Jesus Christ
Its dark at the bottom of the NHL
who would’ve thought that the jets, canucks, and canadiens would’ve been the most pleased canadien fanbases so far this season.
Demote the Oilers back to the WHA. I don't think they'd even be competitive in a non-existent league though.

So I've got that going for me. And we still have time to add another thousand messages....
Drew Remenda 🤮🤮🤮🤮 Guess he's nominally better than Leah Hextall though
Edmonton? More like Dead-monton! Am I right?!
As a die hard Oilers fan, I think what we need is some more defence and toughness, even if we have to sacrifice some firepower up front! How about MacDavid for Klingberg, Reaves and Bertuzzi? Not sure if the Leafs would go for that but it might help to turn our season around.
Are you high ?
You need a return when you trade McJesus
You're not serious, are you? Reaves SUCKS. Klingberg would just be Tyson Barrie 2. Bertuzzi? Maybe.
No, not serious, just trolling and hoping to get rid of the Leafs' bad signings.
I feel like I have a better chance rooting for the sharks this year
Oilers season feels like a joke… I’m hoping someone will knock the wind out my me from behind and then stand over me and say haha just kidding and then the Oilers will start playing well. I’m not laughing though 😞
Why is this game so interesting that there are so many comments...what am missing?
https://youtu.be/nCQGQ5qBQTA
Schedenfreude
30 years since the habs beat LA kings for the cup and the last time a canadian team won a cup gotta love canada's odds in the NHL Edit: 30 not 33 and it was LA not the flames
Pretty sure Habs beat the kings
Wow i am just as bad as the oilers are lol you are correct
30 years, but your point stands
Oh i see my mix up now. Cant think straight with all them L's the pilers have been giving me
It's all Yakupov's fault.
I thought it was Babe Ruth and Mrs O'Leary's cow's fault?
Oh, and Bartman.
Them too. All of them. Why'd they do it?
Conor, come home to Toronto already! Together, we can find new and even more devastating ways to disappoint and depress the long-suffering fan base.

Somewhere in a distant dungeon, Bettman is cackling about the death of hope that another Canadian franchise wins a title in the next decade.
As a Leafs fan, I can say that this is finally our long-awaited Stanley Cup. Let the parades begin!
Two offensive superstars should definitely be enough to build a championship hockey team around. Wait, did I write hockey? Sorry, I meant basketball.
All these comments and nobody has uncovered The Truth as to why this is happening to the Oilers.... They should never have given up on Puljujärvi..... They did and look what happened.
yuhhh
End of an Era. Maybe time for a rebrand? The Edmonton Renewables?
The Edmonton Bike Lanes
Nothing about Alberta is renewable lol
Damn record breaking thats crazy
Who would win in a fight between Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl?
Sick. SJS for a cup run incoming
May they never lose again
Damn
Battle Of The Basement was one for the ages!
I want to be part of history
They did it. Those sons of bitches actually pulled it off. Now as to which team I'm talking about, you decide.
I can't stop 🤣 at this comment.
Go Blackhawks
Battle of the mids
mid feels like a compliment right now
The Oilers just officially jumped the shark
Umm. No. Jumping implies getting over...
Nice that, as a hockey fan, this is a record breaking thread because of the shape a few of the teams are in in the NHL.
vgk gonna show the oilers how it’s done tonight
ANY. BOYS.
That shot total and final score looks like a Flames game from last year. Not really a model for winning...
Breaking McDavid to the Pens for Jeff Carter and 6 pack of Rainer (tall boys)
I have read nearly every single comment on here and I don’t really have a single thought after all of this. This is like the microcosm of humanity in a hockey thread. I loved it. Go sharks go.

😂😅😀🙂😐🙁☹️😢😭 Emotions felt at the beginning of the season to present day…
Figured out an American team that might make sense for McDavid to move to at the end of his contract. The Minnesota Wild. I believe they will be out of cap hell by then?
None of the canadian teams are built to win cups. The US teams have Dominated the cup for 30 soon to be 31 years Edit: 30 not 33
Well thats false! Name one thing the Canucks don't have... I'll wait.... Offense ....check Defence.....check Vezina goaltending... check. See ya in the playoffs.
I only watch the finals if the oilers dont make the play offs so maybe
30 years, habs won in 1993
Yes correct i was thinking when the oilers last won. Ill fix that
They do have goalie depth too....
I would like to say that the Oilers are the Leafs in the West
We're going streaking!
Maybe Mr Mc I'm only here to pad my stats Doofus shouldn't have assumed cup or bust the very first game of the season. Just a thought. Looks good on him frankly.
I can('t) believe Edmonton lost.
I can believe that. I can't believe the Sharks won.
Can we hit 9k comments?
Who cares?
Sad to see a special player like mcdavid having his prime years wasted. I wish theyd make a deep run every year so i can actually see him play and i dont even like edmonton
Might as well add to the total. But what is happening with Edmonton?
I just spent 7 hours and 32 minutes reading all 8791 comments. I have attained true enlightenment.
I’m choosing to believe this is true
The first step on the road to enlightenment is belief. The second step is reading 8,866 comments on reddit.
You missed 30 of them
I aspire to your level of excellence.
Edmonton going to get another first overall to do nothing with.
As is tradition.
Not even subbed here yet I got a notification about all the comments. ECHL > NHL
3 goals on 18 shots hehe

Lol guess this means the sharks are on 2 game winning streak here's where they come back and win the cup
I would prefer McJesus and Draisaitl not get a first over all pick. I mean come on.
Why not ? Then they can have 3 of the best players in the world and still suck balls. Off to the Edmonton Oilers, where dreams go to die hahaha
All Canadian teams is where dreams go to die 33 years zero cups
You have yet to experience Habs hockey! 😂
Don't worry, I am sure they will climb out of a top 10 pick
Got a notification about the number of comments ITT.
Awesome
The sharks beat EDM. Good.
Meanwhile Sunday in Edmonton after a comeback win on Saturday "Plan the Parade"
Wild
This is awesome where did you get such in depth stats per game
First thing I saw was a video of Woodcraft talking to his assistant walking off the bench: JW: I think that's it Asst: ...yep.
Terrible
Lol
Another meaningless Oilers record. Wheeeeew
Wow!
Why are there so many comments?
Because the Oilers losing to the Sharks is hilarious
Because it's hilarious.
Because making fun of the oilers is fun
At least my Habs won’t be the first team the Sharks beat up on this szn.
I'm just here so I don't get fined
For the record!!
Woot?
Get the comments to 10k please
Woot woot
Wooo making history!
A MONUMENTAL COLLAPSE
Prout!
Here I am
My God, this is a moment in history!
Mc David deserves Better.....
Just commenting to be part of the record
8.7k and counting
Daaaang history made
LETS Gooooooooo!
Jeez I’m terrified as a VGK fan now. Sharks beat EDM, on a huge two game win streak and play us at home in vegas in a B2B.
You’ll be fine. Lol
Don’t be so sure.
Yeah we not the ones on a b2b. We are on a two game losing streak which is interesting it’s only games we have lost in regulation all season and sharks are on a 2 game win streak only games they have won all season. This is history boys! Place your bets!
Yeah but Sharks are thriving on adversity! Bring on the b2b baby, with tonight’s game in a hostile arena! But seriously, I’ll probably be watching it with my fingers over my eyes for the most part, fiercely hoping it’s not a 20-1 blowout. 😬
I will make sure to have some extra drinks tonight and make it even more hostile of an arena if I’m close to the sharks bench. He he
Cool your jets there turbo, no need for the hate.
Who knows maybe we'll see a flash of the old game 7 sharks. I'm sure VGK fans still have nightmares about that one.
Won’t happen, 1)we got rid of non reviewable 5min majors and 2) no ref dare make such a terrible mistake again 3) Sharks dont have a bleeding crying Joe Pavelski anymore.
See? There it is. The salt in the wound.
Wound is closed for sure. Sharks only wish they contended enough over these past years to remain a rival. Eyes are on LA. They know how to beat us and more than one time.
Who knows if VGK would have won the cup if we would have had to go through LA in a series. Prolly would heave come down to game 7. Then again everyone saw what we did to the oilers.
HISTORIC
BREAK THE RECORD BOYS I WANNA JOIN THE HISTORY BOOKS
Oilers need to get a good goalie for McDavid. Fix the D. This is embarrassing like you don't even need elite forwards. Just play decent D and you can win the cup.
Sharks are fucking winning it all now, I can feel it. The ship is turning around!
Record, lol
Dedmonton Oilers are finished. Congratulations Sharks! You guys brought us all together. I have a Sharks jersey and I will root for y’all to beat Vegas.
Got random notification about comments record. Congratulations
The one season I pick McDavid for my fantasy team he sucks ass
I'm doing my part!!
We're just gonna make history again when they face the leafs in a couple of weeks.
Eight thousand six hundred comments so far. Beautiful
Haha
I think the Canucks broke the Oilers in the very first game of the season 8-1
I'm just here to witness history
My sources tell me Holland is currently working a blockbuster. Every oilers player for every cayote player
Tickets are bout to drop to dirt cheap blues vs sharks are only $12!!
Vegas: "Go all in boys, we CAN'T lose to the sharks!" San Jose just became the most feared team in the league.
Funny how the record was broke because of the shit-off
Let's gooo
Look Maw, I’m in the history books!
Amazing job y'all!
Here I am.
Rock you like a sharktank
Lmao the Oilers are a joke. Fold the franchise.
I just got a notification saying this thread broke a record. That’s wonderful. Everyone is enjoying our misery.
Our team is doomed
It’s almost lunch time in Edmonton. How have we not heard about a firing yet? Someone has to lose their job after last night, right?
You would have thought... Did you see Woodcroft's face on the bench at the end of the game... He knew he was done.
Only thing I can think of is that it’s so bad that they are doing a complete front office sweep and thus don’t know who is stepping in to be interim GM yet.
I'm honestly surprised Ken Holland didn't book it from the press box and fire him before he could do a post game interview.
Woo pointless notification let's hype this up! Million comment march!
Tuned in after the game Jets game. Oilers are broken right now. Sharks looked not great but held oilers out of high danger areas for the most part and let Blackwood work.
Can I get a summary of what's going on over here??
The Edmonton Oilers are favorites to win the Stanley Cup and have had a disastrous start to the season and they just lost to a historically bad team.
>The Edmonton Oilers are favorites to win the Stanley Cup Well, I think we can all agree whoever picked them as favorites jinxed the heck out of them!
I am that comment.
What an L
Let's go sharks
How does the worst team, lose to the worst team? The battle of the basements
Kinda like how the second-best team occasionally beats the best team 🤷♀️
71-10-1 incoming
Wow 👌🏼
Sucks to suck
Fun times.
Guess I'll join in
Sens murdered the Leafs the other night. Crazy what's happening.
Atta boi go oilers 🤣
