NHL Playoffs 2006: Round II

[Arnwyn]

Most Winnipeggers grew up HATING the Oilers, and many of us aren't going to change now.

You'd be surprised. As with every other good Jets fan, I was a big-time Oilers hatah. But those times are over - I'd say most of us have long since moved on.

Go Oilers!

the end result is like a great roller coaster ride ending with a sudden and unannounced punch

LostSoul, it sounds like you're being paged.

Hey Arnwyn, do you post over at CM? I can respond much more eloquently over there.

I'd say you must be younger then me, because most of my local peers agree with my outlook, at least where I roll.

Go Oilers!

The more Canadians that support the team, the better. And I still believe my team can win, as long as they play a better overall game. They can't rely on the goalies to win the games for them.

Oilers in 6.

Go Oilers Go!

No, I do not (nor will I).

Quite likely - I'm 30. (Ahh... Though I do remember the days when we all chanted "Gretzky sucks! Gretzky sucks!" And my best memory is attending the final winning Jets game [ie. the second-last game] - against Detroit in the playoffs. Woo!)

You're missing out on lots of fun.

Not that big a difference, I'm 33.

Although I live in Winnipeg and grew up a Jets(34 years old myself) fan with the Oilers hate I am pulling for the Oilers. I may not like them but they are a Canadian team and I want to see a Canadian team win the cup.

I guess it's just your particular peer group, then!

I have to say I think the Oilers chances have been crushed to near non-exsistance. Roloson is a top flight goal tender - neither of his back ups are near his level and the Oilers need that kind of support in the net. It is a shame really but I think this could be a short series with Carolina on top in 5.

Game 2 is tonight!

I still believe in my team!

Go Oilers Go!
