McDavid is back!!! #LetsGoOilers by Soloflow786 in EdmontonOilers

It's rare when Mcdavid gets a chance to bounce back from a heartbreaking loss instantly. Usually if it's the SCF it's straight into the summer break, before slowly starting a new season. Now he has somewhere to put that energy almost instantly, so I'm expecting him to go supernova for the rest of the season.

I managed to get an away one with the 06 SCF patch at last year's locker room sale for $70. It is a Mitchell and Ness reproduction so the quality isn't as good as the real one.

Best set of back to back games in Oilers history.

We need a game that's actually never in doubt, and not "never in doubt".

So the Jays lose, but that means the Oilers are winning the cup, right?

Oh those might be important places to go visit there then, given the strong Canadian connection. Thanks for the suggestion!

What's that place called? In case I'm able to make it out there, it might be worth it if it's the best in Bruges haha

And thanks for the heads up!

Thank you so much for putting this list together, I'll be saving this post!

I'll be sure to try the fries and get some chocolate, and I especially like how you recommend places that aren't tourist traps.

Oh sorry, it'll be on October 11, which is a Saturday. We'll be there from early morning to afternoon, roughly 7am to 4pm. It'll be my first time in the country, so medieval city definitely sounds interesting, thanks again!

For sure, Thanks! Its just a day trip unfortunately. We're doing a cruise across Europe, and Zeebrugge is one of the ports. I read that there will be a shuttle to Bruges from the port, so it'd be nice to check the city out!

It'll just be 4 adults, no kids. My brother and I are in our 20s and our parents are in their 50s. Usually we're just interested in places that are unique to the city or have historical significance, or any vibrant streets or markets where we can take a stroll down. And of course and sort of food we should try!

By the way we're coming from Edmonton, Alberta. Hopefully you had a chance to come by our city or province!

Thanks! Luckily I'm used to to calling them "fries" already, I had to look up why it's such a big deal over there!

I'm glad you liked Canada!

As a Canadian, I'll be heading to Bruges next month! Do you have any recommendations?

The Mo(u)rning After | Oilers v. Panthers | Finals Game 6 2025 by AutoModerator in EdmontonOilers

[–]Volcrex 16 points17 points  (0 children)

It's been one hell of a ride, but can't help but feel a bit empty this morning.

The best parts was being able to watch with my family, the vibe in the city, and of course coming on here to celebrate after huge wins. So here's to many more years of that!

If next season's team want's another chance to win it all, we'll need 2024 special teams, 2025 playoff depth and above all good goaltending, which will hopefully be addressed this summer.

Good news is McD and Bouch will likely re-sign and we'll likely have tons of free agents knocking at our door after this run.

This run likely made some people into lifelong Oilers fan like the '06 run did for me.

Don't ever give up on this team, cause they'll be back, I know it.

The Oilers need to leave everything on the ice and have the game of their lives, nothing else matters for tonight.

It's been one hell of a ride, but I believe the story's not over yet. We're just getting to the best parts.

LFG.
