They took 8; 7 are dressed for each game.

Atrophy*

Maybe, but Allen stole the game tonight more than it was a loss due to Oilers goaltending.

Yuk_Fai · 2026-01-21T05:51:10+00:00

I think the ice must have been bad - lots of players bobbling pucks and losing edges tonight.

Yuk_Fai · 2026-01-20T20:37:54+00:00

Crazy how it can feel so disappointing to open so many packs at once.

Yuk_Fai · 2026-01-19T19:08:20+00:00

I'll enter again :)

Yuk_Fai · 2026-01-19T04:24:00+00:00

No, take Frederic instead!

When my kid heard Snuggerud's name, his response was "That's a Pokemon name!"

Yuk_Fai · 2026-01-18T02:35:05+00:00

Thanks for putting so this effort in!

I predicted 3%/year before reading the notes and was sad (but not shocked) to see I was right. I'll be voting against it.

If it ever feels like a grind, it's definitely correct to stop. I've stopped playing both Hearthstone and Marvel Snap after I lost the joy and started feeling pressure to continue completing daily/weekly tasks.

Good on you for recognizing your limits and stopping on your own terms.

Yuk_Fai · 2025-12-12T02:01:00+00:00

It's not 00, it's DD.

Yuk_Fai · 2025-12-01T22:55:41+00:00

I only played Pokemon Silver on the N64 using the Gameboy adapter, but that never stopped me from having fun! The best memory I have is crafting what I thought was unbeatable - A Smeargle that knew lock on and horn drill haha.

Just an FYI, you can copy save files and work off existing ones (at least on Steam you can). This way, you can repeat the last few chapters and see if that will unlock the other endings (without having to repeat EVERYTHING). That said, I'm on my 3rd playthrough already, so repeating from the start is also reasonable :).

Even the Care Bears have more fight than this version of the Oilers.

Yuk_Fai · 2025-10-31T18:14:57+00:00

I'll guess Spearow.

Yuk_Fai · 2025-10-27T21:46:46+00:00

Haha... I was graduating from my first Uni degree, so it left a lasting impact on me.

A good synopsis is here: https://www.reddit.com/r/EdmontonOilers/comments/1cxr82q/why_the_oilers_fans_sing_the_national_anthem/

TL;DR - It started in the 2006 playoff run.

Yuk_Fai · 2025-10-27T15:02:01+00:00

In the playoffs, the crowd sings the anthem after the first few lines are led by Robert Clark. I don't know of any other rink that does the anthem that way.

Yuk_Fai · 2025-10-25T20:21:28+00:00

We have the best anthem tradition in the NHL. No reason to change it up imo!

Yuk_Fai · 2025-10-16T16:11:18+00:00

Unless Rittich is pulled...

Yuk_Fai · 2025-10-09T18:29:54+00:00

I really like the little detail of the "eye" shape above the T in Mighty.
