Well, they stay with Mrs. Santa. I get them on the weekends.

It's the Friday before Christmas. The last non-PPV Oilers game until Santa pops by, stealing my milk and my cookies. Four sleeps until the birth of the eight pound, six ounce Baby Jesus. What better way to celebrate than with video of some Filipino convicts dancing to a song best suited for Halloween? Joy To The World!!!



Guess what happened to me last night? Shawn Horcoff got mad at me. But not just any Shawn Horcoff. A werewolf-vampire Shawn Horcoff. With thick, bushy sideburns. Who could fly. He was choked. Felt I disrespected him on this site. And just as I was saying, "no, no, Shawn, we love you on Battle of Alberta!"...I woke up. So Werewolf-Vampire Shawn, wherever you are, we love you. I love you. Don't come howl at me tonight, please. Or try and bite me and make me listen to Air Supply. Please. I just want to sleep.

Not much else to say, really. We need to win? Yes, we need to win. Myself, as long as I get to watch the FF, I'm copasetic.

Prediction:
The Foulest Stench Is In The Air
The Funk Of Forty Thousand Underwear
And Grizzly Dudes From Every Wing
Are Closing In To Seal A Win
And Though They Fight To Stay Alive
Their Whole Bench Starts To Shiver
For No Mere Devil Can Resist
The Horcoff Of The Oilers


That was awful. 3-2, Oilers.

"OH MY GOD, THAT'S A DUDE!"

My girlfriend's exact words. Made my night. I'd really like to know what happens to that sweetheart at the end of the video, myself.
 


The things you find on the interweb.

One of the strangest that I have seen.
 


Black Dog is 40!

Oh, and happy to report no attacks from Werewolf-Vampire Shawn last night. Thank goodness. I wasn't joking at all. I had that dream. Terrifying.
 


I had a dream about Natalie Portman a couple of nights ago. Also terrifying but just because I thought my heart was going to explode.
 


There's also a Mambo #5 from the same bunch of convicts. I haven't seen it though.

And yes, the adapted Thriller lyrics were a bit... questionable. But really what rhymes with Horcoff... other than Scorcoff?
 


erm... yes I realize now that there was no attempt to rhyme Horcoff. But I just wanted an excuse to say Scorcoff.
 


And yes, the adapted Thriller lyrics were a bit... questionable.

Oh, they were atrocious. No doubt about it. But I'm exhausted from Christmas stress. I just want to drink my spiked egg nog and be left alone.
 


So, should we start a pool on when Souray gets hurt next?
 


Wow. That's...wow.

BTW...I'm down for that Souray pool. I'll take the day after the trade deadline.
 


What about a pool for the next time Mr. Glass gets hurt? Count on it!

Ok. Got it down. I should make up a grid.
 


The L Column is in. I'm starting to like MacT less and less each day.

god's punishment for your continued non support of his prodigal son mactavish...you will win the safeway score and win...on a 5 goal night by stortini...
 


I noticed this picture in TSN's preview of the game tonight. It's such a depressing image.
 


Oilers webpage:

“It’s just a cycle we’re in as a team. We want to continue to have an eye on developing our young guys. Zack has been out a number of games now and we have to make a decision on him. We’ve got to get him back in or get him down to the minors and playing,” said MacTavish, adding he’s been impressed with Stortini’s work ethic over the past few weeks.

Me rolling eyes and making gag sign with finger.
 


Whoa. Roli is out with the flu. Oilers signed Aaron Sorochan, who plays for the Golden Bears. That's a nice Christmas treat fro the kid. Good for him. Plus, I can use all my West Wing jokes that I normally save for Bears games.
 


I remember the first Hitmen game I went to in about ten years was against Lethbridge in the first round of the playoffs. It went all the way out to double OT before Calgary won it. Significance? Sorochan was the goalie of record for the Hurricanes that night.

Doesn't this sort of thing remind you of the stories of the old days when they'd have a spare goalie waiting in the stands for someone to go down with some horrific injury? I think the last time this happened was several years ago when the Canucks brought in some poor kid from UBC and he got perforated in relief. Can't remember the details, mind you. I'm assuming this was done because they couldn't get JDD onto Mass. Transit in time?

That would be my guess. Roli was probably a late scratch. It was great seeing Sorochan out there with his Bears helmet on. Green and Gold, baby!
 


He really is uPitquitous. He saves the goal at one end, pushes the puck up to Hemsky, and then pots the rebound for the first goal. And I don't think he even broke a sweat.
 


Do we have a coach?
 


Smid, Smid, Smid. Terrible.
 


As Morley was kind enough to point out, that's the third time in the last few home games that the Oil have given up two goals in less than a minute in the third periodn (Blues, Pens and now Devils). Thanks MacT.
 


And as soon as the Oilers lose, the Flames go ahead on the Stars. Why, Santa, why???
