Paras' two favourite quotes from the paper today:

"We killed ourselves. They didn't kill us."
-- Joe Thornton

"We have a core group of guys here who been in a lot of games where things haven't gone our way in the past, and we're sick of it."
-- Shawn Horcoff

Brimming with confidence indeed. As with last series, cerebrally it seems that the Oilers' chances are better than the coin toss, but the gut of the Oiler fan suggest that the third round is too perilous a precipice to envision. I do not mind my gut being proven wrong yet again.

At the least, I can hope for new colour commentary, though. Logically, with Ottawa out, any Oilers advancement would bring about the number-1 line, as it were, of commentary. I've been endeared somewhat to Jim Hughson (once you separate him from his beloved Canucks, you're left only with the sweet nostalgia of EA hockey games), but I cannot wait to get rid of Greg Millen. I realize that Harry Neale isn't exactly a godsend, and that I may be somewhat biased against Millen on account of my opinion of him as a glorious waste of space. But, I mean, he called Patrick Marleau "Hannan" five times in less than a minute. Even the home viewer figured out that Millen was talking out of his ass after the third "Hannan".

feel good win of the year boys
just BRIMMING with confidence

yeah, videogames suck LOLZ

Eric pretty weak when you consider my brother was actually at E3 trying out all the new systems. Looking at footage just doesn't seem to cut it.

Animals Have Problems Too:

What happens when you give me a Wacom and too much time.
