I assume you're the real JustKelli and not your alter ego.
Welcome back milady, we all missed you. Good luck to your rehabilitation. It will be a long, slow and maybe sometimes painful process, but at the end you'll be better than ever. Until then enjoy your team's games and the friendly company here.

Here's a small gift for you the cheer up your day. Calgary Flames ice crew girls. These are old photos from 2011, but I'm sure the current members of the crew are not just beautiful, but very skilled and useful too.

My Flames suck and they lost 3-1 in SJ last night. If my guys don't bring me a win soon I'm jumping ship and bringing out my Oilers jersey's lol. Since trading Smith to Edmonton no one can get a puck past him. Your Blackhawks suck even more... but in their defense they have only played 3 games and 1 was an OT loss compared to the Jets that played 7 already. |

What does this mean exactly???
You can't play hockey in the future or you just have to give up the goalie position??? Hopefully everything will be OK and you can enjoy this great sport again soon. I'm happy Chicago could break Edmonton's undefeated streak. I didn't see the boxscore and the statistics yet, but it's a great win against a very good team. Although I think the Oilers start is a bit misleading, because they had to come from behind every game and that's not a good sign for the long run. Your former player James Neal is sensational so far, he already has eight goals in six games. I know it's still very early, but the following teams are already in big trouble. Dallas, New Jersey, Minnesota and Los Angeles. NJ is horrendous, they can't score goals and their big acquisitions are invisible in the early going. Devan Dubnyk and Jonathan Quick are both ridiculously bad and their backups are not much better. I'm sure Bruce Boudreau's days are numbered in Minneapolis, the terrible start will be a good reason for new GM Billy Guerin to fire him and bring in his own guy.

No more hockey, that dream is done.
William used to always tell me that the Kings were going to do the same thing to Quick as they did to Hrudey, they play them to death and don't develop their goalies for the eventuality that they need new blood in goal and that is coming true now with Jonathan like it did with Kelly. Btw I talk to Kelly often, he works for Sportsnet and Hockey night in Canada as a broadcaster. New Jersey's +/- stats are brutal. There are 3 players with 2 goals and not much else. Severson is -8. PK has 2 assists so far but got 10 minutes penalties against Buffalo a while back. Yes they suck lol. Coming from behind is fun hockey to watch and shows they can dig deep when needed but yes they need to work on getting leads so they can play their own game. Last year Calgary were called the comeback kids and that worked well for them until they ran out of gas in the playoffs. I don't normally talk smack about teams until 25 games into the season but my guys need to set their shit together too. A lot of teams are slow out of the gate including the Lightning. Oilers accept blame as they lose perfect record in defeat to Blackhawks Mark Spector*|*@sportsnetspecOctober 15, 2019, 12:37 AM CHICAGO — If it is true what they say, that an athlete learns more from losing than from winning, then by extension do we learn more about the athlete after a loss than we do after a win? On a night when the Edmonton Oilers watched their perfect 5-0 record go down at the hands of some smooth goaltending and a sheet of the choppiest ice this side of Anaheim, there were plenty of chances to simply say, “Thems the breaks. You’re not going to go 82-0.” So, how did the Oilers handle a 3-1 loss in Chicago on Monday? They looked squarely in the mirror, and assigned the blame exactly where a fan should hope. “We didn’t play well enough to win at all,” said captain Connor McDavid. “We gave pucks away, we gave them chances and Smitty held us in the game all night.” Assistant captain Darnell Nurse had a rough night, like his team, but looked up at a scoreboard that read 2-1 for the Chicago Blackhawks*with 2:11 to play. They were close, right? “We weren’t good enough,” he said. “The mistakes we made, we know we can clean those up, and how to clean them up. Let’s get back to basics going back home. We can’t dwell on it. It’s a long, long season.” Perhaps the best review, however, came from the game’s third star, goaltender Mike Smith. The former Calgary Flame was the only reason this wasn’t a 4-1 or 5-1 smoker, but when it was done he wasn’t looking for credit on a 32-save night. Instead, he was taking the rap for Chicago’s second goal, a weird “change-up” by Alexander Nylander that appeared to slow down abruptly as it slid on the ice, scoring far side on Smith. “In close games you can’t make mistakes that are going to cost your team the opportunity to stay in it,” Smith answered on the first question asked post-game, a query that had nothing to do with the goal he was describing. “Just an honest mistake there. I thought the puck was moving faster than it was and got out of my net, and by the time I realized it wasn’t getting to me, I was in trouble. We go back and get a powerplay goal, and that turns into a pretty big mistake. You’re disappointed in yourself. You’ve let the team down.” Despite his strong stat line, Smith feels like he let the team down. That would be exactly what you want to hear from your goalie — even if it is a tad hyperbolic — and it’s the same sentiment that carried the day when Smith let in two own-goals versus the Los Angeles Kings earlier this month, and not a single teammate laid any blame in his crease. The lesson here is plain: every team is going to lose. It’s how you act when you do lose that is the tell. For what it’s worth, the Oilers passed the test on loss No. 1. Now, they’ll try to put some distance between this viewing, and the way they act after loss No. 3, 4 or 5. “Don’t lose two — we’ll start with that,” said Smith. “Go home, have a day with the family on (Tuesday), then come back ready for the next game.” Chicago hadn’t won a game yet this season, and Edmonton hadn’t lost one. Everything had gone in for the Oilers thus far, but against goalie Corey Crawford almost nothing could light the United Centre lamp, as at least three Oilers found themselves in alone over the course of the opening period to no avail. It just wasn’t happening for the Oilers’ top players Monday. Leon Draisaitl, who has been their best player through five games, was thwarted on a couple of early chances and never quite found his passing game. McDavid had flashes, but also gave some pucks away, including on the 2-0 goal. When you have the puck all night, those things are going to happen. Neal scored his eighth of the young season and sixth on the powerplay, drawing the Oilers to within a goal with 131 ticks left on the clock. But a team that had come back to win five times after trailing in every game — an NHL record to open a season — just couldn’t roll boxcars in Chicago. While Neal becomes the first player to score six power play goals in his team’s first six games since Dino Ciccarelli in 1986-87, the Oilers will shake this one off, have a day off Tuesday, then face the Philadelphia Flyers and Detroit Red Wings at home this week before a two-game roadie through Winnipeg and Minnesota. “We’ve set a standard how we need to play. If we play to those standards every night, we’ll have a chance to win every night,” said head coach Dave Tippett. “When we win games, we look at what went right and what went wrong. We’ll look at tonight and we’ll look at what went right, and some things we have to do better.” Tippett is a lifetime hockey man, and was as unswayed by the 5-0 start as he was by the eventuality of this first loss. “They were a hard team tonight. This homestand was big for them and they have to put some wins together,” he said of the Blackhawks. “There is lots to build on for our team. “You’ve got to find ways to win. We just didn’t do it tonight.” |
