Nation crashes -- Coyotes burn
December 23 2008 10:22AM
We aren't quite what happened yesterday on the nation. In speaking with our server support desk -- located in a very distant country staffed by very indifferent workers -- it seems it went like this: "something something too much data, something something bigger server needed something something crashed."
Allow us to translate this into English: old web hosting company soon to be canned even though it's Christmas.
As we understand it in talking with the new web developer -– who remains aces -– we are getting too big for your garden variety server. Translation: all the traffic of late has crashed our hosting company's server twice in the past week.
So onwards and upwards we go to our own dedicated server.
Real News
First, if it means the Oilers would win every night we would gladly close the OilersNation down forever, smash all our computers to bits and burn down NationHQ. If that's all it took for the Oil to turn it around, we would do it in a heart beat and rejoice that we were able to find the secret to success. That was actually a great hockey game last night. There was hitting, fighting, a few scores, some cheering, loud noises and a scoreboard.
Basically everything we like to see we saw:
- The beating Strudwick laid on Carcillo? Wow. He hit him so hard his credit score changed. That will teach you to fight someone with reach a foot longer than yours, Danny boy.
- Pouliot having the presence of mind to make a drop pass, get hit, stay on his feet, stay watching the puck then pot a beauty of a goal? It makes the mind positively spin, doesn't it?
- The Hemsky pass across the crease to Cogliano was pretty tidy as well. Not too many peeps make that pass now, do they?
Can we just say how much we missed the JL meeting? For reals. Unless you are at the game or in a bar, the JL makes the game so much more interesting. Who could hear all our witticisms? Our friends? Who cares about them. We don't in the least.
Two Random Oilers factoids:
- fIVE players on pace to crack 20 goals this season
- 30th in the league in scoring at home
And lastly
The Oilers signed Ryan Huddy.
How wonderful! It's good to see that we have given up any pretense that the Oilers are anything beyond a work placement centre for former Oilers players and their family members. The geniuses passed on Drew Stafford, having turned up their noses and said "he's merely related to the trainer. That's hardly worth a draft pick never mind his stats."
These same rocket surgeons have now decided that there aren't enough small forwards in the system and it's time to add another to the mix. Perhaps the Oil have enough small forwards already. Or perhaps we have missed each and every Oilers game this year so we don't know about all the secret grit this team is packing up front. That must be it.
Seriously, what is Craig Muni's third cousin doing these days? Perhaps the Oil could offer him a one-way goaltending contract. There aren't enough of them hanging around that's for sure.

Your angry slurred ramblings make me laugh.
December 23 2008, 10:32AM
Dided you brokeded teh innernetz Wanye?
(insert cute kitten picture here)
December 23 2008, 10:34AM
Who saw this coming?!?
I'm pretty sure the Oilers would've drafted Stafford if they had the chance. In fact, I believe they offered Buffalo their 2nd round pick to move up the one spot in the 1st round to do just that.
December 23 2008, 10:49AM
Despite the fact that the Oilers played better last night than they have in several previous games, I was still concerned that they don't necessarily win last night if the Coyotes don't absolutely implode late in the third and hand the game over. The Oilers didn't win; the Coyotes lost. I'm wondering if Carcillo is secretly a double agent for the Oilers; if he is, he's VERY dedicated, taking that pounding from Strudwick in the line of duty and all. But Carcillo must be a double-agent, right? I mean, how else does he take that many absolutely retarded penalties that late in a tied game?
In short, I'm not looking to give the win back, but it would be nice to see the Oilers take something rather than have it handed to them. Let's hope Friday sees some of that.
December 23 2008, 10:59AM
Oilers signed someone worthless! SURPREEZ!
Nice to see Poo get a score, though.
December 23 2008, 11:08AM
I... I.... I... I... kinda missed most of the game last night thanks to a spirited game of monopoly with my sister, her husband and my wife. But I did manage to see the newly goatee'd Wayner getting mad at the ref's at the end of the third period. The sun shines on the dog's ass someday, Carcillo managed to do the Giguere thing that he did a few years ago when he blew up on the $6 million dollar mullet boy.
Anyways a win is a win and around christmas which makes it better for my family at the dinner. At least I won't be grumbling so much at the dinner this year.
December 23 2008, 11:12AM
@ oilerman53:
I have to say, when your stutter starts coming through in your typing, it's time to get that checked out. :-)
(Kidding. Merry Christmas, O53.)
December 23 2008, 11:18AM
One note from the game: Hemsky's linemates didn't seem to be able to keep up with him in the first period. Perhaps it's time for a big trade (Horc or Penner, plus parts (maybe a goalie?) for an A-1 centre or right-wing)?

Hemsky was in a class all to himself last night, but I think Penner was playing really well too; he was drawing defenders and making room for Hemsky to look so good. Horcoff seemed a little scrambly, though.
December 23 2008, 11:38AM
Alot of good things, besides the win, came out of last nights game. Better puck movement on the 5-3 pp, more down low and less from the point. There was good energy, all lines were productive and the 4th line looked great. The thing that stuck out to me was the play in their own end, they didn't get trapped like most games because, instead of just trying to force the puck up along the boards the forwards came back better and the defence moved the puck faster because they could pass it out rather than just dumping it into the nuetral zone. The second period was horrific becuase they stopped competing, skating, hitting and doing what worked in the 1st. They need to blueprint this game, because if they play like they did in the 1st and 3rd they will be successfull and it will be easier to actually move a guy like Robert Nilson if he doesnt pick up his play. PS. Mac T KEEP THESE LINES TOGETHER for Vancouver.
Who could hear all our witticisms? I went over and spewed on lowetide's GD post. I'm sure they weren't thrilled about it but whatever. that second period was crampy, rag-filled mess.
December 23 2008, 11:44AM
@ freeze:
*baggedmilk is not welcome at lowetide*
@ Adam Dyck: Yep, it's time for an A-1 centre alright. I think it's been time ever since Doug Weight left. So... go ahead. Go get one. Just, make a trade for a valuable commodity that every other team in the league is looking for.
Why don't we all call the Oilers' front office, and let them know that what they need is superstar players. I'm sure they haven't figured that one out yet.
While we're at it, let's just call MacT and tell him that his problem is not enough goals for, and too many goals against.
And then we'll call the Global Economy, and tell them that it should go with rising stock prices, and more jobs, instead of the other way around.
And then we'll call Terri Schiavo's body, and tell her that her problem was not enough brain activity, and too much being not-alive. Kind of like you for making that ridiculous comment.

You know, you don't hear many Terry Schivo jokes these days. Oh I know why - cause it's inappropriate you nerd. Enjoy hell.
@freeze & baggedmilk
who cares about LT. If I wanted to talk to my grandpa about hockey i'd call him directly.
December 23 2008, 11:58AM
@ Gary:
Does anyone know if Staios has found his jock yet after Jovo-Cop did a little slide-step around him to set up a goal? Man he looked worse than normal on that one.
December 23 2008, 12:36PM
@ shakey:
Thankfully we have him signed until 2011.
man, this is a funny pic of The Rake: http://f3.yahoofs.com/ymg/ept_sports_nhl_experts__18/ept_sports_nhl_experts-260782072-1230048104.jpg?ymo9phADur9fNaD2
December 23 2008, 01:08PM
"Man he looked worse than normal on that one."
Worse than pretty much useless on a good night? I swear, Staios is good for at least one GA a game right now. Add Moreau into the mix and you begin to see the problem.
baggedmilk; ahhh the good news on this issue.
December 23 2008, 01:35PM
Gregor or Brownlee,
Any word on Moreau? Rumours creeping around that the blocked shot broke his wrist.
$35 JSBM dollars to whomever gives the first update...
December 23 2008, 01:50PM
Redeemable for what?? JSBM foot rubs if I get my choice.
December 23 2008, 01:56PM
@ baggedmilk:
Fingers crossed! - that is probably the only way to get him off the second line.
December 23 2008, 01:56PM
@ Wanye Gretz:
Excellent choice, Wanye.
Foot rubs come complete with corn removal and foot bath with my very own tears.
December 23 2008, 01:57PM
Wow - the standings on here updated about 14 hours after game time, that must be a record. Did you upgrade to 14.4kbps?
Does anyone think losing Moreau would hurt a whole he((ulva lot?

Fair comment... Another fair comment would be that the "standings" on the site aren't really standings, as they don't really show how where the Oilers "stand" in relation to other teams in the Western conference. Once the Oil make their way back into a playoff spot (I would say with a victory on NYE) it would be nice to see the WC standings on the site (too depressing before then)....

Pssssssst hey Wanye, take a gander at comment 101 in GDB32. :)
@ Ssseth: I also love the poll over there right now:
What would you most like the Oilers to get for Christmas? a) Skatewarmers (speed): 3.61 % b) Stickwarmers (goals): 78.90 % c) Benchwarmers (depth): 6.01 % d) Facewarmers (toughness): 11.48 %
How about e) plane tickets? (trades)
f) 60 minutes efforts each night g) A new coach

While this information admittedly is slightly out of date, you'd be surprised (or perhaps not) at how difficult it is to find a current valuation of the kip against the Canadian Dollar.
Monday, March 03, 2008 15 Lao Kip(s) = 0.00146879 Canadian Dollar(s) 1 CAD = 10212.5 LAK 1 LAK = 9.79191e-05 CAD
Since some time is passed, it's possible that 15 kip has increased in value tenfold and is worth almost a penny now. One can hope, anyway . . .

Man F**K Calgary.... I live close-by Calgary and let me tell you I haven't met more loyal and true fans then Flames fans(Bleeding Sarcasm). Anyways, Wanye thanks for the laughs! Now send me a shirt!
December 23 2008, 03:29PM
@ Wanye Gretz:
Living in Calgary purely for employment reasons (as are many a transplanted Oilers fan)... I agree that there is nothing worse than a Flames fan (espcially the 98% of them who became fans in 2004), and we often risk life and limb down here telling them that...

I think it would. Every team needs a few warriors and Moreau certainly qualifies. He leaves it all out on the ice every time, and contributes a large amount of hits and leadership.
December 23 2008, 03:44PM
Wanye, the Oilers did want Stafford in 2004. Buffalo picked him at 13, the Oilers had the 14th pick and took Dubnyk.
December 23 2008, 03:52PM
@ Ender the Dragon:
Ender, as of this morning it was about double that, but what exactly is your point? Are you saying that JSBM money is not worth very much because it's valued at less than a Canadian penny?
You have cut me deep, sir.

Agreed - every team needs a player like Moreau, but on the FOURTH LINE.

Yet again a debate on currency exchange has reduced baggedmilk to tears. Reminds me of an argument we once had about the Algerian dinar that ended poorly back in '03.

Ethan Moreau does not have any broken bones. He will be re-evaluated on Boxing Day to see if he can play. He has a bruised hand and that is it for now.

Several stipulations in the measure — passed by voter referendum last November — remain unclear. In the meantime, a number of state agencies are offering suggestions to law enforcement, local leaders and school officials. WFCR's Susan Kaplan spoke with Kevin Burke — Massachusetts' Secretary of Public Safety — to get that agency's take on Question Two.

Rice Processing Procedures Paddy Cleaning : removes foreign objects, such as hey, straw, stone, tree stump and snail shell from the paddy. * Rice Husking: rubs excessive husks off cleaned paddy. Once removed, brown rice is separated from the husks through the ventilation process. * Rice Paddy Separating: separates some unhusked paddy from brown rice by applying a difference in gravitational pull and surface friction. The unhusked paddy, then, re-enters the husking process. Rice Milling: strips off the bran layer from brown rice. The bran layer is blown out by air, which sucks in the brand layer. This process usually takes 2 to 3 cycles, depending on the required milling degree. * Rice Grading: separates milled rice (mixture of different sizes: whole grain, head rice and broken rice) by a sieve grader. The finished rice will be stored in individual bads, according to its grade. And the rice is ready for delivery

A Guide to Ecodesign
Back in the day, being eco-friendly often meant automatically having a flagrant disregard for good design in favor of a more hippie aesthetic. Today all that has changed. Indeed, to earn the title of eco-design today, a product has to not only be good for the environment, but also look great in the home, in your wardrobe, in the school or office. A new trilingual handbook, Ecodesign: Ecofriendly Objects for Everyday Use, written in English, French and German by Silvia Barbero, Brunella Cozzo, Paola Tamborrini serves as a guide for designing with an eco-conscious today.

Great classic shoe
"These were comfy right out of the box. I like the polka dot laces. They also came with a set of white laces. The design is simple yet the color will add some pop to any outfit. But I think they run quite long - I usually wear an 8.5 or 9 (or 8W in heels) and I had to get the 8 - very odd for a casual shoe for me. If you want to wear thick socks, your usual size may be ok."

Dragons claimed their second win of the Pro12 season on Friday with a 23-16 victory over Welsh rivals Scarlets at Rodney Parade.
Dragons led from start to finish to claim their second win of the Pro12 season on Friday with a 23-16 victory over Scarlets at Rodney Parade.
The Dragons maintained their winning start as they saw off their local rivals in a breathtaking encounter.
Tries from Phil Price and Dan Evans inflicted a second consecutive defeat on the Scarlets while earning the Dragons a first win over their Welsh rivals in six years.
Scott Williams managed to cross over for the away side while Rhys Priestland notched 11 points from the boot but the Dragons held on to secure a famous victory in front of a packed crowd in South Wales.
The hosts were rampant during the opening stages and they deservedly went ahead with a long-range penalty from Tom Prydie after George Earle was punished by referee Nigel Owens for not rolling away.
Darren Edwards' side continued to dominate and after Prydie was denied by Priestland's last-ditch tackle, the home side did manage to get their first try of the evening.
With Owens awarding the Dragons the advantage, the ball was spread to the left wing and Francisco Chaparro evaded two tackles before a superb offload gave Price the simplest of finished in the corner.
Fly-half Jason Tovey slotted home the conversion from the touchline and the home fans were back on their feet minutes later as former Scarlet Evans was picked out by Richie Rees to score his side's second try.
Tovey added the extras to put the Dragons in cruise control but Priestland reduced his side's deficit to 11 points with a penalty after 26 minutes.
The frenetic pace of the game was epitomised when Scarlets centre Williams tried to kick clear but he was hauled to the ground with the Dragons looking certain to score on the left wing – but for a crucial last-gasp tackle from Rob McCusker.
After being under the cosh for the majority of the opening half, Simon Easterby's side finally started to build some momentum and with just over half an hour gone they got their first try of the match.
Wales international Williams jinked his way through the Dragons' defence to touch down after collecting Jonathan Davies' inside pass on the 22 metre line. Priestland nailed the conversion to reduce the Dragons' lead to just four points at the end of a thrilling half at Rodney Parade.
The second half was equally intense as Tovey cancelled out a Priestland penalty but it was the Scarlets who enjoyed the majority of the ball in the later stages of the game.
The hosts absorbed waves of attacks and after weathering the storm, Prydie extended the Dragons' lead to seven points with a mammoth long range penalty kick from the touch line with only 10 minutes on the clock.
Andrew Coombs rallied his troops as the Scarlets launched a final onslaught but as the clock ticked four minutes into over-time, Toby Faletau booted the ball out of play to send the home supporters into raptures.
The scorers:
For Dragons:
Tries: Price, D. Evans
Cons: Tovey 2
Pens: Prydie 2, Tovey
For Scarlets:
Try: M. Williams
Con: Priestland
Pens: Priestland 3
The teams:
Dragons: 15 Dan Evans, 14 Tom Prydie, 13 Ross Wardle, 12 Jack Dixon, 11 Hallam Amos, 10 Jason Tovey, 9 Richie Rees, 8 Toby Faletau. 7 Lewis Evans, 6 Jevon Groves, 5 Matthew Screech, 4 Andrew Coombs (c), 3 Francisco Chaparro, 2 T Rhys Thomas, 1 Phil Price.
Replacements: 16 Hugh Gustafson, 17 Owen Evans, 18 Dan Way, 19 Rob Sidoli, 20 Netani Talei, 21 Jonathan Evans, 22 Kris Burton, 23 Adam Hughes.

Questions That Need Answers: Second Edition
Jason Gregor
February 23 2009 02:59PM
Based on the amount of questions I got last week, QTNA will now involve questions from the readers as well as my own. If you have any send them to email@example.com.
The Boston Bruins had ten 20-goal scorers one season, and right now the Oilers don't have one. Are the Oilers the least talented offensive team in the league?
When you scan rosters around the league, the Oilers' proven scoring is near the bottom. Right now only Minnesota, the Rangers and the Islanders don't have a 20-goal man. The Wild's best player, Marian Gaborik, has been out all year, the Islanders are horrendous and the Rangers have overpriced UFAs taking up lots of ice time.
But after looking down the line-ups of other teams, outside of the Islanders and the Wild, it is fair to say the Oiler forwards have to be considered one of the least offensively productive groups in the league. The Predators have scored 23 fewer goals as a team, so they are in the mix as well, but Arnott and Dumont have produced more goals than any Oiler forward.
The Wild have scored fewer goals as a team, but they don't get anything from their backend. Their top six scorers are all forwards. At some point, the Oiler forwards have to start to score, otherwise they will only be "paper-prospects."
When was the last time a non-playoff team had the top two regular season scorers? (Malkin and Crosby) -- Sheldon
Originally people said this never happened, but after some research, in fact it has happened once before.
In 1949:
- Roy Conacher 1st: 68 pts in 60 games Doug Bentley 2nd: 66 pts in 58 games
Both played for Chicago which finished fifth out of six teams... So they're the only two that have ever done it, but no tandem has done it since expansion in 1967.
The closest was 1969:
Bobby Hull 2nd and Stan Makita 4th both from Chicago who finished last in 1969.
In 1994 Gretzky finished first in scoring but the Kings missed the playoffs. His teammate Luc Robitaille finished 14th with 96 points.
In 2002 Jarome Iginla led the league in scoring, but the Flames finished 11th in the West. Fellow Flamer Craig Conroy finished 12th that year.
Is Europe or the Leafs the bigger coach killer?
Tom Renney became the second coach to get fired after a loss to the Maple Leafs this season, when he and his assistant Perry Pearn were given pink slips this morning. Michel Therrien got the boot from Pittsburgh after losing to the Leafs.
Losing to the Leafs must be the final measuring stick for Eastern teams.
And all four of the coaches whose teams started this campaign in Europe have now been fired. Renney, Therrien, Craig Hartsburg and Barry Melrose have all been canned after playing two games in Europe. Sorry Oilers fans, the Oil aren't scheduled to start the season overseas next year.
Who do you think has been the Oilers best draft pick in the last 10 years excluding Hemsky? -- Ken
Great question, and there is no name the jumps out right away. Horcoff was drafted in 1998 so that is outside of the last 10 years.
Within the last 10, I would say Mike Comrie. Whether you like him or not, for a third-round pick he's been a pretty decent scorer. He's the only draft pick to have two 30-goal seasons.
The next best would be Jarret Stoll, second round 2002, and Andrew Cogliano who will average 18 goals a year in his first two years. It's clear they haven't drafted any top-end talent outside of Hemsky in the last 10 years, or at least any talent that has panned out.
When will Pisani return, and when he does where do you see him playing? -- Alan
Spoke with Pisani this morning and he is scheduled for another MRI on Friday. If the middle of the bone has healed enough he should get clearance for the game on March 3rd against Nashville.
He will slot in with Moreau and Cogliano. Even though Stortini has been one of the hottest Oilers of late, Pisani will slot back into his usual third line RW position. There has been lots of speculation that when he returns the Oilers might move Pouliot. I still doubt MAP could net much in return, but I wouldn't be surprised if he gets moved.
What is the Oilers biggest weakness that realistically Tambellini/Lowe can fill before the deadline? -- Chris from Clareview
First off Chris, congrats on admitting you are from the northside. It takes courage.
Denis Grebeshkov has resumed skating and it looks like he might return within a week, so that should allow Tambellini to focus on what they really need: scoring.
Getting a left winger for Hemsky is the most pressing need, but also the hardest. Right now I think they will settle for a productive and consistent second liner. The current "second line" has two players with less than ten goals, Nilsson (7) and Gagner (6). They need secondary scoring just as much as they do a top line LW. And it will be easier to acquire a guy with 17-20 goals than it will getting a proven 30-goal man.
Do guys go to Oscar parties like women attend Super Bowl parties?
Super Bowl and Grey Cup parties have been a staple for many years, and non-sports fans have continually attend them. Lately Oscar parties have become more popular, but I've never gone to one and I can't see why I would in the future.
I watch movies regularly, but I could care less who wins Best Actor or Actress. Did you notice that all the best Actress nominees came from "chick flick" type of films? The only reason most guys watch is to see the women's attire. Outside of best picture, director, actor, actress and the supporting actor or actress, does anyone really care about best costume design?
You will never catch me attending an Oscar party.
Why do guys change their facebook relationship status from single to "it's complicated" and vice versa?
I know this has nothing to do with sports, but it's my biggest pet peeve. Girls do this because their friends will comment with remarks like "keep your head up," or "It's his loss." I can understand that they are looking for comfort. But guys? Do you actually think your buddy is going to write anything consoling or that we are even interested?
My buddy actually announced his engagement was off via his relationship status last week. He went from engaged to single, and of course ten different girls chimed in with some comment designed to cheer him up. No guys replied, and why would we?
First off, if my fiancé dumped me or me her, I don't think I'd be posting it on Facebook a day after it happened. Seriously guys, I think I speak for other guys when I say stop posting that garbage. Sure, if she left you for another guy we feel your pain, and will promise to get you bombed the next day. Hell, we will sacrifice a head-pounding, barf-at-lunch hangover on Tuesday if that's what it takes to help you out.
But expecting some sort of pat-on-the-back comment on Facebook is out of the question. FIGURE IT OUT.
Have you actually met Wanye Gretz and do you know if he is single? I think he is so funny and I bet he is hot. -- Allison
For the record I didn't make up this question. I replied to Allison and she confirmed it was for real. I included this query for a few reasons. It shows the major difference between guys and girls. She admits she hasn't seen Wanye and based his hotness on his ramblings, so she is going on wit and personality. Guys, we are shallow. We go for looks first, second and third.
I have met Wanye a few times, and plead the fifth regarding his looks. I can admit that Brad Pitt is hot, it's not hard to see that, but in most cases I think guys have no clue if another guy is hot. Wanye is currently looking, but for what exactly I'm not sure.
But Allison there is one rule. I would never set up a buddy without seeing a picture of the girl that wants to meet him, and most guys won't consider it without seeing the potential prospect. So if you or any other ladies are interested in Wanye include a picture in your email. I will gladly pass those to Sir WG.
Good news regarding Grebeshkov but is this going to be a repeat of Souray's shoulder being better last November only to be at 50% until they pulled him for good or Moreau's bruised, then broken, then fixed, then broken again ankle?
Or is the optimism truly on the level here?
February 23 2009, 03:18PM
If the Oilers could get a legit 30-40 goal scorer and they were asking for Gagner +... would you do it?
February 23 2009, 03:20PM
"Have you actually met Wanye Gretz and do you know if he is single? I think he is so funny and I bet he is hot. – Allison"
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH- *deep breath* HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Careful Gregor. Your bold addmission that the Oilers under Predergast can't seem to draft high end talent will earn you a tongue lashing from Johnathan Willis, who seems convinced that drafting the highest volume of tweeners in the true measure of successful drafting. Niinimaki? Schremp? Pouliot? Terrible! I have hope for Eberle, however... the Oilers seem short on smallish right shooting centermen.
February 23 2009, 03:32PM
If Grebs can be back soon that would be massive for the Oilers playoff chances. The lack of puck movement from the back end has been fairly obvious the last couple of games.
Pisani would also be a nice stabilizing presence on the third line. He always seems to do the little things right.
February 23 2009, 03:34PM

What is the Oilers biggest weakness that realistically Tambellini/Lowe can fill before the deadline? – Chris from Clareview
I was going to say a cardiac surgeon cause there isnt much heart in the lineup -- but the question was realistically.
How about a psychologist then....this is a team of underachievers who need to be reminded that "your good enough, your smart enough and Oiler fans like you" with the hope that they can play to about 85% of their potential.

Another coach bites the dust, and we still have MacT. WTF?

@ Gregor:
With Miller going down, I have to believe that Roli is very attractive option for Buffalo. Given the fact that the Oilers seem to be totally unable to beat any playoff-bound teams and the playoff hopes seem to be waning:
a) Would you move Roli to Buffalo if the price was right? b) Is there any possibility Tambellini would move him?
I feel confident that the late season push this year will mean something. I am excited... I am alive... it is good to be an Oilers fan.
@ Mike Krushelnyski: I know you're asking Gregor this but come on... Trading Roli would do what for the Oilers? Who do you think we're going to get back for the guy that is the main reason we're still in the hunt for the playoffs? And do you think this guy/guys are going to score 6 plus goals a game because we'll need that many if JDD isn't ready to be the number 1. (which I don't think he is) Trading Roli the first 2-3 months of the season was possible. Trading him now says it was it was all a waste of effort because we're throwing in the towel...only a few points out of 8th place with 20 some to go.

Really not sure what the point is in dealing off 78. It's not like he'll help us get back a guy that can replace anything that was being given to us by 37 and 71 and he'd most likely do a great job on the 4th line with 51-46.
Plus, he's affordable again next season and who knows what he could do if he didn't have to play with 18; he's always played well with 34 for instance.
The Oilers both in the present and future need to find a guy who'll mesh with 89 and provide secondary scoring and they also need to get rid of at least 18 and possibly 24 as well.
February 23 2009, 05:20PM
If I may use a golf analogy here (ignore possible irony) the Oil are not going to lay up on this shot. They're looking at the playoffs like a golfer looks at a shot right through the fork of a big tree. While many golfers would be play it safe and take the extra stroke (sell and rebuild), something in me says the Oil management wants or needs the playoffs this year; they're taking the shot, Tin Cup or no. Watch and see, but if we're still in striking distance at the trade deadline (and we'd have to collapse horribly to be more than 4 points back at that point) we'll be buyers again this year. I hope like hell their aim is true, 'cuz it's going to look some ugly next year if they miss.
Listening to Gregor & Richaud (bad spell?) on the way home. Intriguing thought. What about Briere for some low salary guys, a draft pick or some one on the IR to bail Philly out of there cap issues. Is briere a guy we could use long term with Hemsky?

So six goals makes him a top end talent? He hasn't panned out yet, that doesn't mean he won't but he hasn't yet and he has a long way to go to be considered top-end talent.
THe point is do they have PROVEN top-end talent, not paper talent, and the stats show that to date, none other than Hemsky have become close to top-end players.
Oilers have been big-game hunting for awhile so I won't discount any rumors about high paying guys coming to Edm.
I think the Flyers would be about 2 mill over if they brought him back so that gives you a hint of what they could take back. Personally, I'd love to "grit" them up with 18 and 24!!
Though, moving 24 isn't the great idea that it was when 71 was healthy.
it would make a lot of sense for next year, though. Although I'm not sure the same can be said for Briere.

This is not a rumor, just some addition that I did on my way home. It is a fact that Philly has to do something. So I am asking the question, would Briere be a fit in Edmonton? Perhaps it would help Philly to take Visnovsky and keep him on the IR so he does not count against the cap but they get something decent in return for next year. Then the Oil can sign Grebs and keep him with Souray and Gilbert.
February 23 2009, 06:06PM
@ Gregor;
Have the Oilers even tried to re-sign Cole? Does Cole even want to sign with Edmonton? Would he take less than the $4 million he makes now? Would the Oilers even reatin him for $2 million a year? Does he just really want to go somewhere else? Any news at all with what is going to happen to him?
February 23 2009, 06:10PM
@ Smokin' Ray: Several teams are interested in Cole, with Carolina and Boston at the front of the line-up.
February 23 2009, 06:46PM
@ Dennis: Can't you just type their names? Honestly...
Dennis: I can't see them moving Staios. Just because we are lacking playoff experience on the blue line.
Gilbert= o playoff games Grebs = 0 Smid = 0 Strudwick = 7 games in three post seasons Peckham = hahahaha Souray = 34 five post seasons Staios = 33, three post season, one run
They need the veteran experience, to keep the troops calm, this postseason

So you want another water bug?? I dont.. And as for Lumbo... Does he not have a no trade clause?? Why would you want to trade one of your top D man to make room for "Greb's"???? Lumbo is twice the cost but also twice the D - Man ...

February 23 2009, 08:11PM
The biggest weakness is behind the bench.This should have been fixed back in November,Here we go again watching the Oilers struggle to make the play offs.I am tired of Mac T's coaching and K lowe should also take blame for the signings and poor trades that we have done it is cause of these two clowns this once great team is in the position it is in year after year.
February 23 2009, 08:31PM
jeanshorts....i'd do ya, you're almost as funny as WG
MJSH: I know the Flyers need to move him or some salary, I was just commenting on the possibility of him coming to edm and the fact that the brass have been bandying about big names since last summer. In terms of fit, the Oilers need someone to run with 89 the way that 10 and 27 do with 83.
Could that be Briere?
The big issue is that the ~6.6 cap hit means that A: he's gonna have to excel in the top six min role and/or he's gonna have to make the PP hum or B: if he can't, then we gotta find some types who can play against people while making shagall money. The first examples that could to mind would be the old Pahlsson line when the Ducks were great. There's always a trickle-down and if Briere's eating up that much money, he's gotta be able to handle the toughs or we'll have to find someone else who can.
BTW, Speeds wrote about this over at IOF a few weeks ago so maybe this could be out there.
BCB: Yeah, the idea of moving 24 seems less palatable with 71 down for that year; or least in the terms of if you're looking to and/or you're selling the moves as looking to make the playoffs.
February 23 2009, 08:54PM
@ Smokin' Ray:
The Oilers won't try to compete with the UFA offers Cole will get this summer, so it only makes sense that they try to get something for him before losing him for nothing.

He might be, but it depends on what the return is. The Oilers have two options heading into the summer. Sign a high-end goalie or a top-end forward. If they go with the forward, then Roloson and JDD could be their best option, because combined they won't cost more than 3 million a year.
Trading Roloson now means, that either Deslauriers become the guy or they sign a goalie. I think Roloson/JDD combo is a safer bet, than Deslauriers/???.
If the Oilers believed in JDD, perhaps he'd get to play this year;) Then again, they did move garon so they could keep the guy.
Only then to ignore him, of course.
I don't know what they have in store for the netminding dept in 2010 but it should be interesting.
@ Robin B:
I am not a big "what if" guy, and this really doesn't help us in terms of getting something before he hits UFA, but what do you think about getting Antropov for the run (at the expense of Cole)?
It would probably take a 3-way deal(history with Burke)?
I am wondering if Slats would be able to help us out?
Maybe Slats sends his first rounder to the Leafs for Antropov and then we send Cole (and maybe Schremp or Pouliot if we have to) to the Rangers?
I know there are many conflicting reports about what type of player Antropov is, but I think he instantly helps our PP (a way better option than Horcoff on the left half boards). I also think the intensity of a playoff race (coupled with his impending UFA status) might bring out some very good hockey from Antropov.
I guess I am really asking you if YOU think Antropov would be a good short term pick-up and what do you think it would take to get him?
February 23 2009, 09:06PM
My question is for Mrs. Cogliano. How was the game? Did you meet Gregor when you got the tickets and how was he? In all seriousness if you guys are offering up dates, me and my lady friends have seen Gregor's pic and they look good, sweet actually, but in person is different. Wanye is Gregor single? Sorry if this is the wrong forum, but if you can let me know that would be great. I will send pics if needed.
P.S..FMNF...and please I will say that I'm not a diehard who wears a jersey every game, but this site had made me more of a fan in the past few months. You guys are great, and thankfully you haven't mocked the few women on here...Thanks...
Hey Gregor, I was just stepping out of the house when you talked about Horcoff this afternoon, so I apologize if you covered this in your show. What did you make of his comment about the ice when you asked about the one-timers? Personally I'm not so sure the ice is causing all the issues out there. Seemed like an odd answer given how Shawn usually answers during interviews.
Good call on the reason guys watch the Oscars. I put myself through three hours of that just to see what the girls were wearing - well, that and the related fact that I needed to see the lovely Kate Winslet, whom I developed a crush after seeing Titanic on the big screen.
February 23 2009, 09:22PM
@ rindog: Antropov does nothing for me as an upgrade over Cole and you won't see a trade between the Oilers and any team that employs Brian Burke.
February 23 2009, 09:39PM
Antropov is a Goddamned bum.

What about Cogliano?
Are you kidding? 29 ponts in 59 games. (Tied for 178th in the league)
This is NOT top end talent. Cogliano is a small, soft, player with hands of stone... If he was a top end player... wouldn't he be playing with Hemsky?
There is an even bigger problem in Oil Country: Nilsson and Gagner. Everyone has been so busy ripping on Horcoff that they have failed to notice that Horc has more points than Gagner and Nilsson combined. When 2/3rds of your second line is on pace for a ten goal season you know your franchise is going nowhere. Fancy stick tricks after practice don't qualify as high skill, or talent, if you can't do sh!t during a game! Hemsky, the D, and an aging goalie will only carry this team so far.
@ Robin B:
Fair enough - I just can't think of any other immediate help available out there.
I like the fact that Antropov has scored 64 goals in his last 3 seasons (only 186 games) which works out to a 28 goal/82 game average.
Let me simplify my thought process (not that hard to do)? I have resigned myself to the notion that the PP will be what decides if we make the playoffs or not. I don't see the coach going anywhere, so I am hoping we can get some PP help soon?
Who else would be available to fill that void? And at what cost?
Oh... and I don't want to hear about how young Nilsson and Gagner are! This is the big league. If you are not ready to produce here; you shouldn't be here.
And don't tell me that they just need to find "consistancy"... They have been consistant; consistantly unproductive since camp. Torres was inconsistant. He would score 5 or 6 goals, hit everything that moved, and generally look like an emerging dominate power forward for a short stretch. Then he would disappear. That is inconsistant. These guys have been a complete waste of roster space. They don't win draws. They don't kill penalties. They don't hit. They don't score! Why are they here?
W.T. hears Atlanta and Oilers are deep in talks. Horcoff,Cole and Smid for Kovalchuk and Marty R. Marty R was compared to Joe Sakic by MacT and he will be first line center.

I have a rental house that I am remodeling, to now sell. The house was originally built with washer and dryer area in place of a standard tub/shower in the master bathroom. It has bi-fold doors that cover the opening. I would like to remove the doors and install a tub and shower surround. The basement is open below. Plumbing is run to the left side of the back wall where the washer sat.
Any suggestions or concerns with this project? The goal is to increase the appraised value as well as make the home more appealing.

Updated link to source code and a win32 executable
1.5 million documents on the screen at once. That, despite what it looks like, is what you're looking at. Click through for a larger picture, although I have to say that it's at its awesomest on the Renci VisWall, our 9′x16′, 16 projector display wall. Yes, this was also done in Haskell, and fortunately I still have the code for the prototype. The idea here is that I use standard formulae from the text retrieval world's vector space model to position all the documents in a collection in relation to a series of queries.
Each document is represented by a single star on the image, and each query makes up the core of one of the galaxies that form. Text Retrieval often uses a linear combination of several factors in its model of "relevance" and these, instead of combined into a single score, are instead plotted along the axes of a cylindrical coordinate system. In this docuverse diagram, the radius is what's known as TFxIDF, or the dot product of the query vector and the document vector. The angle around the core is dictated by the cosine of the query vector and document vector. The height off the zero plane is the standard score of the length of the document (Z score).
In this diagram, the queries are positioned randomly, but in the future I'd like to have them positioned via multidimensional scaling with respect common document terms, so a user can immediately see how similar they are. The docuverse can also be used to represent document clusters, where the centroid is the core of the galaxy instead of a query.
The wonderful thing about this is that it's interactive. You can zoom around in the universe and get up close to galaxies, although as of yet I haven't implemented actually navigating to documents based on clicking on stars, or handling level of detail so that individual stars are named the same as their documents close up. This is achieved in Haskell using HOpenGL, Data.Array.UArray, and OpenGL Vertex Arrays.
As a useful visualization, it gives you two things. One thing it gives you, given a set of queries, is a characterization of how relevant the collection is to your set of queries as a whole versus another set of queries (which may well be topics instead of standard web-queries). The other thing it gives you is a sense of how similar documents are textually to each other. If you have a small subset of documents that you know are relevant to you, you can (conceivably, although this is not implemented in the prototype) highlight them on the docuverse and then select subsets of documents to be output for analysis later. In high-recall applications, this kind of collection browsing, I think, will be essential in larger document collections.
I've been able to spin this up with a 6 million document collection and have it retain some level of interactivity. The collection you see pictured here is NIST's wt10g collection, a 10 gigabyte web-crawl done several years ago for benchmarking search engines in the Text Retrieval Conference (TREC). One day, I'll have time to work on it again, and i'll release more than just a prototype and be able to open source the code without shame.

Skip to comments.Obama hits bloggers, radio 'talking heads' who 'profit from conflict'
Posted on 10/19/2013 7:05:46 AM PDT by MeshugeMikey
Demanding a change to the way business is done in Washington, President Barack Obama on Thursday urged lawmakers to ignore lobbyists, bloggers, "talking heads on radio" and "the professional activists who profit from conflict."
(Excerpt) Read more at politico.com ...
When your term is up, we look forward to your conviction and sentencing, Barry.
From the Most Divisve SOB in history......rich
Yeah, he's the only one authorized to profit from conflict...
Look in the mirror, President Hussein
And the media lets this double talking flim flam excuse of a man get away with it.
He even smirks before spewing forth his latest venom.
Oh wait, you mean only bloggers who disagree with islamofascism.
Just another example of Barry saying one thing and doing another while his fawning propaganda arm of the Democrat Party dutifully reports it as "news".
Did he throw ATMs under the bus again while he was at it?
Definition of a "community organizer."
the man knows not when to keep his yap shut.
PROFIT From CONFLICT is his WHOLE GAME
SOMEHOW he and his pals assume were not supposed to be aware of this fact??
Yeah, that Freedom of Speech thing is awfully darned inconvenient sometimes.
Fairness Doctrine is comin'!!
Wait until Michael Savage moves to the 3-6pm slot on WMAL come January 2nd, 2014....
Never let a good crisis go to waste.
haha, they ALL live rent-free in Bozo's head. Must drive him nuts, else he wouldn't talk about them all the time. Oh how he wishes he were King.
The great Community Organizer (activist) TELLING EVERYONE NOT TO LISTEN TO ACTIVISTS. Shocker.
Um....Getting a little hot under the collar, Kenyan? You are showing your vulnerability, idiot.
Mark VS Barry a one round...."upset" match!
boom boom out go the lights
You mean like race hustlers and marxist Alinsky community organizers?
Love you, Mr. Levin! ...and Rush, too. Glenn cannot decide whose side he is on.
AMEN I cant imagine why poor barrys been looking SO HAGGARED and on EDGE this last few weeks...
The kakistocracy is emboldened because of the enablers like McCain...I fault the spineless Republicans in the Senate more than the House.
Look, imagine if men like McCain and his quisling buddies actually HAD some testicles and went to the floor of the Senate and said, "THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES IS RIGHT IN OPPOSING OBAMACARE. IT IS A DISASTER AND OUGHT TO BE DELAYED."
But no, the wussies rolled over for the Clown and threw the House of Representatives under the bus.
Again, the only reason Obamacare is continuing is because of the man-child's petulant pride.
So now the little punk is emboldened.
Oh snap, I thought dissent was patriotic ...
The White House and the state controlled undistinguished media (SCUM) make no secret about their "Behavioral Insights Team." They intend to use Cass Sunstein's nudging to force us to behave.
There is no doubt in my mind that the radio media "experts" clamoring that listeners are tired of the attacks on political opponents is an effort to get talk radio to create its own fairness doctrine and shut up about Obama.
I spent the entire Fairness Doctrine era in the silenced majority and I'd rather see civil war than go back in.
the cats out....of the bag...
it would create an armed conflict were Lil Barry to try to stuff it back IN the Bag NOW
We are STILL an ARMED NATION and these pukes know that!!
theres a train a comin......and barry had best get off the tracks
he created it...he loaded it with class envy
he anti Christened it..... as a matter of fact
Barrys doesnt realize that theres a prices to be paid....with a HUGE DEDUCTABLE
The only person I see profiting from conflict is this tard and his friends.
This guy is just more than I can take. He is calling radio hosts "divisive". He's the most divisive president in our nation's history! He comes in like a lion and jams socialism down our throats as we are screaming and hollering in opposition. He doesn't care about anyone but himself. He HATES America and everything it stands for and he an angry black muslim to boot. Everything about his life is a lie. Start with the fake birth certificate and social security number and move on to his "indoctrination" into Marxism as a teen. Then his dope smoking, his "arranged" marriage by the Rev Jeremiah Wright to give him "legitimacy". They do that for closet gays. Then Bill Ayers, the radical terrorist, and on and on. If we don't stop him soon, he will complete his destruction of this once great nation. Let's put blame where it's due. The press no longer investigates and exposes. They enable this man to do what he's done. What he's done is far worse than Nixon and he gets a pass. They will rue the day they did that because socialism affects EVERYONE! They have all killed the goose that laid the golden egg!
You are so beyond wrong, you have no clue.
Now, more than ever, the Tea Party is needed. Keep fighting, do not stop because a delusional socialist President and his Brownshirt political party is trying their best to shut you up.
Check the "missing" WH visitors log or phone record. Not the 'official' ones.
You'll see bloggers and activists are totally IN HIS POCKET.
"Ignore the Free Press! Pay attention to Obama approved government news only. On penalty of death."
Emperor Obama
thats Racist!
"The only person I see profiting from conflict is this tard and his friends."

Cute and Comfy
"These are wicked cute and look great with a pair of cuffed jeans. They are great is you are looking for a easy to wear boot that you can wear without pain. Only negative is that you have to fight a little to put them on. I would suggest a shoe horn since the top is a narrow opening."

New Booties
"I ordered these online, but I had tried them on in the store before. I normally wear a 6 but I went 6.5 on these because the 6 was a little snug. If you're unsure, go up the half-size. Overall, Love these boots and am very excited to wear them!"

"the boot fits true to size, although a little narrow. I would say it is a little short for those who like to wear shoes a half size larger. I like my shoes to fit exact and a little snug so these are perfect. those with a larger foot, order a half size up."

The Academy of Country Music Awards was held last night, and the big news is that Taylor Swift pulled off a surprising upset to win Entertainer of the Year over Blake Shelton and Miranda Lambert. Go Swifty! We noticed that the apparel trend seemed to be dressing up like creatures of the ocean. Flip through out gallery of deep sea lookalikes and dream of a beachside summer.

Gabryszak Calls for Tougher Hit and Run Penalites
Please enter your comments below.
hit and run
i think they should change the law if you kill someone then it should be life in prison and ther is to many hit and run cases going on from charles serio of tonawanda ny
Tougher Penalites
Ideally the Offender's drivers license could be premanently revoked after a fatal/near fatal hit and run. Unfortunately stronger penalties will not deter the majority of these offenders because they are not thinking that they will be caught. However, Penalites for killing someone should be harsher than one year in prison if a life is ended due to driving recklessly.
Both of these accidents were directly related to drinking and driving. We need to start by making stiffer penalties for being caught while driving under the influence. Two of our young people's lives were ended because two idiots drank too much and then drove their cars. We need to deal with this problem otherwise we will have more such senseless deaths.
Pedestrian/Bicyclist Safety
I find it interesting that the news can concentrate all their efforts on DWI laws. Not once, were any bicycle or pedestrian laws mentioned. Recently, we had a DWI hit and run. It was a horrible tragedy that I hope I will never have to face with my children. Unfortunately, many people do not know the "rules of the road." For instance, NYS Law states that any child under the age of 14 is to wear a helmet when bicycling and follow the same traffic rules as motorists. Bicycles are to have reflectors on them - white in front and red in back. Pedestrians are to walk against traffic. And whether on a bike or walking, at night wear something/anything reflective. "Be Safe, Be Seen" While visiting the location of the child's accident, at least five kids 14 and under road their bikes - on the wrong side of the street (against traffic instead of with traffic) and not one was wearing a helmet. Not only do we need to educate the public about DWI but we must also do a public service by reminding the people about traffic safety for bicyclists and pedestrians. Ironically, May 9 is designated as "Ride Your Bike to School Day." Perhaps WBEN can help spread the word. Thank you.

Sexy and Comfy!
"When I asked what my husband thought of my shoes (who doesn't often have much to contribute to my fashion taste) he said "sexy" and these are the perfect balance of a little sexy, class and most importantly comfort! These are my new fav black pumps for workdays!"

"Stylish and cute and everytime I wear them I get compliments. I looked everywhere without success until I logged onto DSW.com and thats when I found the perfect shoes. I always shopped at DSW on vacation for summer shoes so when I finally remembered to check DSW I actually found what I was looking for within minutes. After all the time I wasted elsewhere, boy did I learn my lesson. Now, I go straight to DSW!"

Very Cute and All-Day Comfy
"These were my first foray into higher heeled shoes in about 3 years, and I am glad I got them. Attractive although be aware they are a satin that makes you think they would go well with a brown bridesmaid dress."
