I call it a classless act. (oh oh, it is gonna get warm around here) With a 3 or 4 goal lead you might expect a team to try protecting it. Not the Oilers, they aren't content to beat a team - they have to humiliate them. What this does is make the league look bad, and give other teams a reason to gun for them. To keep pressing as hard as possible with a 10 goal lead isn't good hockey, it is a sign of, well, immaturity. Who knows, maybe Chicago will get mad now. ps - I feel *MUCH* better now! -- Rick Gillespie rick@ucla-cs ...!{cepu|ihnp4|sdcrdcf|ucbvax}!ucla-cs!rick "She turned me into a newt! . . . I got better."
