Well, Oiler fans, any excuses lined up? Chicago has now done the near
impossible (to listen to some members of the media and net) by tying
their series with the Oilers. How does it feel to be on the other end
of a blowout? Not so nice is it? What's that you say? The Oilers got
two goals at the end to make it close? Tee hee, they did indeed, thanks
to some of the most incredibly bad officiating I've seen - the Hawks
weren't allowed to touch the Oilers (two of the worst slashing penalties
I have ever seen called in the 3rd) while Mcclelland was allowed to 
roam the ice creating mayhem (a vicious elbow behind the net - everyone
sort of stopped EXPECTING a penalty, and a charge and butt-end after
the whistle was blown). Yep, I just love to watch the crystal clean
Oilers fly up and down the ice :-). Sometimes I think I'm watching a
basketball game with the number of (uncalled, of course) picks being
set - those used to be penalties for interference weren't they? Ah, well
we only have to watch the Oilers goon it up for 2 more games anyway :-).
