Here's something fun I just discovered: In the 2023-24 regular season, at all situations, the Flyers' shooting percentage was 8.53% In the 2023-24 regular season, on the powerplay, the Flyers' shooting percentage was 8.40% Only team in the league where the PP percentage was worse than overall.

The Edmonton Oilers just had the best free agency period of my adult life, and they did it without a GM in place. Interesting. Wonder if there's any lessons there.

Ah see, that's a common mistake. The act of giving a garden cucumber isn't one of kindness, it's desperation. You're bipedal and breathing? Oh my god, please take this, please. There are so many cucumbers.

This season has felt like a microcosm for the last 15 years of Oilers fandom, and it’s gonna be worth it. Go Oilers.

I’ve been using our small backyard garden as a way to get my kids excited about eating vegetables but it worked too well because now they insist on helping me plant seeds, but they don’t get the spacing right and I have to go back, dig up and sift the soil to get the seeds out, and replant.

the Florida Panthers were leading the Oilers 3 games to 0 in the NHL Finals coincidentally Donald Trump posted about the Panthers for the very first time on Truth Social just as Game 4 started the end result of the game:

@wheatnoil.bsky.social Wheat, has anyone pointed out yet that when the 20-21 Jets swept the Oilers in a series that felt not dissimilar to this one, their head coach was Paul Maurice?

Wheat, do we think the Oilers have any PDO karma remaining from the first 8 weeks of the season or did they cash it all in tonight?

Wheat, ya boy was in the house for this one, and I think that we’ll look back upon the Janmark shortie as the turning point in the series, and maybe the entire playoff run. Stars looked completely defeated. And I have never heard a crowd that loud in my life.

Wheat, am I crazy or is this the most structured Oilers team we’ve seen, like, ever? After a solid decade and a half of blown plays and swarm defense, it’s jarring how poised this team is.

Bugs do you think there’s a chance Brad Treliving thinks Nurse is a #1 defenseman? I’m hanging all of my hopes on it.

This is even more frustrating because winning the division is…seemingly within reach? Vegas is hella injured, Canucks are way over performing expected results. A first round matchup against Not Adin Hill or Thatcher Demko is a real possibility!

Honestly I think the most impressive feat was Brock Faber putting up a Tony Snell-esque statline amidst all of those goals.

My first thought was "oh no, Nurse and Vinny are gonna get killed" but they're nearly 65% xGF in limited minutes together, so...maybe it works? The bigger head scratcher is why now...we've barely seen these pairings at all at 5v5 this year. Really strange.

I realized about a month ago that I hadn’t seen Vinny do anything obviously bad in 5 games or so, and that streak has continued.
