Gettin' the gang back together!

After that embarrassing loss to the Calgary Flames on January 21st, I'm sure you can understand why I didn't feel like blogging. It sometimes isn't fun to have a favourite team to watch and cheer for. Once you get attached to a team, it's just frustrating when they lose or make a mistake on the ice.. But who am I to talk, I couldn't do any better!

So I decided to take a break from the Pond Warrior's blog, kind of like my own "All-star break".
And lo' and behold!! Coach Tom Renney has got them going again!
After a gruelling practice of skating end to end the Oilers have woken back up and have earned 5 points in the last 3 games! Beating San Jose in a shootout, Taking the Vancouver CANUCKS to a shootout! And defeating a division rival, the Colorado Avalanche 3-2 on Tuesday!

Finally some good news from Edmonton again! Recording some points and players are returning to the lineup! Cam Barker is returning to the desperate blue line in the next couple of days, and Tom Gilbert is on the road to recovery after taking a big hit from Dan Carcillo the last time the Oilers and 'Hawks squared off. They play again tonight so it'll definitely be an interesting game to watch!
