This is Syd Howe in a St. Louis (NHL) Eagles uniform from 1934 (source: SIHR). I haven't seen an Eagles uniform before so thought it might be a point of interest for you. Syd Howe was a helluva hockey player (made the HHOF) and is one of 146 Ottawa-born males to play in the best hockey league this side of heaven (Edmonton has 173 to date).The best Ottawan (is that right? Ottawan? or is it Ottawanian? Ottawannabe? Ottawan-Kenobi? I really don't know) to play in the show might be Denis Potvin, but Howe was a beauty player based on the numbers and reports from the era.

Oilers at Sabres, G19, 09-10
I don't have any real idea about this edition of the Edmonton Oilers. I picked them 11th in the conference and that's about where they are today. I don't think you can make a strong case for this team being a playoff club unless they ride luck, good health and a trade deadline for the ages into the fringes of the second season.If you're going to counter that argument...

Aaron Musick: Avs get penalty killed.
The Avs got killed tonight by their own lack of discipline.
The Avs took eight penalties for 16 minutes and the Edmonton Oilers went 4-for-8 on them, routing the Avs 5-3.
