@fireblade185 before u go off..when did I mention anything about when smyth left n when the kids were drafted..I was just stating that a bunch of la fans wanted more out of ryans move back home and said that they wouldn't have been willing to give up what la wanted.well what fans wanted I mean.
U can't really blame the oil on that one..la got somthin out of it..better off that than nothing...the oil weren't about to give hall or ebs up..don't think there was to much la could have done to keep him there.
Thanks edmonton, we do smyth a favor and trade him back to you guys on HIS REQUEST and we get a shitty injured player. Talk about dirty MF. Oh and you can take Penner back too
@eromsnid0411 don't blame us when your management was stupid enough to take both deals, and don't criticize us, don't ever forget August 9, 1988 when we helped keep the team in LA
@aceshighnick BS, he took a pay cut to let the Oilers sign players like pronger, peca, ,and many others and when they left he said he wanted a 500k raise. He was getting something like 2mil before so basically he took a pay cut and we spat in his face
@aceshighnick BS, he took a hometown cut for a few years to let players like pronger, peca, and many more to come here but when they left he said he wanted a raise, they said no and he was traded. in my opinion he took a salary cut and we spat in his face
Sunday, October 9th, Edmonton hosts the Penguins in their season opener, cannot WAIT for Smyth's reception, this is one of the best promo vids I've ever seen, can't stop watching it, well done
@imitatedsmile A game where Ryan Smyth (let alone any other player) leads his team from a 4 - 2 deficit to a 5 - 4 win, and records his 500th point plus a hat-trick......... there really was no other choice for footage. :)
Can't wait for opening night...the roof is goona blow...can't wait to show captain canada how much we all missed him...very proud to be an oil fan right now
Amazing. Smyth will go down in Oiler history! He's the man, he completes us Oiler fans, there's nothing greater than seeing that mullet fly about in this building while he wears our colors.
Ryan Smyth makes me remember why I am such an Oilers fan. Loyal to Oil <3

The only reason Smyth went to the islanders in the first place was the oilers were offering him 6.1 million and the islanders were offering him 6.5
