Battle of Alberta

[ethestnret]

Great players in Calgary overtime like Iginla nieuwendyk, phaneuf,and MacInnis. Epic legends in Edmonton though, Gretzky, Anderson, Coffey, Kurri, Fuhr, Messier, Smyth, Nugent-Hopkins, Hall, Jordan "clutch" Eberle!!!

[ethestnret]

Epic rivalry, no two teams hate eachother more in professional sports, The most pure un-adultered bitter distaste for eachother. Flames vs Oilers = bad blood. With Hall Nugent-Hopkins and Eberle, we'll see alot of fire power!

[boomerncheeze]

No more cup for you Edmonton...

[Canman99]

What a great rivalry! Every Battle of Alberta is so friggin' epic!

[profile86]

Flames for life son

[benduncan8]

yeah!! oilers suck cock 5-0 against edmonton this year gonna be 6-0 GO FLAMES!!!!

[tomellis5989]

haha gimme fuel gimme fire...creative song choice ;]

[twiggles]

Btw, this video is biased towards the oilers. But I'm not complaining. Good job. (ps. I'm a flames fan)

[ElZilchoJuninho44]

it really is.

[twiggles]

Instead of acting like kids, appreciate the battle of alberta.

"Calgary is better" vs "Edmonton is better" for this season is useless since the season hasn't even started

[Kevinhurley33]

edmonton is the better team.

[Oilblood87]

learn how to spell DUEL

[31Nibs]

GREAT SAVE BY ROLI

[a2thegoodwin]

hopefully oilers fan will understand this...THE FLAMES ARE BETTER RIGHT NOW....the oilers are better in the past that is all i have to say (flames fan)

[OrgasmicOprah]

They really aren't though. They may have more cups but after 1986 the Flames were ripping up the league.

Money was a problem for both teams. Look at all of the players that Calgary and Edmonton had to give up in the early 90's when salaries started to go through the roof.

[Conky1010]

lmao more oiler fans living in the past. All you are saying is that its ok that oilers suck now cause they used to be good back in the 80s. To be honest a lot of Flames fans don't hate the Oilers anymore cause they are just not a challenge anymore. Flames vs Canucks is the real rivally now days. You can make fun of Flames as soon as the Oilers can fluke their way into the playoffs

[swrod34]

agreed

[guynumber11]

@Conky1010 Not a challenge? are you kidding me? every game we have played agianst each other have been close, hard-faught, emotional games. Even then every team in the NHL will give any other team in the NHL a challenge, otherwise they wouldnt be in the NHL. You can make fun of the Oiler as soon as they flames can fluke their way into the playoffs as well.

[nugster1]

10-2. Nuff said.

[verticalychalenged]

that was against buffalo.. what's your point? Every team has a breakdown.. only problem is it happens a little too frequent with the oilers..

[stanleycup2008]

5 Stanley cups........nuff said.  LOL! BURN!

[RedPaladin]

No let's elaborate my friend... 5 cups in 7 cup finals... 1 cup in 3 for the other team LOL!

[stanleycup2008]

I hear ya buddy. Flames fags are very funny to me. You can't say that a team sucks just because of one game. And especially if that team has had WAY MORE SUCCESS than your Lamer ass team has. I'm mean when you compare successes between the mighty Edmonton Oilers and the Cowtown Chokers.........IT'S NOT EVEN CLOSE. NOT EVEN CLOSE BY AN ALBERTA MILE!!! hahahahahaha.......Stay Loyal to the Oil RedPaladin! Cheers from Stanley!

[WaffenSS62]

All I have to say Stanley, is the Oil have some of the most famous, renown champions the sport of hockey has ever known. The flames have among the the biggest fucking losers the sport has ever known. Hockey in Oil Country is a religion, hockey in losertown is something you do to kill time. the losertown flaming faggots suck donkey dick! OIL PRIDE!

[stanleycup2008]

Hey Waffen: Nuff said buddy! Nuff said! OIL PRIDE! WHAT A WIN TONIGHT! CAN'T WAIT TILL SATURDAY NIGHT! COWTOWN HERE WE COME!!!

[WaffenSS62]

ya it was definetely a nice win, but it would've been a lot nicer if MacT hadn't been such a fucking imbecile and lost us 3 crucial games on this homestand =(

[stanleycup2008]

I hear what you are saying but the players need to step up and take the bull by the horns. Anyway, Go Oilers Go!! We are bringing the pride to Cowtown.....OILER PRIDE!!! OHHHH YEAH BABY!!

[cabillionare]

Oilers kick ass!

[Walaman6]

the rivalry in Alberta is probably the most intense and exciting to watch

go oilersss

[leafessucks]

full alberta sucks

[IceWarrior101]

WHO have you signed in the off season to win you the cup? erik cole? visnovsky? look at who you lost pal... good luck bro. i hope sheldon souray plays more then 23 games this year and stays healthy.. so like i said.. good luck. at least we can sitll continue making the playoffs since our cup run.. yours was just a stupid fluke that didn't mean shit... loser.

[SkizzyMcB]

Hey....let's count stanley cups...

Oilers - 5 and counting

Flames - 1 and sucking

[IceWarrior101]

5 and counting? NEITHER team is going to win the cup anytime soon. Oilers players are too young.. Flames players don't play well together. Detroit is the powerhouse these days. The 80's are long gone dude. Name a current Oiler with his name on the cup. Explains everything. Just because you won 5 cups with gretzky, messier and kurri doesnt mean the oilers this year are going to also. No current Oiler has their name on the cup. You need veteran leadership to win you the cup. Not rookie...

[SkizzyMcB]

Listen....I was hust trying to show you in simpler ways what team is really the better one....OILERS!!!

[IceWarrior101]

maybe the 1980 oilers were better.. but not now. Tables are turning and except for stanley cups the battle of alberta is becoming closer. So those are the facts you need to focus on. The only thing the oilers have this year are those 2 games they won by one goal. Oilers biggest losing streak is 5 games. Flames is 3 games. Flames also have a 6 game win streak on top of that. And after you guys were 4-0 and bragging the flames have climbed back up and are ahead. Close though but thats the NW div.

[SkizzyMcB]

Yup, it is close....so I guess we'll see what happens......anything can happen in the NW division....

[IceWarrior101]

absolutely.. like 3 points seperate 4 teams or something like that. Both teams in action tonight Red Wings up 3-0 against oilers and flames and avs is tied at 0 so far

[theyAREnoONE]

ok but here's something we can ALL agree on:

Montreal Canadians > Oilers/ Flames

montreal canadians: 24 stanley cups, which is more than twice the number than the next leading team: the toronto maple leafs who have 11

[IceWarrior101]

lmao stanley do you just go around saying flames suck everywhere? you're a lamer dude

[stanleycup2008]

LMFAO at you IceWarrior101 loser! I'm a lamer?? Your are a fan of the Cowtown Lamers dude!! You suck just like your hockey team. You are also a CHIKCKEN SHIT! Let me explain. See if you want me to see what comments you leave then you should hit the reply button. Then I can respond to your lame ass comment. Otherwise you are a chicken shit and scared of the WRATH that is stanleycup2008!!! Hahahahahahahaha.....OWNED LOSER!! OILERS IN 2009!!!

[stanleycup2008]

Great video dude! I can feel the Battle of Alberta heating up and I can't wait till next year. Calgary Sucks! OILERS OWN BABY!!!

[CityOfLegends]

Love IT At The start Were Jim Hughson Was Like Wellcome To The Battle Of Alberta :D

[BoyOnAString7]

Can't beat Canadian hockey.

[MrElfunzo]

nice video

[robotguy]

Really good video, too bad it's all recent stuff. Some of the old battle of alberta matchups in the 80's were absolutely wild, with bench-clearing brawls a regular feature. All oilers-flames games are played with an intensity approaching that of a Stanley Cup final. Lucky me, I grew up close to Edmonton during the Gretzky years and moved to Calgary just before Iginla joined the team.

[sid49]

unbelveible video;)

[maverickhunter24]

remember the cfl to now.

[94SmythEDM]

Laraque sure showed Simon how to fight. He killed him!! Great Video by the way although there are so many more great moments between the Flames and Oilers.

[hoserchatlive]

chris simon is definitely out of his league on that fight. lol

[tacular3]

Flames and Oilers both suck!

[ding2dong]

u spelt dual the wrong way

[KirbyofKirbyofKirbys]

You didn't show many of the great parts of the recent BOA. No such thing as unbiased, still loaded with Oiler bias.

[nugster1]

that is what the BOA is all about right there! Exciting hockey.

[noypi99asteg]

Great Video!!!!! =)

[bigloo55]

how come you didn't show that amazing save by kiprusoff(the one where he saved it with the shaft of his stick out of the air)

[oilpride]

They didn't have that amazing save in the NHL highlights. Unless you're talking about that save he made on Brian Young, I forgot about it. Now that was a hell of a save as well.

[XxChokeOnOilersxX]

Great vid! Favs and 5 stars, liek that it's not one-sided at any point!
