Apparently, an unhappy Edmonton Oilers fans threw their Oilers jersey on the ice after Saturday’s 6-0 loss to the St. Louis Blues. The Edmonton Oiler head coach Dallas Eakins has caused a fire storm when he said this. This will probably blow up ever more as the day progresses.
"For some fan to show us all that he quit, he's done, he threw in the towel, I think that says volumes about the individual." ... — Eakins

Clarity. Today my passion for our Jersey was clearly on display. Our Jersey is sacred and the passion for it will never calm.

My comments were intended to show that we will continue to try and emulate our citys hard working, blue collared approach.
