IAnd Ryan Smyth, the face of the Oilers, the man who took a paycut just to make the team better, gets traded to the Isles for a 1st round pick, O'Mara, and a bag of pucks. Unfuckingcool, Edmonton. Not impressive at all.

It's a sad, sad day in the city.
He was the heart and soul of the team. He gave everything he had to this city and the fans. He wasn't the one on the Whitemud doing 140 in an 80. He wasn't the one picking up the bar stars at the clubs. He wasn't the one banging the weather chick from CityTV.
He was the guy at the children's hospital signing jersey's for kids with cancer. He was donating to the charities. He was the guy who still went to the mall with his wife despite making 2 mil a season and didn't bitch when people wanted to thank him. He took a puck to the face, lost two teeth, left the ice to get it stiched back up, and came back to win the fucking game.
Lowe is most likely the least popular man in the city right now. Not since the Pocklington days and the Gretz trade has someone in the organization been so hated. I gaurantee the fans are going to let him have it on this one.
And I really
really hope he gets hit by a bus.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
