Podzy will be really good soon
Giving Podzi what kind of sounds like a Scottish mixed with Liverpool accent kept tripping me out. lol Great interview though!
Amazing pass in the first game to Arvidsson, and scored to narrow down with 1 deficit. Momentum shift. Smart guy knows what is the best to do, hope teammates know the key elements to have a score: speed, timing, and surprise.
he was huge on that bennet goal
Really cool content
Now we see where Podz got UFC skills
Vasi heavy hands! As a life long oilers fan I love having podz playing here. Hopefully we can keep him in Alberta for a long time.
