Born on this date 55 years ago...an @EdmontonOilers cult hero with the fan base..."the mangler"...Igor Ulanov.
He had two stints with the Oilers and in 2000-01 averaged 23:00 TOI and was +15!
Hard-nosed old school throwback player who could defend.
@nhlspotlight I agree, the Vancouver Canucks have put together the greatest roster in the history of hockey, basketball, football or the Nathan’s hot dog eating contest. Which is fitting cause this guy has JT Miller’s weiner so far down his throat, he’s a regular Joey Chestnut.
@TheOilogosphere I don’t care if we’re terrible in even 4 years. If we win a cup, I’ll be dead anyway. My shriveled Oiler tattoo covered corpse won’t live past the cup parade. #partytilyoudrop
