Nothing like fans from non playoffs teams or from teams that were eliminated to chime in and give the Oilers advice
You clearly became an NHL fan last week.

Apparently this is an old Mark Messier quote that Mactavish would like to use as advice to the current Oiler team whom he feels is getting outplayed by the Canucks.

Does anyone know what it means or stands for? I dont get the metaphor or the euphemism.

For one, the Oilers lower lines/pairs have not been selling their bodies to make plays.

It makes sense. The other team is coming in to stomp all over your team’s will, therefor defend team honor & that crest like you’d defend your balls.
