""These guys came in, they enjoyed our hospitality and when the bill came ... they went ballistic to the point where they started threatening, denigrating my staff, saying, `We're the Edmonton Oilers, we expect a 50 per cent discount,' " said Terrigno."

Wow... Wtf???

And wait, why are they expecting a discount for being rich and famous?

Hahaha, and people think that OUR team has behavioral and responsibility problems.

Wow.


EDIT: Okay on a much more serious note, this is not very good for hockey.

Thats Kinda bull shit to the tenth degree... If i was the owner I woulda told them to suck it and then if they still refused, I woulda called the cops... absolutely ridiculous on so many levels....

Wtf are Canadians doing up there in those restaurants? First the Sabres get food poisoning, then millionaire Hockey players from Edmonton try to skip out on a tab worth 10,000 in alcohol... Funny thing is the staff did it too...

Now all of the Basketball and Football fans will make fun of our sport even though their players murder people and sell drugs with illegal weapons!

You have to understand them they're only getting hundred thousands of $ / month so they aren't able to pay 17.000 $ bills. And for sure these poor guys guys deserve a discount for being that rich.

Just fucking unbelievable. Hopefully the GM is dealing with this situation.

This is just one of those drunken "embarassments" that no one ever wants to have to deal with. It seems like a good idea at the time, but ends up looking really bad by the light of day.

Sad, really. It reflects poorly on the organization, and NHL Hockey as a whole.

At least they didn't pull guns like certain players in the NBA...

And no one is suspicious that it happens to be a Calgary Restauranteur? Kind of have to wonder just how well these players were actually treated. Not saying they're blameless, but there are probably more sides to this story than simply players being douchebags.

Nothing like fueling the fire of the Flame/Oiler rivalry

I was going to say exactly that.

I was like, "Oh. Calgary. I see."

This restaurant is a high class establishment, with a long history of respectable service. This had nothing to do with team loyalties. If a large group is going to put a high brow restaurant through the planning and effort of serving 45 people, on New Year's Eve no less, they better be prepared to honor that service with a fair and potentially fully paid tab.

It's absolutely pathetic to imagine that these players and team officials couldn't manage to pay an average of $375 per person for a high class meal and top shelf liquor. It's not like they don't have the money. To respond that way shows no respect what-so-ever for the staff and management. What happened to being humble and appreciative?

According to what someone said on HF Boards:

"There is some real fishy stuff going on in this restaurant, rumor is they pulled the same stunt on the Flames in the past and they have never gone back, if you do restaurant review searches, you will find the biggest complaint about this restaurant is billing problems."

Hmmm...

Sorry, my bad.
Yeah, the thing is, why didn't the owner call the cops? If a bunch of guys are in your face demanding a lower check, pay or get in trouble with the police.
