Learning is fun!
Oddly enough, a "brick wall" is hockey slang for "good goalie."
This is almost making too much sense now.

I shall call him Grant (the charred brick)!
Grant is a great name. I get the reference of course but I also started thinking about rubbing the brick, then a genie comes out dressed in full goalie gear and Grants three hockey wishes.
I get confused sometimes.
That would rub off the charred Deadmonton essence I was hoping to keep. Maybe it can be pretend rub it but I like the Goalie Genie in full regalia idea, very traditional. My first wish, GET THE STANLEY CUP BACK HERE!
For sure place it inside a glass box. One that looks like a rink. Big spotlights as well. People will come from all over the country to visit the brick, and they can wish from a distance but only after giving it an offering.
The Great Brick Oracle, more accurate than the Zoltar machine! Could be the slogan.
Could sell replica bricks as well. But hopefully that doesn't start a trend where, if the Oilers lose, people throw bricks on the ice. Hockey gets weird like that. Everyone comes to the game holding their lucky brick... but all hell breaks loose.
You have a point there, there was a game where everyone dumped their jerseys that way. Maybe the charred oracle brick trinket can be made of foam instead, like the foam hand...Blood stains are hard to clean on white jerseys. It's turning into a solid business plan!
On the other hand, they could use the bricks thrown on the ice to make a new goalie to appease the disgruntled crowd an prevent further damage.
A goalie made out of bricks wouldn't cost the team millions of dollars either. I'm surprised nobody has thought of this.
Lol, maybe they can pass the savings on to consumers and do a roll back a dime or two on concession goods and beer with the new found budget allowances.
Just what the world needs. An arena full of drunk people holding sponge bricks.
That actually sounds fun tho, imagine that with single size pizzas floating down in parachutes launched by drones from the game opener like some glorified adult chucky cheese experience. I can't say anything about that sounds foul.
Could cook the food right in front of you by hovering over the pyrotechnics. You're a genius!
This degenerated to a top notch event with an unbeatable cheap goalie somehow, all started with a magic brick genie in a glass box! This thing does work 😂
LOL!
