Good series guys. I'd have liked a different ending but your guys earned it.

class and sportsmanship

love to see it

Incredible performance by Shilov. I wish we had him.

He really stepped up when put in a tough spot. I'm glad we have a steady supply of good goalies here after the lean years we had in net.

Outside of the giveaway, there is not really anything to complain about this game.

• Skinner was in the way of everything. Square to shots. Not letting rebounds. Just all around solid.
• everyone selling out and blocking shots. Sticks in lanes
• Nuge with the series winning goal, PP finally comes through
• defensively it was a masterclass. Pucks were getting out when they needed (outside the obvious one) Foegs with that shift with under 2 mins to go was just beautiful. They really shut it down after that scare

It just felt like it was a team that has been there before against a team that hasn't. A game seven road win almost perfectly executed.

Typical Oilers ending. But fk yah...we eliminated the Flames and Canucks in 3 years! lets go!

 

[Jimmi McJenkins]

Pettersson is absolutely going to be a the first flight to Prague, he was absolutely checked out all playoffs. Pathetic effort

 

[CycloneSweep]

Must have missed you last win. Lets go!

I think I said something like “damn now I have hope”

I was DEAD wrong about Holloway. Dead wrong. I didn't see much from him last year or this year when he was up.

Well, the crow tastes f***ing delicious. He's a stud. What a coming out party for the kid. What a series. He's a f***ing player and I absolutely love to see it.

Thought he could be a cheap internal Foegle replacement next year. Playoffs showing his top 6 potential

It's fun getting each other's blood up when the season's on, but done is done and we lost fair and square.

Canucks were a tough out, but I also can see them falling back a bit next year. Pettersson’s new contract kicks in, Zadorov’s status TBD, Lindholm I’m sure won’t be back, etc.

 

[Ritchie Valens]

As much as I hate the Canucks, I have to hand it to Silvos. He made some massive saves all series long and tonight was no different. What should have been a 6-2 win was a nail biter.

 

[VainGretzky]

The true Norris winner this year not even nominated shows the joke the hockey press are

 

[Drivesaitl]

Im so glad I don’t have to listen to the media constantly jerk off Tocchet anymore

Oh that won't be ending anytime soon. Better turn the sports channels off for the next year or so. There'll be literally nothing about KK.

Same as Hughes vs Booch. Look who showed up!

 

[BlackDogg]

The BP commercial will only annoy others now for the rest of the playoffs

 

[Dradavich]

When Canucks fans tell you that you are being disrespectful for trashtalking them after this loss just remember this video

I guess this is not happening in Vancouver. Fake video.

You only get to make so many mistakes or you go home.
McLeod made multiple mistakes tonight in an elimination game.
McLeod refuses to go to the front of the net and throws a body check seemingly once a series.

Whatever doesn’t eliminate you makes you stronger.

Silovs. hehe

 

[larek]

That’s the first thing you think of after a massive game 7 win?

First thing I thot was Holy f k almost FK Ed it up

 

[Captain Fantastic]

Rick Tocchet looks like Billy Joel .

 

[McOilers97]

Thought he could be a cheap internal Foegle replacement next year. Playoffs showing his top 6 potential

I’ve been kinda meh on him offensively because it’s taken awhile for him to look like a scoring threat with some actual finish, but I think it’s happening for him now.

 

[tiger_80]

Yes, Nurse deserves a huge amount of praise the last 2 games. I made a mention during the game that tonight reminded me of early career and World Juniors Nurse. He was physical, aggressive to the puck carrier and with the puck and cut down on those wasteful passes that he tends to make.

Holloway just looks like a talented guy that's finally getting opportunity. His game is made for a top 6 role, having him on the 4th line and then the 3rd with struggling players was holding him back. I thought he was the Oilers best forward tonight, along with RNH who has been a godsend the last 3-4 games of this series.

He should be in the top 6 full-time next year. Finally, a cheap drafted talent.

 

[larek]

Pettersson is absolutely going to be a the first flight to Prague, he was absolutely checked out all playoffs. Pathetic effort

Even his post game was very weak and soft

 

[Drivesaitl]

Unbelievable. Can't even get any coverage of our team that just f***ing won the game and series.

Lets go into the losers dressing room again to talk about the Nucks great game......<sarcasm>

What a choke job losing last two games. Not even with egregious luck could they beat us.

 

[tiger_80]

Elliotte sure does hate the Oilers. You can tell he wants to just talk about Marner for the next 30 minutes.

Marner purchased Auston's toilet?
