Well sucked to lose this after such a great game 5 performance. I do think losing Boeser just before game 7 did suck a little enthusiasm out of the team at the start. It certainly did for me as a fan. No sour grapes here though. Oilers were the better team in games 6 and 7 and gotta give them credit for grinding out those wins without McDrai really taking over, particularly game 7. Contrary to the popular sentiment, I don't think they are DOA against the Stars.
Tough to take now but when you really break it down, losing this series in 7 to the cup favourites (or close to it) without our Vezina goalie and then losing our top goalscorer unexpectedly before game 7. Hell of a series, great playoffs and season.
