Post-Game Talk: Monarchy Abolished (x3)

[Cloned]

Agreed, I just don't think the refs were on our side tonight.

Neutral officiating feels favourable at this point when you’ve been through a decade plus of shitty officiating against you.

Still no pressers in the Media room with the crowd at the Window??? What gives??? Those pressers were f***in awesome.

 

[Drivesaitl]

The Kings board is busy firing coach, GM, California, half their players and giving up hockey to follow the dodgers. What a read over there. Nobody loses quite like Kings fans. Nobody hates their club quite as much as Kings fans. Maybe they deserve them.

The most negative board I've ever seen.

You won two cups. Shut up!

I mean think about it. You could have the Nucks as a franchise instead. As much as we jeer Nucks fans now thats gotta be franchise hell. Them and Buffalo.

lol

They just signed Dubois so....lolz. I am curious what they do in the summer, imagine them trading Byfield for zegras, that would be funny

Kopitar and Doughty are the logical candidates, imho. But they will likely try one more year.

Wasn't the Draisaitl/Nuge one there? I distinctly remember hearing cheering.

Seams to be a trend this year, that the post game interviews are not what they used to be.

They had very little hope going into it. Lots were sarcastic and pessimistic. Not a passionate fanbase that’s for sure. Series was pretty much over before it began. But I’m a believer in the 7th man effect.

I don't know what the problem is. If it's getting both gretz and Connor.

No I really don’t think. It was in some room with a black background though. But the crowd wasn’t there.

But by design in emdonton anywyas. Like if they had it in the media room it’d be a party like years past. I bet the NHL put a stop to it to make other fanbases feel less inadequate. Either that, or a directive from the team to not get too high off wins, cause those pressers were like Cup parties at times.

The meltdown that just started in LA will be glorious


Hard not to remember the panic past oilers teams showed when playing with the lead. Tonight was the opposite of that, big blocks and great puck management

The kings board was like this even as early as 2015-16. it took about one season of them not winning cup to completely turn. They were always losing series before they started in their minds.

What have you done for me lately bunch. Apologies to the few fans there with semi reasonable views. Like the one fan that just said. "hey, we're just losing to a better team".

But in LA if theres no Academy Awards you're a flat out bum. These being fans of a team that has made the playoffs 3yrs in a row during what is usually a rebuild stage.

 

[OfCorsiDid]

So did we just do to the LA Kings what the Stars did to us in the 90s/00s?

 

[Ibanez]

I saw this. Was laughing hard. He was clearly excited and not thinking properly. But yeah soooooo funny

 

[Drivesaitl]

Say what you want about Doughty he is flat out honest. He was also the one appreciating the crowd noise in Edmonton pregame and getting a kick out of it. The guy loves hockey. Loves being all around it. Hate the guy for being an opponent but I remember liking him plenty on Team Canadas back when that was even a thing.

hmmm, well the cheering might've just been me

 

[bellagiobob]

Wonder if Blake survives this third straight knockout and a clear regression by the Kings. Had a nice rebuild going and has turned it into a mess.

Past Oiler teams would have gone into yard sale mode after LA scored that 3rd goal. They weren’t rattled at all tonight.

I commented on it multiple times. Yeah, he totally forgot. The Oilers staff were blocking him from going to the tunnel. Get back on the ice. Was so loud they had to shout it in his ear and make cue cards....

I made up the last part.

Over 3 series against the Kings, how we've come so far from the days of "Mikey Anderson will shutdown McDavid"
