Post-Game Talk: Oilers put Hollywood in production hell

[TheNumber4]

That's a suspendable play imo.

Hah suspendable. Low bridge to Vinny in game 1 put an end to that possibility. f*** Bettman.

 

[dustrock]

Glad to see the league still refuses to do anything about intentionally trying to injure our star players.

I'm sure Nurse will get a game.

 

[TheNumber4]

1.5%!?!!?

Be better Oilers.

 

[Drivesaitl]

Maybe, but this honestly seemed like a death throe from them. Just a desperate, pathetic display from a team that knows it's clearly not on the same level as the team that's about to bounce them the third year in a row.

Not sure about this. The one thing I know about playoffs is unpredictability of it. We find out if Kings have any coaching, any adjustments, and if they have coherent leadership.

Isn't it strange (or not) that the best Kings playoff performance against us was without Doughty? So odd, because the guy can make so many plays but f***s up so much too. Even his mentality seemed to cost the Kings tonight and really he handed us the first goal. Star D can't lose his mind every 2nd game.

Holy f*** Toronto booed Ohtani LOL. The entitlement of that f***in market.

He was never going there you stupid f***s.

 

[guymez]

They were very effective last year together.

They were very effective tonight. That is Kanes type of game...he was a major factor tonight.
I was pissed at him for his poor read on Doughtys goal but he more than made up for it.

 

[bellagiobob]

Hyman scored his 60th of the season tonight and no mention of it from SN. Shocking.

 

[Jimmi McJenkins]

Against the kings you want to get smaller?

Did you not watch this game

This was my thought as well z with all due respect to Derek Ryan

 

[McSpecial DraiBlend]

It's a beautiful Saturday morning, 2 month old sleeping like a champ, Oilers destroyed the kings. Today is a good day

Enjoy your kid. It flies by man.

 

[Tobias Kahun]

I am exaggerating, but he was on the receiving end of big hits several times. He blew up the defensive coverage, which led to a goal against, scored a goal, and got into a fight. He was in the thick of things, but it's not like he was having a great game.

He also had a great pass to draisaitl for a tap in.

He had a great game

Somebody has to knock out that giant p***y Dubois. lol

The Oilers could start my grandmother on the fourth centre position and still be the tougher team. The Kings are dirty, not tough.

 

[GOilers88]

Oilers showing Nucks how to actually beat a team. Probably none of them watching. A parade in Surrey.

 

[bobbythebrain]

What a statement game. Kane knows what playoff hockey is all about. Props to Desharnais for a good game. Nurse is a disaster w/ the puck but full props, he had 2 huge blocked shots

Zach with the i'm gonna do your taxes suit on in the press conference.

 

[TheNumber4]

Kane presser boys. This will get him going even more. He loves the spotlight.

Holy f***ing shit

Now cite the Nucks game. lol

 

[Dazed and Confused]

In a game where RNH, Drai, and McDavid all have 3 points, the biggest story is Kane.
Gordie Howe Hat Trick, and he was able to give the 2nd line an identity it'd been lacking. Simply outstanding.

Meanwhile they got to re-unite McLovin and McLeod allowing both lines in the bottom 6 to have a pair of speedy puck hounds (speaking of getting an identity). When L.A started to push the pace in the 2nd, I thought McLeod and Foegele did an outstanding forechecking, pressuring the puck, and breaking LA's flow. Same with the 4th line.


Also shoutout to Skinner for the strong bounce-back game. The defence played a clean game in front of him, but he was able to save the chances that broke through. Massive game by Vinny, especially on the PK.


Like previous playoffs, I think the Kings are actually doing a decent job against McDavid and Nuge 5v5. Unfortunately for them, once again they don't seem to have an answer for Draisaitl's, Hyman's, and Kane's size though.

 

[UHHHH SON]

Great effort! Skinner did what was required. Their coach looks unhinged.

 

[Oilhawks]

Maybe, but this honestly seemed like a death throe from them. Just a desperate, pathetic display from a team that knows it's clearly not on the same level as the team that's about to bounce them the third year in a row.

The bolded has to be creeping into their heads tonight. Most of that roster has been booted by the Oilers two seasons in a row already

Talbot and Rittich both have issues with the Oilers too, they really needed to get that Ullmark trade or whatever done (glad they didn't...Korpisalo on his career year made last playoffs a pain in the ass).

Man is made for the playoffs.

[TheNumber4]

Kinda wishing we gave Kane 1st star tonight. He deserves it.

 

[Drivesaitl]

Skinner was #1 star tonight ..
Kane #2
Hyman #3

Of course Drai not even on your list despite being first star and Oiler of the game. Not just the production but the D stops and taking a goal away from LA on an empty net.
