@The Batman is back?!

@The Batman is back?!

Maybe it’s time for another superhero to return???

(Not yet tho, I’m not jinxing this thing)

 

[JordanGalhanth]

I got to admit...after the series against Calgary, I feel like I've used up my emotional energy and that any wins after this are strictly bonus.

Really hope the Oilers don't feel like that.

 

[FanOfSadTeam]

Damn the depth on Colorado is ridiculous. 4 players above 80 pts, 4 above 50. Really don't know what to expect. Hope we can surprise them and everyone else.

Same here, to both.

I’ve said to friends and family that the BoA win (especially in 5), and associated emotions felt like a mini-Cup win. Since I was too young to remember the last Cup win, it’s the closest I’ve felt to it as a fan of this team

Likewise. That BOA was so mentally draining and it's amazing to just be in the Conference Finals so I'm gonna try and enjoy every moment of this series.

Can’t wait to watch MacKinnon, Makar & McDavid fly and cut around the ice.

Btw off topic but Avs fans are the most reasonable, most likeable, and probably most humble group of people when it comes to hockey.

As someone that hopped on the Oilers wagon I would not mind losing to this team as much as others.

 

[Rengorlex]

The Avs are a bunch of losers and we'll blow them out. f*** that team.

You’ve definitely taken up the mantle and fought strongly for the Oilers on the mains, lol.

Dear McJesus,

Our lord and saviour,

May you fuel us with unrivaled will, determination, and effort,

May all our pucks get in deep,

May all our checks be finished,

May we be blessed with many goals,

And above all else, lord, please let us win. Let us rejoice in the salvation of La Bamba and celebrate in your name, lord.

Amen.

 

[Ginger Papa]

Beauty GDT @MoreDifferentS. Hope we can keep your streak going & take the Avs down

Some memes for good luck and health

and one for our friend @5 min 4 ftg

 

[BertMcDrai]

Bring it on.

Let's go and shock some Avalanches.

My first WCF as an Oilers fan and as happy and pumped as possible now.

 

[Lay Z Boy GM]

Game 1 should be fun. Whether we win or lose this one I’m sure Woody is going to have a better game plan for game 2, so I’m not too wound up about this.

Hopefully Smitty is ready to go, could be a lot of pucks going his way, should be back and forth so Smitty just needs to stay focused and keep us in it

All that being said I hope we beat the snot out of them game 1. If we start strong I could see the avs get shook, they haven’t been here before either and they’ve had higher expectations for a few years.

 

[voxel]

It's all gravy from this point on for me.

With that said, I'd like to see more offensive contributions from Poolparty, Yams, McLeod, Kassian, Foegele, Ryan. More shots and chaos please.

 

[Mcnofool6110]

Just win. And not be our usual game 1 notoriously bad selves.

 

[duul]

Put Holloway in.

 

[illegalsmile]

Unlike Calgary, Colorado is a team worth showing some concern over playing. There is no doubt, win or lose, this is going to be a fun series to watch. The Oilers have surprised a lot of people, including their own fans with this run. Remember how certain folks were shitting bricks over the thought of a BoA series?! (That passed quickly, didn't it?!) I believe we can do it again, it's going to be twice as difficult and it really depends on which version of the Oilers turns up for game one.

It's weird, the feeling that playing Colorado has had on me. I'm not worried and I'm not overly-confident either, I feel quite calm about this. I'll see if I'm still feeling as chill, tomorrow morning... Good luck, boys.

Let's do it.

(Do you think quoting Gary Gilmore's final words is ominous, or just modesty-driven sardonic humour, at this point??)

Oil in seven(?)

 

[Gregsky99]

Feels like forever since we had some hockey. Let's f*ckin go boys!!

 

[Paralyzer]

 

[duul]

I think we're all ecstatic with what the team has done up to this point.

Colorado is one of the most stacked teams in the salary cap era.

On paper, sure. But when you compare them with analytics and how both have played in the Playoffs thus far, Oilers have a great shot at beating them.

They're stacked which means we will roll them. We only struggle with inferior teams lol

Game 1 DAY!! WCF!! Let's Go Oilers! Keep doing the good things, staying physical, being aggressive and skating, and good things should happen.
