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.
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.
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.
Not criticizing posters for commenting how emotionally draining the BoA was cause I’m in the same boat but dang, we won in five games! Could you imagine if Calgary managed to pull us to game seven???
I've thought this too but I'm also not ruling out being right back up to level 11 after about 5 minutes of game 1.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.

Game 1 of the last two series was pretty much a feeling out process for the Oilers. I won’t get down if we lose but oddly I’d be a tad nervous if we win…crazy I know.Game 1s are our arch-nemesis for some reason
I don't think they win tonight, but at least show up against the Avs unlike the Flames in Game 1
it's tough making it this far in the playoffs as we all know, Oilers need to make the most of it...especially being so close now

1 Kadri facewash and my blood will be boiling
The Makar diving performances makes me more mad than the Kadri shenanigans--both are certainties to happen, mind you.I've thought this too but I'm also not ruling out being right back up to level 11 after about 5 minutes of game 1.
