GDT: WCSF GM05 | Vancouver Canucks vs Edmonton Oilers | Thur. May 16th | 7pm PST | SNP/CBC | So Tight, Almost Like a Playoff Series

[Three On Zero]

You must reside in an alternate universe if that's the case.

Game 4 was the only game where Edmonton was actually better

 

[Lawzy]

Canucks playing hockey again. Always a good sight.

 

[Dust]

I guess you think hitting petersson and falling on your bum should be a penalty for pettersson??

He's a big boy, he won't do it again next time now at least.

 

[LTIR]

One day a referee will get tired of McDavid diving and call a penalty on him, that day will be the last day that referee does an NHL game.

So it wasn't a penalty? Impeding a player skating full speed away from the puck?
As if it wasn't interference...

You try skating 35km/hr and stay on your feet with people illegally bumping into you.

Lol @dive

 

[Sergei Shirokov]

I always find it absolutely incredible how the best skater on the planet, falls down so easily

It's amazing how when there's a chance to score he can go 1 on 5, 1 on 4, 1 on 3 with the defenders all over him

When he's off the puck or not the focal point of the play it's like he's still learning how to skate.

 

[soothsayer]

Oilers are gonna steal this one. Easily their worst game of the playoffs.

They're going to pull a Canucks.

 

[jackjohnson]

Oilers getting superb goaltending. Vancouver dominant that period.

Canucks just shooting from everywhere. Its good but you also get shots that are easy save instead of making a deft pass to fool the goalie. Am not complaining but this is Oilers style hockey where they shoot it even from the middle of the ice

 

[Duodenum]

Canucks had the pressure but it's anyone's game still. Pettersson looks good but will it be too little too late?

If Oilers win the 3rd I don't see them losing the series. Canucks need to be smart and adjust the offense to jump on those rebounds. Need better screens as well.

 

[Fledgemyhedge]

I come in here to laugh at TOZ’s hilarious homer takes

 

[New User Name]

I've watched all the games of this series so far and IMHO, Vancouver would have the best chance against Dallas or Colorado.

Oilers just don't seem to have the team structure and team speed that the Canucks have.

 

[jackjohnson]

He's a big boy, he won't do it again next time now at least.

Not sure what you are talking about?

 

[Bizzare]

Wow I'm in shambles after this sick burn. Sometimes he did get penalized ask the refs.

You were just the expert on the rule, so you’re actually not? Colour me surprised.

Wasn’t meant as a burn was trying to have dialogue.

 

[Old Boys Club]

You know it's a spicy game when you've got the decade + old accounts of CP posters being unearthed for their yearly exodus onto HFBoards.

 

[TheOrganist]

When did JT Miller become so skilled? He makes genuinely impressive plays quite often.

 

[eviohh26]

I'm here to watch the Dives. 10/10

 

[Dust]

Oilers better in the 1st period, Canucks significantly better in the 2nd. Who takes the 3rd?

 

[Bertuzzzi44]

The Canucks are all over them, just dominating the game, should also get the benefit of calls going forward, time to burry a couple in the 3rd for Vancouver

 

[Angry Little Elf]

Luke Gazdic: “i thought the oilers dominated the period”

 

[Bizzare]

The common claim is that he left his feet after the hit.

Claim being the key word, Kornwall didn’t have the puck either …

 

[NyQuil]

neither team can score on the back ups, this is one crappy canada cup

That's not a real thing.

 

[Dust]

Not sure what you are talking about?

That makes two of us

 

[DarrylshutzSydor]

people illegally bumping into you.

this made me laugh, you don't expect to get "bumped" while playing hockey? What happened to this sport?

 

[MessierII]

Getting out of that period tied on the road is not bad I’ll take it. Big 3rd here

 

[SharksCyclops]

All this animosity just to play second fiddle to Calgary as the real western Canada team

 

[robertocarlos]

Where is Bieksa might be as big as where is Kate.
