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

[BayStBullies]

Oh man, I hope the Canucks win game 6.

I want full blown off-season chaos with Leafs, Canes, and Oilers all choking/underwhelming!

It's all about the small victories. I hope you find your happiness.

The Oilers honestly embarrassed themselves tonight with those antics. Love to see JT end the game (and win me $500).

Watching McDavids lack of effort makes me think he’s done with that team

 

[22Brad Park]

McDavid let his guy go bigtime and burned.2 ends in a rink

 

[Billy Kvcmu]

First time this post season the Canucks played like the team that won their division

 

[Dust]

And 2, and 3

Hmmm, hard no on that one.

 

[Slapshot_11]

Its pretty embarrassing oiler fans talking about ep diving all season when their captain wants to go swimming everytime a player breathes on him

 

[I am toxic]

'nucks up 3-2 on the refs

Nice to see the oil come out to witness the 'nucks victory

 

[Three On Zero]

McDavid let his guy go bigtime and burned.2 ends in a rink

Just nightly things for McDavid, play 30 minutes a night but refuse to defend

 

[Ghost of Murph]

I hope the refs for the next game took note of all the diving this game. Rewarding that kind of crap is an embarrassment, especially when one of the faces pf the league is a big culprit.

Scoring titles are not won by defending!

 

[WetcoastOrca]

Man! Rewatched the winning goal.
That’s absolutely brutal defense by McDavid. Just coasting out there.

 

[Petey But Really Jim]

The Oilers just straight up don't trust 1/3 of their lineup. They don't trust either of their supposed top 2 goaltenders. The Oilers are a house of cards at this point. I'm honestly not sure what Cody Ceci and Vincent Desharnais supposedly do and Darnell Nurse is just a cap construction nightmare. If McDavid and Draisaitl don't win the next two games collectively, it's probably not gonna happen.

and what if they do? they gonna play em 30 each from the start vs dallas? edmonton is mid af

 

[Dust]

Game 3 as well, they fell victim to score effects though

You could argue they were better, but I don't think "clearly" fits in that game.

 

[22Brad Park]

Just nightly things for McDavid, play 30 minutes a night but refuse to defend

I think they over playing him but he has to cover Miller there with barely any time left

 

[bambamcam4ever]

McDavid : What else am I suppose to do with the team that they put around me? It's never my fault

"Defense is my teammates' job"

 

[Some Other Flame]

Soo.. typical McDavid then

 

[tabness]

why do Crosby fans come out when McDavid (admittedly inevitably always) falters in the playoffs? the insecurity is insane lol

Watch them send in Kelly Sutherland for game 6

 

[Coffey]

Been a great series. All one goal games. Hope it goes to 7.

 

[thekernel]

I'm just so glad that Oilers didn't steal this off some nasty Corey Perry goal or something

 

[Pacific Canuck]

Best game of the series imo. Both teams played good, no serious mistakes either way.

Several weak calls by the refs though.

 

[JAK]

"Defense is my teammates' job"

If my teammates could score more, we wouldn't lose

 

[Paulinbc]

Hyman wore the wrong jersey into the rink and it all went downhill from there

[RedRocking]

No idea how Picard play. Do or die for Edmonton. Do they go back to their number 1 or stick with Picard? Or putting Skinner back is throwing in the towel?

Def stick with Pickard
