i had this tonight and it still wasn't nearly as good as taking game 3

Churros in ice cream?!? Genius!

 

[Bobby9]

Hopefully the Canucks players think the same. It’s 2-1 and every game has been a one goal game. Getting cocky now is a great way to lose this series.

True. It’s could be 3-0 Canucks.

 

[Bizzare]

I mean it was a cross check. It's pretty light as far as a cross check goes, and it probably didn't warrant the retaliatory slash, but he's correct.

I mean it’s not…

Cross-checkingThe action of using the shaft of the stick between the two hands to forcefully check an opponent

 

[Slapshot_11]

The Edmonton oilers have only scored 2 goals without Drai/McD on the ice in all the playoffs. They are a two man show. Look at the ice times tonight. Even if they somehow get by the Canucks does anyone think they can win a cup like this? The Oiler larping media outlets have convinced everyone this is what a cup favorite looks like:

Thats insane that bouchard was on the ice half the game in a non ot game

 

[thaman8765678]

We’re trying, but gosh darnit, Ken Holland surrounded McDavid and Draisaitl with the Guangdong Tigers

Are we supposed to believe a team with:

Hyman
Kane
Nugent Hopkins

Is zero help? I mean, they have five top two line players, including the best player in the world.

 

[SiZ]

Thats insane that bouchard was on the ice half the game in a non ot game

I think it's more due to the fact that they can't trust Nurse and Ceci

 

[ChaoticOrange]

True. It’s could be 3-0 Canucks.

With average AHL goaltending it’s 3-0 Oilers. Long way to go yet.

 

[Video Nasty]

Just like you predicted a series sweep before the series started.

You have the wrong guy. Man, Vancouver fans are some of the worst liars.

 

[Slapshot_11]

With average AHL goaltending it’s 3-0 Oilers. Long way to go yet.

With demko its 4-0

Hyman has played well, but Kane and RNH have been ghosts and done nothing without 97/29 these playoffs.

 

[BoHorvat 53]

Your biggest star is 5’6 and has been an absolute ghost all playoffs long. Do you want him fighting? McDavid has better things to do than fight. We have personnel for that. They just need to do their job.

With the exception of Nils Aman and Linus Karlsson (4th liners who played their first game of the playoffs), everyone on the Canucks has a Corsi For % above 52% when sharing the ice with Quinn Hughes, and without Hughes sharing ice time with them only 3 players have a CF% above 50% (Hronek at 50.98%, Hoglander at 51.19% and Juulsen at 55.56%).

But then again, you guys have the almighty Evan Bouchard! Hughes has nothing on him - I can understand why you think he's been an "absolute ghost" relative to the Oiler's "Norris" defenseman

 

[DFAC]

 

[TheBeard]

Neither of these teams are remotely in the same class as Colorado/Dallas.

 

[ChaoticOrange]

With demko its 4-0

Demko’s knees are string cheese; and even he couldn’t win four games when three have been played

 

[Petey But Really Jim]

Who is 5'6?

No team in NHL history has ever won the cup with their top 2 forwards playing half the game. They’re going to run out of gas. The fact that Knoblauch thinks this is their recipe to success is mind blowing. And here I thought Jay Woodcroft was bad for this.

I hope the city of Vancouver is prepared should they lose in game 7

 

[Slapshot_11]

Unfortunate play but not suspension worthy

Will probably be a fine

 

[Dust]

With demko its 4-0

That Demko and his time travel abilities.

No wonder Bouchard was making so many mistakes tonight. Guy could hardly skate and handle the puck. He was dying out there. My god, over half the game in regular time?! That's insane.

Dude what are you talking about? I assume you mean Hughes @ 5'10". I'm confused, Hughes doesn't cheapshot.

 

[archangel2]

Oiler fans should be happy. All the golf courses in Edmonton are open and taking bookings

 

[Slapshot_11]

Demko’s knees are string cheese; and even he couldn’t win four games when three have been played

Oilers would've forfeited the last one knowing they had no chance

 

[PG Canuck]

With average AHL goaltending it’s 3-0 Oilers. Long way to go yet.

Now do it with Demko in net

 

[Draino]

With average AHL goaltending it’s 3-0 Oilers. Long way to go yet.

Lol. Cope harder pal. Canucks literally have an AHL goalie in net. Perhaps you should consider that outside of one line your team has done absolute jack shit in the playoffs. Thats three lines of players that just eat up the clock or get caved in. "Cup Favorites".
