Wow, crazy game!

Oilers meltdown coming...

 

[WetcoastOrca]

Wow! Thought that one was over. Oilers self destructing.

 

[Peen]

Fantastic save by Helly

 

[Peen]

i just think the jets have a bunch of overrated players and a bad coach so id rather see the oilers win this series lmao

 

[logan5]

Did they show a replay. I thought that last goal may have been tipped.

 

[Peen]

Not sure how no one scored a winner in the last few minutes

Everything was close

 

[mossey3535]

As predicted, Mike Smith is slowly turning back into a pumpkin....I do want the Oilers to win this one to prolong the series, but this is vintage brain fart Smith.

I mentioned earlier in the playoffs that Smith was just having a hot streak tracking but he was doing lots of wasted movement and other dumb stuff that actually makes it harder for him to make saves - but he was so hot it didn't matter. You see a lot of those issues are causing goals in this playoffs.

Hope oilers overpay smith and he crashes back down to earth

 

[Canucks LB]

lmao Oilers

Topline basically puts Pearson to shame in terms of empty-net points

Their coaching problem is actually worse because they are closer than us and they need to get rid of Maurice to take the next step IMO. He's an absolute dinosaur of a coach but I guess their assistants are better than ours.

This Oilers meltdown would be hilarious if it weren't so familiar as a Canucks fan....

 

[StreetHawk]

Hoping for a Carolina / Nashville long ot. Then back at it tomorrow.

what is the amount of ot they would need to play to delay tomorrow’s game to Tuesday. Last year the tb and cbs game pushed game 2 back.

 

[CherryToke]

Oilers fans were right. Archibald is a great spark plug type of player

 

[Canucks LB]

I know people have a big distaste for the leafs, But honestly.
Nothing makes me feel better in my Hockey Fandom (other than Canucks winning of course) Than watching the Oilers lose.
It's incredibly Gratifying.
They could still win this game, but Make no doubt about it, I hate the Oilers (Not so much the players lol )

I hope they get swept in 4 games, and We sign Mcdavid in a few years.

 

[Gstank]

Wow I stopped watching the Oilers games at 4-1 what happened

 

[Pastor Of Muppetz]

Nurse is a good player..don’t know why he has to resort to being a diver..and a big baby..

 

[Canucks LB]

Nurse actually reminds me a ton of Bieksa Honestly.
Very similar skillset

If bieksa had nurse’s size... kb played bigger than he was.

 

[Just A Bit Outside]

Come on Jets you sexy mothers.

 

[Billy Kvcmu]

Oilers should had overpaid more for Markstrom

 

[Peen]

Oilers should had overpaid more for Markstrom

He didn’t want to go to Edmonton (who would?)

 

[Peen]

This game has been way closer than the shot totals indicate IMO

 

[Mr. Canucklehead]

Man, this OT is intense.

 

[Mr. Canucklehead]

EHLERS!!!!

Oh my God. What a come back.
