TF Wolanksy scored an amazing goal in that game last night.

The one king the oilers should have drafted and they dont draft him.

The oilers sure don;t know how to pick the tiny players. Could have had debrincat or tf wolansky and took yamamoto instead.

4-1 Oil Kings after 2! Turned a 1-0 deficit into a big lead with an amazing 20 minutes. Neighbours with a highlight reel solo rush and goal to cap it off.

Edit: 6-1 Final, we’re Central Division champs!

I wonder if they will change the logo at Center Ice to the Oil Kings logo? The Oilers could see what an Edmonton playoff teams logo is like up close.

Seriously I wish them a long run, I am home April 5 and would love to take in some playoff hockey! In the meantime I have a few buddies excited I am gone as they get my playoff tix till I am home!

I wonder if WPG drafts Savoie and is able to convince him to come play for them.

I'll predict that the OKs lose in the Eastern Final to Prince Albert.

Although it's interesting that PA and Saskatoon are in the same bracket, so one of the Top 2 teams in the East won't be making it to the final. And Saskatoon has a chance against PA in a 7 game series.

Big game 4 win for the boys.

You can definitely see the lack of playoff experience so far, but the boys are battling.
