I agree I think we don't need to worry. Oilers got this.Vegas are beatable.
We played our worst game in 2 months and still could have won.
Kid has a birthday next year and the year after and the year afterGonna miss most the game
At my wife’s parents tomorrow for our sons birthday
Oilers better get this damn win!
The Oilers playing at their best can trump any team. Gonna have to do that tonight.Vegas are beatable.

They say your not in trouble until you lose one at homeI think the boys bounce back in a big way tonight, but even if they go down 0-2 it’s far from a death sentence, they’ve shown they can win 3-4 in a row.
I'm starting to wonder about mcdavid, he hasn't been him self. He was a give away machine last game. I don't think it's his skating or lower body because he is still flying. It's something to do with his upper body or hands the way he continues to fumble the puck. Amd he isn't shooting much either.....Is Ryan Rishaug full of it, or is McDavid actually banged up
That's how I see it too. We looked outclassed and yet it was tied in the third and a dumb bench minor stopped a potential 6 on 5 comebackVegas are beatable.

This is the kind of thing that gets me is that the league and media prop certain teams and in the case of Jersey its been all season. You'd think they were world beaters. I saw them as first round fodder. The Rangers had different ideas. Like I've said all along Devils don't have the kind of forward group that is very suited for playoff intensity. They're pretty small.I thought so, as well, but I feel it's partly because a lot of the media were really clamoring to call them the "dark horse" of this year; it got to the point that we sort of became indoctrinated to the idea, imo
Maybe he can make a wish when blowing out the candles..Why does your son want to do anything other than watch the Oilers on his birthday?
I still have PTSD from the last time.Just before the start of the season I posted in the hot takes thread on the mains that the Oilers would play the Hurricanes in the final and win in 7. Still could happen.
If it was then good! F*** that. I don't want to die of a heart attack while I'm still in my 20s. The stress would be unbearable.Maybe that all-Canadian Final thing was a bit premature eh.
I was hoping for that but it looks like the Leaves have fallen, just like my mountain ash tree.Maybe that all-Canadian Final thing was a bit premature eh.
I don't like the Leafs but I still say they take that series. They have a horrible tendency to take their foot off the gas and get stomped but they'll snap out of it. I also don't think Bobrovsky is that goodMaybe that all-Canadian Final thing was a bit premature eh.
I’ll take it.My prediction of an oilers hurricanes final still stands.
Desharnais hasn't been great at clearing the crease. He was standing right beside Mark Stone when Stone scored Vegas' third goal.You'll probably be changing your name. Jay gives extra rope to Desharnais because he is a RD and he likes that he is really good at clearing the crease, and his replacements wouldn't be. I see the Kulak-Desharnais pairing as very complementary. Also there is that we are down forwards. If we go 11-7 there isn't enough depth behind Desharnais to bump. If we are going with some rookie or even Demers I doubt we come ahead. And btw I am in favor of scratching Desharnais besides all that. But, we could also just go 11-7 with him and just give him a short leash
Honestly Carolina is usually underrated. They had such an amazing D, probably the best in the playoffs with that Slavin there. Plus Burns, Pesce, Skjei. Great forwards and G as well

Hmm..Here's a plan. Give your son his gift early so he's happy whether you go with them or not. One hour before it's time to leave, pretend you have stomach cramps and stumble to the bathroom. Make discomfort noises to gain sympathy. You're wife will then say it's best you stay home. Once they leave, you're home free. Enjoy the game but look out the window once in a while to be sure no one returns early.Gonna miss most the game

I may or may not have used that tactic a couple of times in the ‘90s.Hmm..Here's a plan. Give your son his gift early so he's happy whether you go with them or not.

That's because he was covering Stephenson, anticipating a shot there and doing a stick lift. In general our PK has been awful and I'm not sure why. I would say that Desharnais may be overrated in that role if it's true that it's a big reason why Jay likes to keep him aroundDesharnais hasn't been great at clearing the crease. He was standing right beside Mark Stone when Stone scored Vegas' third goal.
It's not really a positive outcome for me if the Leafs win. I just don't see the Panthers as that great, just on a hot streak. I've actually been a bit of a Panthers fan for a long time actually. I'm just realistic about itUser name checks out.
I doubt that happens but I’m hoping it does.
