But what about Pickard? My money is that we see Pickard again this series.

Thanks, you're legitimately always wrong, so I know how to profit. Bet Oilers to win Game 1, then double. Through game 4. Just need 800 in bank to get at least $100. That's 12.5 interest free tax free income. Zero chance Dallas sweeps. You're worse then Drake for predictions. That's a tough thing to do, but here you stand. I'll quote this when I win with a bet receipt.

I'll take the bet.

 

[Cup or Bust]

It will be interesting to see how the Oilers match up compared to Dallas compared to the Canucks. Dallas looks really good.

 

[ohcomeonref]

Yeah that great Canucks depth of having to play Pettersson with Mikheyev. Such a difficult thing to do. And a goalie that played like 5 NHL games. Wow, super tough.

If you think Silovs played poorly you're not worth conversing with.

 

[Mr Positive]

Oilers depth is underrated. Several players have emerged over the course of the playoffs. Holloway is the main one. We have been playing without Henrique last round, and he's day to day so that could be a boost.

The Oilers will have the special teams advantage. This will be a close series

 

[Iggys Dome]

From my limited viewings, Dallas might be the deepest team in the NHL. They can quite literally roll 4 lines and three pairings and they are fine. Not to mention Otter is a beast. They wore down the Avalanche with just wave after wave with each line. I'm honestly impressed by them.

If the Stars are healthy, I think they take this in 5.

 

[le_sean]

If you think Silovs played poorly you're not worth conversing with.

I never said he played poorly. All I said is that he’s a 3rd string goalie. A goalie deemed not good enough to be in the NHL most of the time. He played well and that’s exactly what the problem is for your PP dependent team.

 

[ThrowDemTongs]

Which team can drill a 7-well pad faster

 

[Spawn]

I expect more greatness from this guy.

It was nice stomping former Flames in Zadorov and Lindholm this past series. Tanev is next.

In all sincerity, good luck to the Stars and their fans. Any mockery I post is not directed towards you, but rather any bitter Flames/Cancuks/Leaf fans.

The Stars were the best team in the West this season for a reason. Hopefully its a good series.

That still not enough separation, try posting next week.

How are Tanev's numbers against 97 & 29 throughout his career in Calgary?

 

[Connor McConnor]

Nostalgic series match up

They always ended up poorly for us except for one year, I’m not hopeful this year will be any different

Oilers have the most 5v5 goals in the playoffs.

Thats how i see it too. Their forward depth is absolutely insane, cant remember a team ever looking that deep. Their gonna eat Nurse Ceci Desharnais and Kulak alive. And like ya said not to mention their defense is so deep. I think Mcdavid and Draisatl are too good to lose in 4 tho, so i predicted Dallas in 6

 

[Spawn]

Oilers in 6

 

[le_sean]

Oilers have the most 5v5 goals in the playoffs.

You played the Kings and a 3rd string goalie. Who f***ing cares?

 

[Chris5225]

Dallas is deeper but Edmonton's high end skill is much better. In the end I think Dallas takes it but it will be close.

 

[Spawn]

You played the Kings and a 3rd string goalie. Who f***ing cares?

Seems like you do lol

 

[KingAlfie11]

Dallas is just to deep and good for Edmonton to handle. Dallas in 5

 

[Divine]

Oilers have the most 5v5 goals in the playoffs.

They also played Talbot, Rittich, and Silovs. It's really not saying much.

 

[PAZ]

Stars in 5

 

[le_sean]

Seems like you do lol

I’m not the one trying to say a team’s 40% PP isn’t the reason they are winning

Try again, smart guy

Special teams are important. More at 11.

You said the Oilers are PP dependent. I pointed out that they are leading the playoffs in 5v5 goals. Don't care which goalies it was against.

 

[Rowlet]

I think Dallas takes this, but you can't count out McDavid and Draisaitl, they show up when needed. I think they take a few games off them.

Cheering for Tanev to keep doing his thing.
