Game 2, another late one. The Oil need to stay out of the box and put in a full 60 minute effort and hopefully redeem themselves tonight.

Lineups, no one really knows right now but it sounds like Gryba might be out and Benning in. Haven't heard anything about any changes to the forwards as of yet, maybe later on in the afternoon. Thornton will be a game-time decision for the Sharks.

We certainly won't be staying out of the box. That incompetent rat faced idiot Chris Lee has been assigned to the game, which pretty much ensures an incoherent **** show from the officials.

Remember the game where McDavid got slashed and hooked on a breakaway with no call in St. Louis followed up the next night by the gong show of a game in Arizona? Ya, it was this ****ing guy. Hands down the worst official in hockey that seems to find a way to "miss" a lot of calls on the Oilers, but somehow not "miss" anything the other way. A complete loser.

Wouldn't expect the league to actually use their brains before they make assignments. Holding these guys accountable with playoff assignments. Sure.

Just win baby.

 

[McWeber]

They should make a referee draft. GM's get to pick their refs for a playoff round based on place in the standings. Would never happen but I would ***** less knowing we could pick our poison.

 

[Prayfor97Preyfor97]

Alright, we have the first game jitters out of the way, its time to kick some ass!

Now, what do we do about that pesky Burns guy? I am thinking that if we put some small woodland creatures around the rink, his mountain man instincts might kick in and he would get distracted by the hunt.....

They should just eliminate the backpressure stick work and "tapping". I don't know when that all became legal but the NHL is famous for allowing things to creep into their game like obstruction and water skiing did in the 90's and the pick plays in the 2000's.

But it's the NHL. Led by the brain dead and reffed by the brain dead.

Oil win tonight 4-2.

Time to tie up this thing up ! Thinking now that the first game jitters are out we see a different team tonight. Little worried about patty he doesnt look right hope he is ok. Also would like slepy in for a game to see if he can spark his line oops someone already used jitters my bad.

I used to love Burns, thought he was hilarious. Now after one game I flipping hate his guts and can't stand his face. Amazing what playoffs do hey?

Go Oilers!

 

[The Batman]

Rebound game. I'm going to say McDavid and Lucic are going to be beasts again in this one.

 

[Prayfor97Preyfor97]

Go Oilers!

Yeah, I like him on Team Canada. In this series.... not so much.

Prey for McDavid!

 

[ElysiumAB]

I forget, do the same refs stay for the entire series or did Tim Peel go back to the Metaverse?

 

[kurtcobang]

I still think we are the better team. This is a winnable series if we stop the turnovers.
i expect a better game from a few guys that were invisable in game 1
Cant wait

 

[SM17]

We have Chris Lee and Kelly Sutherland today.

 

[Prayfor97Preyfor97]

We have Chris Lee and Kelly Sutherland today.

I was just about to say "At least it cant get much worse". Boom Chris Lee.

 

[Dorian2]

Should see a different team tonight. Go Oilers.

 

[t0nedeff]

hope to see Slep in for Iro.

 

[PinSeeker]

I was just about to say "At least it cant get much worse". Boom Chris Lee.

Yeah I hate him but home team record is 60% with him, and 69% with his partner. Our record is 6-1 with him so far this year.

 

[Prayfor97Preyfor97]

So, are we pumped? I'm pumped!!!!! Oilers are going to show everyone they are ready for the big games!

A little something to get the blood flowing:

 

[BoldNewLettuce]

What's a boy gotta do for a "clownshoes" chant after the next blown call?

 

[Diamondillium]

This series will be like the average Oilers game this season. Give up a quick one then overwhelm for the rest of it and come out ahead.

 

[Prayfor97Preyfor97]

Yeah I hate him but home team record is 60% with him, and 69% with his partner. Our record is 6-1 with him so far this year.

Stats can say whatever you want!

Thats actually pretty interesting. My eye test tells be I dont like him tho

A little something to get the blood flowing:

Sweet tune. Just saw them in Vancouver, crazy good show. Lol!

 

[TheGhost]

Hopefully the Oil can pull this one out. Chris Lee won't do us any favours though, he seems to hate the Oilers

Are you ****ing kidding me? We go from Tim Peel to Chris Lee? The NHL sure doesn't want us to advance. We're going to have to be elite tonight to beat the Sharks, and the refs. We can't face our own mistakes, the other team, and the refs, and be successful. We have to have a really solid game to overcome that ****.

****ing Christ. Lee is the worst ref in the game. **** you, NHL.
