WCSF Game 1: Edmonton Oilers Vs Vegas Golden Knights | 6:30PM PT | ESPN, CBC, SN, TVAS

[leafsfan5]

Man McDavid turned the puck over like 20 times in the final 5 minutes, way too much hero hockey there

The decision to not pull the goalie was hilarious as well. I'm genuinely confused why they kept him in for so long

 

[EdJovanovski]

King Eichel stripped McDavis of the puck like 5 times tonight lmao.

 

[HockeyFan100]

McDavid's a bum

 

[Ace Rothstein]

The bigger issue is their D, but they did not handle those final 8 minutes well. VGK stacked the blue line; you chip, use your speed, and forecheck.

Yeah, Edmonton had a ton of possession but were completely non-threatening the last third of the third.

Series thread open….

WCSF: Vegas Golden Knights (P1) vs. Edmonton Oilers (P2) (VGK Lead 3-2)

First semifinal series has been set. This will be the first playoff meeting between these two teams. Edmonton won three of the four games in this year's regular season series. Who ya got?!

Vegas Golden Refs strike again

They kept the Sharts out of the playoffs, that's enough for me!

 

[MrvJets]

Vegas will even get stronger as the series goes on. They are going to finish the Oilers quickly.

Eichel wasn’t great tonight offensively but he made up for it with his defensive commitment.

 

[fsanford]

1st regulation loss for Oilers in like what 22 or 23 games

 

[Bounces R Way]

The guy knows his stuff. He's actually done a good job with this mess

I listened to an interview he did with Marek and Friedman. To hear him tell it he's reinventing the whole head coaching position.
He just plays McDavid and Draisaitl 25 minutes a night.

That's it lol

 

[Dust]

Edmonton has not won a series they won game 1 in a long time... so this is exactly as planned.

 

[Space Coyote]

Only if Oilers had a legit goalie in net.

 

[TheBeard]

I don't think anyone even noticed eichel tonight

It’s already started.

 

[Summer Rose]

What an entertaining game.

 

[Bounces R Way]

Eichel wasn’t great tonight offensively but he made up for it with his defensive commitment.

Been really impressed with Eichel's defensive quality all playoffs

 

[CrazyDuck4u]

If Edmonton's other players don't show up.. This will be a short series. They gotta get more scoring..Drai cant do this every game..

Oilers lose every game 1, this will not be a quick series.
