GDT: [WCSF GAME 6] | Edmonton Oilers vs Anaheim Ducks | 5.07.17 | 5:00PM | SN

[Draiskull]

Hard to imagine a worse pairing than Nurse-Gryba.

Nurse-Benning is just as bad if not worse

 

[Draiskull]

Sunday game.. early game.. talks of Griffin Reinhart, Gryba and Fayne playing... doomed indeed

 

[BlackDogg]

Forgot it was an early Sunday game. Oh boy.

 

[CornKicker]

hope Adam Larsson had a good sleep cause he is about to play 30+ mins in regulation

DBZ reference?

 

[Bjornar Moxnes]

cam talbot is going to be mad, hes dropping a 35 save SO on the ducks tonight and the first person that touches him will eat a blocker. Mr Talboto will steal this one and then game 7 will be the connor mcdavid show.

I thought I was the one who started the Japanfied (Weebfied) surnames? Guess not.

 

[ohheyhemsky]

Hey guys, it's been a hell of a season! Cheers to all of you.

 

[Bjornar Moxnes]

Also skating.



7 defensemen skating = Larsson, Russell, Nurse, Benning, Gryba, Reinhart, Fayne.

If you make the CF, expect to get manhandled by Nashville (Most likely they advance). Believe it or not in a physical series losing Klefbom and Sekera doesn't hurt anywhere near as bad as in a skilled series. But anyways I wish you luck as I hate the Ducks more than any team right now.

 

[Draiskull]

Hey guys, it's been a hell of a season! Cheers to all of you.

No complaints.. despite the choke job last game everyone on the team should be proud of themselves... yes that includes Eberle...

Hopefully they give the fans a good game tonight... we have seen different versions of Oilers...tonight we see a team with backs to wall and facing elimination for the first time...

Hey guys, it's been a hell of a season! Cheers to all of you.

That it has. It has been a complete success regardless of the outcome of this game imo.
If you would have told us we would be in this exact situation to start this season we all would have taken it.
I just want a max effort tonight.

 

[vsove]

Time to contribute to the annual tradition of the Ducks blowing a 3-2 series lead.

 

[LaGu]

Hey guys, it's been a hell of a season! Cheers to all of you.

Well said! Cheers to you too.

It ain't over yet!

 

[Shibumi]

SN is reporting Sekera is out for the series. No word on Klef yet.

 

[Shibumi]

I would like to take the time to say whatever the outcome in the Oilers vs the refs game 6, I think we have witnessed a watershed season for the Oilers.

For the "fans" who are beaking that the Oilers choked in game five, you are all bitter morons. If the same thing happened to whichever teams you support, you would be just as disappointed. Clearly got jobbed on the third goal. If it is ruled correctly the face off is outside the Oilers zone with 15 seconds to go.

However I believe in karma, it would be nice to see it happen this season rather than next.

I said Oilers in 7 at the start of the series and I still think that is the way it goes.

Good luck to the boys tonight.

Thanks, I guess...?

 

[dssource]

I truly believe the Oilers are winning this one. McDavid said the other day we will see them for a game 7. I have faith in the captain.

I'm not ready for the season to end yet and I'm glad our captain feels the same way.

[Insert every cliche you want here]

Just win baby!

 

[Shibumi]

Worthwhile mentioning the refs have just as many wins as the Oilers this series and both have one more win than the Ducks do.

Can they award the Stanley Cup to the refs?

 

[Hockeyholic]

If theyre down and ever about to be eliminated Fowler Gibson and Vatenen are easy to target.

Yep. I'd have someone intentionally take out Gibson and have a player shoot the puck as hard as they can at a ref.

Here Here!

McDavid will be on a mission tonight. I'm expecting a full team effort. I predict they win by at least 2.

 

[Dashh]

Haven't shown myself here since the debacle last game. Couldnt even watch OT, had to read a book and look at the TV only sporadically. Turned off sports / radio for the last 2 days.

Hope they come out flying tonight. Hate the ducks

 

[shoop]

I'd start Fayne AND Reinhart and go 7D. With Klefbom dinged up, it'd be nice to have another option back there. If all goes well, Nurse could probably rover the 4th line a bit early on. Desharnais and Kassian both played less than 10 minutes last game. Either one could come out.

No Gryba, please.

Pretty astute. I 'd really like to see that.

 

[Hockeyholic]

Talbot really needs to come through. Albeit not all his fault, giving up 7, 4,4 goals isn't going to get it done.

 

[Da McBomb]

Do or die. Let's see what our boys are made of when they are facing elimination for the first time. Can they bounce back from that heartbreaking loss in game 5? Either way.. I'm proud of this team no matter what happens tonight. Hopefully this game will not involve any more stupid referee calls. Go OIL!

 

[jlockhart89]

O'Rourke and Hebert are the officials tonight, can't recall which (if any) games they've had for us this postseason.

 

[foshizzle]

Maroon needs to come off of McDavid's wing. He has been useless since late Feb/early March. I would love to see Kassian up there using his speed and size.
