WCSF - Game 6 - Oilers vs. Knights | 5.14.23 | Rogers Place | 8:00PM | SN

[Video Nasty]

Congrats to Vegas. Disappointing ending for McDavid and the Oilers.

Management needs to keep improving this team. It stings right now to wait another year for McDavid to banish the nonsense, no doubt.

Again, congrats to Vegas. It’s going to be an interesting series, especially if they match up with Seattle.

Connor McD

“People think we are a 2 player team…”



You indeed are a 2 player team lol. One of the worst 5 on 5 teams I’ve ever seen. Just can’t play even strength hockey.

The shots were like 41-21...Vegas didn't have the puck the entire 3rd period. EDM had a million chances. As a neutral fan this is a dumb statement.

 

[hangman005]

Good series Oilers Fan, the ones here have been pretty damn decent to all 5 of us Vegas fans...

 

[GiveAFlyingPuck]

People try to put us down
Cause we didn't get out of the second round
Talkin' bout my generational talent...

 

[Stark]

Pretty sure BoHorvat53 isn’t an oiler fan lol

Can't disagree. By the end of the night consuming beer has got better of me.

 

[PensPlz]

You can't blame McDavid. You couldn't ask for more from a player. The Oilers need a good goalie

They got beat by Adin Hill...

 

[Mike C]

WWhat a game!

What a life!

 

[snag]

The Oilers definitely didn't earn any respect in that handshake line

wow

Only true losers gleen anything positive from the losing end of a handshake line.

 

[Three On Zero]

Yes.. the 3rd was an embarrassment....not

Oilers went out like champs.. learn and come back stronger next season

Wasn’t that what was said when they lost to Colorado last year?

 

[D1az]

Just woke up and saw the score. Woodcroft played Skinner again?
Coach should move on after this.

 

[LTIR]

Suffocating defense from Vegas. Horrific goaltending from Edmonton. Just absolutely horrific. Terrible coaching decision

Not sure what you were watching... It wasn't suffocating at all . Oilers attacked hard and got plenty of quality chances . Vegas defended well but we're much better than suffocating LA Kings who trapped even when down a goal

 

[Ocoee]

They got beat by Adin Hill...

And how can you blame McDavid for that?

 

[Artorius Horus T]

McDavid 8 years in the NHL, no cups.
Feel for the dude.

Oilers have tanked so many times to get the best player from a draft, yet they have not even once gotten themselves to the finals.

Last time when they did, sure it was a special circumstances and all, but the team was built so much differently, yes yes different era but still.

 

[MrvJets]

Glad the scumbags and Kane are out what an enjoyable evening.

Only true losers gleen anything positive from the losing end of a handshake line.

That just went entirely your head, huh?

 

[forsbergavs32]

Congrats Vegas, put on a defensive clinic in the 3rd.

Edmonton needs a retool badly, can't expect McDrai to outscore the other issues on the team. That was the Avs probably for quite awhile. The Oilers need a better goalie and defense.

 

[trellaine201]

They got beat by Adin Hill...

I say he stole the game. Teams need that.

 

[BusQuets]

This was the first year I really thought they were a legit cup threat.

I didn’t really consider the Oilers a cup threat any year before this.

Well you can see it like that or you can see it like this:
Almost everyone on Oilers team had peak seasons and it still wasn't enough for a conference finals.

 

[Mike C]

They got beat by Adin Hill...

They beat themselves. Skinner caved to the moment and Woodcroft committed coaching malpractice for starting him

The Password is CHOKE

 

[BTP]

We're really about to see a Seattle - Vegas Conference final.

I dont know if I should be laughing at the west or the NHL for having 2 expansion teams be the best in the conference.

 

[danktopshelf]

Wasn’t that what was said when they lost to Colorado last year?

Lol @ the entire country of Canada. Again. 30 years and counting baby!!!!

 

[SeanMoneyHands]

Such class by Draisaitl by refusing to shake hands. Wow. Unreal.

 

[snag]

That just went entirely your head, huh?

huh is right. is that sentence finished?

 

[Adele Dazeem]

Tick tock.
I know I aggrevated some Oilers fans last year, but what I said holds true now more than ever.
Draisaitl's days in Edmonton are winding down.
Before you say well, Pittsburgh, Chicago and Tampa were able to keep their superstar duos, the Oilers will do the same.
The difference is that the three teams above actually won something. When you keep losing - change is imminent.

 

[Alexei Yashvalev]

Nurse and Campbell contracts killed the Oilers. Still a D, F and G short.

I don't know if you could blame the Oilers for the Campbell contract. Dude had seemed reasonably competent for a few years before crashing from .914 to .888 when he joined the Oilers.

It's not like the Matt Murray trade the leafs made where everyone on the planet knew it was awful when it was made.
