Silovs got tired of carrying so many passengers

Silovs,has been a blessing g.Wtf happened to the leaders of this team tonight.Boeser was absolute shit.Miller was a non factor.

Well, nothing ever comes easy for this team haha. Oh well, onto game 7, try to wipe their asses from this diarrhea explosion.

Oilers full marks, their season on the line, and they played like it, every man. Draisaitl was possessed today.

Nothing I can comment on canucks really, just have short term memory, and play like you want it. This series deserved a game 7, let's bring this bitch home Monday!

 

[deadinthewater992]

Really hope they have the will to compete come Monday.

Sometimes, the 'bounce back' games just run their course and the team is done.

Hope this isn't the case.

 

[Bourne Endeavor]

The whole team should be completely embarrassed by that performance. From start to finish they were off, and it got worse from there. For the first time this series nobody looked good.

No excuses either. The reffing was fine, the Oilers were vulnerable and they just blew it.

The powerplay is completely unacceptable and Tocchet or whoever needs to do something different. We cannot go 0/4 again.

Go back to Vancouver, get your shit together and do something that hasn't happened in 13 years: win a series in Vancouver.

 

[Jack Burton]

FFFFFFFFFFFuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu**************KKKKKKKKK!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[TruKnyte]

This team be cooked. I wouldn’t blame Silovs at all for this game, the guys in front of him didn’t even get off the plane

 

[DFAC]

Flush this one down the toilet

 

[Just A Bit Outside]

Embarrassing effort.

Oilers weren’t even good. Nucks were just awful.

1 game.

No excuses.

 

[Flik]

Regardless of what happens on Monday, this has been an absolute blast of a season and posting on these forums has been so much fun with y'all

Silovs turned back into a pumpkin, Oilers discovered we wilt under hard 2 man forecheck.

Tocchet failed to adjust to their adjustment, and for the second series straight didn't drop more forwards to relieve the forecheck pressure on his D. He didn't pull Silovs when he should have. They obviously haven't worked on the PP. A lot of this is on him. I get that they're on house money and he's still learning what the playoffs is about like the team is but come on. This is coaching 101.

 

[Mr. Canucklehead]

Millers line struggling as much as it did really gave the team no chance of winning. I think the other 3 lines played pretty well all things considered. Hoglander-Lindholm-Pettersson had some good shifts and the only goal, and the bottom 6 played fine. Miller seemed slow, lethargic, and checked out after the first.

It made me wonder if he was sick or something - very uncharacteristic performance from that line.

 

[Tact]

Tocchet: Do not get too low! Back to earth and be ready for game 7. We’re tied 3-3 going back home. We’re in a good position here.

We need leadership Tocchet after that performance.

 

[Svencouver]

Canucks absolutely need to win the 2nd period next game. Getting caved in like they have in almost all of their losses in this series in the middle frame is just a guaranteed recipe for disaster that they've been overly fortunate to overcome to this point

 

[Bourne Endeavor]

Ryan S. Clark, you are up buddy with your prediction.

Anyways, burn this game tape and play better at home for game 7.

It's time for the dark horse legend of ESPN to show himself

This is me, too. Obviously I don’t like an effort like tonight, and I hope we get better in Game 7 - but we are playing with house money at this point and it’s been an absolute riot.

Hope we can throw some adversity Edmonton’s way in Game 7 - they didn’t have to work for squat tonight.

 

[mathonwy]

This series was going 7. Yer only kidding yourself if you honestly thought otherwise.

Silovs is in net. That's the only decision.

 

[BenningHurtsMySoul]

It's not when you lose, it's how you lose. And that was pretty much worst case scenario.

Oilers big five had their way and put up big numbers. McDavid was McDavid. Bouchard continues to kick the shit out of us with 3 more points and a +4.

Skinner was barely tested but now must feel confident with a win. Other end - Silovs with his worst game of the playoffs. I think the run might be over. That 3rd goal was an absolute backbreaker.

But above all else - the powerplay continues to sewer this team. Two early chances with one f***ing shot, and a complete muffin of a 5 on 3 with the chance to pull within one. Tocchet should be flipping over tables after that abomination.

Miller and Boeser with complete no shows. Very disappointing.

I know this team has consistently made it happen, but they've really put themselves into a box here. Oilers have 100% of the momentum.

 

[Orca Smash]

As I said with all the hot takes after last win and them starting skinner thinking its going to be a sure win, hockey is random, this fanbase should know this more then any other, series is not over until its over and the franchise has a rough history as we all know being clutch.

Hopefully they show up game 7.

 

[Bubbles]

The Canucks have played one game this whole series...game 5.

Really this series the Oilers have played better.

That aggressive PK in Game 5 has since disappeared again. It's a Jekyl and Hyde team.

The first period was pretty solid. Wheels came off after that, though.

 

[iFan]

the way they played tonight was not a team worth cheering for. I'm kinda over Pettersson, from his bitching to win now and not showing up when the team is winning, wants to get paid the big bucks but becomes casper the ghost.

 

[AD16]

That was embarrassing. They didn’t bother showing up.

Maybe I’m a bad fan but I don’t have much faith in these guys winning game 7 when the two best players in this series are on the other side and your best player (Hughes) has been largely neutralized.

 

[Svencouver]

Also regardless of what happens the team needs to hire a new PP coach over the summer, and badly. This team is plenty talented with the man advantage, I feel like - more than having Demko back - this series is over if we were better on the PP.

 

[dez]

Boeser Miller look toast, they've been carrying this team the entire playoffs while Petey mopes around. In the playoffs you need everyone going or else guys fatigue out. On to Game 7, Demko time.

well he's been carrying this team all playoffs because Pettersson decided to suck
