Lol you are ridiculous. Excuse after excuse. Sharks were outplayed for 2 period tonight and then the Oilers sat back and played defensively. Oilers outplayed the Sharks in games 2, 3, 5 and 6. How did they get quite a few breaks?

Anyways, what a series win! Nice to see that after 11 years. So pumped!

Look at it this way. Either they will avenge us, or they will suffer the same fate. Glass half full, my friend.

The luck stuff is odd but the rest isnt that far off base.

The oilers are not a cup favourite. SJ was the worst team heading into the last month. But unless Jones giving up a bunch of softies is luck, I'm not sure where he got that from.

Jones was awesome all series. I don't know what you were watching. Frustrating how good he was.

Old grudges? The grudge started a long time ago, but that doesn't make it old. They swept us embarrassingly THIS WEEK, and Kesler and Bieksa are still two of the biggest pieces of **** in the league.

As a Flames fan the only thing I'll be doing is watching. On one team I hate the players and their success against us more than any team in the NHL and on the other the team doesn't really have any dirty, POS players but the fan base is the most annoying in the league by far.

I don't know how one could cheer for either to win, it's a series you just watch and then cheer against the winner next series.

It's almost as though they're not a one-man show. What gives?

Better sign Desharnais to a long term extension.

I was watching a goalie give up a softie in every single game but one. Doesn't matter how many big saves Jones made if he couldn't stop the easy ones.

Personally I feel it's a coin flip between Nashville and Edmonton to be the Western Conference representative in the Stanley Cup finals.

I think Anaheim is going to be very tough for the Oilers to get past.
