Lucic got schooled by Hertl. Hertle hammered him near the dot and I felt like the game changed from there.

Hahaha. Don't know why that's so hilarious to me but it really is.

That game was hard to watch. McDavid, McDavid, McDavid? Oh McDavid and McDavid? Yeah, McDavid and McDavid! McDavid.

Awesome win by the Sharks. Glad the Oilers were able to waste such a great game by Talbot.

In fairness to Lucic, Hertl is a monster. He has made a name for himself physically since he came into the league.


Kid is like a wrecking ball out there most nights.

Their pre-series comments were things like "it's just hockey...same game we played all year"

Had a felling this would happen...their start wasn't even all that good, two goal lead was pretty fortunate IMO

See how they respond

To be fair that anthem was pretty cool, putting the singer in the stands was neat and the Oilers should get credit for an original idea for once, unlike that stupid orange crush stuff they stole from the Denver Broncos

Some terribly undisciplined penalties by the Oilers too. That lack of composure by some surprised me.

Some fancy stats about shot pressure


@IneffectiveMath
As overtime games go this one was pretty lop-sided.

I played a drinking game with my girlfriend last night. We each had a sip everytime the name McDavid was said. We got really drunk.

If mclelland wasnt so stupid I think they could have won that game. He tired his top players out.

Oilers need to win four straight against San Jose to match Marc Spector's Oilers in 5 prediction.

This is what McLelland does. He did it at the World Cup with the under 24 team. Kept putting McDavid and Matthews out there, I swear they played six mins at the end of the game, they couldn't even skate anymore. I mean he had a bench full of superstar kids and still did it.

He got called out for it earlier this season by Mike Babcock after the Oilers played the Leafs.

He has horrible bench management skills. It's awesome.

I have an extra bounce in my step today and food tastes better than it usually does. Oilers must have lost. Then there's this...



She was probably pissed because she bet all her smokes the Oilers would win.

In fairness, what else can he do? Play The Tenderness more?

The Tenderness surprisingly had more TOI than McDavid, but that is due to the penalty kills.
