I still think the Canucks win that series even without Demko. They haven't been at their best so far, but overall they're a much better team than LA.

Every series is 3-1 and we had a sweep as well.

Not sure how that makes McMickey and friends the favourites.

Even Washington looked competitive against the Rangers. Islanders have competed with Carolina.

LA might be the worst team in the playoffs. They are shameful quitters who shouldn’t even show up for Wednesday.

Yeah. This has been a pretty unexciting frist round..Canucks had the shocking comeback, but other than that, pfffft

Maybe if Dallas can tie the series tonight, Dal-Vgk will gobthe distance.

They must show up for Wednesday. They need to serve their punishment for being a disgrace and that punishment is going to Edmonton.

People in the east don't know the Kings have sucked since the start of December. Honestly though they have been the better team in 2 of 4.

That’s not enough. They must spend their summer in Edmonton.

I’ve never seen the media do that before.

Why though?

He their childhood friend? What's with the personal investment in ####ing oilers.

Once McDavid leaves they won't get the love they get now.

By the media and the officials.

point being if the Kings are who we think they are the Oilers have zero chance against the real big dogs

Colorado, Vegas, or Dallas is coming out of the west IMO. Probably Colorado.

I’m holding on to hope about that post that was here a couple weeks ago saying McDavid is almost 100% going to Toronto when his deal is up. I’m so sick of oilers fans and their arrogance thinking that the league owes them everything because they have McDavid. Yes Toronto will also be annoying but I really hope it comes true

Lmao you changed your tune quickly. A few days ago you were suggesting that the Kings had the advantage and that they were going to win the series and defending this trash Kings team.

Oilers got the luckiest draw I have seen in years. Basically a free pass to round 2, and if Demko is out a free pass to round 3.

[Erick Estrada]

The Kings are terrible. Stuck in the hell of being just good enough to grind out a season and claim a bottom playoff seed and nowhere good enough to win a first round series.

That hell sounds familiar!

[Paulie Walnuts]

Did it snow in Edmonton? PLD might start scoring on his own net tomorrow to get the summer started.

I said they have been the better team in 2 of 4...my tune is the same. Both teams are average. Oilers fluked out a game 4 win, that obviously gives them a massive advantage in terms of winning the series. Statistically the Kings did have the advantage after the road split. Things change, duh

[jayswin]

lol. The Oilers are head and shoulders better than the Kings dude. Your various rivalry narratives are bumping into each other these playoffs, you're all over the place trying to say different things.

[direwolf]

Sadly, unless the Kings can figure out how to find the back of the net, this series is pretty much over. It'll be up to the Canucks to take the Oilers out, and I think they have the firepower and the defence to do it, even if Demko is still injured.

so you disagree that the Kings were the better team in games 2 and 4...do I need to bring out the deserve to win o meter?

I am in the same place, odds change daily...obviously what I said a week ago is different. Did you have a different opinion of the Stars chances 3 days ago? Because I sure as hell did.

#### some of you are so wrapped up in personal vendettas against posters, like you calling me out in a thread I hadn't even posted in about the Panthers. IF you want to crown the Oilers go for it, the series has been even. Oilers stole game 4, most if not all advance websites would agree with me. If they don't steal game 4 its 2-2.

Obviously at 3-1 the odds shift, duh

I know I am hoping the Kings bring the same effort and probably win Game 5, put some pressure on those losers. Rittich looks better than Talbot did IMO.
