So pumped for tonight! I've been on this board for 11 years and haven't really got to see any Oiler playoff hockey. After watching terrible teams for 9 of the last 11 years and missing every year, it's nice to finally watch a playoff game. I feel we matchup well vs the Sharks and played them well down the stretch in meaningful games. I think it will be a 6 or 7 game series. Whatever happens though, it's nice to know there are pieces in place to contend to get back in for the forseeable future. Let's go Oilers!

Sharks will elevate their game for the post-season. Curious to see how/if they are able to handle 97.

The only thing of real interest to me is whether McDavid is ready to be an elite performer when everything is on the line.

If it's $200,000 that won't even be a record for an Edmonton sports event. The Eskimos hit$360,000 or so a couple of years ago.

How many people were at the Esks game though? Probably double.

Flames were the reason a second round battle of alberta didn't happen in 2006 - Edmonton will be the reason it doesn't happen in 2017

Oh he has shown that he IS an elite performer, his diving performance has been perfect 10 across the board.

What is the over under for the first McDavid facewash, and the inevitable retaliation?
I'm thinking first whistle on McDavid's first shift.
