I'll admit it's easy to be sportsmanlike when the team you are cheering for wins. But here goes:
- Oilers went from the PP merchants and two man team I barked about all season to a team where third liners like Janmark scored goals, to a huge PK during the playoffs to good defense. Pissy and McDiver were never the problem. Even skinner was good enough. Never bobrovsky 10 bell save type goalie, but he was better than ol stinkeye smith. That was an oilers team we've never seen before.
- As somebody else posted earlier- Ekholm was the best signing in a long time. An actual defenseman. Better than Nurse.
- Oilers put it together against the stars and against the panthers for a few games. Lots of folks said those teams gave up, but I think Knobby actually adjusted.
- Still can't believe s**tbag Leon didn't get suspended for the hit on Barkov. Oilers fans can cry all they want about officiating, but if that hit was on tweedledee or tweedledum there'd have been a suspension. Sorry, that was a tangent again.
- In the end probably too much riding the Mctwits all season and all playoffs.
- I've had a few and that wasn't that sportsmanlike after all. What a great night.
