I also note that McDavid is something of a soloist.

I like that Staples calls McAvi a bit of a wanker.

I've settled on that I prefer the Oilers to advance. They're having serious trouble with the 12th seed. They're not going past the first round.

This is the correct answer. Always cheer for oilers losses.

Even if they win the lottery they won’t do #### with it. They are pathetic always will be

I'm not scared they will do well if they win 1st overall again I am legit sad for these poor 1st overall and high picks that pretty much get ruined by that team

You're going to have the Pens, Rangers and Oilers (hopefully) in the lottery. That's some hefty competition in the draft lottery shenanigans arena. Possibly also the Leafs as a strong dark horse. Just missing the Yotes for the full complement.

Oilers sure can’t bitch about the officiating tonight. This is their 5 PP of the night. Hawks have had 1.

Feels like the Oilers have spent half the game on the powerplay.

But yeah, the refs totally have it out for them.

Athanasiou with some A+ embellishment - not on the penalty itself, but he's holding his face the second he gets touched. Hilarious.

Also I do not understand why McDavid isn't the puck carrier for PP entries. It's alwyas Klefbom. If you want to back the PK off the line this isn't hard.

It’s a special, magical oilers power play.

If you listen to any given Oilers game on Ched you've got Bob Stauffer scoffing at the refs constantly for being so unfair to the grease, even calling officials out by name often. Literally stuff like "Augh way to go ref, you sure blew that call McCauley" or whatever ref it might be. The most bafflingly unprofessional broadcast in the league, and I say that even setting aside my burning dislike for the Oilers.
