Looks like Oilers fans are whining again about not being given a top 4 spot. They played 2 more freaken games than Dallas. Get over it.

seriously, they have 2 players who contribute to winning and every team knows that. It is evident that in this series they have 13 goals and McAvi and Raisaitl are involved in 12 of them.
No way they will go far this year, this series isn't over but the Hawks have them by the throat and I love it.

They should get a #1 or #2 40 point+ defenceman that can score goals and be clutch.
That Jeff Petry guy looked pretty amazing for the Habs, I wonder what ransom they had to give to get a solid guy like that?

Wait, I thought they had that in Schultz, Bear or Bouchard? Look at all that Norris potential...

Its fun to watch Chaisson, Neil, Smith, Russell, and Gully, and not miss a single one of them.
You know that team with those guys is going a whole lot of nowhere

He's no longer Staples favorite, he's been supplanted as the Oilers top prospect, and he's still a bad skater.

Is it just me or has all of Draisaitl's goals come as he's standing watching the play and the puck just bounces out to him?
He's got talent, I'll give him that. I mean he has used that talent to his personal benefit but it seems like he does not quite have the bus driving characteristic and his talent has made him look better than he is.
I think he really benefits from having McDavid on his team. Whether he's on the ice with McDavid or he's getting lesser opponents because the top checkers are focused on McDavid.

The NHL has credited Toews with the game-winner for some reason.

There’s an option that still looks particularly disgusting to me.
1.We overpower Winnipeg
2. Edmonton loses to Chicago
3. We are eliminated in the next round
4. Edmonton wins first overall
Just imagine the empathy from Edmonton bandwagon when that happens.

Ok...not Toews! OK..Not Murphy! (instead)...Toews! (for now!)
I gotta laugh at Tippett whining about the 'Hawks getting PPs, his guys (Yamamoto, in particular) need to stop being idiots, and having the 'Hawks PP out there isn't that threatening, IF you had a competent defense.
