Sad part, Jiri? That's just the start. He's going to flop this entire series. And he'll get the calls.

Dallas was so much better than these guys. They had structure and prevented the Flames from operating like they did in the regular season. They also had great goaltending. I'm not seeing any of that so far today.

Drink every time the panel says something about how awesome McDavid is.

"look how he took that hit from Lucic, drawing the penalty perfectly".

Alternate would be drink every time Ron makes you want to burst your own ear drums.

My only criticism is our PP. Other than that, pretty solid start. I hope they put Smith back in next game!

Okay. All I ask is that they not get complacent.

This has happened in the past when they've been stomping the Oilers only to have them come back because they lost that drive. I don't doubt that things are different now, but they may need a reminder in the intermission.

They honestly look so good I cannot fathom how the Oilers could win this series. I'll take a chance on the jinx because I'm wearing my Monahan jersey for the first time in years and this is the result.

Lucic’s penalty was roughing so they didn’t call the hit against McDavid.

And if that’s the case, how does the guy who jumps him not get the penalty? Especially when the guy is Kane?

Score flatters the Oilers, Gudbranson gave McDavid the puck in the slot...when he is out there make sure, ice it if need be.

On top of the glory for Flames fans that a series win would bring, the vindication for flames fans knowing this and the rest of the hockey world taking crazy pills.

The Lucic call was the only questionable one.

The inevitable creaming of McDavid by Zadorov is going to be sooooo worth it!

Oiler fan in the comments saying the hit was 3 seconds after the whistle, lol. I bet it was about half a second.

Koskinen is made of horseshoes

Refs love mcavi as usual

The grease won’t be that bad again in the series so I’m kind of disappointed that period results in just a 2 goal lead. Should have been 4+. Need to crush them.
I thought the pp was good
Several chances

I can't wait to see the scraps break out and for Lucic to be right about what he said to Zadorov when we got him...." now we can punch people in the heads together "!
Edmonton cannot match us in the physical department.
Wait to watch oilers drop like flies .

Listen to Sid new audiobook, the one thing in his career which he would like to redo is yapping at the refs for calls in his rookie year.

This is Connie’s defining feature.
