It's funny how Descharnais always screens his own goalie. It seems like he is good for one every game almost. It must drive the rest of the team nuts.

I take back everything I have said about garland and his face. What a goal. What a win. This should shut the pro-oilers media up for at least 24h. Suck it oilers.

Sounds like a solid foundation, but be careful if you decide to reproduce, you may ignite the atmosphere into a C of Flames.
I laughed, but just cause it was you saying that.

Well to be fair the Canucks were pretty much a top 4 team all year.

I know the media wants this to be David vs Goliath but Canucks were pretty good all season long.

If not for the too many men penalty in the first 2 minutes of the game and a couple of unforced errors, the Oilers wouldn't have even been in this one.

So, the Oilers have lost 5 straight to the Canucks including the regular season?

5v5 adjusted expected goals:

Natural Stattrick 68.1% Canucks
Money Puck 61.8 % Canucks
Evolving Hockey 61.7% Canucks

Domination by the Canucks. With Demko rather than a mid-range AHL goalie the game isn't close.

Yeah really. How often are teams with home ice in the playoffs, played off as underdogs the way the Canucks are. I get that goaltending is still a bit sketchy with Demko out, but still. As good as he was during the regular season, they didn't rely on him completely and he missed time then as well.

God bless you Z. He made scumbag Kane take a seat many a time tonight. McP*ssy quiet, draisaitl neutralized, Kane and Perry flattened. Amazing. I told my wife I wouldn’t drink tonight….

The Oilers were leading & Paul Coffey turned to make racist hand gestures toward a fan’s turban, mocking his head. The Canucks game back and won in regulation. Karma is real. Hope Paul is held responsible for his actions.

Canuck fans probably trolling CHED because they had Gregor on their morning show and he was being pretty arrogant, even said Bouchard was pretty close to as good as Hughes, didn't really give Vancouver a chance, etc.

After the call there's about five minutes of the hosts and producers making fun of 'CHUD'--it was pretty funny.

All the Oiler fans on reddit are complaining that there should have been a penalty on the puck being gloved out of the zone toward the end... which isn't a penalty. You're allowed to do that. He didn't close his hand on it or skate with it.

I loved Skinner in his postgame:

“I thought I did a pretty good job for the first two periods”

playoffs is a team sport it’s a three period game

Then in the coach interview:

“Ya skinner didn’t bring his A game and he’d be the first to admit it”

What a bunch of losers.
