If they can end the series tonight in front of Oiler fans I may even grant them some mild support in the WCF as a thank you. Wouldn't mind seeing them lose in 7 games to the NYR a la '94 and another riot. That'd be a riot.

The Oilers incompetence knows no bounds.

I still contend it has zero to do with a losing culture due to having to suck to get McDavid/Draisaitl, and has everything to do with the fact that they are one of the absolute worst managed hockey teams.

I'd say it's fair to consider them one of the worst three managed teams in the league when you take into account the fact that they have McDavid and Draisaitl. It takes a special type of stupid to screw that up.

[memphusk]

1 game between the three of them? Ahahahahahahahhahahahahahh

In a desperate measure to help the Oil win game 6 another on ice official has been added.

[Meers]

So, do they pull Skinner after the third or fourth goal?

I suspect that Pickard will still have a chance at some point tonight.

My dad was born and raised in Vancouver and is a big Canuck's fan. He told me that he is really enjoying us being on the "same team", even if only for a little while.

We have never texted each other so much as we have during this series! It has been fun.

[Blaster86]

Awe, that's cute. You and your dad are adorable.

So they finally found a way to give him the full 60 minutes of ice time.

My mom is Vancouver as well. I was a big Moginly fan before he got to Vancouver. She got me a Moginly jersey as a present in Canucks. I will never wear it, but I understand what you’re saying.

Get the job done tonight

[Manhattanboy]

Break the Oilers.

[McG]

Mavi:

“When shifts get long and we get stuck out there, it's tough. When we keep our shifts short, when we play with the speed that we can, we've shown an ability to tilt the rink on them. To really hem them in at times and sustain pressure.”

Huh. That sounds an awful lot like telling others to get off the ice already. Why? Because he plays 30 minutes a game; he’s not talking about himself.

I bet he absolutely sucks as a teammate.

CHED is gonna spicy if the OIL's lose tonight.

[Brendone]

May the ice district get clogged with blue jerseys, and the streets flow gold with p!ss and tears.

I hate when people make this analogy and limit their ineptness to hockey. They are one of the worst manage teams in all of professional sport.

You're not allowed to mention that. Canuck fans don't think it's funny.

Why? The stars making the finals is better for the Calgary Flames.

The NHL app is finally showing Canucks as the team with better odds to win. Nice to see they finally got them right after 5 games
