WCF: Dallas Stars [CEN1] vs Edmonton Oilers [PAC2] - Edmonton wins 4-2

[Mathgod]

No Hintz, and the team was still shaking off the rust from a week off.

I think whoever wins game 2 will ultimately win the series.

[Tbull8]

Hopefully Hintz is ready for game 2. That would be a nice boost up front

[MRCboicgy]

Oilers probably deserved to win that one, fully underestimated them vs this Dallas team, at least for one game.

[SemicolonD]

Skinner is Hasek, Carrick is Bergeron lite, Nurse is the reincarnation of Pronger himself. This playoffs is like taking crazy pills.

Hopefully this makes the Oilers complacent going forward. Let them read the articles and think of themselves as already past the Stars.

Dallas has lost 7 Game 1s in a row, all by one goal. Relax.

[CedarMeter]

I don’t get man. I just don’t get it.

So, you aren’t cheering for oilers this time?

I’m kidding man

[Rhett44]

I'm tired of everyone dismissing Edmonton as a horrible team who is not in the same league as Dallas. The Oilers are 7 wins away from a Stanley Cup. And seem to be getting every single break in the world.

The worst part is they look completely evenly matched.

Can someone please stop this nightmare.

[memphusk]

Hahahaa. Still Dallas in 6.

But also 82% of teams who go up 3-2 in the series win. Thanks Canucks...

I'm trying to resign to the fact that the Oilers may actually win it all this year, and having to accept that we're going to have hear the non-stop fanboying for the Oilers for the next 10 years

Maybe the only solace we can take in this is that it will finally smarten up the Flames' organization to finally build their team right, as nothing is more embarrassing than being known as the team in the shadow to the Mighty Oilers.

Dallas looked brutal. They better have another gear.

[Winsor_Pilates]

Every team blows a game they should have had vs the Oilers.

The good news; Dallas looks like a much better team than Vancouver.
The bad news; Edmonton looks destined.

Why would that make you tired? That's weird.

The game was very evenly matched. Honestly don't know how anyone can say dallas looked brutal. They looked very good at times and at worst they looked average.

Come on, girl. I'd go for Venusians against Vancouver.

I really did think that would be a win after that incredible save by Oettinger.

[kukkudo]

Any team with McDavid and Draistial will have a chance. Everything is unfortunately clicking for them this year.

[EDMONTONisNG]

The camera angle is terrible in dallas. Are all the fans standing the entire time? When the puck is along the boards closer to you, I can hardly see the players along the boards.

I just think it's dumb to keep dismissing them. I have seen some posters saying "why would you worry, this is a waste of 8 days for Edmonton".

Well, I am very worried now. Worst timeline ever.

Again, who cares what people think. It doesn't effect the games.

Yes, it's totally acceptable to stand in Dallas which is why I LOVE watching games there. No bellyaching. Wanna sit, buy a ticket in the front row.

Over here it's caterwauling about "oh, she's standing, make her sit down"
