As much as I hate them, Nugent Hopkins, Hyman, Kane, Bouchard, Draisatl, Ekholm are not "marginal NHLers".

They have a better team than we want to admit. Their depth is suspect but overall this series has looked better than Dallas depth.

Kane is marginal human who doesn't belong in society, but the rest are alright.

Sounds very flamey.

Not watching, but just checked the score. Gross. Thanks for showing up Dallas, ya lazy bums.

Guess it’s up to Chucky and Bennett to end this madness.

Don't forget little lomberg. He's likes to hit things. Florida would check the Coilers into oblivion. Something no other team has seemed to want to go against the grease.

Good defence where you have a team that can produce Power Plays, and make use of them rather than squandering their opportunities? That's how you win with this roster.

He's doing a good job. Wouldn't have thought that to be the case considering his CV.
Maybe. Or maybe if the Oilers advance to face Florida, they get outed for who they are and always have been. We'll see.

Having Jani Hakanpaa would have kept their defense so much fresher in the playoffs.

Crying shame the Canucks could not get the job done. They were the best team the Oilers faced so far. Definitely best goaltending they have faced.

At this point I just expect the Oilers to win the cup. But at least you know Florida will show up and not go out with a whimper like Vancouver and Dallas (I hope).

Yeah, what a consolation prize that would have been.

I don't think I've seen Harley get a shot through to the net this entire series.

10-1 Oilers since the Stars were up 2-0 in game 4. It's like the teams switched jerseys or something.

Edmonton is just playing anti-hockey and has complete buy in from their team. They just collapse, chip it out and hope one of mcpissy gets it. Rinse and repeat until it works.

The game has become so structured, it's boring at times.
