Skinner actually outplayed Hill
Its easy to blame the goalie but Vegas dominated for probably 50 mins

I hope Michaels contracts Louie’s laryngitis. That’s the best he’s ever sounded.

It's like a 6:1 ratio of bounces that fortuitous in their favor vs against so far these playoffs.
Can only hope it swings the other way for a couple games. I've lost faith in law of averages as it pertains to that clown show since last year when they killed like 30 straight penalties.
They've required even more luck this year with their special teams falling back to earth. Incredible how much it sustains them, still.
Team is a joke and has no business being near the finals this time.
They fall behind in every game.

Funny thing is, Pickard the savior is currently rocking a 0.880 save percentage.

His myth will continue to grow the longer he is out. The pressure and clamour for him will get unstoppable, forcing him to play injured (cleared by oilers doctors of course) and generating an outrageous contract offer.
You love to see it!

Let them keep forgetting they were 1 dumb coach's challenge and 1 muffed clearing attempt away from being swept.
Greatest team in the history of hockey with the almighty Pickard in net!

You gave me a good laugh with that paragraph.

Clearing away attempt away, I understand.
How, I still don't understand why everyone thinks the Kings were for sure going to win after giving up the lead during that coach's challenge game.
Likely - the series would have been 3-1. Could have been much different but I feel Edmonton had all the momentum in Game 3 after they scored the tying goal. Could have been a sweep, but we don't know.

Skinner getting the blame for that GWG makes me laugh.
He plays aggressive, shuts down the risk of the shot which was the only play they had, and forces the player behind the goal line.
Then Draisaitl puts a puck going wide into his own net and it's somehow Skinner's fault.

That's why I call him Scapegoat Skinner. It's always his fault according to the Oilers fans even when it isn't.

Well, they can't blame the Glitter Twits, so someone's gotta take the fall. Might as well always be the goalie...

I love how Crysaitl scored on his own net and Skinner takes the blame. E=NG.

Easier for fans and media to blame Skinner than admitting the roster is flawed
