"If you're going to beat a team that's better than you, your goalie has to steal a game. This was that game.
Play it 10 times, Oilers win 7 or 8."
Orrrr, canucks got a 2 goal lead and went into prevent mode and let the Oilers come at them and most of the "appearance" of the game was the Oilers chasing a game that they were out-classed and scored in early.

Haha, Knoblauch sounds frustrated in his post-game scrum. Doesn't seem to have any answers. I mean, he's already playing the wonder twins 25+ minutes/game, so I don't think there's much else he can do at this point but double down on that strategy for the rest of the series and just hope that the refs gift the Oilers some extra PPs. It's all they've got.

Haven't the Canucks already beat the Oilers 7 out of 8 games this season? lol
Yeah, I don't know what their definition of "better than" is, but for me the Canucks win that head to head in every metric available, so how are the Oilers better?
Won 6 of 7 against EDM, finished higher in the standings.
Again... why/how lol. Because McDavid?
We're talking teams, not what superstars you have. Jesus, get over yourselves lol.

Got pulled out of nowhere because of history with mcavis people and is out of his depth in the playoffs the second playing the twins 30 min a night doesn't work.
He's doing the thing he got hired to do, play mcavi.

Evander Kane needs to have a hearing for that intentional kick to Zadorov's head.
No reason to kick your skate in that position. Scumbag Kane never learns.
I hate the POS Kane as much as anybody, but if you're upside down in a bench it'll be hard to prove intent- even if he was trying to (which I wouldn't put past him) he'd argue he was just trying to get back up.
Doesn't matter- I'd bet either he or Perry won't be back next year on the No-goods. Two questionable personalities in the room, and so far not contributing a lot (though they are both on a scumbag discount salary). So, at least we likely won't have to see one of these pieces of s**t next year when the flames play them.

I think there should be lots of attention on how this meltdown by Skinner in round 2 is nearly identical to last year. He's got a Dan Cloutier like mental block here. He will enjoy the offseason of being the scapegoat.

Honestly pretty dangerous stiuation
You're staring down Kane's flailing skate blade, and Oilers on the bench are holding you there..
