Jeez. Sure does look like icing

Except the other linesman waived it off, Dustin.

More surprising was how wide open Silfverberg was. The overhead shot show guys going off for a line change. What happened there?

Nah, puck was touched before centre, it would still be an icing but the linesman waived it off when Klefbom made a late pivot away from the puck (puck goes by on the board side, he pivoted toward centre ice to chase it), which is the right call IMO, you have to take the direct line to the puck on a close call like that.

I want to hear that "Anaheim Ducks GOOOOAAAALLLLLLLLL" and see Mr. Santa Claus Finger Guns in full force next game!

[dino7c]

That's exactly it, Oilers Dman turns away and it's waved off...maybe go get the puck and don't turn it over

If you watch the replay, you can see Larsson look back at Silfverberg, and then continue towards the boards anyway.

Getzlaf. The destroyer of worlds.

Mwahahaha.

[dino7c]

Maybe they want to borrow our Getzlaf banner

[timbit]

Up 2 zip....folded like a cheap tent.

Many thanks to perennial losers Eberle ( bailout queen) and Nuge ( soft as puppy poop) who.cost the Oilers hugely.

He's dead to me.

Maybe off topic but I used to really enjoy Ron but now he seems like the weak link on that panel.

The Oiler's fans salt sustains me

[Sainters7]

Some solid mouth breathing into the mic in that post game interview there McDavid, you caveman

[Calgary4LIfe]

I hate to say it since I hate the Ducks, but when Getzlaf gets into his game, I think he gives Crosby a run at his money for best player in the world.

I hate the Ducks a lot, and I don't want to see Kesler win anything, but I find it difficult not to cheer for them considering who they are playing. I am so damn sick of the Oilers and McDiver lovefest.

Comments from HF

Spoiler!

There you go Tmac allows Carlye to ice his number 1 line to start ot . OuT COACHED idiot. You had last change here Randy I will let you dictate my lines.

So 3/4 goals were ****ing horse ****.
You seriously wonder about preferential treatment. But Randy ****ing Carlyle opens his gob like that.

TMac outcoached and showing how useless he actually is at in-game coaching.

Klef and Larss, what a ****ing disgrace. Hallsy is probably laughing his ass off right now.

Answer this why was the Ducks #1 line out to start overtime while McDavid is on the bench and Nuge line owned all game by Gretzlaf . Tmac is a brutal coach at critical times just amateur. All game every delay 3rd line out good instruction coach lousy game coach . Both games at home he let Ducks dictate lines

Where were the forwards on that goal? going for a ****ing line change?

And our dumb idiot of a coach too scared to put McDavid on the ice and would rather get RNH get his **** caved in cause he sucks.

What a passive chicken **** explanation from Todd
Again no emotion and critical of our players with no mention of the corrupt officials
**** off with the young team ********!
Sad day for us Oiler fans indeed

[1991 Canadian]

The Ducks have been getting a lot of 50/50 calls go in their favour so far. It'd feel bad for Oiler fans, but they were the first to call out our complaining in the first round. Maybe Flames fans aren't so crazy after all

[djsFlames]

You have to play your depth lines at some point. You can't have McDavid on the ice for 60+ minutes.

RNH is supposed to be a shutdown type center. He's gonna have to face either Getzlaf or Kesler. Take your pick.

[bigrangy]

So I, unfortunately, had to watch this game and yeah the grease got pretty screwed.

It's a wonder how ridiculous their system is to me. For the 38 minutes or whatever that mcdingus isn't out there, it's just survival. Just go through the motions and don't get scored on. For the other 22 minutes, it's take every chance you can and pray to McJesus that Talbot bails you out of any mistakes.

Also, I don't know if today was a usual game from Draisaitl but the guys arguing that Bennett is better than him might actually have a point. Guy was awful tonight.

Go ducks

What a beast.
My favorite goal of the game was when Tenderness teed it up for Getzlaf right in front.
Looked like playing keepaway against a child.

[FireGilbert]

Yay! Go Ducks!

Does anyone still want to take down the Getzlaf banner from the Dome?
