WCQF: Edmonton Oilers [PAC2] vs LA Kings [PAC3] - Oilers Win 4-2

[Mean Mr. Mustard]

Bouchard is looking pretty good so far tonight. A few defensive gaffs but lots of confidence in the offensive zone.

As a flames fan, it's time to let go of the hatred and realize they look exciting and fun to watch, unlike us, who are easily in the darkest timeline.

Lol. Get the hell outta here with that crap.

Kelly Hrudey is finally with his people on the Oilers panel.

Congrats Kelly!

Series won't even go 6.

How different might things be right now if Markstrom didn’t suddenly forget how to play goal against the Oilers in last year’s playoffs.

He really should've been in the return package for Ekholm. Nashville should've taken Edmonton to the cleaners.

Always charge Holland a premium for talent.

I have spent as long as anyone hating them. I have 20+ Flames jerseys, but letsbe objective here. They're still playing, and we aren't. They have a captain that takes the team on their back and leads - something we haven't had since Iginla. I can only sit here for so long and say I hate them until I realize that it comes from jealousy. Jealousy is poison and Im tired of an entedtainment product causing me stress. I am tired of intoleeant and obnoxious mob mentality. From them. From us. It's not worth it. Life is too short. If they win the cup this year, I am peace with it. If they lose... well for obvious reasons I'll enjoy it, but I shouldn't let my emotions be defined by them winning or losing.

Dude. No one is going to sympathize with your plight here. Just give it up.

No self respecting Flames fan should be putting this much effort to "giving up the hate" against this criminal employing scum organization up the highway that unjustly lucked their way into McDavid.

They represent everything that's wrong with the NHL. So thanks, but no.

Maybe it's time to get back in touch with your moral compass.

Never said I was going to be popular for saying it. I said what I said. Maybe it's just my copium for our team being in the situation it's in. You can ostricize me all you want but it wontmake me less of a flames fan.

[PepsiFree]

If hating the Oilers causes you stress and makes you feel sick or whatever… yeah… get some help.

But I think most people just think it’s fun. It’s ok to have fun hating a sports team. It doesn’t mean anything.

You're probably just better off switching your allegiances.

yes!

I love that stunned silence after opposing teams score in the toilet bowl, paired with Singh sad whimper.

Well done Kempe!

[midniteowl]

Now tie it up Kings!

[TrentCrimmIndependent]

Kings have a pretty good edge in O-zone possession.

Too bad they had that deer-like slow start.
