I think he means that clearly the Flames should just forfeit because ... ... ... McDavid.

For the oilers to win this series, I think that penalties and Smith are the two important parts - but who knows as this is the playoffs.

If this series is played mostly at 5 on 5 and the Flames avoid penalty trouble, then I think the oilers are in tough as Smith will need to be the same or better than he was last series (and he had some down games last series). If the refs get involved again and we see an uptick in penalties again or the Flames get focused on extra curriculars, then it could be a close series.

See, that's the problem with your beloved team and Sutter even mentioned it a few times during the season. Bad teams need to "outscore" their problems to win but championship teams "check" to win.

I said he posted a picture of the whole team...
I was implying McDavid is the whole team...
The rest was a setup...for the joke...

If they are, Holland has to be the dumbest GM ever to just volunteer information like that.

sign idea based off visa

Flights= $500
tickets to game 1= $300
beer = $50
Oilers still paying Lucic $750,000 = PRICELESS
E=NG

We're sitting in PL so cant do it.

Reporter at 4:55 "Michael from a defencemens perspective how do you stop the 2 best players in the league"

Stone gives a little chuckle under his breath before answering the question. In what world is Draisaitl a top 2 player in the league.

Having a guy posting himself centric pictures begging for crowd noise just screams


"EDMONTON ACKNOWLEDGE ME!!!!!"


Everything that the Conna does is all about him.


He's the Marcia Brady of the NHL.

So given the talk around their 2017 2nd round loss, the Oilers are now on a "run" in 2022! They've won a round!

In Calgary ... when is it a run?

You have to make the conference finals I would think, right?

I find it hilarious how upset some Oiler fans are that Gretzky picked the Flames. The guy is a grizzled gambler. He went with the logical choice lol. He's not going to let emotions get in the way of rational logic.

Has Rick Tocchet chimed in yet? Or Janet Gretzky?

The Flames are filled with greasy goons who will try to get our skilled players to retaliate but hopefully the Oilers have learned to leave the Flames to turtle in the corner and stay out of the box. We don't need Kane sitting for five with Lucic because that's 5 minutes Lucic is unavailable to make horrible passes and turnovers. Oilers in 6 because the Flames will squeak some goals through our leaky goaltending. If we swapped the goalies it'd be a sweep.
WOW. Do you pee blue koolaid?

If you swap goalies and 5 of the 6 D you might win 2 games.... lol

Cuthburt and Millen would have been good, not a fan of 1991 Edmonton Oilers Craig Simpson.

Calgary:
Get to round 1 - Great, we made the playoffs.
Get to round 2 - Amazing, we won a round.
Get to round 3 - Phenomenal, we went on a run.
Get to round 4 - A deep run, one of the best seasons as a franchise.

Oilers:
Win a pre-season game - What's the parade route? I already booked work off. Most amazing team and franchise in the history of professional sports. Give me my banner!
