The Oilers must be feeling fantastic about themselves. Well, their goalie anyway.

Should/could be about 3 or 4-0 yet here we are tied. Huge for them that the game isn't out of hand already. Get the first one and the way Talbot is playing they could steal a game they shouldn't even be in.

Thanks for that.

But I would argue that #2 wasn't met by the standard that is usually required.

We usually only see penalty shots when the player is clearly ahead of the defender. Where there is an actual gap between them.

In this case, the defender was partially beside him (definitely no gap)

If McDavid was playing as well as Getzlaf is, the media would would be inventing new words to praise him and would already be etching his name on the Conn Smythe

Elliotte Friedman just compared Getzlaf's play against the Oilers to Adam Sandler playing Dodgeball against those kids in Billy Madison.

Oilers get dominated but its all Oilers talk. Ducks dominated flames its ducks talk.

Not saying Ritchie isn't dumb, but IMO it's worth risking a penalty early in the game to try to rattle Talbot. He's the only reason the Oilers are in this game, and the series for that matter

You just know the oilers will score some fluke goal to win this game and then win game 6 at home.

Just the way things have been going. This series should be over by now with a ducks sweep.

The panel is going on about how important diving is. Doesn't get more oileresque than that.

I think an argument can be made that Getzlaf is the best all round player in the world right now.

One team from Alberta does not have any luck at all in Anaheim. The other has it in spades. So strange.

That's as close as you can get to legally bludgeoning a man to death.
