[OOT] May 2 with four games. We are talking playoffs!!

[KootenayFlamesFan]

These guys don't even seem upset. It feels like they think this series will somehow just be given to them.

[You Need a Thneed]

4 Oiler forwards with less than 10 min ice time

McDavid over 25.5

He's not even the most unlikeable player on the Oilers, ever since they signed Kane.

But he's certainly close.

Well, they did just win this game 2-0.

Wait, what? You mean even-strength goals count too? NO FAIR!!!

It's early still.

Their spirits will be broken by game 3 having to answer the same questions.

Really Smitty? Really? NOW you're going to learn?

Already throwing the team under the bus
Something We, instead of something HE should learn from.

And they only played 11 forwards

If the forwards don't take responsibility for their poor defensive game, why should the goalie take blame for a poor pass? Smith is just micmicing Draisital and McDavid.

It's the culture that the two tiered system that Lowe has created for the supposed top talent, has caused as a massive rift in team culture and which is why no player with any smarts goes there willingly to be part of such toxicity.

To be fair, Tkachuk loves to speedbag the closest defenceman or even the goalie following a goal pretty often. He's much more subtle at it though.

4-1 without the greasy Powerplay goals or 3-1 without Smiths heroics.

How is he going to last 4 games?

[CroFlames]

When you guys say 10 consecutive playoff losses are you counting the Chicago play in?

and if he did pull it off and something good happened, the media squadron would be singing his praises, a la Singh from a few weeks ago "I've watched it over and over on my PVR!!!!!"

Well Scott Oak also said “Edmonton’s last playoff win was two years ago” So it goes both ways

[soreshins]

Smith is detestable. I hate that he played for us.

But so glad he now plays for the clown shoes

[ThisIsAnOutrage]

WTF Sportsnet? Spliced together the footage to try to make it look like the Oilers were ever winning and LA came back.

I guess the truth hurts

That's coming too.

[Sylvanfan]

Let's not forget that L.A.'s third goal was also a Mike Smith special. He cost his team 2 goals in this one.

Yup, the Kings stole the game… by going up 2-0 and never trailing at any point.

Just remind yourself: Whatever is reported in the media is definitive. Reality is frequently inaccurate.

You make a bone headed play and you say you were trying too much? 99.9% of goalies would not make a stupid play like that late in the game.
