Agreed. This is what makes it even more heartbreaking. We are the better team yet face a such an uphill battle.

Watch at the end. Bennett forgot which knee was supposed to be 'hurt' and was pushing off with the wrong leg. f***ing clown should've gotten a penalty for embellishing.

Fine that loser.
It’s kinda wild to think how hopeless it felt before last nights game, only to now feel like 3 wins in a row is definitely something this team is capable of.
Either way, I’m happy we didn’t get swept and put up one hell of a potential last game at home. Win or lose I’m proud of this group for making it this far despite the clear flaws.
That said, if there was ever a team to bet on being down 3-1 in the finals, it’s the one with Mcdavid and Drai on it.

We have some of the longest winstreaks strung together this season. 4 in a row is nothing.

He was absolutely trying to coax out a 5 minute major there.
Agreed. Florida is easily the best team we’ve played this season, but after last nights performance, they seem a lot more human. Hopefully the guys can all rally around it. Getting Bob pulled is huge considering he was imo the biggest reason we were down 3-0

I'm telling you boys, they made a huge mistake letting the Oilers get 1.
I have a feeling it will be seventh heaven for the OIL!!!

If the Oil can win game 5...Florida is in trouble IMO.
Coming back home with all that momentum and the opportunity to tie the series...Florida will be like....

So the secret to this win (and the Panthers over agressiveness) was the stretch pass?

The Cats came in last night with the thought they had 3 cracks at winning the cup. That will be their downfall.
You’re new to this, aren’t you.

Imagine spending your life a fan of that loser franchise. 54 years and zero to show for it. Sad. You’d become pitiful and bitter and vindictive too. And spend more time obsessing about a team that has actually something rather than live with the reality that there is no joy in being a fan of your own.
I was hoping for an Embellishment add on for Bennett.

Got the best gift of all last night. The socks and underwear that I’ll probably receive today won’t quite match it.

Lol, I don't think so, Tim.
Bobo has a very expressive face at times. But yes, very important to not only beat him, but to pump him good.

Like the players, a lot of us are creatures of superstition. I’ve lost count of the various combinations of Oiler clothing that I’ve worn to watch the games, some of it clearly the good luck charm after a three game winning streak, some put back in the closet in shame after a painful loss. Last night was the first game where I said ‘this may not be working’ and didn’t wear any Oiler related clothing. So that is clearly the new good luck charm going forward.

Oilers were the better team in games 1 and 3 and so that story line was odd. Still think we ought to have had game 3. Would feel a lot better with series being tied. Margin for error is slim now.Game 1 loss: Edmonton can’t hang with Florida!
Game 2 loss: Edmonton can’t hang with Florida! SWEEP! CATS IN 4
Game 3 loss: Edmonton can’t hang with Florida! Sweep! SWEEEEEP
Game 4 Oilers blowout win: ……. Florida lost on purpose so they can win at home.
Game 5 will be hardest game yet.

Yeah. Unfortunately last night doesn't erase that, it amplifies it. If only he made one more save or didn't make that colossal blunder giving Florida a goal. The series was ready to change right at that moment with the Oilers tied 1-1 and dominating the game. Skinner altered outcome of game 3. Game 4 doesn't change that.
Logic and common sense isn't a strongsuit in lower mainland. Hey lets spend 1.5M to buy a house located on an epic Cascadia subduction zone thats overdue to unleash at anytime.

And Skinner was tremendous as well. His save on Verhaeghe was crucial. Still can't stand his moustache, the way he tosses his hair back, his pathetic post game demeaner, his whiny demands to be played no matter what, the way he tried to impersonate Grant Fuhr by wearing white pads in the Heritage Classic game, etc, etc. But I can live with it I guess.
