Post-Game Talk: 2 Down, 2 To Go

[tiger_80]

Connor Brown went from a pariah to a legend on this team

What a beauty. I'll never forget him as an Oiler

he's two wins away from getting his monument on Whyte Avenue!

That bastard even show up to a game yet?

Special thanks to the Golden Bear Jack Nicklaus. I hope they bring him back to beat the drum in game 7!

Guys I love Evan Bouchard. He has surpassed my expectations, not so much offensively as defensively.

McDavid should win the Conn Smythe unanimously but Bouchard would be a worthy candidate in any other playoffs.

He's found a pretty good balance between his calm demeanor and playoff intensity. He's learned to use that Old Man Strength without any cheap shots.

Trying to figure out who he reminds me of. Maybe Leetch. A bit of Zubov (keeping it in at the blue line). A bit of MacInnis.

He deserves more recognition, even from our own fanbase.

But if that maybe helps keep him cheap I'd be fine with it.

Luongo secretly happy since he grew up an Oilers fan.

 

[tiger_80]

Dude going to go on a killing spree, he must be enjoyable to be around

He looks like Chara's cousin.

Knob with huge praise for Skinny Boy

He played damn good tonite, deserved a star.

For sure, getting serious "don't show you're happy" vibes from him.

Not tonight Chucky

 

[Oilers88]

It's kind of ludicrous that our PK is +2 in the conference finals and SCF.

 

[Heavy Dee]

Conn Smyth already awarded.

Stanley still awaiting.

 

[rboomercat90]

The fact that the Panthers had big plans for a party with the Celtics in Miami tonight makes this even better.

Who knows? Maybe they’ll still go. I don’t think it would be a question if Huberdeau was still there.

Jack is cheering for the Oilers, secretly

 

[McDrai]

What a knee knocker! That had to be one of the best games I’ve seen from McDavid. You could tell he wanted it the most out of every player on the ice. Now we get to go back to Edmonton with our amazing fan base! Hopefully the extra energy pushes us over the top and forces a potential game 7

 

[Oilhawks]

So many oilers haters on sportsnet, TSN, this forum, reddit, they are all getting very nervous now...

As much as I hate on Sportsnet, I do have to give them props (again) for putting together a great post-game crew that seem to be having fun hosting it in Osmak, Ken Reid and Gazdic. Actually enjoy watching their banter between post game interviews

 

[Captain Fantastic]

We have a series!!

Get your boners back out!

I'll just keep it out till next week.

It's kind of ludicrous that our PK is +2 in the conference finals and SCF.

lol. f***in POWERKILL baby!

 

[Lay Z Boy GM]

That bastard even show up to a game yet?

I think he was there with Biz game 4

In the Presence of Greatness

Connor McDavid with back to back games for the ages. Hitch a ride Oilers the Captain is delivering in the biggest moment to keep this dream season moving forward. Legendary.

Skinner backstopped this team through a white knuckle ride. Excellent early and critical to help this team get on its footing in an elimination game. Connor two with a superlative game showing such smart anticipation on his critical first game. The skating has caught up with his hockey sense and in the biggest spotlight he and Janmark are excelling among the best Oilers forwards. Bouchard a sneaky 3 point game on a game high 26:14 toi.

Incredible to see this team compartmentalize its task to grind through two elimination games and now to drag them back to Alberta.

Interesting pickup by Ferraro since he's between the benches.

My first thought is I would HATE to work for somebody like that. Absolute behavioral fail. Roid raging or what?

 

[9GWG9]

Blood pressure finally back down to safe levels!

Ahh McDavid we are witnessing history. This team takes my energy. In a healthy way.

Drag’em back to Florida boys.

What do you mean? Getting screamed at is a HUGE morale boost.
