This is brutal by Dallas, they've completely lost the plot. Just no speed or attack. Edmonton is giving up the blueline super easily but Dallas is just running straight into defenders.

Dallas is mostly doing what they want defensively, shots are super low but you still have to produce at the other end.

Cant believe the oilers are playing like this defensively man Tocchet must be coaching them

This game is a direct representation of my ea nhl wins.

Game will end with a Hyman EN goal due to an early goalie pull where Dallas does f*** all with the puck.

This is smoke and mirrors, Dallas is just losing battles and shooting into the teeth of the shot blocking.

We did the same in the bubble, teams can play like this for a bit but a better team will eventually win out because it's just too passive.

Thing is they look super slow. They lose battles and then don't get to pucks.

Verhaghe Barkov Reinhart
Tkachuk Bennett Rodriguez
Luostrainen Lundell Tarasenko

damn is that a deep forward group. 3 of the best 2 way Cs at their respective positions, power forwards and 5 of the 6 wingers are one shot snipers

Florida/Edmonton will go at least 6 games.

I give Edmonton the advantage on offense due to McDrai but Florida has better scoring depth.

Depth often wins out but it's been a while since we seen a player like McDavid in the finals.

Oilers looking sluggish and nervous

 

[VanCanucks53]

I would hate nothing more than a Canadian team winning the cup (that isn’t the Canucks) and that feeling is 100X more stronger when it’s the Oilers.

 

[Scholarships]

They can never make me like you Jamie Benn

 

[Peen]

disgusting

 

[Bonham]

Couldn't hit the net there.

 

[calnuck]

I’m going to be sick.

Putting Pavelski out there.....LOL

I can safely go back to hating Dallas because of him and Seguin now. Hopefully Tanev doesn’t re-sign there.

 

[Bgav]

35-10 shots lol.. panthers in 5 maybe 6

 

[Blue and Green]

Oilers just broke the record that the Canucks had set in the first round.

 

[PG Canuck]

That Oilers watch party is insanely weak lol

 

[BenningHurtsMySoul]

Puke. Can't believe we're here.

 

[Slapshot_11]

Classic deboer

They need to move on from almost every old guy they have, those guys are all too slow now.

 

[ghostingtaro]

never forget 2006, i hope edmonton is ready to burn it down again

 

[Jyrki]

yeah maybe I'll skip on seeing my cousins in Edmonton next week LOL

 

[Vector]

Panthers sweep, please!

Not just because it’s the Oilers but I would like the fun part of the offseason to start.

 

[sting101]

I mean when you live here and your team gets knocked out of the playoffs it's gotta be gut wrenching.
