That scramble in the last five minutes was unreal. I can't believe that didn't go in. Bob shut the door.

This stings so much worse than a sweep. To come this close, only to lose in such a close game.

Props to this Oilers team. They were frustrating to watch all playoffs long. I have a feeling they will be going deep the next couple seasons so I hope the Canucks can keep building a team to take them out.

Thanks Florida!

Would have preferred the sweep but happy nonetheless.

Luongo got his cup, a player on the Canucks payroll won a cup finally (OEL :laugh:), Gazdic is crying somewhere, and despite the refs and league's best efforts all playoff long the Oilers weren't able to hoist the cup.

That must just shatter you, mentally, to have worked SO hard to turn around your horrible start to the season, come back and win a close Game 7 in Rd 2, come back against Dallas and make it to the finals as the underdog, and then COME BACK FROM 0-3 to make it a one goal game in Game 7. How do you come back next season with the same fire?

I honestly feel bad for McDavid, he was incredible these playoffs. Happy with the result though. I didn't think Edmonton beat us gracefully. They had to be dicks about it, and Gadzic was the icing on the cake. The Oil got dusted in this one lmao.

Gary had this speech planned for days, didn’t even write one for the Oil, for obvious reasons.
