Post-Game Talk: Be still my Oily heart

[oilexport]

I didn't think he would but somehow he defies father time. That goal was incredible too. Nobody would even try that, he scores on it.

Kane was also dangerous around the net. Those two vets are doing something.

Yup, we're catching a gear.

 

[Tobias Kahun]

They don't have too much faith in their 4th line.

That may further cost them as fatigue continues to emerge.

Its pretty obvious that the cup isnt the goal to them, its just beating the oilers.

 

[MessierThanThou]

I think he might actually be Stu skinjob himself.

I don't even think Stu loves himself as much as this guy, no matter how many self-love audiobooks he listens to...

 

[CupofOil]

If he plays well and we lose Game 5, I'd still start him in Game 6. I do not trust Stu to step in and play well again this series.

Skinner has been poor against L.A. in all three series against them. It's just a bad matchup for him, he was far better against Dallas and Florida for some reason. This is Pickard's net, has to ride or die with him.

What is Jim Hiller doing hahaha
Lewis: 5:19
Malott: 2:27
Moverare: 2:26
Other than Lewis, I had no idea those guys were on the kings

 

[Pip]

I thought Frederic actually started to show something as well.

 

[Da McBomb]

Please re-sign Corey Perry.

Goodnight Oil country

Have you seen his stache?

I've never met a guy with a stache like that, that wasnt full of himself. ----me included when I was in my 20's.

 

[nexttothemoon]

Kuemper is 88.1% in this series... guy is definitely beatable.

GET MORE PUCKS ON NET... and the Oilers will win. Not a hard formula to figure out. They did that in the 3rd and OT and scored 3 straight goals to win.

Greasy goals count just as much as fancy ones and as soon as this teams plays with the intensity to get everything at the net and GO TO the net... they will go in.

 

[MoontoScott]

McDavid rushing to congratulate Pickard instead of Draisaitl at the end spoke volumes

Remember how he winked and high fived him at the end of game #2?

That had to inspire the guy. He may be an AHL'er but he's dug deep over the last 2 years.

 

[Tobias Kahun]

Reminded me of Game 5 against San Jose in 2017.Tied it late and ran them over in OT then won late in that OT.

Was that the desharnais goal?

 

[McDoused]

Great now I'll be up all night liking you people.

 

[Soundwave]

Never in doubt

Knob is a knob for not challenging that 2nd goal, that was not a good goal and would have been overturned if reviewed.

The guy has limited ability but he scraps for everything- I think that is why he is so liked

 

[Drivesaitl]

Kind of wild - 4 full periods and they had 5 guys below 5 minutes in ice time.

I guess that's not totally true - Lewis played 5:19.

Andersson, Doughty, and Edmundson played more than McDavid, Draisaitl, and Bouchard.

Yeah. I'm not sure why you even have Lewis in 2025. Kings management also didn't stock the table well enough. They used to be a club that can roll lines but now they have to shorten bench.

Kings improved their talent quota but not their depth at TDL.

 

[timekeep]

Why do you keep getting personal with this shit?

He might have Tourettes?

Minimal talent lineup that needs to give 110% and grind every second of every game to win. Almost worked too. But if the Oilers really wake up and put in their own honest effort, it should turn.

 

[CupofOil]

Was that the desharnais goal?

Yep. Klefbom tied it late on a Klefbomb just like the Bouchbomb this time around

 

[foshizzle]

Because you’re annoying as f***

 

[MoontoScott]

If he plays at the same level then the Oilers have a real chance of winning the series.

Doubt has crept into the Kings' minds now.

 

[TopShelfGloveSide]

Again, no amount of mindless anger will fix your personal life. Get over it. Calvin Pickard is the starter and Stu's time with the team, beyond sitting on the bench, is done. That's the reality.

Calvin Pickard wins games, Stuart Skinner does not.

I don’t know what it is but the team just wins games with Pickard in. It’s never a jaw dropping performance but gets the W more often than not.

Pickard 24-11
Stu - 26-24

It’s crazy that they’ve done this all series basically. In an elimination game you do what you have to but this is bad strategy.

 

[Tobias Kahun]

I think that was the right post and in from the left point or so far.

That was a fun period.

I think we'll look back at this ride that mcdavid has taken us on and still be glad it happened.

[Austerlitz]

Corey Perry keeps playing like this, I'll text him my Mom's number.
