Post-Game Talk: Connoredemption!

[TheNumber4]

Will you guys beleive Eklhom?

“Stu has been on fire. Back to his old self”

Or are you going to scoff at Ekholm and stroke your own ego? Or are we going to support the ONLY chance we have at a Cup?

 

[ManofSteel55]

Bouchard destroys this chart like every night. He's elite...period.

But but but...McDrai...right?

 

[Jimmi McJenkins]

Nuge played a great game

He's been playing the best hockey of his career over the last week

 

[jesusbuiltmyhotrod]

That would have been a heartbreaker to lose because I thought the Oilers were the better team most of the game and other than flubs and lucky bounces. Oilers had this one.

Huge on the PK... Huge in net... some excellent defense overall.


A really solid road game to open the series.. and puts the pressure squarely on Dallas to get the next one.

Dallas didn't play badly either... Oilers just were the better team overall which is an encouraging sign as most thought this was an easy series for the Stars to win as they are supposedly the superior team.

Only spoken by idiots who don't know the oilers..Drai/ bouch and others on this team get zero respect. Our D is as good as theirs imo.

 

[Kerberos]

f*** it, I'll take a road split (at the very least) against the Stars

Nah. We're taking both.

 

[bellagiobob]

Gotta be pretty demoralizing for Dallas, brought their own refs and still lost the game.

 

[Shad5150]

The Nuge out hustles the great Tanev to help set up the winner, lmao.

Great game Nuge.

 

[ManofSteel55]

This is also the first McDrai Conference game W. This feels different for a lot of reasons. Getting it in double OT even more impressive.

Wheres all the Vancouver pundits saying we can't defend?

Scrubbing their golf balls.

 

[nexttothemoon]

Skinner plays like that and I'll gladly eat crow game after game after game.

Spectacular game for him.

 

[The Nuge]

He's been playing the best hockey of his career over the last week

Yep. It’s not just McDrai that desperately want the Cup

 

[rboomercat90]

Can somebody do a gif of Knoblach walking off the ice after the goal? He looked like a cartoon thief trying to sneak away after the big heist. It was hillarious.

Vancouver media are as ignorant as their fans

 

[Heavy Dee]

Connor owns Tanev.

When my alarm goes off tomorrow morning after a night of boozing

 

[BeliveauFan4ever]

!

1 down. 3 to go.

Pulling for your club, bigtime.

 

[CycloneSweep]

Where are those so called "Fans" who said we suck after falling behind 3-2 to vancouver....

I’m still here.

 

[VainGretzky]

Top 3 game of the year for Skinner tonight maybe getting away from Schwartz is the recipe

The Oilers have been one of the best defensive teams in the league under Knoblauch, the uneducated posters who have their usual tired Oiler narratives all lined up no matter what refused to acknowledge that then we hear about how it doesn't matter because they shut down popgun offenses in the Kings and Canucks. Well? How about the "deepest team in the league"? Just 1 game so I don't want to go overboard but the Oilers largely stifled the Stars tonight, I honestly didn't expect that but maybe I (we) should have.

 

[Drivesaitl]

Off the back of a an outside goalie coach coming in at correcting his stance…lol. Schwartz.

Schwartz is so fired.

 

[ManofSteel55]

Pk was 12/12 against LA. And 5/5 today.

 

[tiger_80]

Tanev is crap. Never really understood all the talk about him. Just another Flamer that was grossly overrated. Was Dallas worst D tonight.

He was basically a Staios type in his prime, maybe slightly better. No.3-4 guy. Nice player to have but not the difference maker like Ekholm.

 

[Chayos]

Its moments like this that makes you forget the late 90's.

 

[Messrules11]

The whole hockey world is talking about him being injured but I’m sure you know better lmao. Time to start blocking people.

Yup, you’re blocked

 

[Pavel10]

Zadorov last round
Tanev this round

 

[Kolja]

Hell ye!! Best season since 2006!!

Let's go!!
