And really sad if the oilers drop the next twoGonna be funny if the Oilers win the next two and all the meltdowners have sudden amnesia and get back on board.

Or it will be "see i told you so" or "atleast I didn't give up on them,"It will either be, ‘see, I told you so’, or ‘I knew they could do it’.
Am I crazy?
I'm watching Toronto, with Rasmus Sandin quarterbacking the top unit PP, he makes a mistake game 1, Leafs go back to him, he scores.
Evan Bouchard is better than Sandin no?
If Bouchard made a mistake he wouldn't play until 2022.
These are the moments that tell you what a team is made of. Almost every team that makes it to the cup final had to come from behind to steal the series. We did it in 2006 against the Sharks and in 1990 against the Jets.

Have a look at TORs PP success this year before they put Sandin there and look at EDMs PP success this year without Bouchard
It's Tippett. The odds of that happening are more astronomical than the Milky Way Galaxy.I'd try this out next game.
Archibald-McDavid-Puljujarvi
Kahun-Draisaitl-Yamamoto
Ennis-RNH-Chiasson
McLeod-Khaira-Neal
Nurse-Barrie
Kulikov-Larsson
Russell-Bouchard
I’m a firm believer in going with the team that got you to the dance. I’d also put Archibald with McDavid and JP. Archi needs to be told to play in straight lines- crash the net and crash the boards. McDavid needs to put everything on net. Our defencemen need to be told to limit D to D passes- move the puck up and put everything on net.
Also need to be loyal to the players that got you there- Shore, Haas need to go back in. Neal is doing nothing- but we all know Tipp is stubborn. Jones over 4K. I like 4K’s game- but he isn’t moving the puck up quick enough to the forwards. I’m also putting in Nygard- Winnipeg’s very mediocre dmen are having no issues moving the puck up- need some disruption to their transition game. I’d throw in Ennis as he has no issues getting greasy.
I'd try this out next game.

That'd be a start at least.That would be ideal, but like we all know.. Tipp is stubborn. Watch him just take out Kassian for Shore and do nothing else.
We should have been running 7 D and 12 F all freaking season, but what do I know.
This is even more true with the Jets playing a hard trap, because you need clean breakout passes to break that. Barrie is usually good for that, but he has been an absolute disaster so far. Might as well get Bouchard some playoff experience as well. We aren't winning this round anyhow, get the young guys who will maybe be back here again next year some playing time.
That'd be a start at least.
Maybe by elimination Game 4 he'll finally put Ennis in and let Ennis/McLeod show that chemistry they had in all of 1 game before he broke up that line.
Won’t even be around for this one
going to a friends house I haven’t seen since the start of Covid. He has no cable ugh. I’ll be watching on my phone though lol.
Grey owls nephew.Maybe it just seems like it, but do none of your friends or relatives have cable or running water?
