Edmonton Oilers Defeat the Vancouver Canucks, 4-3, advance to WCF

[notsocommonsense]

Congrats Oilers and fans. Well deserved Victory tonight and in the series.

Helluva series from Bouchard especially

Congrats Oilers, gritty series win. Canucks were a tough out, but championship caliber teams find ways to finish hot teams with good mojo. Pulling for McDavid to get "Cup" and Oilers winning would be good for fan-base. Good luck Oilers

 

[Lawzy]

Can't say I like the result but the better team won.

 

[Brookbank]

Never in doubt.

Oh it was in doubt. Very much so.

 

[Frank Drebin]

This really hurts me to say it but



Connor Garland has by far the best head of hair on either team

 

[FMichael]

Unless I read sumthin about the Canucks players all having food poisoning - there was nothing to be proud of regarding their performance.

 

[Coffey]

It took the 2 biggest Canuck MVPs to be out for the Oilers to beat the Canucks in 7 in a one goal game. Safe to say if the actual Canucks roster showed up, theyd win easy

There’s the copium I needed to feed my soul.

 

[Petey O]

Good series Oilers. Hate you with a passion but have to pay respect where it’s due. Good luck moving forward.

 

[Xirik]

Grats on making it to the Conference finals Oilers!

Sadly the Oilers are the worst team Dallas has had to face so far this playoffs.

 

[NugeDraiMoto]

Grear series nucks! Silovs can be an elite goal tender. Kid has a bright future!

@jackjohnson the crosseyed bandit struck again.

 

[Connor McConnor]

Oilers barely beat the Canucks minus their starting goalie, their top winger, and with their franchise center having 1 goal in 13 games.

Fun series. But you're going to get smoked by Dallas.

The tears from Canuck fans taste better than Calgary to be honest.

Better team won. Good luck against the stars

 

[Canucks LB]

It was fun. Good luck next year.

Same, Looks like I lost my bet, need to have a Swiss donair

 

[Kerberos]

Great series, Canucks fans. You have an amazing team. Hopefully this is the beginning of one hell of a rivalry.

Also impressed by how cordial and respectful both fanbases were towards one another during this series. Chivalry isn't dead!

 

[belair]

What a series. Vancouver gave us one hell of a scare despite the injuries they had to work through. What a year for them.

Ah hot teams. Hot teams don't just win a division. The Oilers won because Demko was out. End of.

BTW I'll be cheering for Edmonton now. I hate Dallas

 

[Regal]

Wish the last two games had a more consistent effort but still a fun series. Oilers are the better team but Canucks gave them a pretty good run.

PDOOOOO

 

[Magic Mittens]

Good season Vancouver, came close in the third. Hope Boeser gets healthy

 

[Lehnerd Skinnerd]

Hell of a series Nucks fans. You guys have a bright future. Made it really interesting at the end. Classic Oilers to blow a multiple goal lead in the 3rd. Actually hung on for a change though.

 

[Senor Catface]

Good series. No hard feelings!

The response from Edmonton:

 

[Sergei Shirokov]

Congrats to the Oilers, was a fun series, sorry for using the I word didn't mean it.

Series winner comes off a dive (imo) which is frustrating as an opponent but the Oilers were better for 50+ mins & deserved the win regardless. Canucks no showed & didn't deserve this game

When Boeser went down it was going to be tough, Oilers looked like the experienced team as they are.

Good luck against Dallas

Fun series. But you're going to get smoked by Dallas.

You got beat by a goalie rocking a .750 save percentage and a sick McDavid. Cry more
