Pre-Game Talk: Edmonton vs Vegas

[Lay Z Boy GM]

It wasn't meant to be. Rantanen went god mode and single-handedly beat the Avs with 3 goals and an assist. There is a universe where he is an Oiler right now. That would have been amazing.

Man imagine Rantanen on a line with McDrai? Or just either one of them.

He wasn’t looking very good until recently but you knew he’d come around. Big win for Dallas

Game 1 Tuesday if it hasn’t been posted.

Is it Jack and Louie?

 

[TopShelfGloveSide]

Is it Jack and Louie?

I would guess yes until the leafs are eliminated.

 

[KCC]

I would guess yes until the leafs are eliminated.

Pretty safe bet then we will likely get Chris Cuthbert. But I'd prefer Jack and Louie even in the finals. Jack especially deserves it.

A lot of people around here were deep throating Colorado management because of all the moves they made, while trashing Edmonton management. But here we are, Colorado out in the first round, losing to a team missing their #1 dman and best scorer (who Edmonton beat last year with both) and the Oilers are moving on.

And Blackwood rocking that .892 and a .833 in game 7 lol.

I just brought that up in rumors thread lol curious of people still whinning over not acquiring blackwood after he was a big reason the lost to Dallas . That and it seems Makar was MIA most of the series

 

[Duke74]

Dallas will beat whoever wins tonight.

 

[McJadeddog]

Honestly could care less. I guess I'll cheer for Winnipeg cause they are Canadian, but overall I don't really hate either team, which usually decides who I cheer for in other series.

I’m cheering for whoever has the worst goalie. But I can’t tell who that is.

Just wanted to throw in this tabulation. With the 4W's in playoffs Pickard has now caught Skinner in Wins in reg season and playoffs combined. These are the Win/loss records including OTL as losses.

Pickard 26W 11L

Skinner 26W 24L


While playing on the same club, same season, same roster.

Skinner also did DNF 5 games and being pulled in 4. One of the Pickard registered losses is a shit game where Pickard came in, played great, still got tagged with a loss.

Pickard has been pulled only once all season and playoffs.

Pickard might be one of the hottest Winning records of goalies in NHL. I'm lazy and didn't check that one.


Any Questions?

I'm back outside gardening and enjoying the day. Put the plants and seeds in now people. Dont' wait till May long weekend. Its time.

Do you really need to continue to disparage oiler players?

 

[Mez]

I swear, this org is stupid enough to do it.

Even dumber than starting Smilin’ Stu is pairing Nurse & Bouchard - again.

Pointing out the degree to which Pickard>Skinner is "disparaging oiler players"

What an odd take.
