Post-Game Talk: Oilers Win Series in Gentlemen's sweep 4-2

Yeesh Kopitar and Doughty still have term left, I thought they'd be at retirement by now. They are so over the hill.

I hope next year we play LA in the first round again lol. Though I'm sure they'll have a different coach at least.
I feel for both Kopitar and Doughty. I don't even think they're over the hill fully. Still good players imo. They're just too old to be playing ~22 and 27 minutes a night respectively. Especially matching up against McDrai. Doughty playing ~20 minutes a night on a teams 2nd pairing, or Kopitar at ~17-18 minutes as a 2nd line C. I'd gladly take either in that scenario. But as a teams best option...? They ain't it anymore.

Hey, at least they have cups. I would feel worse for them if they didn't.
 
WHAT A WIN!!! Our defence could’ve been better but DAMN!! Our depth scoring has gotten so good. Congrats to Frederic… also to Connor Brown who was f***ing fantastic tonight!! BRING ON VEGAS. WE CAN BEAT THEM! We have the heart and the weapons
 
There's definitely going to be a point where it comes back to bite them.

I was watching the Avs game and they scored into the empty net twice from their end of the ice and our team can't hit it from the top of the circles.

It's easy to be unselfish but nobody's going to be mad at you for putting the game away.
Good lord. I honestly believe you don't watch the games.
 
Gave Rejean a break today and found a HF local that hates us for some reason.

Must have been all those times we beat the Penguins in the playoffs… :huh:

I respect Doughty alot and I can tell McDavid does too and the respect goes both ways there... especially after 4 Nations... he and McDavid seemed to have built a bond. Doughty always plays us hard but he doesn't play dirty against us. He must have nightmares about Edmonton though lol.
