over 9000

It this total, or just in the next potential two games.... because if the later I think the first option should be enough

 

[Mirka the Turka]

I think a solid 8 more in the next two games will do. Just like he did the last 2 games.

In fact I will give him some lee-way. He can score 3 pts tonight and 5 pts at Florida to win the cup.

Depends on if Draisaitl comes back from the dead, him returning to form for even one game could be enough

If the dude scores 16 points in his final 4 games hes the goat

Take it for what it's worth but I've heard from a pretty reputable source that Draisaitl has broken ribs and a broken finger right now.

Yeah I’ve seen the games, guy looks like he has one foot in the grave

 

[Pass the Saitl Sauce]

If he scores 3 points in a game I like the oilers chances very much lol

 

[Czechboy]

Back to back 10 point games and the cup is back on Canada!

 

[The Gr8 Dane]

48+

45 points in 2 games. The extra 3, over 42 points, for a bit of margin.

After soo many posts trashing him, I would love Drai to have a huge game tonite.

 

[oXo Cube]

The Oilers are entirely capable of losing games 6-5, 7-6 etc so if you wanted to be absolutely certain he would probably need 15+ points in the next 2 games.

But obviously they would be extremely likely to win with scoring in the range of half of that.

For real, watching playoff Draisaitl at his best is just a treat for hockey fans generally

Has to be injured but still manages to get good opportunities if he catches fire and McDavid remains hot we could witness the reverse sweep in the finals. Last two games drai looked labored but was still able to be effective if he keeps playing with hustle he will have a good two games regardless of points

 

[Canovin]

50 points in 25 playoffs games would be insane

It's not good for the game to have no cup winners up here for over 3 decades.

Of course we would all prefer for it to be Montreal getting the Cup home but Edmonton will do.

 

[Crow]

To “ensure” it I’m saying more than 48.

Montreal was definitely in my Top 7 choices!

Who trashes him? I just see everyone assuming injury.

It’s kinda funny- start of the playoffs and there’s no excuse for poor performance, but now Tkachuk and Drai shit the bed and I just assume they’re very hampered.

Drai a dirty asshole though, so eh, deal with it big guy. I’m a fun of his offense, not his bullshit.

Anywho, go McDavid!

 

[Bertuzzzi44]

It’s a team game, there is only so much 1 player can do.

The Oilers have..

1. McDavid
2. Draisaitl
3. Bouchard
4. Hyman
5. RNH
6. Ekholm
..and 15 plugs.

If those 15 can elevate their game, like Brown & Perry did last game, the Oilers have a shot, McDrai are doing everything possible to help their team win there’s basically nothing more you could ask for.
