Post-Game Talk: Oilers Do Dallas and deliver the goods

[MoontoScott]

When will Bouchard be considered elite?

At the end of the next series.

Flames fans are straight up not having a good time. View attachment 878111

Hahahaha. My chicken breast a bit bland tonight, give me that salt!!

 

[CycloneSweep]

He’s no match for our offence. No goalie is. Not in todays league.

The only goalie left in the playoffs that I think could match it is Shesterkin but Florida is whittling him away

 

[jesusbuiltmyhotrod]

Bouchard has been so elite

Oilers seem stacked at D…. Damn did I just say that?

 

[tiger_80]

Broberg was a little tentative his first couple shifts but once he settled in I thought he was fantastic. He’s quick to pucks and has great outlet passes. He basically excels at everything VD struggles with

It's a terrific timing too. He's got some nice attributes compared to Desharnais and would give the team a lot of flexibility next season. They could, for example, unload Ceci and not lose any quality.

Can we all as a fanbase just enjoy the rest of this season? Who knows where it ends - but let's all stop with the negativity when we lose. This is the second best season we have had since 1991 - and still has potential to be the best.

We are so lucky to have this opportunity. Sit back and enjoy it.

 

[T-Funk]

Nurse ehhh but not in the way for once. Skinner amazing. Broberg pretty darn good. Zombie with a couple big ones. Feels good to give Dallas the big D.

 

[MessierThanThou]

D

Meanwhile the Oilers are getting contributions from every player except Foegele. Dallas can have him, lol

Losing Foegele's salary should cover most of Brown's bonuses that are on the books for next season...

 

[OilynutEsquire]

Same stuff I saw in the AHL. In the 1st period, all you needed to do was tap him and he'd cough up the puck. He's a great puck distributor and I've always said he would be an excellent PP QB on a different team.

Your eye test doesnt compute with my eye test. His advanced stats match my eye test, which usually reigns supreme. He has loads of gifts, amateurs focus on their bias

 

[syz]

Nuge owed everybody that one after game 3.

 

[dustrock]

The coach's favourite player in the world erasing his previous playoff reputation and writing volumes of new scripture.

I've been begging for a Pisani all playoffs long when he's right in front of me, I just needed to finally see the mustache

 

[tiger_80]

It means oilers aren't gonna have any cap space once we sign drai and Bouchard and connor lol

Better win this year. And maybe next. They are turning into the Chicago Blackhawks post 2015 the year after Draisaitl's current contract runs out. A couple of elite players and a lot of AHLers.

 

[TheNumber4]

The only goalie left in the playoffs that I think could match it is Shesterkin but Florida is whittling him away

We will too if he makes it. And at a higher clip than what Florida can muster. I have no doubt. Not in todays league. Talk to me in the days of Hasek/Roy and I may be worried.

 

[RegDunlop]

Played really well. That said Dallas were pad stuffing or shooting wide a lot.

Great game by the Oilers making it difficult for the Stars to get much. Only goal that did go in was kind of a hail mary deflection, really good play by Johnson but Dallas were not doing anything well offensively or otherwise.

Score says 3-1 but this was a shitkickng. Dallas were never in this. Oilers took game quick and never gave a crumb back.

Pad stuffing and shooting wide.
That's not what was on my tv

I agree. I’m f***ing sick of people saying that this team sucks and Ken Holland ruined it all. We’ve been one of the final 8 teams for 3 straight years FFS.

 

[dustrock]

Down Goes Brown the only Athletic writer to pick Edmonton. 5/6 picked Dallas.

 

[Pavel10]

Yeah I would say Holloway fills him.

 

[TheNumber4]

Difference between winners and losers. The Stars supposed depth doing nothing. Even their supposedly star depth doing nothing. To wit look at these 3:

Joe Pavelski ZERO pts in series. Duchene zero pts in series. Mason Marchment one assist in series. If that was gonna happen the Oilers are winning series, simple as that.

Meanwhile the Oilers are getting contributions from every player except Foegele. Dallas can have him, lol

I think with Marchment as excuse that he's playing injured but absolutly no shows from those 3 Stars players that are expected to get something done.

Sequin has gone asleep again as well.

Yes.

Like I said they don’t have that “it” factor. They never have. They got beat by Flames for that reason too.

 

[TheSuperElite]

Broberg will be him

 

[Drivesaitl]

I’ve been telling u all series Dallas is not as good as the nucks. Dallas depth and team were overrated.. they are good and it’s not over but oilers are the better team . Hopefully they close it out

Credit you.

Seems like Dallas are lacking some heart and dig down grit in series so far. Thing with VAncouver is they hated the Oilers so it was easy to come up with their best. I don't get the feeling Dallas are doing that. This was an absolute empty game for Dallas.

its not over, but Dallas didn't get themselves much tonight. Could see Deboers was disgusted with the play and effort level early on.

Oilers took the game and did it in what 10mins? Felt like it.

Oh as an allstar team Oilers have better top end, no doubt. The chance for Dallas was if their depth got anything done but not even Pavelski, Duchene, Marchment aren't getting a drop. Two of these players should be dropped. Pavelski and Duchene are years past it it seems. Strange because they both had it in regular seaosn but that don't mean a lot sometimes.

 

[Paralyzer]

WE WIN! Now WIN IT ON JUNE 2 FOR MY DAD!

WOOOOO!

 

[Dynamite Time]

Screw you MFers (joking) as a Stars fan cause it’s only sport but if we can’t pull the next two I’m on your side.

edit - has been a great series and a great game by your team tonight.

 

[FlameChampion]

It means he's a #1 Defenseman.

Only in the playoffs though … haha. He will never be as good as Quinn Hughes in the regular season.

 

[RegDunlop]

Great Victory boys!!! But Broberg sucks ASS!! Right? I need the apology from Cloned

Ha!

I think I'm well on my way to the feast as well. BBQ almost fired up and crow is marinating.

Well down Mr Broberg. Well done.
That physical side? Love it!!
