If it didn't happen in the 80's, it didn't happen
So I'm being laugh reacted for trying to stay positive?
f***ing ok.
Oilers in 5, bitches!

But they don't. The Oilers were Hells Bells intensity in this gqme. For sure played good enough to win and dominated facets of the game, absolutely dominated special teams. The Oilers were so good in this game they Outchanced the Kings on the 4 Kings PP's. The Oilers had edge in chances even on Kings man advantage. Scoring chances something like 16-7 Oilers. Kings score 5.I said Oilers in 6, only because they take the Kings lightly every single year
this is never gonna be a sweep...probably not even a 5-gamer
They had more breakaways than we did, just saying.
I'm not worried about this series, but the Oilers aren't winning the WC let alone the cup if they get goaltending like that.
No, he should take accountability for his shit play and move on.You mean skinner shouldn’t be crying and pinning himself to the cross because he needs to reset his mind and get ready for the next game?
Bro he doesn't think he played bad. His mental game is that strong.Skinner f***ing sucks. This team will have a hard team winning with him as our starter. He cannot make a f***ing save when it matters
I think this is an overreaction IMOHate to be a Debbie Downer, but I think the bolded is the rub of it
We should be happy that they made the playoffs and enjoy the ride. The team as is still far too inconsistent to be a serious contender
Hopefully some weakspots excised by the new GM
The Oilers 2nd best defensive dman (after Ekholm) is once again eating popcorn in the pressbox instead of being a positive factor on the ice for the Oilers.
Get Stecher in there... at least give this team a chance at having as good of a defensive roster as possible because the D needs some improvement as well.
You score 11 goals... you should win those 2 games.
I think there's a very good chance Stecher can make a difference out there defensively.
Speaking of invisible, how about that skinner guy that you keep defendingNuge is invisible. I don’t get the love for him.
Damn..I forgot about Sketcher. Yeah, why not.The Oilers 2nd best defensive dman (after Ekholm) is once again eating popcorn in the pressbox instead of being a positive factor on the ice for the Oilers.

Did we even have any scoring chances in the third and OT? We played timid hockey, Kings stayed composed and waited for the patented Oiler mistake.Kopitars goal was also the only actual scoring chance the Kings generated in more than 2 periods.
You give stuff up sometimes even when you're good. Other good teams get saves.
No they aren't. Their goalies are light years better though.It’s almost as if both of those teams are much better than we are.
He said he should have stopped goals he let in. But maybe he should think about the fans feelings moreNo, he should take accountability for his shit play and move on.
Well it was a ridiculous and stupid post.I don’t presume to know whatever that means.
Even if it’s supposedly tongue in cheek.
He’s a nice guy. Easy to like and on a good contract. He excels on the pp. lots to like about the guyNuge is invisible. I don’t get the love for him.
I think this is an overreaction IMO
Skinner was the weakest link tonight but McDavid was neutralized and the defense played soft...they can and will tighten up and the big boys need to show up
even a vet team like the Bruins lost at home to the Leafs
Holloway had an amazing game. Really good to see.Nuge simply MIA tonight. You have to get more from a veteran like that. Holloway was much better with far less experience. That is something that RNH should take note of.
Kings top players aren’t on the level of ours. But yeh, they made the plays tonight. Kempe with that bat out of mid air for goal 2. Byfield with the bat to Kopi in OT. They’re quick bang bang plays that they executed on. Meanwhile our guys found it difficult to get much going all game. We needed a couple of surprise Hollywood snipes to even have this tied.I agree with this.
Skinner wasnt the whole problem in this game. The Kings deserved this win. Their big time players out preformed the Oilers big time players. That might have been one of the worst games from McDrai I have seen in some time. The Kings absolutely neutralized McDavid. He was basically a non factor. Constantly trying to beat 4 or 5 Kings players one on one. Played right into their hands.
RNH was invisable. Hymen was the best top line player in this game for the Oilers.
If not for Holloway the Kings win this game fairly easily.
I agree with this.

Kopitar has been one of the most underrated stars in the NHL for at least a decade. That was a perfect shot over the shoulder-- like the famous Gretzky-Vernon shot back in the 80's.100%
Their big guns were very good.
I was surprised to see the Oilers big guns look so ineffective. They pounded McDavid every chance they got.
