Post-Game Talk: Pickard orders McDavid to go warp speed

I'll make it as clear as I can: I don't feel bad that they got a break. They are certainly owed after years of getting screwed.

I don't expect them to get more breaks like that in the playoffs, so they need to play better.

I don't know how anyone can argue with any of that.
The previous Oilers-Knights series turned on a phantom call against Broberg, where he was the one was grabbed first. I have no sympathy for this "missed call".

WAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH, go on LTIR you whiny bitch

And the ref responded I don't need any exspleening from you cheater
 
Agreed...but it's still technically a comeback win.
They can make all the stupid categories they want. Overcoming a 1 goal first period deficit isn’t all that impressive. It just means the Oilers need to be prepared to play at the drop of the puck for a change.
 
Man. They got f***ed by that no call on RV. I can tell you it’s kind of nice to be on this end of bad officiating for once. 🤡. Let em whine, we ain’t losing any sleep over that one !

Thank goodness for well timed ref blindness and not being able to video review every play.

Maybe Arvidsson being tiny helped too :) Just disbelief that McNabb could have been taken down by little RV.
 
Besides the tipped goal (as it’s poor to blame any goalie for that) Pickard let in goals you guys crucify Skinner for tonight and in his other starts.

If Skinner played this game you guys would be complaining about him giving up the lead in the third and Mcdrai saving his ass etc.
How salty are you that Pics is getting all the headlines while your boy Skin Job sits on the bench?
 
Those passes we allowed on the PK were so bad. Just plain rude to Pickard. Really wish we could get even 75% of our PK of last playoffs.

The Peter Angelo goal not great, but I think Pickard was worried about his leg hurting after Hertl fell on it, and he was distracted. Just bad luck.
Hard to believe that this 2024-25 Oiler power play is the same one we saw for so many of the MC-Drai years. Not much intensity. I thought that half of that 5 minute major was simply wasted?

I’m not sure how sustainable this is.
I think we'll be fine, riding 5 averaging 20 is not the end of the world, especially considering we went late into OT for this one. most teams shorten their bench come playoffs and give their top guys more ice time. we have an Ekholm defrosting the deeper we make it and guys like Bouchard and Nurse eat their minutes for breakfast
