Pre-Game Talk: Pole - who wins Edm v Vegas

[OilerFanInLangley]

That Oiler team that played game 1 and 2 against the Kings is long gone.

This group has built momentum and chemistry all series long and they're going to come out swinging for the fences.

Hopefully before the teams are all done playing the second round, we get Ekholm back.

If you’re gonna start Skinner for a game don’t do it on the road. They’re gonna chant the f*** out of his name and it gets in his head.

If you have to go with him at some point do it at home.

Honestly think I hate Colorado fans just as much as Vegas/kings. Glad to see them go!

Vegas is probably my least favourite franchise.

But they barely even have fans especially on HFboards. Its a ghost town in their forums. So hard to hate them too much.

Vancouver probably my least favourite fanbase that I have experienced on here. Colorado is up there though. They have so many bandwagon fans on here.

I hope you’re right. Feels like the Oilers don’t fall into place until about game 3 though. Hopefully Pickard stabilizes us a bit too start … assuming he plays… ugh lol

Unless Pickard is injured, he has earned the next TWO starts (in my opinion).

Skinner crapped the bed and then got G2 of the first series...

Skinner crapped the bed

The book is out on him. Shoot high glove in close, or simple cross ice pass in the slot. He can't move across in time and his glove has always been weak. Also, he handles the puck like a grenade or passes it blindly up the boads where the opposition is waiting. He isn't getting better, he is getting worse. Time to get ridif him

 

[Duke74]

Knoblach undecided. Wtf??????

I'm sure he's decided, he's just keeping it private. You don't want to give Vegas too much information ahead of time for game strategizing and you want to prepare both goalies.

The book is out on him. Shoot.

Fixed.

Good analysis from The Cult, I think...

 

[1981 Oilers]

They say Dorofeyev could miss all or most of series. Leading goal scorer for Vegas. Thats a bonus for us
