Where did Edmonton’s PK rank in season? Wasn’t it bottom 15?

Middle of the pack I think right around 15 but top 10 under knobloch or more specifically mark stuart

 

[PuckG]

Oilers beating Dallas is the biggest upset of these playoffs

Only if you aren’t paying attention.

How is Dallas getting out goalies by Edmonton

Otter has been super hot / cold during this run and it looks like he got cold at a bad time.

 

[Oilslick941611]

You would hope the team with their run on the line would come out flying. Too bad their special teams are dog shit. They could be leading this game or at worst down by 1.

But they haven't come out flying. I wouldn't call that period "good" by Dallas. It was a disaster. Sure they outshot Edmonton, how many were HDC that might have been goals? 1? if that?

Oilers beating Dallas is the biggest upset of these playoffs

Shows how the playoffs have been. Dallas was the favorite but I’d hardly call this a big upset

 

[Zaar]

Skinner was solid in that first period. PK spectacular. McDavid just McDavid.

 

[Matty Sundin]

I wonder if Mcdavid washes his suit that he wears everyday

 

[BMOK33]

I guess it’s not really a win for ESPN no matter what but holy hell is Edmonton Florida bad for ratings, not that Dallas was any better. TNT probably glad they don’t have the final this year

 

[nbwingsfan]

Good. So annoying listening to such f***ing stupid takes year after year.

100%.


Once Detroit was eliminated I was all in on cheering for the oilers so the Leaf and Flames fans have nothing left to make ridiculous comments about.

Although I’m sure it won’t stop them, they’ll just reach a level of insanity so high they won’t even be worth paying attention to

 

[PromisedLand]

Otteinger buddy make a save

Dallas score freakin goals. Stop looking for pretty plays and shoot the frakin puck

But they haven't come out flying. I wouldn't call that period "good" by Dallas. It was a disaster. Sure they outshot Edmonton, how many were HDC that might have been goals? 1? if that?

I’m talking about effort. They have had the share of the possession, more shot attempts, more pucks to the net. Execution has been lacking but a large number of those shots could have ended up in the back of the net off a bounce.

 

[voxel]

Dallas has been the better team. I fully expect them to force game 7.

Edmonton can't withstand this pressure for much longer.

Oettinger has been bad IMO, He will cost them this game if he continues like this tonight.

 

[Panthers Propaganda]

Dallas's defensive structure is imploding.

 

[Pablo El Perro]

Shows how the playoffs have been. Dallas was the favorite but I’d hardly call this a big upset

You could say the same about Edmonton vs. Vancouver or Florida vs. Boston and NY.

effort is nothing without results.

Edmonton knows this well.

 

[Straight Fire]

If Oilers score at will on the power play and then don't allow the opposition to score on their power plays no team has a chance. Maybe Florida can do both.

 

[Roomtemperature]

Wayne Gretzky with that fake tan and eyebrows looks like an evil clown during his casual non clowning time

 

[MessierII]

Oettinger has been bad IMO, He will cost them this game if he continues like this tonight.

Which goal should he have had?

 

[Clint Eastwood]

The series is far from over but Oettinger has been a bigger detriment to his team in net than Skinner.

 

[McHelpus]

Oettinger has been bad IMO, He will cost them this game if he continues like this tonight.

How are you realistically saving those goals? That's not on him...

 

[Cyclones Rock]

Ceci and Jankrok both had excellent chances which didn't end up as shots on goal.

 

[nerevarine]

I find it hilarious that people think florida wins a game in the scf

 

[Matty Sundin]

You could say the same about Edmonton vs. Vancouver or Florida vs. Boston and NY.

Teams that won those were actually the favorites.

 

[Hockeyholic]

Oettinger has been bad IMO, He will cost them this game if he continues like this tonight.

My prediction is Oettinger puts up a shutout from here on out and Dallas scores 4.

I will admit I was wrong if none of the above happens.

Dallas just needs to stay on it

 

[BMOK33]

If Oilers score at will on the power play and then don't allow the opposition to score on their power plays no team has a chance. Maybe Florida can do both.

I think Florida will just take way less penalties but also historically officials call less in the final than the conference finals so if you only get 2-3 PPs a game, if that then the special teams matter way less anyway
