Toronto is not the 3rd best team, give me a break. Did you even watch games 5 and 7 on their home ice? LOL. They are closer to the bottom to me. They showed that right there with those games.

LA is much better than the OP is giving them credit for. Frankly, they were a tougher out for the Oilers than Vegas.

Were they though? Oilers from round 1 isn't the same team that we saw in round 2 or 3.

They're the only team that took one of the finalists to 7 games.

Do you think Dallas beats Toronto in a 7 game series? I honestly don't.

They only won 2 series in 9 years. Of course I see Dallas beating them. I also see SJ beating them. It's just the way it is. I am a Leafs fan, I have seen all these series.

2 in 9 sounds better than 2 since 2005

Your "Wester is bester" geography-based order is way off. C- Get a globe or at least a map that depicts lines of Lat/Long.

This core is not responsible for what happened before them.

Yes, you are right about that. I think they should run it back.

1-14 doesn't matter
99. Canes even though they got to the finals.

 

[Castle8130]

1. Vegas
2. Dallas
3. Avalanche
4. Toronto
5. Carolina
6. Winnipeg
7. St Louis
8. Tampa Bay
9. LA
10. Minnesota
11. Washington

13. New Jersey
14. Montreal

The Metro quarter finals Carolina won in hasn’t been good since the Islanders won it. Every year, all those teams look dreadful. Washington, Montreal, and New Jersey looked like they didn’t belong in the playoffs

Speaking as an Oiler fan, LA was a tougher out and series than Vegas or Dallas.

How so? Other than Skinner pulling his head mostly out of his butt after laying eggs in the first two games.

Hockey doesn't even belong there so their 99th place medal should be made from a dried cow pie and string. It would look like their terrible logo too. Total poo-frauds, they are.

 

[KingPuckChoo]

LA was the best team for Bronze, unfortunately our coach is a total buffoon and cost us the series against a very beatable McDrai team

This will haunt me for years

Not sure how “beatable” the Oilers were but LA is better than people credit them for and should be high on most lists. LA was also fortunate to run into a crippled EDM for the first few games.

 

[Megustaelhockey]

Any team that doesn't win the Stanley Cup ties for 31st. Or "2nd," if you want to be kind.

 

[North Cole]

I think Dallas beats Carolina. I'm not sure why all the other teams are here, a bronze medal game is between 3/4...not a whole new play down of all the teams that busted in round one and two.

Admittedly would be funny to see the Canes vs DeBoer conference finals curse.

If you're not first...you're last!

Oh yes that McDrai roster that acted all "we are underdogs - but we're healing as we go" despite the intensity of the playoffs

i need to drink that miracle water of theirs

LA, DAL, VGK were all favoured to beat the Oilers by panels across ESPN, NHL, Sportnet etc.

Irrespective of the that - I doubt this iteration of the Oilers cares about underdog vs not, just like they don’t give a shit about touching the cup or not. They’re on a mission.
