I'm responding to a guy saying we would've been swept.
All I will say is this series is what round two would have looked like all things being equal. Stars or the nucks would have been a much better finals.

The oilers are a one trick horse and that horse is ready for the glue factory.
Gazdic ain't talking shit no more.

Oilers fans somehow blaming the refs, like come on this is men against boys out there.

I want the Oilers to win, but even more than that I just want some better hockey.

What a horribly boring two games these have been.

Happy my team is winning but I agree. I would even describe them as weird/odd games I don't know why just a strange series and not what I expected but i'll take it.

Oilers get more calls than any team in the league. If Draisaitl isn't suspended then this league has essentially become the NBA. He should be done for the rest of the playoffs minimum.

The Oilers blueline has finally been exploited in the playoffs. Canucks exploited them too but now against a much better team, their D is really bending to the limit.

Hahahaha, what? Both those teams were completely out of gas. Would have been Florida in 4 periods.

Skinner has actually played pretty decently these first two games. The Oilers claimed all they needed was average goaltending to win but so far it’s been their offense letting them down. You’re not going to win scoring one goal in two games.
Oilers needed Skinner to play average or above average to have a chance. Credit where it's due, Florida is smothering Edmonton's offence. I think Bob is getting the Conn Smythe at this rate, even if it's a Florida effort at large.

just like they were done in November right?
I get what you are saying. But you aren't playing Sharks, Yotes, Hawks, Ducks which dotted the Oilers schedule on the turn around.

The problem is the Oilers thin bench is catching up with them. Panthers just have a great D and are as deep as any team in the NHL. Not many 1 line teams hoist the cup.
