Post-Game Talk: Smiling Stu Shutouts x 2!

[OfCorsiDid]

but but but matthews and leafs are better than mcdavid/draisaitl and the oilers

McDavid and Draisaitl quickly figured out that individual accomplishments meant nothing. Then they learned that regular season success means nothing.

Something changed in 2021-22 for this squad. They figured out the special sauce for winning in the playoffs. An elixir that evades many. Now they just need to piece it all together.

That game was screaming for a hero. Let's go kapanen!

 

[Missing smitty]

just as I expected, you’re a goof

I’m Done with your dumbass

So did you just create your account and start watching now?

The kid sucked. He got benched and hopefully that lit a fire under his ass. You being a moron doesn't change that.

 

[Moregoalspls]

Mcdrai are going to go off against dallas

 

[zoo99]

McDavid sounds like he got eliminated lol

All business this year

 

[VainGretzky]

If Jets comeback and we play them next the Refs are going to be so confused in what to do although the game was reffed real good tonight

If the Stars wrap it up tomorrow then the 1st game of the conference final should be on Sunday? Almost 4 days of rest for the boys.

 

[Ibanez]

He just wants to hang out with the boys

Now they can let loose in Vegas

Have a night boys. You’ve earned it

 

[Tarus]

Oilers win in 5, win all 3 road games, Skinner back to back shutouts in game 4 and 5? Someone should go check in on Hell, it's probably completely frozen over

Great win, on to the next with a bit of a rest and hopefully Ekholm back.

WTF YALL FIGHTING EACH OTHER, WE JUST WON AND ADVANCED BROTHERS LFGGGGGGGGGG
LET THE FIGHTING HAPPEN AT THE ICE DISTRICT WITH THEM BROCCOLI HAIR TEENAGERS ON YEGWAVE

Yes, the refs did a good job tonight. It isn't mentioned often enough.

 

[Spawn]

Never doubted Kapanen for a moment...

 

[Drivesaitl]

The year that I became a diehard Oilers fan. That Game 7 against Dallas is still the wildest roller coaster of emotions I've had as an Oilers fan.

Anyway, Kapanen cementing his legacy in Oiler lore forever. Knob continuing to push the right buttons.

I was defending Kaps play during season and also last game. he can bring good play for periods of time. he tends to fade away after 5 games but usually because he can't score much. But he came through tonight in style. I should call him scoring the winner more often.

What a time to score. What a time to be alive.

Somebody check on Flava Flav.

My lord what a terrible series for Vegas fans. Haha, see their club lose every game. Wouldn't be any happiness without Oilers fans there.

 

[Soundwave]

Boys are gonna tear the Vegas strip a new one tonight, lol.

That’s why you never write off a player in the playoffs, hockey is a funny game, anyone can go from bum to hero and back again in the blink of an eye.

 

[StoveTopStauffer]

Connor seems pissed in this post game availability lol

The media asks the same goddamn questions every single game. Incredibly low effort questions to be honest.

No, go straight to bed and rest up for the next 4 days. You can dance and drink with the cup in the latter part of June.

 

[Dirk Dangler]

That is the most efficient game I’ve seen Skinner play. Tracked the puck really well. Square to the puck all night. And hardly a rebound.

The Kapanen OT goal gave me Klima vibes. Different situation. But having a guy healthy scratched for 9 out of 11 games go out there and and the series was good vibes.

This team is legit. Glad we get at least a bit of a break for guys to rest up some bumps and bruises.

 

[WaitingForUser]

Crusty Connor in that interview. Now that's pissy. Can't say I totally understand why though.

He’s tired of the idea that the Oilers don’t play defence. He and Leon both made a conscious effort to become better defensively this season and last. Breakdowns happen to even the strongest “defensive teams” suffer them. It’s the same question every time the Oilers play that style. I get it.

Kapanen with the OT series winner fits in well with this post.

Yeah, haha I was thinking of Petr Klima earlier tonight too. Kinda odd. Also had a feeling Kapanen would score tonight. Didn't think it would be an OT 1-0 game though, lmao.

 

[AlbOilFAN]

Thank you blues for Kapanen and Pod

 

[Shizuka]

Boys are gonna tear the Vegas strip a new one tonight, lol.

Let's hope they moderate enough to not do anything stupid or dangerous! Have fun, enjoy but mostly just take it easy and rest. You haven't won any hardware yet!
