Post-Game Talk: Smiling Stu Shutouts x 2!

[syz]

Also something I hadn't really thought of given the Oilers limped their way to the finish line this year, but they'd have home ice in the finals over both Florida and Carolina.

Pietrangelo saying in the post-game that he was injured, but was going to play no matter what. Glad Kapanen and Hyman "targeted" him repeatedly with big hits. At least this time Pietrangelo didn't try to break his stick over somebody's arm

He’s not much of a tough guy. Chris Pronger might have actually killed guys like Hyman and Kapannen if they’d have tried targeting him in a playoff series.

 

[Arty Spooners Bsmnt]

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.

But those Oiler fans sounded pretty happy!

 

[OfCorsiDid]

Jets are Jekyll and Hyde at home and the road. I think they’ll win game 5 but lose in 6.

Yeah what the f*** is with that? Might be caused by them having to drive to Grand Forks, ND to catch a flight I guess,

We only finished with 3 less points than last year despite the injuries.

Kapanen scores the game winner while our boneheaded media ask Nurse like 12 straight questions.

 

[PULSATING]

Those slaps from Drai lmao

Different game tho. Pronger in 2025 would not be able to catch either of them. He'd have to do a Pietrangelo or just get even in a scrum.

 

[Cloned]

Some people were chapped that we didn’t get Carlo and Laughton.

The enemy is hfboards

 

[bellagiobob]

I’m thinking back to our dzone structure last time we played Vegas compared to the last two games. Talk about exact opposites.

Not sure who to make my next avatar. The first 2 rounds were easy.

That’s a good start. Gives you a couple things to look at.

I’d say if it’s Dallas you gotta go with Seguin.
Jets - Schiefele or Pionk

Ooh Pionk is good

Hyman 13 hits tonight, up to 65 hits in 10 playoffs games played.

In 73 regular season games he had 59 hits total.

 

[AddyTheWrath]

Thank god. I hate the Knights franchise.

St. Louis and Toronto could of used Kapanen. Haha.

Two shutouts for Skinner. Amazing.

Not to be the annoying grammar guy but its “could have” btw. I’ll take the opportunity since I assume you’re in a good mood

 

[Faelko]

With the Oilers winning the series, do the Knights have to give Lavoie back now?

 

[rboomercat90]

I don't care how many teams he's linked to or how many interviews he's given, I think Woodcroft's real chance of landing another NHL head coaching job is near zero. And deservedly so.

We were told by the smart people on this board before Woody was fired that he would have his choice of jobs if we were stupid enough to let him go. I guess he’s still holding out for the one he really wants.

They should've played him today.

Gotta love Hyman. Doesn’t have that magic goal scoring touch lately, no problem, he makes up for it in other ways.

The vets we have scared us at times during the season but they figure out how to get it done when it matters most.

 

[MessierThanThou]

Haha loved when Kapanen called them out on it!

(starts at Kapanen's remark)

Are we not bringing Woody back after firing the dumb dumb knob?

Smart shit from Hyman. He noticed that his scoring touch dried up and went back to what made him successful before: forechecking. He's been tenacious these playoffs and been very physical. Smart player, if you can't be effective conventionally, be effective unconventionally.

 

[bellagiobob]

The replies from the out of the playoffs in round one Blues fans are a fun read.

 

[OfCorsiDid]

I like Kapanen with Drai a lot more than I was liking Arvid with Drai. lol

Gotta be strange to be J Skinner and Arvid in the moment. Team is a wagon, without you.

Jackson: Skinner, Arvidsson, Emberson

Bowman: Kapanen, Walman, Klingberg

Kane is the X factor.

Laughton scored a beauty against the Leafs tonight.
