Post-Game Talk: Time to finish the story

[Dirty Mind]

Best the NHL can possibly get is these two clubs fighting it out.

Are Oilers on a 12-2 playoff run or am I bad at Math? they lost the first 2 games and nonstop heater since. Thats gotta count for something. Seems like we're coming into final the hotter club.

edit: you are right: 12-2 after dropping first two in LA

Look up Pete is 5 minutes major

 

[tiger_80]

Weird why? What a strange thing to say about this team lmao

They did not play too well during the regular season. Ekholm got injured. Skinner played like shit. They lost two first games to LA.

Glad that Connor and Leon touched the Cup. Why not? Do it. Just make sure you touch the other cup too.

Small salute to the straggle of Dallas fans that stayed around for the presentation, some of them did.

Anyone that says with 10 minutes left in game 3 of the LA series they believed we would be here now is full of crap. Amazing

10 mins before that I said I still believe

 

[Jarvi]

Called Oil in 5 here. I can't shake the feeling that we sweep the Rats.

 

[Lay Z Boy GM]

Stu, like everyone from Edmonton, LOVES Gene

 

[Drivesaitl]

Close. 12-4.

I meant since the first 2 losses. Its been 12-2 since. Quite a heater.

 

[MessierThanThou]

I think everyone, including Stu, was adjusting to the new guys and new lines/pairings. He had a rough game but made some good saves. He's undoubtedly tired. That three-game run was freakishly good and probably the best three-game run of any goalie in these playoffs so far. This break comes at a good time for him.

It's downright scary that this team closed out Dallas with Stu just having an .824...

And it's not a game 5 series-closer without a cherry on top from Kasperi "The Empty Net King" Kapanen.

 

[Lay Z Boy GM]

I meant since the first 2 losses. It’s been 12-2 since. Quite a heater.

And it was very close to being 12-0

Gawddamn

Since then they scored 5 goals in four games, three of them tonight.

Never forget. Ferraro is still crying between the benches.

Yes, but only in an alternate reality where the oilers could be considered the favorites in the west. You really think either of LAK or EDM are better than WPG, VGK, DAL?

Yes.

I kept receipts.

I’ve had a bunch of gratifying moments on HF, but this is up there.

 

[tiger_80]

Did not Perry make it to like four or five Stanley cup finals in a row?

TIME! TO! FINISH! THE! STORY!

Never forget. Ferraro is still crying between the benches.

And most of them will still pick the panthers, just like they did with the stars, or VGK, or LAK.
We're forever the underdogs but we'll take it.
GO OILERS GO.

Breaking tradition there, touched it! Maybe it signals belief and not superstition.

Stupid superstition. He didn't touch it last year and they lost lol it means absolutely nothing

 

[bellagiobob]

We’ve seen this look before. It’s a death sentence for other teams.

They did not play too well during the regular season. Ekholm got injured. Skinner played like shit. They lost two first games to LA.

Injuries… that’s it. We all know this team can over come anything. Being an oil fan and still doubting this team is something I don’t understand

Every superstition is dumb it isn’t a thing lol

Look at all the Oilers hating idiots.

 

[PositiveCashFlow]

Wow shocked that he touched the trophy. And that’s the most solemn and serious trophy presentation I’ve ever seen, granted that’s not the trophy they want

 

[MoontoScott]

Perry is a legend though

I guess its a good thing that the team didn't listen to my suggestion-- put Perry on waivers and keep Lavoie.

 

[Heavy Dee]

Look at all the Oilers hating idiots.

NOBODY PICKED OIL IN LESS THAN SIX
