This place sure oscillates between hyperbole and deflection a whole lot.

Good series so far, two really good teams and we get at least two more games of this!

2for1pizzapasta was incredibly kind enough to let you off the hook but my man over there wasn't!

What?

Aren't you the guy who thought Roope wasn't going to help in his return?

Nope.
Just one good team and another team that just wants it more.

 

[GirardIsStupid]

I'd like to think most Oiler fans aren't even bothered by it, Avs were a wagon that year.
Now if we got swept by Flames or Canucks? That would sting.

Fair enough.

 

[Section337]

Wants it more. Try harder. Outworks...

No shit that is the difference when you get deep in the playoffs. Teams are good or have played good for the last month to make it to this point. Outside of goaltender robbery or bad luck, the team that plays better in a game usually wins. But the best thing about the playoffs, sometimes you have games where neither team is really outplayed, then we just get good hockey where one team comes out on top.

Crazy. A Dallas fan shows up.

I never left

Yes, true, that's how you get pucks deep more often.

so what does this mean? Broken? Bruise? Will he play?

Good to go for G5.

He's walking around on it at least, no crutches or anything........hopefully good to go for tomorrow.

Let's hope it's not 2022 all over again.

Did not age well.

Yes this is why I don’t play the stock market


Right now it feels like an “oilers in 7” type of series, which I didn’t expect going into it. Oilers looked very good yesterday - the PK is their secret weapon

But our gentlemen's sweep of the Flames after Game 1 so so sweet I mean, yeah losing to Colorado sucked....but we could still laugh at Calgary.

 

[Bernie Federko]

The Oilers play, particularly in their own zone was really bothering me last night. So many unforced errors when exiting, just fundamentally horrible, but they got away with it.

The word I was thinking of is haphazard

PK MERCHANTS

Fibula isn't much of a weight bearing bone (looked like he took the shot off the outer ankle) so doesn't necessarily tell us anything. You can walk in a boot with a broken fibula if its a non-displaced fracture in many cases.

That was a wild game last night. Both conference finals have delivered

 

[roccerfeller]

PK MERCHANTS

Haha
Literally !

 

[snag]

Are you struggling to simply post now?

I loved this one from our favourite thread:

Oilers now 13-12-1: THE THREAD THAT'S FUN FOR EVERYONE

Charlie McAvoy, “elite” defensively High danger chances against: 77 in 355 minutes Evan Bouchard, ECHLer High danger chances against: 65 in 403 minutes Stop mentioning valid statistics! What else do these people have if they can’t chirp?

Bro, they just wanted it more.

But did the oilers deserve it

 

[SeanMoneyHands]

Hope Pavelski shows up for game 5. He can show up anytime now

 

[SullivanT]

I'm never cocky about the Stars, because I don't trust them in this situation. As soon as the Oilers scored their first goal tonight I felt the game was over and we were gonna lose lol

Oh man as an OIlers fan I know this feeling well oh so well so so well haha especially if it happens in the 2nd period or late in the 3rd. Oilers could be up three goals with 8 mins left in the game and if the opposing team scores one I'm like well that's that game over haha.

 

[Coffey]

But did the oilers deserve it

It's one or the other, Tobias.

The Oilers are the superior team in this series. The Stars if you look at production on paper are a strong team. The reality is their team game is either off or not very good. Too spread out and get very little zone time. Sadly, I expect the Oilers to close this out in 6.
