WCF: Edmonton Oilers vs. Colorado Avalanche ( Avs lead 3-0 )

[EverTheCynic]

Holy overreactions to a single game...batman...

Not a single game.

Look at all the 1Cs on cup winning teams. Toews. Bergeron. Kopitar. Point. Sid.

Notice how there’s no weak floaters on that list? Weird, huh?

Mack showing mcdavid the lights

On how to embellish? Sure...

 

[Hank Plank]

Who are the Oilers going to blame their game 2 loss on? They’ve already used up their ref card.

Guys on 630 Ched are playing the injury card.

 

[TruePowerSlave]

Toews - Makar is such a fabulous pairing, excellent job shutting down McDavid.

 

[OilersFanatics505]

Lol we are just happy to be here. Don’t really care if the Avs win. The Lightning are winning the Cup anyway.

Lol you been trash talking all series… can’t pull the “oh we’re just happy to be here” nonsense with your shitty takes.

Gretzky trying hard to coach the Oilers

I mean, by all means...please take Gretzky's coaching advice, Oilers

 

[fsanford]

You can’t be a floater and a wimp and lead a team in the playoffs. That is just never how the game has been.

I guess maybe for a brief

I agree with Mike Milbury on this. What about it

Milbury was one of the worst GM's in NHL history, so if you agree with him enough said.
If given an opportunity to have McDavid on their team, you are saying NHL GM's should take 5 other guys.

 

[Chips]

Oilers are an easy team to root against.

Seriously. I used to wish McDavid would get on another team, but for a different reason lol.


We saw in the late/middle part of the Kings series and we’re seeing it now, soon as things aren’t going their way you’ve got Kane going high, Nurse going high or taking a guy down from behind, tough guy Kassian going after a young player half his size, Drai with the stick work and Keith maybe chipping in


Literally all that happened tonight and game 5 round one. Like exact

 

[CrownofThornton]

Tonight I’ve learned that the Oilers are Caps west (I.e. a dirty ass team).

Except they look like absolute clown shoes assuming that identity. Atleast the caps have some toughness to go with their dirt.

I also haven’t seen so much stickwork from a superstar of Draisaitl’s caliber in some time. Boy does that guy seem to enjoy administering high sticks.

 

[OilersFanatics505]

So typical of him. If there is a big game and things don't immediately go right, he goes into a shell and stays there. That's 's not greatness.

If the Avs had scored two more, he would have padded his stats with a couple of assists.

Frankie! Frankie! Frankie! Frankie!

 

[Cousin Eddie]

That was an absolute beatdown

 

[LTIR]

I’ve never disliked the oilers and generally pull for them when they aren’t playing the Avs but I sure don’t like Kane.

You would have liked him if he was on your team. The fact that you can like a shithead like Kadri proves my point.
We hate Kadri but could certainly use a player like him. Kane has been one of the best Oilers and pretty much the biggest reason why the team is in final 4

 

[OilersFanatics505]

Stay classy guys.

But the diving of the Avs is much worse than in the nba or even soccer.

I love hockey for its hard an honest look...but every player touched by a shade of the hit is falling like an Oscar actress.
That wasn't the reason for losing today but it's hard to watch.

Nevertheless its not undeserved for the avs...if you eat 3 goals in a minute you are not worthy.
Back in denver for game 5 (or not)
Good night.

“Stay classy” decides be a sore loser. Pot meet kettle.

 

[Foppberg]

Toews/Makar have done an awesome job of shutting down McDavid so far. I don't expect that to last forever but they're holding him at bay for now.

 

[redandyellowcametobe]

Series is far from over but really good game for the Avs

 

[AMDZen]

Refalanche baby

I was worried for a few in the second period but then I double checked and, yes indeed our check cleared this morning.

 

[OilersFanatics505]

we have our hands full with the rangers and their stud goalie

I'm not punching any tix

Finally a team that can lose with Grace.

God I love Biz being on the panel, what a great guy.

Rishaug just trolling now haha

[a mangy Meowth]

I laughed so hard when Biz said he would dump it into the corner there. That was hilarious

 

[crue7]

I don’t mind Kane doing that crap at the end. I mean the games over so you might as well try to create a little emotion for the next game.
