GDT: WCF | GM2 | Dallas Stars vs. Edmonton Oilers | 7:00PM CT | TNT

Still early but this is why it's silly making proclamations based on other series. I saw people say how the Rangers and Panthers will get smoked in the final. Well people were saying the same thing about Oilers in this series because they looked meh against an underwhelming opponent playing their third string goalie. But so far they look better than Dallas.

If this period is any indication, im not sure if edmonton loses another game these playoffs

 

[MessierII]

Man that Hyman one was closer than I thought

 

[BB79]

Do the goals smell like painted cast iron?

Only if they hit the post and go in..that's powder coated steel though

 

[Cloned]

Does Dallas not have any better options than Petrovic? Seem weird to randomly play someone who’s been out of the league for 5 years at age 32.

“Depth”

 

[Dirty Dan]

Just watched that 1st Oiler goal. Oettinger is kinda bad. He seems to let alot of weak goals in. Oilers may win this series.

He's like 6''5 with huge pads , thats good enough

Marner is routing for Edmonton?

Id be surprised if Marner knew Edmonton's Area code.

People not giving Nucks the credit they deserve. Very well rounded and tough team that we beat

 

[Tofveve]

Oilers controlling the play since they scored

Bingo

Dallas has to quit with these deflating quick goals the other way

 

[Pablo El Perro]

Jackie Redmond moving on up from the NHL network days

It's just good to have a little less creepy

 

[Three On Zero]

Pretty even start, neither team seems to want to play D

 

[jgs]

it's the first period

Yes it is. They are at Home, lost the first game and come out flat. Did u hear what Grez said in the pregame. If Oilers come out of first period in good shape, they will win the game.

 

[BB79]

Yeah, the Oilers have that 3rd gear, they're crazy to watch when they're going on all cylinders. Especially McDavid

 

[WhiskeyYerTheDevils]

Dallas doing a lot of standing around

 

[Summer Rose]

Rusted cast iron

Ferrous oxide?

Only if they hit the post and go in..that's powder coated steel though

I thought they were cast iron... my bad.

A three speed? Not sure about the analogy.

 

[Despote]

Turns out Oilers were actually a good team

They are playing championship hockey rn.
And from what I understand the rest of Canada must be very excited if those pizza commercials are to be believed

No I mute the sound and grez was a phenomenal player but might be the worst commentator of all time. Anyway, enjoy the game.

 

[SullivanT]

Thats the second time Bouchard got high sticked this game

 

[Tofveve]

I didn't see it actually connect with Bouchards face. Looked like it just missed. I need another replay.

 

[BB79]

A three speed? Not sure about the analogy.

Some teams have a 2nd gear, I called Edmonton's a 3rd because of McDavid's ridiculous speed

 

[DarrylshutzSydor]

2 minutes for holding the stick

 

[Giggli G]

2 huge saves by Oettinger

I'm happy the Oilers won even though I cheered for the Canucks. Oilers are the better team and have a good chance at the Cup.
