“It wasn’t much, but I was trying to get a f***ing penalty on Edmonton before the period ended.”

These Oilers are different this year.

BELIEEEEVEEEE

 

[BlackDogg]

They just can't let them play when the score is 2-0 can they

 

[Ruok]

Skinner looked better as that period went on. Had a nice glove snag in there.

 

[elmeroil]

7 shots against, that's the key

Beauty first stop off a point blank shot off the face off too.

 

[foshizzle]

Oilers should be up 4 or 5 nothing. I am very uncomfortable with being just up 2.

Side note- Stone scores in the first 2 mins of the game??? They need to change this rule. If he is good enough to start game 1 - he should be playing the last game of the season

 

[TheNumber4]

Up by 2 after the 1st. Can’t ask for better than that. Now the real work starts. Protect that f***in lead.

Knob Coffey hockey is up.

 

[VainGretzky]

You and me both

Puck rolled up on end while he shot

Henrique is a very good player. He was getting little credit here. Bieksa and others see him as huge addition, he shows you why in that period. I don't get that people weren't making a fuss about this guy. What a period. He scores a beauty, deflects another that almost goes in, and has another scoring chance. He's so much better than RNH in that first line.

lol people were complaining about pushing Henrique to first line. That line is fire.

Drai doing everything possible to make a goal for Nuge and he astoundingly finds ways to miss two empty nets.

Oilers all over it but the shizzle isn't over. Oilers were jacked that period. lets see some 60mins.

 

[Zguy370]

Draisaitl with a monster of a period and setting up Foegele and Nuge with Grade A scoring chances and no finish with both

All too familiar, can't let the Kings hang around.

 

[Not Canada Drai]

Playoff hockey is a different animal when you're watching your own team. Gosh.

 

[Bring Back Bucky]

I am pleased overall.

 

[Davo Ikinzom]

Someone needs to make a gif of Foegle pasting Doughty on the first shift of the game. That look on Doughty’s face is almost avatar worthy.

and an avatar

 

[Mav3rick07]

Play like that for another 40 minutes and we'll have a series lead.

I liked the Henrique McDavid look at the end of the year. There’s something there for sure. Very smart player. He can play with McD.

 

[CycloneSweep]

12 years between playoff goals for Henrique. NHL record.

Apparently the pucked rolled on Nuge lol

They'll name it the Mark Stone rule

 

[Drivesaitl]

Great hitting hockey, physical play. Loving playoffs. This wasn't boring, this was some great great hockey.

Is the Dallas-Knights game not on any channel? Thats a premium series. How is it not being broadcast in Canada?

Hrudey is Talbot's biggest fan for 2 weeks

If you cant come off LTIR before the end of the season, you should be required to miss x amount of games in the playoffs.

Like always. I'm impressed he had his stick down for once in anticipation. So often he doesn't even have blade on ice.
