This is an atrocious effort to be quite honest. The Oilers just can't handle being frontrunners.
And yes, I know they're up 1-0 but an extremely fortunate 1-0.

 

[DrDrai]

Yeah but that's a hallmark of his game right? Makes the call to rush in a tight game, gets caught deep, and the rush doesn't even result in a good chance as the play dies. Smarter D know when to make the call and when to hold back, this guy...

I don’t remember the last time he scored on that weak wrister on one of the rushes either.

Just a huge liability when he does that, also never seen a guy lose the puck in his feet more often than him.

 

[T-Funk]

If not for Skinner.. I don’t even want to think about it

Credit to him this game for sure.

The kings are out skating us, dominating the game. That said we might as well change their name to the LA Interference

 

[TheNumber4]

Kinda reminds me of the Stars game where they had possession for long spurts but Vegas in zone D was solid.

 

[Ritchie Valens]

If not for Skinner.. I don’t even want to think about it

He’s had a solid 40 minutes.

 

[Ruok]

Very quick two periods. Both teams ready for bed.

 

[JeffSkinner53]

In the playoffs- Just win baby. All that matters is the score.

 

[soothsayer]

People wanted Edmonton to be up multiple goals by now, but the Oilers have played an excellent game. This is what the Oilers were looking for.

They won’t all be pretty in the playoffs and a goalie usually has to steal 1 game a series.

You don't enjoy non-sensical circles, lines and arrows drawn over a video?

Lol remember when colour commentators first got ahold of those things in the mid 90s?

 

[Vagabond]

LA playing real hard/desperate hockey. Oil doing a good job tho keeping them to the outside. They're outshot but playing it smart. Hopefully the 3rd period is thier best period to close this game!

 

[McBigYak]

Pretty solid game by the Oilers thus far.

The only clear standout to me this game on the bad side is Foegele is making some really poor passes to absolutely nobody. It's like he's anticipating the play but just anticipating it completely wrong.

 

[CupofOil]

Ceci ridiculously indecisive with the puck in front of him. His brain just shutting down

The Nurse-Ceci pairing is an adventure every shift, just like every playoff run.

 

[Louis Cypher]

Like the song.

Getting closer to... losing my mind with these f***ing commercials on stupid high rotation. Boycott all these asshole advertisers.

 

[Dazed and Confused]

The Kings get sustained control, but the Oil are giving up nothing in their own zone.

They’re playing very well defensively

 

[Jimmi McJenkins]

Skinner continuing the solid play. They need more shots and to get more traction 5 on 5, but I love the effort.

20 more hard minutes and the Kings are up against it.

 

[Shizuka]

Need to find a way to get far more shot volume fired at the net, there is no way they can rely on holding off LA. Just playing with fire like that. Need to utilize all the blocks and tight coverage in the slot to create some more chaos.

I recently had my first TNT hockey experience. It's painful to watch.

 

[TheNumber4]

The Kings get sustained control, but the Oil are giving up nothing in their own zone.

keeping them to the perimeter for sure. And when they thrreaten the net front they’ve been stuffed.

 

[KeithIsActuallyBad]

The Nurse-Ceci pairing is an adventure every shift, just like every playoff run.

Guaranteed if the kings score it’s on that pairing.

 

[Bryanbryoil]

If not for Skinner.. I don’t even want to think about it

Skinner has been great but we have been blocking shots, deflecting pucks and not allowing a lot or 2nd and 3rd chances either.

 

[Satire]

Yeah lot of interference out there. The penalty called on the Kings was weird too. There was a sequence of about 2-3 penalties by both teams before that and then they decided to call that one. Very weird.

Oilers playing patient and smart, but Kings look way hungrier than us.
