GDT: WCQF (Game 5) Edmonton Oilers vs. Los Angeles Kings, 10pm ET, ESPN

[Zanon]

Edmonton is going to get slapped silly in the next round.

The Edmonton Powerplays will feast on DeSmith/Silovs.

 

[nucks88]

Imagine them against either of Vegas or Dallas? lol. NVM Avs who have embarrassed them before

Sorta like the Leafs against the Panthers?

 

[trilobyte]

Stuart Skinner is a calming presence in net.

He's not getting stressed to shit, he can devolve mightily at times. But he is doing his job fer sure

 

[Czechboy]

No Save Dave sucks. He’s not an NHL calibre goalie.

He's allowed 2 goals in 4 periods and had a .921 on the season.

 

[Hank Plank]

L.A. Kings can't score blame the goalie.

No Save Dave sucks. He’s not an NHL calibre goalie.

You can say that for like 40 goalies in the NHL. Very few real starters, lot of dubious 2Bs and replacement-level netminders nowadays... some are just $2m Shooter Tutors.

Better team defence schemes and shot blocking feels like it's actually weakened goalie talent pools.

 

[biturbo19]

lol distressed F Bomb through the mics.

 

[kingsholygrail]

L.A. Kings can't score blame the goalie.

Reminds me of the series against Vegas. Quick averaged under 2gaa and a .941 or something in that sweep.

 

[Mez]

Bouchard maked 90mph+ shots look so casual.

Bouchard maked 90mph+ shots look so casual.

They're called Bouche Bombs. Show some respek.

 

[SullivanT]

L.A. Kings can't score blame the goalie.

Right guy gave up a 1 goal last game shorthanded and they didn't score a single goal and they are blaming the goalie lol

 

[BurnabyJoe7]

Oilers are so lucky they are in the Pacific. Worst division in the league easily



More like mental midgets

We going with playoff format as this year's excuse? Leafs blame their though division every year but their div hasn't won it in 3 years and the reigning champs are from the pacific.

 

[trilobyte]

Perry can still move quite well for a senior

 

[Tofveve]

Calling it now.. back to back 1-0 wins!

 

[Czechboy]

reigning champs are from the pacific

Shhh.. fans of the East like to tell everyone the Pacific sucks.

 

[BB79]

Oilers are so lucky they are in the Pacific. Worst division in the league easily

LMAO yeah, way worse than the Metropolitan Division who sent the -37 goal differential Caps and -20something Islanders in right?

 

[nucks88]

Dive

 

[biturbo19]

Perry can still move quite well for a senior

It's kind of funny that because he was such a slug even in his prime...he hasn't seem to actually drop off that much as he ages his way toward a retirement home.

 

[1989]

Perry can still move quite well for a senior

More like he has above-average hockey vision/positioning. The skating skill is OK but was never elite but he knows where to be versus needing to hustle to where he isn't.

 

[bdub24]

Go McKings McGo!

 

[MrHeiskanen]

Edmonton fans think their player can't get hit? What are they standing up with their arms for? lmao

 

[Coffey]

Really getting f***ing sick of that Scotiabank commercial with Smalltown Boy playing.

 

[fsanford]

The positive is Byfield sees the ice well and is one step ahead in many situations.

Imagine him in a system that is more open

 

[Lt Dan]

So cool that the Oilers fans are yelling "Dreeeww" every time Doughty touches the puck!

 

[Akrapovince]

At some angles, at some split instances, Foegele literally looks like McDavid lol.
