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

[GreeningOil]

I understand Oilers fans are excited, but this is literally a one trip pony once again.

it’s the same shit every single year

Legitimately curious without talking shit here, Oilers fans, what makes you think you have any chance against Colorado or Dallas if you’re just gonna be a PP only team?

Legitimately curious

 

[JKG33]

Harnaryan is giggly LOL

It's like they hired a dumbass fan outta the crowd to do PBP.

Wait no, that fan would probably still have more composure

 

[Coffey]

lol oilers only team that gets criticized for scoring on PP when there’s some teams out there that can’t do jack with a PP.

Nobody gets PPs in the playoffs!

Yeah its a negative when you can score on the PP somehow, some posters on this website are seriously demented

 

[Mr Positive]

There is no way anyone is gonna beat Edmonton if officials are gonna call penalties like this

Yes we have skilled players who are forcing teams to hook and grab. It's not like the Oilers get caved 5 on 5, even without these last two goals after the PP.
The Kings had a fluke goal this game.

lets not act like the Avalanche don't get by on PP's

 

[robertocarlos]

Next goal wins? Need some of that Kopitar/Kempe magic.

 

[Master Yoda]

U first

Wtf? Lol

 

[soothsayer]

Fiala is such a little bitch lol.

Only one that is even remotely questionable is the Dubois call. Every other one was warranted. Keep crying though.

 

[Muffin]

Two things that were obvious coming in:

Gary Bettman's shitty playoff format is seriously flawed
The Kings weren't winning shit with their AHL quality goalie tandem

I honestly don't think the Kings could've beaten Washington. Definitely the worst team in the playoffs.

Yup. Oilers get the benefit of the weaker bracket again, and will run around acting like their team is great for winning a round or 2. When in reality they get clapped the second they play a real contender

 

[killermiller]

GL for the rest of the playoffs Oiler fans.


Wish it was more competitive from our side but we knew we weren't winning this one.
Doesn't help that the officiating made this frustrating to watch with phantom calls on both sides throughout the series, difference was the Kings PP was dog water and the Oil PP was gold.

 

[MessierII]

I honestly don't think the Kings could've beaten Washington. Definitely the worst team in the playoffs.

Here they come

 

[Oilslick941611]

So 11 more goals on special teams for Oilers. Those were PP goals tonight


11-0

actshully 2 even strength in the 2nd period.

3 EV goals and one PP goal?

Are you crying right now?

 

[DarrylshutzSydor]

penalty not called on oiler defenseman for holding on Arvidsson

 

[GoldenBearHockey]

Wait, are there some people who think those penalties were legit? Jesus Christ, Been an official for 30 years, those refs, aren't doing any more playoff games.....let alone going to round 2,

Just absolute garbage.

 

[TheBeard]

There wasn't one.

Then I have no idea how they have conclusive evidence one way or the other

 

[Tebowz]

Kings well get a few even up calls in the 3rd so watch for a comeback

 

[Mr Positive]

Low iq fans will complain about the pp but the simple fact is no team can compete with the oilers speed and skill, the options are either hook hold and trip or let them dance around and score on you. They arent taking penalties for fun.

If they didn't hook any grab then our even strength scoring would be better. Like that call on McDavid, if they don't impede him there, he's got a clear lane to the net

 

[OilWagon]

Yup. Oilers get the benefit of the weaker bracket again, and will run around acting like their team is great for winning a round or 2. When in reality they get clapped the second they play a real contender

We get it you're a Leafs fan. They would be world beaters if they didn't have to play teams like Columbus and Montreal in the first round.

 

[hangman005]

Really think LA should take this moment while the Oilers are distracted by "intermission" and put 10 in the back of the net.

 

[JKG33]

I honestly don't think the Kings could've beaten Washington. Definitely the worst team in the playoffs.

It's funny, a month or so ago I was thinking they'd matchup great vs Jets if they fell to a wild card. But beyond that, yea not many teams I'd see this years Kings beating
