4-1 Oilers

 

[Czechboy]

I'm guessing 4-3... or 5-4. Probably OT. I think King's pull it out and force a Game 7. They've been very resilient! I'd take a 5-0 win for my oil though and a stress free night!

Kings were showing they were a little long in the tooth, this extended rest MIGHT be what they needed. I still don’t see them winning though

I think it goes 7. I hope I'm wrong and it ends tonight though.

I think the long pause suits them more... they had 2 big injuries to start the series.

They've been so opportunistic and just hang around and do a great job. They are a classic bend but don't break!

MInd you, Kane isn't practicing much so he may have some big issues too so hopefully the rest helps him too!

Will be a tough game.

Go oilers

 

[LAKings88]

Let’s go Kings!

Just win.

 

[MessierII]

This will be a battle good luck kings

 

[Coffey]

This goes either way. Good luck kings. And I’m still mad other teams aren’t tested against LA two years in the row. I’d really like to root for them against someone else.

 

[dwonger]

Don't know why the Oilers fans are saying this will go either way. Talking like that Is much more of a Jinx then being positive and having confidence in your team.

The Kings are massive underdogs by Vegas and because money is involved they are spot on odds.

 

[KCC]

Wonder how bad the ice will be tonight? lol

I think it is because there are a lot of knowledgeable Oiler fans that realize we have played 5 games and 3 went to OT. A 4th wasn't decided till the final minute. Only one uneven game in 5. 4 out of 5 games have been VERY competitive and close. Or that it went to 7 last year. So I'm not sure calling the Kings massive underdogs is close when they took us to 7 last year and have taken us to OT 3 times this playoffs. It's close. I think my Oil are slightly better and should win but if they lose I won't feel like it was a 'miracle on ice' or some insane upset.

Outside of game 5, this series is about the pp. The kings have to better than 2/3, and flat out can't take anymore than 1 penalty. I;m not sure what changed from the reg season when the kings went 11/13 on the pk, including going 6-6 in one game to now. 6/14 is embarrassing.

Outside of one every game has been close. If you want to go further back those last two regular season games were equally close. It wouldn't shock me if it's another close game. Still I thought they would win in 6 so I will trust in that prediction. We have largely outplayed the Kings maybe outside of Game 4. Will trust in them to make the killing stroke.

GL tonight, but I’m confused by this comment. You do realize that the Kings are the 2nd youngest team (average age of roster) in the playoffs, right?

Yes but the older players are still easily the best players on the team.

Fair enough (I figured.). Veterans gonn’ be veterans, but overall I’m not too worried when it comes to Kopi and Drew.

Elder, on the other hand.

barf cry barf

this one is going to OT isn't it

 

[FlyingPhi]

Ripped this from Oilers+. That's a confident Captain. Right or wrong, love that he said it. They can't play with us. Goilers.

 

[JeffroTullison]

i'm feeling a blowout. Oilers win 6-1. McDavid 6 goals and Drai 6 assists. In the 3rd period the coach decides to only ice those 2 to keep things fair.

You really believe what fans say makes a lick of a difference to the outcome of a game?

For real?

I remember saying jinx when I was 10, and then I grew out of it because it's dumb

Jinxs don't exist. Not scared of em

Moss Pit and Fan Park crowds are absolutely insane. Go Oilers!
