GDT: WCSF - Game 2: Vancouver Canucks vs Edmonton Oilers | Fri. May 10th | 7pm PST | SNP/CBC | Don’t Change That Channel

[Fish on The Sand]

Cole as ice!

 

[Coffey]

I’d be an angry Canucks fan with the liberties taken on Hughes. Memories of the 2010 teams destroying the little dudes of the Oilers like Eberle and Gagner.

 

[GoldenSeal]

Having McDavid is like having the H-Bomb and the other side has spears.

No spears, just Cups.

 

[Mr Positive]

Grade A performance by Skinner.

If it weren't for the unforgivable goal at that bad angle it would have been a great night for him.

But it was unforgivable. It's more than a goal against. It's extra demoralizing. Luckily the guys persevered but if this becomes a common thing this playoffs the Oilers need to explore their options in the summer. He was bad vs Vegas last year too

 

[rea]

Gee Gee fans of the Oilers, fun game tonight! See y'all in a couple days! Onto game 3!

The other side has Cole

 

[tardigrade81]

If I had a nickel for every time the refs didn’t see a McDavid infraction.

Officiating has been bad on both sides. That high stick was brutal to miss

Go wan for fk sake he cut Hughes open.That was anyone but him they sit 4 mins

nobody is crying….. it was a BRUTAL missed call. Anyone will admit it. He’s just saying the refs have been horrible all around. There was 3 missed calls on the Canucks in the first. Officiating needs to be better

IT NEVER IS but it needs to be better.

 

[Tom Brady]

It's absolutely an honor and a privilege to watch GOD I mean McDavid play the game of hockey

 

[Sergei Shirokov]

Mcdiving should be getting about 2 or 3x the calls he actually receives, so if he steals a rare call it hasn't even made up for the 10-20 they ignored on him.

He tries his hardest but unfortunately for him the playoffs are a big boy game.

I said that tongue in cheek, realistically the officiating has missed calls pretty evenly both ways so far this series but tonight McDavid himself was definitely on the fortunate side of it.

 

[Summer Rose]

There was a dozen calls either way that could have been called. Getting into a PP fest with Edmonton is not going to make the score closer or in Vancouver's favor. I think everyone agrees just no more Sutherland.

I hope Kelly Sutherland doesn't get selected to move on to the next round.

I think skinner is the only thing keeping this series from being a sweep

Van just doesnt have the skill to compete with edmonton

I'm pretty sure canucks winning 4 of 6 periods kind of disproves this.

 

[ayoshi]

I think skinner is the only thing keeping this series from being a sweep

And Vancouver not having their Vezina calibre goalie. Not that Silovs was bad tonight, but I'm sure the Canucks would love to have a healthy Demko in net.

 

[VainGretzky]

McDavid has 15 assissts. Only 1 player had more than that all of last playoffs, Eichel had 20, Hintz was 2nd with 14. Hes unreal.

Draisaitl and McDavid have 1.66and 1,64 PPG in playoffs only behind Gretzky , both of them are playoff beasts , Oilers depth needs to start helping

 

[syz]

Still want to know why Draisaitl got a penalty for getting mugged by all 5 Canucks. JT Miller throwing sucker punches at everybody the entire scrum and he gets nothing.

 

[Three On Zero]

I’d be an angry Canucks fan with the liberties taken on Hughes. Memories of the 2010 teams destroying the little dudes of the Oilers like Eberle and Gagner.

No ones really taking liberties on him, nothing to be mad about. A missed double minor isn’t exactly taking liberties

 

[Senor Catface]

Maybe Tocchet should call the league up again.

Marner takes offense to this comment

 

[Brookbank]

That’s hockey baby. I think the ledger reading 1-1 accurately reflects the series up to this point.

Oilers were a coin flip away from being down 2.

Vancouver's pressure in the latter half of the first game was better than Edms pressure tonight

 

[SiZ]

Still want to know why Draisaitl got a penalty for getting mugged by all 5 Canucks. JT Miller throwing sucker punches at everybody the entire scrum and he gets nothing.

To even up Hoglander getting called for getting speared in the nuts?

 

[SeanMoneyHands]

If it weren't for the unforgivable goal at that bad angle it would have been a great night for him.

But it was unforgivable. It's more than a goal against. It's extra demoralizing. Luckily the guys persevered but if this becomes a common thing this playoffs the Oilers need to explore their options in the summer. He was bad vs Vegas last year too

Just imagine Skinner against a team like Colorado for 7 games. The Avs would destroy him in net and run him out of town. His confidence would forever be ruined.

 

[Sergei Shirokov]

so how many penalties did McDavid draw?

1 he shouldn't have. He shouldn't just get calls & non-calls in his favour because he's the best player, thats why ppl hate him.

 

[oilers4life5]

Beat the nucks and the refs. Tough to do.

 

[PuckG]

Congrats on your big **** pressure.

Onto game 3 we go!

 

[VainGretzky]

Based on first 2 periods, Vancouver was the better team
Based on 3rd period, Edmonton was the better team.


Myers/Cole essentially lost this one

Based on the score Edmonton was the better team
