WCSF: Game 4 - Edmonton Oilers vs Vancouver Canucks, 7:30pm, ESPN

[KCC]

They were lucky but at least there was no weak goals due to the goalie, that's all the Oilers need is the goalie not to give the game away.

That’s fair. Pikard had no chance on both and let in no muffins.

 

[Peter Griffin]

Is this a snippet of Tocchet's post game speech?

No just completely my own thoughts.

 

[snag]

Draisaitl meant was jumping in his mind when he touched it. And isn't it the crossbar?

Goal yes....merely knocking down the puck, no.

 

[BelovedIsles]

One of the better games of the playoffs. Gotta love Weekes' passion.

Pickard looked avg, but that's all they need. Again, not sure he can hold the fort for several games; he did what he needed to do.

 

[Bizzare]

Draisaitl meant was jumping in his mind when he touched it. And isn't it the crossbar?

Only if it goes directly in….

 

[Sergei Shirokov]

you guys play 20 mins and expect to win every night

Canucks worst game of the playoffs vs the Oilers best came down to 45 seconds lol

 

[TheSuperElite]

Canucks fans acting like this series wouldn't be over already if Skinner wasn't mathematically the worst postseason goalie since 2005.

 

[22Brad Park]

That chick on the panel better start eating she looks frail .

 

[Coffey]

it's wild that this series is tied 2-2 and the Canucks don't have Demko and Pettersson is a no show.

It’s wild that it’s 2-2 and the Oilers starter is Dan Cloutier in disguise and the entire bottom 6 is invisible.

 

[Frank Drebin]

I think it was don cherry who said
The aim for tonight wasn’t to win the game.

The aim is to compete, to minimize the damage on the PK ( the refs will call a ridiculous amount of penalties against the Canucks) and to hammer Drai every chance they get.

Losing the game just means it's a best of 3, great place to be for the underdog.

Winning would have been gravy.

 

[crazychimp]

Not sure why the high stick stuff is about it doesn’t matter. Canucks bodies all over in front of the net they had a chance to block it, didn’t. Series tied. On to the next one fellas.

 

[Cup or Bust]

Pickard is the franchise now

Not sure I am that excited about him but he gave them the goaltending I expected if the Oilers played similar defensely as the other games.

 

[Zanon]

Both nucks goals were fluky bounces.

You’re right. Oilers should forfeit their Game 2 GWG from Ian Cole. Undeserved.

 

[Dieseloil]

Can’t believe we still almost brought it to OT while playing 2 minutes of hockey.

Oilers were definitely the better team so I’m shocked at how quiet the crowd was. Felt like a regular season game

Edmontons best game vs. Vancoucers worst and still only a 1 goal game. Onto game 5

Don’t want to play your best game in the playoffs, instead play like shit.

 

[Brookbank]

Can’t believe people thought it would be a repeat of the regular season lol

Yeah so many Canucks fans thought they'd sweep the Oilers right. Right ?

 

[Sniper99]

Without a 3rd string AHL goalie ? whatever you say champ

And the Canucks still almost won. In their building. In a defacto elimination game for them

Well they didnt so stop crying your makeup is running

 

[Sergei Shirokov]

You had about 3 flukes on Skinner at garbage angles any decent goalie would save and 1 fluke tonight.

We had 1

Cope

 

[Lawzy]

At risk of offending most of this thread, most of y'all are insufferable. That absolutely includes my fellow Canucks fans.

 

[nowhereman]

Both nucks goals were fluky bounces.

Real rich from a team who has scored a bunch of goals banking pucks off Cole. Weak.

 

[Coffey]

On to the next one, not sure why the high stick stuff is about it doesn’t matter. Canucks bodies all over in front of the net they had a chance to block it, didn’t. Series tied. On to the next one fellas.

Well that and it wasn’t a high stick.

[Akrapovince]

Imagine getting that goaltending from Silovs and still losing.

Oilers have to pray for one player on their roster to give them average play to win.

Canucks have to pray one player can play out of his mind again while the other 18 players give them average play.

A lot less has to go right for Edmonton to win.

 

[Bizzare]

lol no high stick.

Finding the puck is like where’s Waldo

 

[McHelpus]

If Cole wasn't playing for Edmonton it could be 4-0 Van

Touche

 

[Coffey]

Yeah so many Canucks fans thought they'd sweep the Oilers right. Right ?

They did on Instagram and Facebook
