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

[BeLeafing]

I'll buy a year hf sub to whoever points me to the original post of

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.

I was just speaking from the heart

Jesus christ.

Whats up with Sportsnet? They got money on the line?

When Vancouver wins two games they are sad with no emotion. Edmonton wins and are happy as a clam.

Right now, they are recapping highlights of the game and Ivanka is so happy Oilers won.

Literally everyone hates the Canucks. They are all catty and salty

 

[Sergei Shirokov]

With Soucy we would win this. Juulsen made a huge brain fart

No doubt, Oilers lucky he was out

Was it honestly yuo?

 

[Sniper99]

you guys play 20 mins and expect to win every night

Hes still living in the regular season. Nothing to see here

 

[Czechboy]

You guys keep arguing back and forth about missing goalies, bad goalie performances, flukes, etc. but this series being 2-2 is exactly where it should be after 250 mins of play.

THIS

It's even
It was always going to be even

 

[POVERTY]

Bouchard with 8 goals and 32 pts over his last 21 playoff games that seems pretty good

 

[trilobyte]

I miss it when hockey fans would just meet in the parking lot and fight instead of on the internet claiming victim and playing the what if game

It still happens, just not at NHL rinks/parking lots

Love Ivanka, she root for the good guy's
You should try it sometimes

 

[Dust]

No doubt, Oilers lucky he was out

Soucy made the same bad play for a big hit that led to a goal against in game 2. I thought it was quite fitting actually.

 

[Senor Catface]

The Oilers would be down 3/1 if Saucy wasn't suspended lol. But anyway, keep up the arrogance. It has worked so well for the Oilers

 

[CantHaveTkachev]

And the Oilers got 13 against the Kings

once
that's the Nucks gameplan LMAO

Not if this organization figured out skinner sucks in the playoffs earlier.

Luke Gazdic is the most biased analyst I’ve seen in a while. At least Bieksa can discuss both sides but Gazdic favours the Oilers with every opinion, it’s ridiculous

 

[jackjohnson]

I blame Hronek for being such a pu$$y and not getting the puck off the boards quick enough. He just lets kane hit him and lose the puck

 

[Czechboy]

All he does is stand there. It's all McD. He's being carried like luggage.

It's hard this type shit.. it's even harder to read it everyday.lol

Are you serious? I thought Craig Simpson was going to orgasm on live TV when Van tied it

It's in his job description,

 

[nerevarine]

Wonder if we will get three on zero showing up to tell us bouchard is barely a 6th defenseman

 

[SeanMoneyHands]

The only reason the Oilers won the game is because Saucy was suspended. But we prefer to be the underdog so keep wanking the Oilers.

If Juulsen didn’t go for the big hit and leave a 2 on 1, Vancouver would have won this.

 

[Tryamkin]

It's in his job description,

To slurp off his former team is in his job description?

 

[snag]

Oilers are an awful team. Would have been a sweep with Demko

And the Canucks would been swept if our goalies were swapped. Right?
But that's the way things go. There is no point in coulda woulda shouldas when it didn't wasn't and won't

Considering it is tied and Shilovs is playing like a starter.....what does that say of the Canucks?

Oh that's right...unlucky

 

[trilobyte]

Prior to puck drop of this series, in the media (radio and print) all I heard was how the Oilers were going to roll over the Canucks.
Not saying that there weren't other views but that is what I heard and I thought it was a bit presumptious.
I thought it would be fairly even, and it has turned out exactly that way so far.

 

[Ezekial]

Nucks fans whining about the refs, what's new?

If you aren't finding something miniscule to dissect and deflect from your team not playing hockey for 55 mins are you really a fan?

Only Garland and Silovs showed up for the full game

 

[Sergei Shirokov]

Soucy made the same bad play for a big hit that led to a goal against in game 2. I thought it was quite fitting actually.

That's true. But him being out also meant more minutes for Cole. So it's a double whammy.

He's also one of the more calm D at moving the puck under the Oilers attack
