WCSF GM01 | Vancouver Canucks vs Edmonton Oilers | Wed. May 8th | 7pm PST | SNP/CBC | In Arturs We Trust

[HockeyWooot]

Canucks are the worst team remaining in the playoffs lol

 

[thegazelle]

As an Oilers fan, I really applaud the Canucks crowd for their passion and energy. It truly is one of the intangible factors in home ice advantage.

 

[Tebowz]

One thing is for certain. Whoever wins between DAL and COL will enjoy playing vs either of these teams.

Demko will be back when we face Colorado

 

[GeoRox89]

I bet 500$ on an Edm sweep

Oh boy

 

[Cup or Bust]

Even if the Oilers win the series, I doubt they go anywhere with Skinner. 4 of the goals he allowed were beyond terrible. Even against LA he let in crap goals.

 

[AwesomeInTheory]

Don't let him lol

If there's literally anything I could do, I would, lol.

 

[jackjohnson]

I knew canucks offense would wake up. When their shots dont get blocked, they will score

 

[DisgruntledHawkFan]

Skinner is baaaaddd.

 

[Ncit3]

How do you try to build a Stanley Cup contender and decide to have Skinner as your goaltender?

I dunno. I think it's more Edmonton's terrible defense. Avs won a cup with Kuemper and lead a series with Georgiev. New look Edmonton defense's new look is still doodoo.

 

[snag]

Yeah and Hughes was boarded and no call, call it even

Fair enough. Butterfly effect. Call the f***ing calls. I have no problem with that.

 

[bringbacktheskate604]

Yes the winning goaltender is an ECHL turd.

Dude you are a habs fan yet you do nothing but shit on other teams in these threads without even speaking anything true.

Silovs is 23, a bronze metal winner in the world's and is a future #1.

Get lost and go dream about the draft.

 

[Chairman Maouth]

This series is going to be a battle. Still think the Oilers are the favourites to win, but it’s not going to be the steamroll that some oilers fan believe it’ll be.

Canucks fan agreeing with you.

 

[I am toxic]

It's a good thing Demko is out.

Otherwise beating Edmonton tonight would be like kicking a puppy.

Anyway, the oil should still win this series if Drai is healthy. Whatever, the 'nucks season is a success, and I suspect the oil roster will be blown up when they get eliminated in the conference final

 

[KOPITARRULEZ11]

LA can learn from Vancouver on how to play solid team D.

All LA had to do was stay aggressive yet management thinks otherwise it's mind boggling look what panthers did to lightning.

 

[Draino]

If we had Demko we would run the table on these frauds. Their d coughs up the puck when pressed, their goalie is a sieve. They only have hope coz we are playing a no experience kid in net

 

[Canucks LB]

There are actually some people here bitching about the officiating, the Canucks dominated for like 95% of the game

 

[nucks88]

Credit to the Canucks, they never stopped skating, Oilers were thinking about their post game meals in the second intermission and went to sleep.

Yeah sure…..

 

[22Brad Park]

This series is going to be a battle. Still think the Oilers are the favourites to win, but it’s not going to be the steamroll that some oilers fan believe it’ll be.

I think Vancouver are the favs stealing this game.They now beat them 5 straight times and 1 game closer to Demko back.Tonite was a real tough blow to Edm.

 

[MikeK]

Hope that was a wake up call to Oilers fans who thought EDM were going to run away with this series. Vancouver is going to give EDM everything they can handle and more. Vancouver is a good team... and remember they are doing this with a 3rd string 23yr old goalie. This isn't going to be as easy as Oilers fans thought.

 

[PromisedLand]

 

[jackjohnson]

Fair enough. Butterfly effect. Call the f***ing calls. I have no problem with that.

Anyways, i hope they dont call much penalties unless its really warranted. Playoffs should have less penalties and keep the game flowing.

 

[Zanon]

5-0

 

[ziploc]

How do you try to build a Stanley Cup contender and decide to have Skinner as your goaltender?

We can relate.

 

[GOilers88]

Gonna be a firewagon series.

You're a fine person.
