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

[PensPlz]

They do have the best player in the world.

Best regular season player in the world

 

[Quinning]

Series is far from over.

But the seed of doubt was planted.

 

[Tobias Kahun]

Congrats Nucks fans.

f*** you Skinner you fraud.

 

[Bankerguy]

if Van had Demko, he woulda saved that one for sure, maybe even the other weakish goal.
Also, Ian Cole cost the team two girls directly. very odd. Van controlled Edm 5on5,
They're better defensively and now Drisaitle is hurt.
Whats the return on my money if i now pick Van in 5. hmmm

 

[Three On Zero]

Edmontons defence is a mess, they made Zadorov and Myers look like competent 1st pairing players

 

[McClelland]

Yea all those PP goals we got really won us the game .

The non calls! 1 to many men fall.
All those slashes.

Over and done, now its next game!

 

[Dust]

Ceci and Nurse were both -3 and an adventure all night. Cole for Vancouver, Ceci for Edmonton are the real gifts to the opposition all night.

 

[Ncit3]

Best regular season player in the world

Best power play only player in the world.

 

[OilersFanatics505]

You think the outcome isn't different if the penalty that should be called is called at that point in the game?

Edmonton <-> Blaming the Refs. Name a more iconic duo.

 

[TimeZone]

There are no excuses for the Oilers to show up looking that awful

 

[S E P H]

They should trade McDavid to us for Rantanen.

McDavid+2nd for a signed Rantanen. Deal.

 

[Nogatco Rd]

McDavid more invisible than mitch marner's playoff beard rn

 

[GrumpyKoala]

Getting the advantage in net is not something that I was ever expecting from this matchup.

Well that bit me where it hurts.

 

[Zirakzigil]

This game was a goaltending fail. Neither one had a good game. Bad thing for Edmonton is that thats their starter vs Vancouvers 3rd stringer. If Demko comes back remotely healthy, look out.

 

[The Merchant]

Refs taking a nap is so predictable

If it's not Refalanche it's Refanucks. Woe is the Oilers fan

 

[WaitingForThatCab]

Edmonton <-> Blaming the Refs. Name a more iconic duo.

Toronto and losing in the first round?

 

[TruKnyte]

 

[Summer Rose]

That was certainly a game.

 

[DiggerDan]

Wow, what a game. Have to expect that McDavid is going to come out on fire in game 2. Goaltending obviously and predictably is going to be a huge factor throughout. The Oilers were flat - this is going to be a long series.

 

[Duodenum]

Canucks woke up and remember they dominated the Oilers during the regular season.

 

[CpatainCanuck]

Edmontons defence is a mess, they made Zadorov and Myers look like competent 1st pairing players

Zadorov has taken his play to another level lately. Its not just Edmonton: Zadorov is actually good

 

[Brookbank]

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

I tried telling my Edm friends this. Skinner is from Edmonton. It is just cruel to throw the whole city on his shoulders. He's a decent 1B goalie. But not a cup contending starter common

 

[jackjohnson]

Drai was injured by Myers

 

[Petey O]

5-0

Are Oilers fans still going to say that the regular season doesn't matter when their team has now lost 5 straight to the Canucks, and blew a 3 goal lead that was handed to them on a silver platter?

Surely the Oilers players are starting to get doubts they can even win one against the Canucks, much less the series. Players don't forget games, whether it's the regular season or not.

 

[Leaf Fans]

Best regular season player in the world

The best player imo.
