The fourth goal was on Myers. Don Cherry said so.

Maybe but Demko would still save that

Don Cherry would blame Evander Kane.

Bigger font, that’s gets them every time

I prefer underlines and italics, but that's worth consideration too.

 

[Artemi Panarin]

Skinner's post game interviews are hilarious. This guy is completely unbothered.

 

[jackjohnson]

If goalies keep playing like that, Avs might put up 10 on whichever team advances next round... per game.

Am more scared of that Avs offense and Canucks still havent solved them yet.

 

[Dust]

It is also kind of funny how quickly everyone's tune changed with regards to Silov. He went from a Conn Smythe hopeful to "just a 3rd string goalie" real quick.

 

[Turin]

If Van stays out of the box this is a probably a quick series. But they have Ian Cole so

 

[SeanMoneyHands]

The Lindholm, Joshua and Garland line is the X Factor here

This line was amazing tonight. Oilers had no answer for this line.

 

[Pure West]

I mean, you gotta admit it's pretty funny. Nobody giving the Canucks any credit outside Vancouver, least of all from Edmonton. Apparently we're just a fraud that can't get shots on net and rode a PDO wave to our position in the standings. What happened?

Canucks thoroughly outplayed the Oilers particularly in periods 2 and 3. The Edmonton PDO kings got a couple of lucky goals on an AHL goalie in the 2nd but were otherwise non-existent. They barely could muster a chance in the 3rd, even when down a goal. Their goaltending wasnt great, but our AHL goalie also played like an AHL goalie.

So have a little humble pie tonight Oilers fans. Start sweating, because you have lots of reasons to.

 

[Captain Controversy]

Oilers didn't have enough shots on a fragile goalie. Oilers didn't have enough calls go their way. Skinner let in too many goals.

Try again on friday but maybe without taking their foot off the pedal.

 

[Bankerguy]

Nashville was in a way a tougher opponent. Edm doenst play D .. Nash also had saros. Edm has more firepower but team-style wise those preds always felt like they were gona sneak a win

Lucky bounce, high PDO, unfortunate...words by Skinner lol same words that some Oilers fans use when they lose

 

[Artemi Panarin]

Not jinx betting, I see literally zero universes where Vancouver can stop Edm offense. My bet looks excellent so far.

It is my last 500$ so if I lose my kids won't eat for a few weeks.

Yeah, that bet is looking incredible.

 

[Canucks LB]

I just can’t get over how good JT Miller was

 

[Ncit3]

I'm jealous that the Canucks get to play Edmonton.

 

[BWJM]

We can relate.

My Dad told me years ago, that back in the Cloutier playoff days he posted on some Canucks forum.. "He couldn't stop a beach ball with a snow shovel" and said it was his last day on forums because of the hate mail.

He must've been soft.

 

[RandV]

That was some horrendous goaltending from both sides. RNH choked with Silovs not even looking. A missed call soon after and then Skinner went full Red Light Racicot and it was over.

Difference is after Silovs blew that 4th goal badly Canucks battled harder in front him. He's the 23 year old 3rd string rookie with only a handful of NHL game so you kind of expect that, but after it's just great composure all around. In a normal situation that's when the coach switches goalies.

 

[Brookbank]

I would be very tempted. Silovs has gotten a lot of post luck and guys missing wide open out front. deSmith won the division title game.

Id go with Desmith. But Tocchet has already decided on Silovs.

 

[Chinaski89]

Blackwood is probably worse than Skinner and has 0 playoff experience.

Blackwood played like a boss behind the worst defense in the league.

Imagine getting fewer than 20 shots in a playoff game lmao

wasn’t that basically both Nashville and Vancouver all last series?

I told everyone the same thing but the experts were so hyped by Oilers offense and McBaby

 

[Petey O]

Edmonton team board is unhinged right now.

I love seeing people who blatantly disrespected the Canucks, whether Oilers fans or not, get humbled a little bit.

What other teams can hold the Oilers to such a low amount of shots, thoroughly outplay them for 90% of the game, and, despite giving them a free three goal lead, still be able to come back and win in regulation?

 

[LickTheEnvelope]

Well that was wild. Complete opposite of playing Nashville.

 

[Lafleurs Guy]

[Czechboy]

Oh boy... that was a muffin. Not a good look at all.

I wish the Nucks all the best in scoring the next 4 goals to win.

Man did this age awfully lol
