Skinner isn't winning a Cup. JMHO but I'd be willing to wager any amount on that prognatication.

Great win by EDM. G7 anything can happen. But I trust Skinner as much as Freddie A, Campbell and Samsonov.

I don’t really think any sane or sober oilers fan would try to tell you that Stuart Skinner is a cup calibre goalie.

Calder cup, yeah probably.

Game looked like it was gonna be like most game where Oilers can’t hold on to momentum after scoring and let game slip away. They didn’t know. If they adjusted then Van might be in trouble

Skinner wasn’t really tested but it’s still massive confidence booster for him which has looked shot since that game 1 meltdown.

Chris Osgood won a cup when he was letting in bad goals from center ice lol
It’s been proven you can win by masking your goalies faults by boosting up another ways to win. Not saying it’s a good way to win but it’s been proven a lot you don’t need an elite goaltender to win. Skinner just has to stop letting in bad goals and they have a chance.

I feel like both teams have been very Jekyl and Hyde.

Hard to predict who is gonna show up for game 7

I tend to agree since he won enough in the regular season, but the Wings were also a much better team relative to the league than the Oilers. LA and Van haven’t really tested Skinner enough. Will be interesting if the Oilers move on if Dallas actually sends decent rubber at him.

Knob seemed to change up how the Oilers were forechecking in the second and they completely killed the Canucks breakouts. Will be interesting if we see further adjustments from Vancouver because this one wasn’t pretty

I'm going to laugh if the winner just unexpectedly sweeps Dallas. Since all we've heard about from anyone since this series started was how much they were going to get destroyed.

Mostly tongue in cheek. I do think Dallas has looked better than both these teams but certainly not to the extent posters are claiming. It'll be a good battle either way.

Was better. Since his eye injury Kuemper has looked mostly terrible and lost his starting job in Washington to journeyman Charlie Lindgren

Yeah poor Kuemper. He was awesome for the Avalanche as well but man, that type of injury just ruins careers. You know it absolutely sucks that Okposo had a similar injury and he's never been the same.
