Doesn't really make sense to highstick someone intentionally in a tie game, but maybe Soucy said mean things to him.

Soucy was the one who got suspended for crosschecking McD in the face so a little bit more than mean things, maybe that's just McJesus taking a #

(Which I can atleast respect)

But if that's just a misplay on the puck.. yikes. Even the Chaos Giraffe has better coordination

Well whoever ends up in net for either team will be playing their first game 7 of their careers. I'm not really sure who has the advantage going into game 7. Vancouver is at home, and the barn has been rocking these playoffs. Edmonton has the edge in experience, though that really hasn't translated at all these playoffs so far.

You won't know whether it has translated until the oilers win in game 7. Lose, means experience not translated. Win, translated.
 
Respect to the Oilers, they played their best game. Dominated the whole game, got good goaltending. Game 7 will be a very interesting game, which team will show up with their best game. Hoping it's Vancouver, they better get it together.

Time and time again we've seen these playoffs you need to at least match intesity of the team playing not to be eliminated or the series is going to get extended. Happened so many times. We'll see if Canucks can find their desperation mode for game 7 .

So the PP merchant Oilers go out and score 5 at evens to tie Colorado for the league lead in 5 on 5 production, even as their 3rd and 4th lines continue to put up absolute donuts?

Shout outs to Ryan McLeod for the 2 primary errors on the only goal against in a 5-1 win. 0 goals 0 assists -3 in 11 games.

Is Craig Simpson okay these days?

(5 Oilers take the ice for the PP):
Craig: 'A quartet of Oilers...'

(Later, talking about something...)
Craig: 'As worse as it's been.'

Evander Kane's goal was scored through a 'myriad of legs', which I guess is technically correct but kind of weird, too.

Edmonton allowed 15 shots tonight. When you do this it massively takes the pressure off of weak goaltending. They haven't put together two really good games in a row yet so we will see if they can.

I think we've absolutely put together 3 straight solid games from game two to game four.

Skinner shit the bed pretty f***ing hard in Game 3 though.

I'm convinced now he said something mean like "the orange makes you look fat". And that's how a rivalry was born.

I was all set to call the oilers a one line team. Hyman who is 5th in team pts has 12. They have 5 guys in double digits. We have guys with 12 pts each and that is the only 2 guys in double digits. We have 11players who have scored and they have 13.

Glad it's going 7 games, as every great rivalry series deserves to. Flip a coin on who wins this one. Best series of the playoffs

Luongo imploding in the finals was why the Canucks lost.

8,4,5,4 goals against in his losses that series.

Ain't no depth that's gonna score you 5 or 6 goals in the playoffs


He's generally pretty plugged in

You are partially correct.

The Canucks lost because Vigneault kept Luongo in net for all 8 goals in game 1, which shattered his confidence. As a goaltender myself, I knew that was the death knell right there.

Credit to the Oilers for a solid performance tonight.

Oilers have definitely been the better team overall in this series but game 7 is a toss-up. I imagine it comes down to which team's star players come up big, and given how things have gone so far, the clear edge goes to Edmonton here.

Win or lose Vancouver came a long ways since last year. I am sure they have earned a lot of respect around they league.

I don't come on here much during the playoffs. I would be banned if I did. I hate when fans talk crap. I do laugh at HF favourite saying, book it like they know something. The better team doesn't always win in the playoffs. There things that can't be measured or backed up by stats. Like heart. Vancouver has showed a ton of heart in the playoffs.

Congrats to Vancouver fans on their team rise.

Playoffs are taking a toll on both teams, especially on D. Ekholm down to 15 minutes last night. Myers, Soucy, Cole, Hronek all laboring at points.
 
Series has been great back & forth, with plenty of drama and extra's to boot. Kudos Oilers & Canucks, kudos...... Both teams have stepped up, had timely secondary contributions, goalie ups & downs, and star players rising up when needed. More than not, these are qualities Championship teams have going for them. But.......... in a game 7 anything can happen! That's the nature of Hockey: it's hard to call which way those bounces will go even if one plays well.

Good luck to both fan-bases, and this hockey fan is thankful for decent fight. Hopefully flat-cap rising helps with overall depth in NHL next few years So we fans can enjoy more evenly played 6 game and 7 game playoff series again.

EDIT: OH yeah, both fan-bases remember to sometimes unclinch those but-cheeks during game 7, or one might blow-up. Both fan-bases, enjoy the ride.... :)

Ekholm’s been battling an illness the last couple of games. He wouldn’t let Foegele come anywhere near him for the player of the game award a couple nights ago. He’s a warrior though, he pushes through things like that.
