I think this could be the best series of Round 2

 

[Senor Catface]

I just hope everyone has fun! That's all that matters!

 

[De Montreal]

Any info on the schedule? Round 2 looking absolutely epic.

Curious too

I hope for at least one 7 PM start

 

[LTIR]

That’s a big burn

why? Is there an issue with living with an obese wife?

 

[Tobias Kahun]

I’m not making excuses bro, I’m just stating the obvious lol.

During the regular season the Canucks had a +11 powerplay differential, Oilers had a -22.

 

[Slapshot_11]

Dounghty's Marchand like penalty immunity seems to have worn off with refs. That and the fact they didn't fall for the dives.

If the refs don't fall for nuck dives this won't be a close series.

Talking about diving when you have McDavid on your team?

Ironic

 

[ziploc]

Oilers are way better than what they showed the Canucks in the head to head matchups during the season. Should be a battle. I'd have a lot more confidence with Demko back there, as great as Silovs has been.

Game 1 on Tuesday

What did JT say?

 

[Brock Boeser Laser Show]

Silovs is an unknown. He did well, against Nashville's offense. He's about to enter a trial by fire. Oilers have more gifted players and will force the Nucks into taking penalties. After Silovs gets his net filled on the PK a few times we'll see how his confidence holds up

We will see how Skinners confidence holds up if the Canucks PP lights him up again.

 

[Bobby9]

Everybody loses if we get Hanaryan Singh.

 

[AM]

Oilers are gonna make it rain (more) in Vancouver

Blue Monday will come early this year.

 

[Bizzare]

What did JT say?

“Even if I just heard We play in 2 days” or something along those lines

 

[VanCanucks53]

No one expected us to be here. Now we won a round with our 3rd string goalie in net. Anything that happens from here is gravy.
Oilers are going to be the heavy favourite to win this and they should be with that core they have been gifted over the years and the fact they haven’t won yet. Canucks core is just getting started and I don’t expect them to win the cup this year.

So I hope for a competitive series and I would love an upset but regardless it’s been a good season for the Canucks.

 

[iFan]

Oiler players wanted the Canucks in the second round... Preds wanted the Canucks for the first around and we beat them with our AHL goalie... careful what you wish for

 

[onetweasy]

Comical after all the Oilers had to look forward to for a decade was winning draft lotteries.

All the winning that the Flames and Canucks did during that decade was incredible as well.

Just stacked up championships and playoff series wins.

 

[vanarchy]

How I expect the threads for this series to go:

Best of luck to the mods

 

[BackToTheBrierePatch]

Oilers in 6. Right now Edmonton’s best players look engaged and are playing at a high level. Haven’t seen much of that from Vancouver’s best. Scoring 1 or 2 goals a game isn’t going to get it done against Edmonton or

 

[LTIR]

Talking about diving when you have McDavid on your team?

Ironic

Meh, shows how people see a game when they have Homer glasses on. Nothing I can say would change your mind so let's go with McDavid
flops on purpose theory. And I will stick Fiala embellishments that refs had enough of. Petterson is a big flopper as well.

Find a quote of an Oilers player hoping for the Canucks.

 

[soothsayer]

They dont need to match their offense, they will shut it down lol

Hilarious. You just watched that series with Nashville and don't realize that the Canucks are about to face an offensive team from a different universe. Keep hanging onto those regular season wins lol.

 

[LTIR]

Singh and more late starts. Grossness alert

 

[Bizzare]

Just like the Oilers since the lottery wins? “Yah you sucked more!!” Great conversation this.

You're a stat checker who doesn't watch the games. If it wasn't for Saros Vancouver wins this in 4, 5 at most. They dominated all but 2 periods the entire series.

 

[Mr Positive]

We will see how Skinners confidence holds up if the Canucks PP lights him up again.

The Oilers special teams have found another gear, and so has Skinner. He has a shutout too

Most of all, the Oilers D system is miles better than last year
