Who Wins Game 7? - Edmonton or Vancouver

[Starbuds]

Oilers fan living in Vancouver here. I just paid $733 for a lower bowl ticket here. Fingers crossed for an Oilers win and a night that doesn't end with me being punched out.

Voted Vancouver, but I want Edmonton to win mostly so a select group of idiots will stop complaining about how McDavid and Draisaitl aren't playoff performers and the win will get them one step closer to shutting them up forever.

It’s not so much that I’m worried about goaltending but even skinner can deal with 15 shots. They gotta get some momentum going and figure out whatever demon needs exorcising from the PP.

Skinner was given the biggest free pass ever. He didn’t even face one high danger chance. Oilers still would have won with a stuffed animal in net. If Canucks lose game 7, they will look back on not showing up for Game 6.

I’ll take the team that has the goalie who helped get Latvia a bronze medal vs one of the worst NHL goalies of all time.

I’ll take the team with the best player in the world, the best playoff performer in recent history and the one with the leading scoring in these playoffs (at even strength and overall) and last year (overall).

Personally I could not deal with the stress of that much on a ticket for a deciding game. No judgement, enjoy what you like just my anxiety would be so bad the whole time.

Edmonton wins but idk both goalies are blackholes who knows what can happen.

What I can tell is that Dallas with Oettinger with a spread offense will be really hard for any of them to beat Dallas

Neither Vancouver or Edmonton will stand a chance to Dallas. Dallas took out the defending cup champs and then the #1 offensive team in the NHL. Facing Edmonton or Vancouver won’t even break a sweat for them. Dallas most valuable forward so far in this playoffs plays on their 3rd line. Vancouver or Edmonton cant match that.

Hard to argue with that. Bieksa criticized the Canucks along similar lines. That said, this series has been a counter-punch series. Game 7 should be close either way.

 

[Steven Toast]

As a biased Edmonton fan, this Nucks team has gained my respect. Whoever wins I think can give they Stars a good run for the Western Conference Champs. But,

Oil in 7 obviously.

Vancouver wins with 9 shots on net.

I heard Y2K was back in style I just didn’t know it included dead puck style winning

Leafs fans at it again?

 

[CanadienShark]

Leafs fans at it again?

Mostly them, yeah. Some Flames fans (if they exist still). And some Oilers haters. Just a very, very vocal and obnoxious (and blind) minority.

 

[Szechwan]

Vancouver. But whoever wins will get demolished by Dallas in Round 3. I don’t think either team stands a chance against Dallas.

Heard the exact same thing the entire Nashville series. You never know how teams will match up until they play them.

 

[Panthers Propaganda]

I haven’t a fkn clue.

Feels like a literal coin toss.

For real parity is high, it’s part of the salary cap existence.

Canucks were already shook, scared to death, and scared to look after winning Game 5. I suspect they’re currently hurling themselves into the mass grave they were too busy digging instead of showing up for Game 6. Oilers will desecrate them on Monday.

 

[hotcabbagesoup]

Vancouver winning G7 would be so disappointing to me. It's just not what I want.

I low key love this just like everyone else is justifying their reasons and you’re like “no I don’t want it”

 

[wetcoast]

Vancouver has shown the ability to bounce back from devastating losses this season. It’ll be interesting to see how they play on Monday with last change and home ice advantage. Neither team has been able to string together two wins

As a Canucks fan I hope it's them but man it's hard to keep Drai and McDavid down.

The select idiots claims fall flat though 3 consecutive years averaging well over 20 points just happens so rarely.

People can harp on AM and it's overblown IMO but what more do those idiots expect from 2 freaking players?

McDavid and Sri are simply dominating to an extent that people don't realize.

If Skinner was even average this second round, EDM would have swept this series. Goes to show you just how important goaltending is. Happened last year against Vegas as well. He was pulled 3x and they still took them to 6 games. If EDM could just get some stable enough goaltending that would be huge.

 

[jackjohnson]

I don't trust either of these teams to win two straight in this series, so I'm going with Vancouver. Despite the fact that they can't seem to actually shoot the puck.

They shoot the puck well at home. Had 30 shots in game 5 in Vancouver. I just dont get why the lack energy or juice on the road. Also we dont get last change.

 

[Duder54]

I'm going to go out on a limb and predict that the team which scores more goals than the other will come away with the victory.

Whatever the result, HF is going to be a toxic wasteland for days afterwards.

 

[jackjohnson]

The good guys win. Oilers in 7.

How are they the good guys? A team with Kane, Perry and Nurse and McDavid dives

Anyone who doesn't think McDavid and Draisaitl are playoff performers either doesn't watch hockey or is a troll. Full stop.
