How do you feel about Arturs Silovs in this series? How do you feel about Stuart Skinner in this series? How concerning is the Oilers lack of scoring 5-on-5? How impressed are you with Elias Lindholm’s play? TSN Director of Scouting Craig Button joins Jay Onrait to share his thoughts.

Leafs of the west here we go again
Oilers are cooked.
Where are all the "oilers in 5" people at now??😂😂😂
No one should be surprised. Their schtick has always been riding McDrai and hanging on for dear life.
Two generational future hall of famers does not make a championship lineup.
ddnt this moron pick oilers in 5?
Button looks pissed his pick is getting out goalied, zero depth and out coached. Canucks fans knew they had the edge here. This isn't surprising
Principle Chalmers be like "SKIIIINNNNNER!!!"
I cant see either of these teams beating the winner of DAL/COL
skinner is horrible for the oilers since the playoffs started but mcdavid was nothing burger in this game and canucks did not have a difficult time in handling him 🤣🤣
maybe its not "lack of depth scoring". maybe its the canucks playing excellent 5v5
97 had almost 30min TOI and still didn’t score 😂 can’t rely on him, Hymen or Drai when you’re triple shifting them …
They keep playing their 1st line for half the game fatigue will set in eventually. You could also say skinner being played every game is wearing him out.
No way this canuck team loses 3 of the next 4. Two (if it goes seven) are in Vancouver.
Canucks are getting in Edmonton's head.
They're winning with their (supposed) top two goalies out. Demko due back almost any time.
Oilers are all but toast.
What happened to the sweep 23 outta 24 tsn and sportsnet analysts predicted, saying an easy series win for the soilers
Oilers are just the Leafs but instead their stars show up sometimes. Stars carry them, no defense, no goalie.
button wants cry
More you put the kid in more confidence
Craig Button once again has his head in his Fukn ass
Buttons is the the cnn reporter of tsn very biased angry lil man
Lack of scoring by anyone other then McDavid and draistl
Craig button….the canadian darren pang….biggest joke in the NHL reporter circle..
Yes
Craig Button is an icon. I'm quietly delighted that he's a media consultant because I adore his intelligence and knowledge? Also he's easy on my old horse eyes. GO CANUCKS GO! 🤟🦄✨♥️
Button is livid. LOL. No shit, top heavy with goalie vs. balanced with team defense. You should've bet on the latter.
The better team is winning…. they are now 6-1 vs edmonton this season.
Bottom line the Oilers are lacking, even if they win this series, no way chance are they a Stanley Cup championship team.
i kept telling myself to not watch the game, so i succumbed to just watching an iphone app score board watching
when oils scored a goal with 2 minutes left, each remaining second felt like eternity to me. whoa we won! so happy!!!
Skinner should make a coupe of saves but fuck do the oilers leave him out to dry all time I’m looking at blocked shots, hits, faceoffs the canucks always finish their checks
I was so excited when Canucks got Lindholm, glad it’s starting to show!
Button looks flabbergasted at the success of the nux thus far
Oilers have always been nothing but powerplay merchants and a 2 player team. They have no depth. They have no goaltending. The Canucks would sweep these clowns if Demko was healthy.
cope harder Button.. he looks like he wants to cry
Hey Button! Cry moreeee
The Van Goalie has brutally outplayed Skinner. Oilers 1 line is enough to win with even half decent goaltending vs Van, but they aren't getting even that from Skinner.
I dont think o ly being able to score with the man advantage is no recipe for success
Here i am in Ontario waking up my neighbors at 1230 am again go nucks
Lol who is this button clown?
Canucks would be 3-0 with Demko healthy
Form out of the window? Silovs no form? How much did he lose?
