Surprised Jay is putting Skinner back in tonight. Was sure he'd put Campbell in for a whole bunch of reasons. I guess Jay has no issues with hanging a series loss on Skinner. Skinner's going to have to do something that he hasn't done yet in his first NHL playoff run….steal a game. I'll have to disagree with Jay's decision on this one. You don't have to look far and wide to see that Jack Campbell has been on fire the few times he's been the sacrificial replacement netminder. Best of luck to Skinner and the boys in game 6.. Go oilers!
I hope I’m wrong but I would give the net to Campbell but they really must not trust him at all so I’m glad I’m just a fan but if they get eliminated tonight that decision will be criticized all summer long.
You cost us these games by keeping Kostin on a leash and your "reset after every game" gameplan. And, for some bizarre reason, you changed the tactics from physical to soft to appease the Golden Girls. Why on earth would you do that???
"Short memory" is NOT what we need, we need to remember exactly what got us to this point and carry it through for the next 120 minutes…. If the boys don't come out physical, there won't be anything beyond this 60.
Jays tries to be secretive and vague with his answers… Just be honest like Bruce Cassidy. I like him so much better than Woodcroft and I’m an oilers fan- It’s not like not sharing news with the media gives the oilers any real advantage.
Jack Campbell should start , in all Vegas games they figured out skinners weakness is the glove side high, Campbell has no such weakness which throws off Vegas shooters.
Connor and Leon might not stick around much longer if we don’t win and Woodcroft is willing to gamble on a struggling goalie again like he did last year with Smith. He’s so stubborn, we’re not going to win a cup with this guy as head coach.
Need new coach and less ahl players aka the goalie? Wtf we paid good money for Campbell and not give him a chance. Pure ignorance of a ignorant coach. Not aware campell was also a reason why they got here. Fire his ass
so many people before this game saw the problem with Skinner, the headcoach did not..my feeling is that this loss was more on him than on the team..he had so many goid pieces to play with, but couldnt come up with anything..Oilers might never be as good in the coming years as they were this season.

Jay "I don't goto hindsight at all" Woodcroft"
We've had faith in skinner all year, let's not forget that. Go stu go
Let’s go oil! We got this!
17 glove side goals outta skinner, really stepping up to the occasion
Good luck catching the Seattle Kraken.
Kraknights game 6
let's get loud boys let's send them off proper for next game
Jay put on the Pads, Oilers need a Goaltender, you pull your number 1 , 3 times these Play-offs, you wont win with Skinner
Surely we wont lose a series elimination game on home ice right … 🤞
Oilers 6-2

PLAY JACK!!! not just when everyone knows it's too late.

Unfortunately loss in coming with Skinner starting he has shown he crumbles in high pressure situations .. great future but not ready yet !!
No Klim = No Win
Sp exciting
Let's go boys !!!!!
Lets Go Oilers
Good coach…good team. Go oilers. We’ve got this win tonight
Let’s go oilers! Coming from the rock Newfoundland let’s go by’s let’s get er done!!
You should have started soup. Unless skinner does good
Why not Campbell?
Concentrate on your defensive play and you'll be fine
Let’s go team!

Last year he did not give the backup Goalie a chance in the playoffs. Not sure why he does not use his experience. Aka rich back up goalie soup
Can’t win 5 on 5. It’s over
Why is Klim not getting minutes?
Jay "We'll see who comes out of the gate" Woodcroft
Jack Campbell should start , in all Vegas games they figured out skinners weakness is the glove side high, Campbell has no such weakness which throws off Vegas shooters.
Skinner better have a short leash.
Go Oilers get er done finish Vegas
Edmonton Oilers win tonight 🏆 🧢
La Bamba baby

I sure hope you're not behind the bench next season. You were so badly out-coached it's not even funny.
They are done .. unless they play better in 3rd period..
Rookie coach using a rookie goalie. Not sure why

Why not give Campbell a chance
