  1. Imagine if these Oilers can come back and beat those Panthers, it might be the biggest comeback story in the history of NHL? 😮 : )

  2. The Draisaitl 'incident (after slowing the clip down & zooming in at different angles)' clearly shows that Leon's arms are parallel and stationary to his own body w/ 'no deliberate' upward swing w/ his right elbow/ arm ingeneral (both arms stay practically and mirror-imaged together w/o any upward swing motion before & at immediate contact.

    After (obviously) hit, naturally L.D. moves both arms outwards so that his stick moves up and away from head/ body.

    Barkov, had the puck facing against the boards w/ Leon coming in from his right-backside and as Barkov just happened to turn towards Draisaitl, then the play clearly shows Drais' arms 'held in close to his own body' w/ no swinging upward motion(s).

    In other words, the 'elbow' was not deliberate/ on purpose.

    This is just two games in and practically, that's how FLA plays (as they didn't really change anything from prev. game except for 'hounding' offensive McD and offensive-defensive Bouchy, inorder to create gaps during wear and tear breakdowns.

    That, practically is what they needed to slow us down.

  3. I dont even know what you do at this point. Only that connor nuge hyman line has any real threat in scoring. Florida suppressing shots and clogging up all the grade A chances. None of the oiler wingers have any sort of killer instinct and finishing touches in this series. Down 2-0 against this team i think its over. Maurice just has his numbers on us just like the 4-0 sweep when he coached the Jets

  4. Желаю победы Флориде…..она сильнее Ойлерс в этом плей-офф….одними ударами по лицу Баркова вы не выиграете матчи….позор Драйзаталю….за это мазуту нужно просто задушить в следующих матчах…..БОГ в помощь Пантерс-Памперс!!!

  5. The fact that all this guy can do is whine about the refs after the trash performance his team put up, says it all. He's not even remotely prepared to coach at this level in the playoffs. Cats took on Vasilevsky, Swayman and Shesterkin to get here. Y'all had Cam Talbot, a "who the heck is this guy" Shilov, and a worn out Otter. Welcome to the Bobrovski show, you get to watch for two more games, then stay in Canada and cry all off season. Bums, all of you. Playing dirty like manure and still get thrashed 4-1. Classless jokes.

  6. Liked the look of Rico in the top line earlier in the season, maybe switch him and Nuge to aid Drai

  7. Pathetic Oilers: Draisaitl who lost ALL important face-offs 😝and 2 min penalty, Bouchard who had terrible game with 2 critical give away and 4 mi penalties😜, mediocre Skinner ( SV% = .88)😝and the rest of this pathetic Co.🤑 Florida is clearly much better team.😇

  8. LOL classic EDM, when they're winning from garbage calls, no complaints with the officiating. Soon as they start to lose, the coach, the players, the media blame the refs, lol. For 3 rounds EDM was gift wrapped bogus penalties. They have no leg to stand on to mention anything about bad officiating. Without bad officiating they're not even in the cup finals.

  9. Sit Evander Kane..a mercurial guy who has plenty of postseason experience seems less attentive shift to shift. A minus three tonight.

    Let’s try Sam Gagner. Available? Yes older. But willing . ✅

  10. The Oilers still rely way too much on Leon and McDavid, need to build a deeper roster than what they have ,most of it has to do with the fourth and third line as well as the second line in particular

  11. The Panther's wore the Oilers down mentally by baiting and confusing them the whole game. Oilers fell straight into their trap and became frustrated, aggressive and desperate. It was a mess to watch as an Oilers fan.

  12. Skinny is the least of the Oilers problems. 19 players are sitting and watching and the other guy, Mick David is just being shut down. 1 goal in 2 games and you blame the goalie? Also, the goonery of Drai, Kane and Fogele is what ruined game 2.
