    First game of the series. Oilers were poor defensively. Leon scored 4 goals and 4 other players had assists. The PP went 2 for 3. PK only stopped 2 of 4. Biggest base stat differences are hits (Oilers 46 vs VGK 27), Takeaways (Oilers 7, VGK 18) and Blocked Shots (Oilers 10, VGK 23). Huge differences on Takeaways and Blocked Shots are big indicators to me statistically of the results of this game. Too many missed assignments, too many men left alone out front, gaps weren't kept, it wasn't pretty and it wasn't all Skinner's fault (in fact most of it wasn't Skinner's fault, he wasn't lights out but he wasn't bad either). Connor isn't playing the way Connor can. Lateral movement and blowing by guys doesn't happen nearly as much if at all. He's still good and still plays (I mean he had two primary assists tonight) but he's not playing the way we all know he can. Janmark had to go off in his first game back after being boarded. No Ryan this game and, in my opinion, he was missed. Many players were "invisible" until they weren't and they weren't mostly in a bad way. Take care all.

  2. The Vegas Knights are a good team. Remember they destroyed Canada’s best NHL team Jets in 5 games. This team is capable of playing any game you want. Did you see Jack Eichel steal the puck of McDavid then score the empty netter. Unless the Oilers receive better goaltending the team ain’t getting past Vegas.

  3. Goaltending will sink the Oilers. From a Wings fan with no investment in any of the remaining teams. Vegas vs Canes/Panthers in the final. I feel that EC final between the Canes and Panthers will be a classic. Oilers and Leafs not quite there yet in terms of being primed for playoff hockey, I expect them both to at least reach a final in the next 2-3 years tho. I also think Seattle and Dallas will fall slightly short altho Dallas is probably the most playoff ready of the two

  4. Oilers played their worst game of the playoffs so far. (Except for #29.) Vegas only got away with a one goal lead and an empty netter. I expect a much better effort from the oil in game 2.
