In today’s video I discuss the Edmonton Oilers and Los Angeles Kings first-round matchup as the two teams meet for the THIRD straight season in the first round! The #oilers won in game 7 in 2022 and then knocked off the #kings in game 6 in 2023, but LA is looking to prove that they have taken that next step and will be an extremely tough opponent for Edmonton to deal with. Connor McDavid is rested and looking to lead his team to it’s first Stanley Cup Finals appearance since 2006… It’s finally time for the playoffs to start. LFG.

lets go boys!
I want to say Oilers in 5 based on the pattern (7 in 2022, 6 in 2023) but the Kings are too good for this to be 5 game series. I’ll say Oilers in 6/7.
Oilers in 6. But it's gonna be close. The Oilers are definitely better offensively but also easier to play against. I think the Kings will keep it close but with the Oilers being just so much better offensively and in net. I dont think the defense will hold fo LA
If the oilers can beat the 1-3-1 system oilers will take it in 6 and brown, henriqe and skinner will shine
Oil in 5
KINGS fan: surprised with the respect for thinking the Kings win at least 2 games. I personally think the Oilers win in 4 or 5. I hate the 1–3-1 too
So far my bracket is holding up
Let's go oilers let's go we can do it boys. 🏒🏒🏒🏒🏒
Off topic sorta, – Look at what Vegas did, Stone and Pieterangelo are back at practice. LTIR magic. BS. Tampa 2.0. This needs to be FIXED. Also, Oil in 5. 6 at most by getting beat by themselves but I think theyve learned.
Drai with 14 points in a 5 games win….. And with a tough fight against Doughty
I guess oilers in 4. Not to sound cocky I just don’t think cam talbot has the answer.
Go ISLANDERS Go!
