  1. Oilers will step up and rise to this occasion. Oilers have many uys who can score.
    Time To Get FIRED UP!!

    This is Oil Country!!!

  2. Dallas is a scary team. They took out the cap abusing Vegas then Colorado who I thought was the stronger version of Edmonton. I hope Oilers can at least get to game 7.

  3. Besides the players already performing at a high level, Oilers can only advance if all forwards (McLeod and Foegele in particular) learn from Hyman and go to the blue paint, as Nuge has started to, and if all d-men learn from Ekholm and play smart both ways. And Skinner and Pickard have to keep sv% at least .910. And, knock on wood, of course they have to stay healthy, and avoid drugs and blood clots.

  4. Tony you overdid the voice modulation a bit in the opening, which is a bit annoying. The closing sounded fine though, more natural. Always super-well groomed.

  5. Something about this playoffs feels like it’s just time. It won’t be easy, it won’t be odds on, I’d say we are the least rounded team of the final 4. But the playoffs aren’t about stats. Anyone can beat anyone, and let’s see who wants it more.

    Good luck boys

  6. Skinner somehow turns into a wall, and the Oilers have this. Otherwise….. I'd go with Pickard to start as he's the one who beat Dallas this year.

  7. I was hoping for the stars against Vegas, because I was worried about the oilers facing Vegas…….seeing now what level of hockey the stars are playing…..I kinda regret it.
    I wanna root for skinner, but he's no otinger.
    They gotta keep the defense tight, and not over commit on the forecheck. This is probably the biggest hurdle for them on the road to the cup.

  8. People are forgetting that the Avs were not the Stanley Cup Avs they were missing two big pieces so that hurt them. Oilers only chance, if Skinner plays great and stops the mental mistakes. 😮

  9. The team that makes the least turnovers and giveaways will win this series, the only thing that can throw that off is the quality of refereeing and off ice officials. Oilers in 6.
