If for one reason or another we lose the series and they do end up firing Knob, can we hire Sullivan 😂
Both teams stink and will never see a third round.
Mike Sullivan or Rick Tochet would suit the Oilers!
Get the win tonight
Lol at those stat spreads. Top two PPs and GF/G, bottom two PKs and GA/G. Tracks with everything we've seen so far, but damn!
Feeling an EDM win tonight; gonna be a slog though.
Henrique or Brown need to stay in front of the net, kane goes behind the net and passed it out and no one is there to tap it in!!
In Austin we trust 🫡 Let’s go oilers let’s go!!!
60% of the time, the smiley face works every time.
Whoever wins this one, wins series, also 0:09 CAT 🥺
The Kings are hard to beat at home but they were pretty lucky to take game 1 and it shows that they're not invincible there. It's a strange situation for the Kings because the Oilers have not played well despite winning 2 games and the Oilers are due for a good game where they actually play 60 minutes or close to it.
The Kings have got to be very disappointed that this series isn't over already. The longer this series goes on the more it favors Edmonton because it's tough for LA to recover from blown games and questionable lapses. They've given the Oilers life again and if you keep giving extra games to McDavid and Draisaitl they'll make you pay.
The only positive thing I find when Edmonton wins is you being happy.
This is a big game for both sides. If the Kings win then they avoid a complete disaster and stay in the series longer or even end it in Game 6, however if the Oilers win then I mostly believe that the series is pretty much over (but, it's not over until one side has 4 wins). Players to watch: Arvi, Bouch, and Pickard. Arvidsson has yet to really start firing this series, I think he gets one this game. Bouchard has been the unexpected hero of this team so far, has to be a player to watch this game for sure. Pickard had a great game in Game 4 and kept his team in it, can he replicate that performance this game? Oilers 5-4 in regulation. With how LA just sits on a lead and how the Oilers specials teams are starting to take shape, I think they win this one. The Kings let the Oilers back into the series and gave them time to build up chemistry, and this is where we are. What I do want this game is for the Oilers to not chase this game in the third period again. They have to find a way to start strong, get the lead, and hold it consistently, just for one win that doesn't feel like a heartattack 😅
Thank you for the pregame. ! From an LA fan.
Before getting into the video, here are my keys to the game for both teams.
LA: Don't sit back. If you have the lead, push the issue. Do not sit back and let Edmonton come to you.
Edmonton. Get the lead fast and early. ALSO don't sit back. If they get the lead, they cannot sit back and let LA come at them. Solid PK. Unstoppable PP. +.900 goaltending.
Coach Knob please separate Nurse and Bouchard, they both need a "defensive" defenseman to cover for them. As it stands theyre running around and leaking goals everywhere! And please tell Nurse to stay back and do his job! He thinks hes an offensive dynamo when he's not, he's making tons of mistakes and leaking goals. If he stays back and does his job? We win!
I have the alarm set at 4:00AM to watch the game live, and to follow Austin's live streaming. I only hope there is no overtime this time. I could not be on time at work so please Edmonton, win this time in regulation. 😅
Go Oilers!!!
Oilers are due for a good game, LA has ALL the pressure after last game. I think oil will win 4-3. Lets go Oilers! 😊
Let’s go OIL!!!!! 💙🧡💙🧡
Kings Fan Here – This was great. Fantastic breakdown. Looking forward to a great game
EDMONTON HAS A SERIOUS HISTORY OF BACK UP GOALIES WINNING CUPS
This team has more extreme highs and low s than a type 2 diabetic that fasts and then has a sugar & carb buffet.
Kuemper looks shaky right now? Did you watch game 4? Holy shit oilers fans are next level delusional
I’m just glad this game isn’t an elimination game
