You have to look at the whole playoff series where Skinner and Pickard have supported each other and made the saves to put the Oilers at 2-2 and back in prime position on home ice. 😄🔵🟠 🏆🏒
Say what you want, the refs are all bribed and only support Florida, probably because summer vacations are nicer there. Even if not everything they give against Edmonton is wrong! They don't give Florida a lot of penalties! And the embarrassing bullying spectacle at the games in Edmonton was super embarrassing. All in all, it's almost impossible for Edmonton to win the series.
Poor stu took them this far and back to old skinner. Great Pickard came in and the team rallied around him. He's a great teammate to make skinner sound better than he was.
Stu did well, however, the panthers have him all figured out. They do not have Pickard figured out, and he will be edm’s secret weapon and last chance at the cup.
Unreal. I think back to the miracle on Manchester 1982. Oilers 5 at Kings 6 in overtime. The Kings were down 5-0 and won thanks to overtime. 1985 regular season, Kings 7 at Oilers 8. The Oilers were down 7-2. There was a game in 1988-89 when the Penguins were up 6-0 and the Red Wings tied them 6-6 in the end. Any time a team comes back from 3-0 it's fun and great. It's not impossible. Just less likely in the Cup Final. 23 February 1989, here it is for those of you who like comebacks. Well, the Red Wings didn't win, but they tied 6-6 and down 6-0! 03:11 PIT PP Dave Hannan (8) Zarley Zalapski, John Cullen
Calvin Pickard looks even more like Connor McDavid with that beard! Way to go, Calvin. I knew if you were given a proper chance you would deliver in this game and you did, thank you!
Fuckin rights boys. Not the start you wanted but you guys dug deep and to do what you just did to a team like Florida shows you are elite and never NEVER out of a game regardless of what the score is.
To anyone defending Skinner, the one sticking point I go back to is that Pickard should have still been the starter to begin with Pickard was 6-0 as a starter in these playoffs, didn't lose the job just got hurt
We still love Stu because when he's great, he's a wall. Unfortunately, defense was bad last game and early on, until Pickard came on the ice…. I don't get it but, I felt a sigh of relief when Pickard came on the ice.
The team structure is different with picks, the forwards aren’t crowding the net in our own d zone. They are able to actually break the puck out properly.
The Oil are playing awesome, thanks for the great entertainment guys.
Jack Michaels is the very best play by play man working today. Unfortunately Sportsnet/Rogers is playing politics and has there "B" team doing the series. We miss you Jack & Louie.

Picks was unreal
Great effort by the team after a brutal first

Leon sticking up for Connor McDavid when the reporter was referencing McDavids behavior after last years loss. True friend 😊
I thought the game was lost. What a series! I don't think anyone can predict the winner other than to say the Oilers or the Panthers will win.

2 Wins One Cup
Go Oilers Go 😊
It's crazy how even these teams are when they both are playing 100%. Oiler's got this!
Lets lead then
pickard a good dude man respect
If Edmonton wins the series, I think Leon is a lock for the mvp
Amazing win! Such a gutsy effort! Well done boys bring that show back home now!
Pickard once again came through for the team. Great come back. Pickard next game. Leave Skinner out if you want to win.
Didn’t realize Pick had gotten injured, I wondered why they went back to Stu
They better keep skinner out of the damn net!
Thanks Pics for an amazing game last nite.
Stu and Pics are an awesome pair of goalies, you have this.
Great job Pic, but Skinner sure wasn’t the real problem in the first period.
Start Pickard next game please
The team plays better in front of Picks

Pickard was 6-0 as a starter in these playoffs, didn't lose the job just got hurt
love you picks i have been writing on here you need to start.the journey of your career is inspiring looking forward to seeing you lift the cup soon
Stuuu was great, too.
Leon and Pickard are all superstars .❤ Oilers great team. from Edmonton
Both teams are AMAZING, so HAPPY for the Oilers!!! ❤❤❤
German enginerring
Down 3 0 in the first period, theres still 40+ minutes
We still love Stu because when he's great, he's a wall. Unfortunately, defense was bad last game and early on, until Pickard came on the ice…. I don't get it but, I felt a sigh of relief when Pickard came on the ice.
The team structure is different with picks, the forwards aren’t crowding the net in our own d zone. They are able to actually break the puck out properly.
Those grey beards that Holland always talked about were the difference for them in this game ….
Leon draisaitl calvin pickard
Let's go oilers
Pickard looks a lot like mcdavid here lol
Good luck, Oilers! I hope you win it all!!
LD29 should have won the Hart
Lollygag is an underused word😂
