  1. Absolutely no sense of urgency to get to loose pucks, no forecheck, and repeatedly tried to push the puck up the boards breaking out. When the puck did get deep into Florida’s zone Oilers go for a change or only send in 1 forward and not have F2 support. Out coached and out worked.

  2. The Bennett Cross check no call again doesnt matter what Bennett does he doesn;t get called 😈 Bettman can keep his Crooked NHL lets Create a Canada League only andm rid this garbage USA Bettman crooked rat League 😈But edmonton did not desreve too win anyways the 3 non calls last game plus a few this game could make a difference but the Refs know when to call everything in florida, then no calls in Edmonton its clear as day the refs Fudge up the games in Favour of Florida .

  3. Maybe next game we start steady and strong. Probably the dumbest thing I’ve ever said but every game in this series we’ve started super fast and went crazy. Then after 4 mins Florida starts controlling the play with either 13-1 high danger or 11-4 out scored in the first. I think we come out with too much zip. Let’s hit and control the puck be very defensive and support each other so we can have easier exits then progress as the game goes on and play off there pushes instead of the other way around. We’re always chasing in all aspects in the first it seems

  4. Paul Maurice is badly out-coaching you bud. Your failure to adjust in game to take down slow ass Perry off top 6 is a fireable offense. Team looked flat in a stanley cup final game

  5. Everyone has bad games, even Florida. We didn’t give up last year and it ended up close. There’s nothing to say they can’t do it again.

    Don’t stop believing.

  6. Very frustrating game, the oil didn't pick it up at all. No heart, no urgency, sluggish play. The coach and leaders need to light fires under their asses. They also need to bury chances. Someone put some body on Marchand!! He's the smallest player on the ice. Take the body, dont let him deek you out. Otherwise, it's lights out. The whole team has to be desperate.

  7. Oilers. You two players. NOT A TEAM !!!!!

    Go play in the Atlantic. You’ll never see a conference final. Nvm a cup final.

  8. For both teams who play even game plans (personal & strategic plays + seasonal & playoff stats), it's like 'tug-of-w*r' or give and take but each team gets better b/c they both feed off each other (as an entirety) while this series progresses.

    Progression internally b/c of external, is the obssession externally b/c of internal.

  9. Quit sugar coating, a 35 year old small forward dog walked both your stud defenseman twice in the same game. Ekholm should have been benched. Embarrassed once again in your own building, shameful. As an Oiler fan it’s just not good enough.

  10. How many hockey minds have to keep reminding you to shoot at or above Bob's ears? Bob is great, but he is predictable in the way he positions himself.

  11. Bro, those plays by Marchand are clearly set plays. 1st line winger in a 3rd line using the same cut in move. Gotta find a way to stuff that play and turn it into a counter. Also, they are forcing our lefthanded centers to take and lose faceoffs on the right side. This leads to more of their energy sapping play. Not really sure how Knob counters that one.

  12. Knoblauch having full practices even on game days…..while Maurice gives panthers a day off….all series long thats been the case. It shows towards the back half of the games. Come on coach save the energy for the game! Common sense! 🤬

  13. I’ve counted four times where the Panthers turned over the puck by a hit which should have been a penalty. Like Barkov pulling a player to the ice in front of the referee. The Panthers then score immediately. The referees would have to have been blind to miss those calls. To me it’s clear that Maurice knows the NHL will not roll back a goal so he knows that if the Panthers score after committing an infraction then a penalty will not be called. Call it brinkmanship. He is nonetheless demonstrating the flaws of the NHL’s policy of not rolling back a goal.

  14. Time to start gettin with the times Oiley fans, time to ditch the Oil and get an EV! That's what ya get fer supportin Mr.Trumpy! Yer Fellow Kanuckles Fan
