Dee Posted May 15 Share Posted May 15 (edited) Oilers start Skinner who's 3.62 and .890 for an elimination game. Edited May 15 by Dee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hockey34 Posted May 15 Share Posted May 15 (edited) They should have just started Campbell. it’s like they don’t want to win. Edited May 15 by Hockey34 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WillyGrips13 Posted May 15 Share Posted May 15 The Oilers are like the Leafs western cousin. Both teams have a ton of money locked up in talented forwards. Then they try to cobble together the rest of the team from the bargain bin. Both teams disappoint come playoffs. Also, is the era of the ELITE Canadian goalie over? Price seems to be the last one and he’s toast. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McDrai is far more talented than Matthews/Marner/Tavares/Nylander and a hell of a lot cheaper. Though the one thing that both teams have in common is the consistent question marks in net and defense. Can't believe the Oilers thought that signing Campbell as the right move lol. Saying that, offloading Campbell and that absolute travesty of a contract that is Nurse's would do them some favours.

coopaloop1234 Posted May 15 Share Posted May 15 Boston out Leafs out Oilers out. I'd say these playoffs are a success. Though I have to say the amount of drama from the Leafs faithful about how that series was stolen from them is hilarious. At least the Bruins had the maturity to keep their heads down after being embarrassed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WillyGrips13 Posted May 15 Share Posted May 15 No team has won three in a row since the Islanders won four in a row. Even the Oilers twice had a gap year during their five cup run. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fullright Posted May 16 Author Share Posted May 16 I am cringing about the Leafs....wth? Saw a few blurbs on NHL Network with Double M, Matthews, and the GM. Tumult! How about getting the goaltender deal squared away for the first time in decades? Anyway, the 4 best teams playing their best at this time are in; if Bob keeps playing like he has played in the playoffs to date.... Not that it matters but is Quick dressing for the Knights?

I like that people see Levi on the come up though, he isn’t as cookie cutter as so many of these other candian and american goalies are. Stuart Skinner on the other hand… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didnt realize he got hurt; I saw Hill in goal for one of the games and wasnt sure what happened. Thanks! Edited May 17 by Fullright Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
