I don't want to deal with a game 7. Let's get this over with tonight. McDavid is overdue for an explosion.

The fact that McDavid hasn't been the main thing driving the team, is extremely reassuring.
How many years has it been that we've placed all our success on one or two players?
Nice to have mefpth... I mean depth, we haven't had it for so longer I forgot how to spell it.
2015/2016 - This Kool-Aid tastes like McDavid flavoured Drain-O.
2016/2017 - This Kool-Aid is starting to taste like juice.
2017/2018 - I'm drinking this Kool-Aid, in hopes that it's Drain-O.
2018/2019 - Another round of Drain-O, good sir!

This would be a big statement for the next round of the playoffs. Everyone saw the games McDavid took over and won for us in the regular season, time to do the same in the postseason.

I think McDavid is due tight checking or not, predict he will have a big game. ( Or maybe Desharnais can make Chia look like a double genius and do it again )

Looks like Donskoi's back in, Meier's out. Boedker's in as well, looks like.
I, for one, smilrked and nodded my head when I read the Meier is set to be scratched tonight. He's played a very physical and pest like series so far, IMO, and for him to not be dressed is a plus.
There was no 'edge of my seat' for the 3rd and OT periods of game 5 in my house. I was standing. Wife was standing. We woke up the 9month old with Klef's goal and brought her to the living room for OT. I don't think my household could withstand a game 7 in this back and forth series. Obviously hoping they can find the killer instinct and brew up some shark fin soup tonight. Everyone and their dog know the Sharks won't go down easy. If they can play like they did from midway through the second till the Desharnais goal of game 5, they'll have a great shot at sending the Sharks back out to sea.
Let's go Oilers!!

Donskoi is good, but Meier is better. I have no idea what DeBoer is thinking here. Sharks fan seem unpleased as well.

Another fail.

Wreck the...tanker?
There are mobile rigs, but that's not how they look.
Should we do something about taking out sharks but have dolphins in the picture? :)
I guess the towel that made no sense did help them last time though.

I hope there are Anaheim "Wreck the Rig" towels too.

I can sign off on that. There are no small games.
Please do not feed the bears. Feeding the bears creates a dependent population unable to survive on their own. Bears.

The Sharks always have an amazing first 10 minutes. If the Oilers can withstand it, preferably getting the puck in their zone and throwing some good puck at Martin Jones then I feel there is a chance tonight.
An early Sharks goal would be disastrous.

I love mayo, and I want the Oil to put the Sharks away though!

Nice! Meier has been a thorn in our side the whole series, no idea what DeBoer is thinking keeping him out, but I like it.

In his post practice media scrum, he said they'll be going with their experienced lineup for tonight. Which would explain why he's scratching rookie Meier for sophomore Donskoi. Like I said, seeing Meier scratched would be a plus for the Oilers the way he's played so far.

MUCH ORANGE! SUCH HYPE! SO KASSIAN! VERY PLAYOFFS!
I'd like to dedicate this game to keeping Nuge's playoff beard going. Kassian obviously rocks the wolverine chops, but Nuge has got it working with the V for Vendetta look.
