Bye razaa
You can't always get what you want, but if you try sometimes, you just might find, you can get a lottery pick.

46 shots with 3 to go, wow, we need this level of motivation the rest of the way. Great game, likely best in years, maybe decade plus outside playoffs.

Good win for the Oil tonight.
Broken Clock syndrome ??? Maybe...Maybe not...
Still 1 / 4 so far this year. Not Meatloaf level of success (2 / 3 ain't bad)...
Good hockey eh ???

1-2-1, so win the next one, and for our side and it's a .500 record according to Gary.
Which is fine, since H2H isn't the first tiebreaker any longer.
97.

Omg thought it was great, then penalty shot made by Haas. I firmly believe now.
In past years I would per games by this point and skim them. Now I might watch this game again, wow, just wow a great game.

We need a BOA playoff series. These past 2 games have been great.
Loving Gagner's game the last few - would definitely take him back on a cheap deal.
The effect Yamomoto has on the 2nd line makes me want a legit 1st line winger for McDavid even more. Bottom 6 playing well. Not missing Kris Russell one bit.

So many things happened tonight. I don’t know where to start.
Rittich. Lucic. Gaudreau. Let’s start there.

That was fun, destroyed that lot which is always nice. A huge opening couple of minutes which set the tone of the game. We let them lose the heads and that cost them big time.
Now move on to te next game and the rest of the season, put the dislike for them to bed till the end of the season.
Take me home, country road
to the place where I belong
to Alberta, to see the Oilers
take me home, country road

Only thing better is if Hass would have tossed his stick. That would have been on highlight reels until the end of time.

Beat me to it.
Perhaps he should put a helmet on and stand beside Louie between the benches.

Of this generation lol, 1990 game 5, Edmonton down 3 1 in series, 3 1 in game, and Messier took over the game, then series and took the cup, but turning point of playoffs was in that game.
Police came into arena to see what was happening it was so loud. That was a game to be at.

My favourite is that the announcers SOOOO want to build up Lucic's "presence". They mention any time he's even near a scrum, even though the camera zooms in and you see him desperately avoiding eye contact with everyone. This is exactly what we saw with him against the Kings. He doesn't like doing anything that might endanger his established friendships. Against his old teammates, there's just no chance that he's going to do anything to stoke the fire.

Caught it on Ched post game. I’m sure it will make the rounds.
Likely an upcoming promo piece before their telecasts. Heh

LOL!
When TheKetchup said that, it was lame + lame = super lame
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!

GOOD TIMES !
Loved it.
Holy crap man, that Yamo is starting to be an another Ethan Bear as happy-surprise prospect of the year. He's dominating out there. Great hands, quick feet, quick smarts, forchecking demon. Unreal. getting better every game, spark plug on that line. Top 6 NHL caliber, Happy to see.
Loved Gagner going after Giordano, and E. Bear taking Turtle. Turtle figured he'd go after a smaller guy, and one who hadn't fought before, didn't quite work out how he planned. Turtle is a chia-pet headed clown. And how about that 89 laser over Rittich's shoulder to make it 7-4? Pure ecstasy.
Then Talbot trying to spark his team, skates down the length of the ice after Smith, gets rag-dolled, as he deserved for taking head shots on Gagner while Rat-face Giordano had him pinned.
One day that sweetheart Anderson will have to actually scrap with someone to back up his fat mouth, which will be humorous.
McD with two BEAUTY snipes.. he's figuring out he doesn't have to pass it off every time, and has a dagger of a shot.. #otherlevel
McDAVID! Oh YEAH Baby!!
Tic-Tac-Tao!
Keep on Rockin' in the Free World
P. Chiarelli math.. T. Hall = A. Larsson, Yak= bag o'pucks (OK he got one right...) K. Russell = $4.1 M+NMC, G. Reinhart= M. Barzal + A. Beauvillier, J. Eberle = R. Spooner,

They showed a clip of Captain Morgan in the press box, tool is right. His incompetence caused the situation in the first place. Hope he enjoyed his time in Alberta. #cluelessinNY

I think the kid (Yamamoto) has had a good amount of time in the minors, and some guys excel when playing with other better players at a higher level, they raise their game and tighten things up. That’s what it looks like to me at least. Major boon for the squad if this is the case. Fingers crossed for TB.

Would you trade J. Gaudreau for K. Yamamoto Straight up? [ 33 vote(s) ] |
|---|
| 1. | Yes.. after all .. Johnny is the Hockey |  10 / 30% | | 2. | Nope, K. Yamamoto is as good, and going to get better | 13 / 39% | | 3. | Johnny Who? | 10 / 30% |
Small sample size but that kid is getting better every game, and starting to dominate the the offensive end, plus can forecheck like a Tasmanian devil. Wins most puck possessions now, Tippet will start to trust him more and more.

The best thing they could have done is not toss the stick, it denied the Flames any material to rally around, Rittiches stick flip lit a big time fire for the Oil.
Smart move, left the Flames empty handed, on and off the ice.

It’s baffling to me how little Flames fans still understand Lucic’s contract. It doesn’t matter if I’m talking to friends and co-workers they all try justifying the trade and I keep reiterating that just not having Lucic’s contract on the Oilers books is a win regardless.

Yeah, I wouldn’t have thought it a year ago, but that aspect is certainly tipping the scales for me now.

During the brawl, part of me was hoping Nurse would get a hold of Giordano and give him a good licking.
The other part of me worried that if he did so, he would break his hand on that 70 lb boulder skull.
