Time to lay a beating on these shiny-helmet and white glove-wearing pretenders.

So far the away teams are perfect in game 1. I hope the trend continues.
I am anxious to see the lines. I hope they break up McD and Leon.

They were practicing on top line together. My bet is Woody's playing games. They'll take the first shift together, then split immediately after. Back and forth through the game unless we go up, then they'll go line 1 with Mcd and line 2 with Drai.

You could be right. The whole team has been together for since September, it's not like they have to learn how each other plays. I prefer them split up.

Jack Eichal has proven he's a Taylor Hall level loser. That bodes well for the Oilers.

Oilers allergic to game 1 wins, but it would be nice to take this one, and potentially shorten the series.

Am I the only one thinking the Oilers are going to have it tough?? The Knights did beat them in the regular season in points, but their meetings the Oilers are on top.
Kessel is my black ace in there, Kostin could be the Oilers black ace.
I'm set and ready to watch this go dooooowwwnnn..
Let's Go Oilers!
The very definition of insanity is doing the exact same thing expecting different results.
Generally Disappointed.

No, Yamamoto only scores in bunches. Vegas is screwed now. Watch him pot 4 or 5 this round.

I think it’s a close series, but if everything breaks the way it should Edmonton should come out on top.
But this is why we play the games. Hopefully Stone is slowed up with his back. That’d go along way in helping secure a series win.
LFG!!!

Even though we love to lose the first game every series, and in the last 3 we were actually competitive in, it resulted in a series win ... it would still be nice to win the first game. The less we can play the better, already saw some signs of guys hurting in round one. Skipping the feel out period for once would be very welcome.

Just like our barn, The Vegas fans will be loud and will have an impact. Let’s take them out early and score often.

If Stone is indeed playing then I have no doubt that our boys will give his back a good "testing."
<3 Drai, but goddamn is he sneaky dirty. I can see why fans of every other team in the league hate him. Reminds me a lot of Mess, even though I never watched hockey in the 80s.
*edit: Also, +29 in Edmonton today? What the...when I was living in AB this would be prime spring blizzard conditions. Out here on the Island it was +4 (feels like -1) today. Feels like temperatures are the opposite of what they should be for this time of the year...

...doesn't it make sense to at least start them apart and see what happens? Going 7-11 will make it seem like one of them is on ALL of the time. 
...this time, it's for real (isn't it?).
