2nd unit passing with 10 times the confidence of the first unit. Except McLeod who just throws it away

We certainly have not been the better team the last 25 minutes. Wake up.

Yeah. First game I would say Canucks were definitely the better team. Very disappointing game from our top guys so far. Hope we see a shame fueled boost in the third.

Oilers look like they don't want to keep going in the playoffs. Just content to show up in this one.

Yep. Worst period we've played these playoffs? Just completely dominated.
Knob should be ripping them a new one thia intermission.
Need WAY more out of our top two lines.

They look rattled. It's like they weren't expecting to get mugged every time they touch the puck - not sure why that would be a surprise but that's what it looks like.

Simpson still confused how jumping a foot into the air into a player is a penalty. Give us Louie back

The first time Simpson has had an actual opinion on anything and that's the thing..weird.

The level of interference is ridiculous. People just waterskiing off guys all night. It’s no wonder they’re shocked when the refs call something.

It's great the the refs let a questionable offside go, then missed a too many men call, plus we stop playing to complain, and the big narrative boy of the night with the new baby gets the goal every talking head predicted.
Just kidding. That was damn annoying. And here are Oake and Hrudey to talk more about it.

Has Hyman had the puck on his stick for more than 5 seconds all night?
Oilers need to come out flying with a big effort in the 3rd.
Playing not to lose is scary AF.

Big boys not sharp at all tonight. 1 more period to make up for it.

Tocchet knows the key to getting away with cross checks, slashes, and dirty hits is to just do it consistently. This is the NHL and there are only so many they will call.
Incidentally this is exactly why physicality and toughness matters because the only actual deterant is the possibility that the other team will do it back.
If you know they wont/can't? Well then you are home free.

Better start in the 3rd. Really wish we'd quit flying the zone before winning puck battles though.

I felt we could have swept them. I thought we were the better team. We are not close to the better team tonight. A bit of a burst to start the 3rd, but since then, been a fire drill.

Foegele should have just flopped. These numpty refs would have given 'Nucks 5 and a game.

COME ON, OILERS... get your feet moving and start fighting back! Go get this game!!!

Pickard is keeping them in it tonight. The guy is having a hell of a game.
The shot chart is crazy. So many grade A opportunities for the Canucks in this game. Oilers D just can't keep them out of the slot.
I hate the Canucks, but I have to say... they have a hell of a team. They fight hard and take no prisoners.
