It’s very unusual. The secondary Oilers have done a great job keeping them in this series. Any day now the big guns will fire.

Would be cool if a line other than Drai's would show up at some point during this series

Agreed with everything you guys are saying. They are even saying on the panel that McDavid doesn’t look right. I think he is hiding an injury. You just have to hope that it isn’t super serious. Maybe he will come out in the third period and be the difference maker. If he isn’t 100%, this series could be very tough to win.

I'm listening to rhis on the radio rather than watching. W T F is up with Cam Moon this game? Every time we score he's VERY muted. Dude, you're not on an international broadcast. Showsome emotion just like you do during the regular season. I'm fighting sleep here out East. Gimme something to be excited for!

Bouch so badly wanted that slap pass to the worst player of the series for either team. And full collapse now.

It's probably best that they lose this series quickly at this point.
This team isn't going anywhere and maybe if they lose early people will be fired and changes made.

One can only hope. 5-3 Ducks.
These guys are so cooked. Anaheim is a much better team.

Knobs done.. the team is chaos.
I haven't seen any team give up so many 2 on 1's or clear breakaways..
Bowman too.. that roster other than about 5 or 6 guys is too s l o w to compete at the top levels of the NHL... even 18 and 93 can't keep up
Watch Bowman sign another slow smurf in the off season.

Yep Knob is done. Ideally Jackman/Bowson too.
Find a way to get rid of Nurse.
Find a goalie.
Find some "truculance" and use it.

Ducks have leaky D and a weak goalie, but they came out with a game plan that totally exposes us.
Our top players outside of Drai can barely pull off a pass to each other. Team policy has just been play McDavid and Drai and pray things just work out. Wish we had Quenneville as our coach right now.

little luck for McDavid to get a goal. Maybe a sign of things turning for him. Hope so.

I don't get this. You're down by 1 goal with like 10 minutes left. You don't need to play 29 and 97 every shift. Roll the lines so they actually have something in the tank when they need it.

How much dumb crap can we do and still hope to win this series? Gotta be near the top of the allowed quota by now

Look at our forwards just skating big circles off to the side while there is chaos in front of our next on the 6-4 goal.
That's why we need to hire Cassidy

92 the only one with balls apparently. Then again the rest of the team just sits on the bench and watches the 97/29 show. They look exhausted already and it's 3 games in.
Knoblauch refuses to get the rest of the team involved.

Yep.. right on cue.. 6-4
Everyone on this defence to blame top to bottom..
No shot blocks.. no hits.. can't tie up sticks.. too slow.. too weak.. have to give up more odd man rushes than anyone.. and no prospects coming up.. we'll be shopping the goodwill bin during UFA season.
Good work Bowman.
