A defensive, grind it out, playoff style victory.

Islanders West will get blown out in Game 5. Point night for McDavid and co. in Edmonton.

Oilers own this team like the Bruins own the Leafs.

 

[Rick Knickleback]

That game pretty well summed up the dynamic between these two teams. It's a bummer, but I can't say I'm super disappointed or frustrated this year. Hopefully, it means the end of Robitaille and Blake as execs.

LA's best wasn't good enough

 

[PuckG]

Got Skinner’d!

Congrats to the Oilers but that was an aweful game to watch. My Sunday night ruined.

 

[Burt Macklin]

Didn't have Oilers goalie stealing a game on my bingo card, wow

Kings are done. They tried their best and battled hard, but Edmonton put on a true defensive clinic. Showed the DNA of champions, this team will be extremely hard to beat for anyone.

Good series, on to Vancouver.

You guys say this every year they beat the Kings and then they get swept.

Oilers own this team like the Bruins own the Leafs.

In fairness though, any playoff opponent owns the Leafs

Tonight it was LA's Showtime vs Edmontons Shutdown.

This series is toast.

 

[RedRocking]

Fundamentally, this Oil team is miles better than the run and gun style from last year.

I think Coffey has done a good job with this mid group of D-men.

 

[voxel]

I don't know what to say... I'm used to Oilers outshooting and losing (see Jets-Oilers series). This was a weird game for the Oilers.

 

[Three On Zero]

PLD setting new standards for being a total non-factor.

Who?

Kings did everything right but score.

Next time someone wants to dump on Skinner, myself included, please remember this game.

And if you do, at least make it a soft dump in the corner.

Absolutely flabbergasted they won. Luck was on their side. Jesus f***ing Christ.

Lol why cause the refs couldn’t score on Skinner ?

Refs first star of the game for Edmonton

oh yeah for sure

 

[TheBeard]

I think Coffey has done a good job with this mid group of D-men.

They really shouldn't be a mid group. Bouchard, Nurse and Ekholm are all top pairing guys, or should be, but they make too many brain farts.

PLD doesn't give a f***. What a fraud this guy is.

Durzi, Walker, Vilardi, Iaffalo, plus some young players.. all given up to fit him in.

What a disaster that move was.

If that rumour of PLD for Ullmark was true I can't imagine how pissed Blake would be, a get out of jail free card & Ullmark blocks it.
