GDT: 2023-24 Western Conference Quarter Finals LA Kings vs Edmonton Oilers 4/28/24 EDM leads 2-1

[Divine]

I think LA got away with some stuff penalty wise - both teams had one PP - i know you're just lashing out - it's cool

Trading PP’s is in Edmonton’s favour though. Just play the whole game 5v5 though. They gave the Oilers the weak PP because they were getting outplayed.

Even Hockey Night in Canada said it was a bad call

Here you are, in another Oilers GDT in the playoffs, in which the Oilers are about to go further than the Leafs yet again, and you're trying to explain why the Leafs have a tougher path, despite the Oilers having only lost to cup champions. You are a clown.

The Oilers got swept by the Cup champs and then won 2 games.

2 wins in 2 series vs the Cup champs is supposed to make them a contender?

 

[Baby Pettersson]

Oilers definitely looking like a beatable team. Not doing much to impress this Canucks fan.

 

[RedRocking]

They’ve never beat a team better than the Leafs have.

Edmonton tries to pretend LA some contender every year as if they weren’t the 7th seed (8th seed if Vegas was healthy)

They beat Calgary when they still had Tkachuk. Leafs seem to cower in fear of his new team.

 

[AnInjuredJasonZucker]

Fake call to give Edmonton a PP.

Trading PP’s doesn’t benefit the lowest scoring team in the Western conference

It was a legit call. It was soft, but a real penalty.

The Oilers on the other hand got called for a high stick when the stick was nowhere near the player.

Thanks for coming out, though!

i get that... there were instances of clear penalties that weren't called (IMO - not going to list em lol) it was an even game that the oilers won

 

[WhyYouHaveToBeMad]

Still better than the Leafs.

lol not like you are setting a high bar

 

[Oilslick941611]

He’s not injured, and he’s not actually that bad. He just doesn’t give a rat’s dick.

Hes a play for money, not for the love of the game or accolades type of guy. Definitely not a winner. He's in it for the payday and lifestyle, thats all and he managed to find a team with a shitty enough Gm to offer him an 8 year contract.

 

[thaman8765678]

Oilers get a free pass to round 2.

Hopefully the Canucks can beat them. But if not, Avs or Knights would probably sweep them.

They beat Calgary when they still had Tkachuk. Leafs seem to cower in fear of his new team.

That Calgary team went to game 7 OT against the wildcard team in the first round. They’re not Florida.

Enjoy yet another first round exit and punching the air like Cuba Gooding Junior that the Oilers continue to be better than the Leafs.

They'd think the same about our Canucks, lol. We'll see who gets long term bragging rights if they meet in the next round.

I'm all for total chaos.

Worry about Nashville first, they could easily be up 3-1

 

[Garbo Man]

To be fair to them, Dubois is a talented guy who had played really well at times for Winnipeg.

I just blame the player. I guess the managment needs to identify character people, but I dunno, he just doesn't seem to have any intensity in his game anymore.

I guess if your making that big a swing you gotta get it right, and they didn't, might seal Blake's fate.

Dubois very clearly showed the exact type of person he was when he played for both the Jackets and the Jets. Wouldn't trade a 7th rounder for this lazy bum

and Florida isn't Vegas

And how many legit calls were missed?

Wait, what seed was Florida last year?

Money on Edmonton, Vancouvers too battered.

I am. Still with my original pick of Nucks in 7. Please tell me something I don't know silly!

 

[T-Funk]

That 1-0 win was divine....

 

[McRpro]

PLD is the kinda guy who only got into hockey for the money. Doesn't gaf to help his team win a cup, just wants the season over with to enjoy the Cali summer.

And he's making a ton of money while doing it. Winning at life.

 

[Mike C]

95% of the kings shots were just thrown on net from all angles. Shot clock was deceiving.

Can't score if you don't shoot. Always chance for deflection, redirect, freak bounce, etc

 

[Sergei Shirokov]

Yeah for sure at times, especially in CBJ near the end, but early in his career in Columbus he was good, and he did have good stretches in Winnipeg.

I wouldn't have taken the risk, but even as an inconsistent diva he was never this bad, this is next level.

Your starting goalie is a goal post , it worked today lets see the next 3

That's where I'm at.

That being said we're not even in Round 2 yet. Both the Oilers and Canucks have to take care of business in Round 1 first.

Your team got smoked by the Panthers who then got smoked by the Champs who managed to beat the Oilers in 6
