Unless Dallas tanks the rest of the way, we play the preds.

Preds final game is this Monday. They’ll be super rested and ready for us.

DeSmith plays so much better when he has time off between starts. He was great tonight. Overall our defensive game was great as well. Edmonton cued in on our big guns so it was a relief to finally see secondary scoring be the difference. Hopefully Lafferty has bumped the slump. The PP looked better for the most part even though they didn't score.

Or if the Oilers lose on Monday, we clinch the division before we will even play the game 81 .  The best they could tie us and we still own the tiebreak.  I believe we still have two call-up spots left and can use that callup for the final game of the season by sending them to Winnipeg and rest as many guys as we can possible by letting them stay in Vancouver for more rest.  

You're thinking the Oilers will lose to SJ???? 🤣

Hopefully they dummy LA first, then get dummied by us.

LA is going to suck for whoever gets them, incredibly boring team. Hope they get knocked out early.

Thought we needed Demko if we had any chance at all

Not sure my boy would’ve weathered that first ten minute attack after so much time off. Turned out to be a blessing in disguise perhaps that his return was delayed. 
 

De thanks DeSmith

MVP = DeSmith

 

Honorable mention = Our big bad defence core keeping the Oilers to the outside

 

Oh, and can't fail to mention the 4th line here either.  Grind shift after grind shift keeping our energy and momentum going.

 

Huge bottom six game! That's been the biggest difference between the first half and second half of the season, need that depth scoring!

That Soucy hit on Kane was a thing of beauty. 

 

Did Pettersson play? Never noticed him.

 

Mikheyev needs to go. Plays die on his stick.

 

 

This. He bobbles the puck or shoots it wide or into the crest. It is like Hanson of old, breakaway from our blueline and you stand up to cheer until you see it is Hanson so you sit back down and enjoy your food. Nothing to see here folks

So much for all of the Oilers all over the internet the last few months who kept saying that “the 3 Canucks oilers games don’t matter because the oilers were a completely different team at the beginning of the year and now a win over the Canucks would be so easy and guaranteed! 🤪“ LMAO. 

 

yes I know they didn’t have McDiver but we also didn’t have Demko so that evens it out. 

 

 

 

Well DeSmith did his best impression of Demko, and the Oilers still had McDavid's dog who was healthy scratched.
