Vegas is worse. Besides we're talking about an Alberta team. A province if they had the chance would probably happily join the US. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coconuts Posted April 25 Share Posted April 25 (edited) 1 hour ago, Darius said: imho he is so underrated. Strong on the boards. Excellent defensively. Clutch player. Keeps this team relevant while the bring in younger players. Hate cheering for the kings, but hate the oilers more lol He's actually one of my favourite players, he's a one of a kind as far as players in the league go Bergeron was a player in the same vein but didn't quite have Kopitar's physical toolbox Barkov's probably the closest comparable out there right now Kopitar's basically a better, two-way Getzlaf and could be a first ballot hall of fame guy once he calls it quits Edited April 25 by Coconuts 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I go to Vegas many times a year and my sister in law lives in LA, Vegas is definitely not a worse city if you’re talking about livability. It’s not one of the best but many times better than LA. I’m also pretty sure most people in Alberta would not choose to become a part of e States, maybe seperate from Canada as a new country but join the States, I’d bet not. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LA is wayyyyyy nicer than Vegas as far as livability. Vegas is surrounded by desert, it’s also the most cringe place on earth I don’t know how anyone can spend more than 3 days in Vegas. It’s fun at night when you’re blacked out with a bunch of friends and hookers. After that it’s hot and looks like trash during the day. I understand that off the strip it’s comparable to Glendale but other than golf and sitting by your pool, there isn’t much. La has miles of beach, mountains, lakes, Amusement parks, tons and tons of stuff to do. Also, Vegas is only a 4 hr drive. If you want to go to Vegas for a weekend it’s like driving to Kelowna. anyway, a little off topic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve seen many posts on CDC from fans wishing harm or death on players and refs, there are shit fans in every city, Vancouver is not special just because you live there.

grumpyone Posted April 25 Share Posted April 25 as much as I dislike the Kings, part of me wants the Oilers to lose and lose badly, yet.... we'd have a better chance of beating them than the Kings with their 1-3-1 trap defense. Sooooo, I'm hoping for a VERY long series. Definitely 7 games with at least 3 or 4 OT periods, preferably added to the 6th and 7th games. I hate to wish 'harm' to players, but a couple of well placed deep bruises couldn't hurt our cause, could it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flat land fish Posted April 25 Share Posted April 25 Edmonton has some of the same limitations as Toronto in terms of keeping the puck out of the net albeit they play with more grit than Toronto. Both could elevate if they just committed to defence first and let the goals come naturally from their high end skill. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Hughes Posted April 25 Share Posted April 25 Edmonton is north Korea as far as I'm concerned. I'll never forgive that city for getting rid of the dolphins in the west ed mall. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neither team is willing or capable of committing to defence first.... Consistently. As you pointed out, Edmonton has more grit... And more players defensively capable anyway... Goaltending for both teams, inconsistent and average at best. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diamonds Posted April 25 Share Posted April 25 5 hours ago, Coconuts said: I know that Justin Williams was basically "Mr. Playoffs" but I'm still surprised he won the Conn Smythe over Kopitar in 2014. Kopitar had 1 more point (and lead the league in playoff scoring) while also being the team's number 1 PK forward averaging both the highest total TOI and average TOI on the PK amongst Kings forwards. He just played a much more important role. Oh, he also led the playoffs in faceoff wins. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I had to guess I'd say Williams won it because of the playoff reputation bit. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
