If Pettersson can outscore McDavid in the entire series, we win. Easy peasy!

And if my aunt had balls, she’d be my uncle.

 

Something is wrong with Petey and I wouldn’t count on him to produce more than McBaby.

let’s prove them wrong boys!! Nothing like being an underdog!!

Its wild to me. 

One team finished higher in the standings, played and beat the tougher opponent (who played really well) in RD1, and SWEPT the other team in the season series 4-0... including  a game a couple weeks ago with the back up goalie.  And yet everyone picks the team that lost the season series, finished lower in the standings, played the easier opponent (who played terribly by the way) .. crazy. 

 

A couple interesting stats from the Oilers RD1

 

All three of Vancouver's goalies have better stats than the Oilers starter.

 

McDavid  12 points   only +3

Draisaitl  10 points only +2

RNH  6 points    only 0

Hyman 8 points only +4

 

This tells me that these three players were either ineffective and/or pretty terrible 5 on 5 and completely relied on the refs gifting them numerous powerplays. Almost the entire lower half of their roster is in the negative even though the Oilers scored 22 goals in 5 games.

Hey Mark, keep our team's name outta your mouth. Stuff some Lays in there.

The only time I want to see his face is on the back of the urinal in the men's room.  The Rogers Arena janitorial staff would love the improvement of the gents' accuracy.

I can’t find these same analysts predictions for the first round anywhere. I’d be curious to see their accuracy in the first round before lending too much weight to their need to ramp up McDavid’s tv viewership value now that the leafs are out.

Pretty sure there were only a couple of outliers picking Boston over the Leafs.

Update from the farm ... Abby falls 4-0 to the Reign.  Series now moves to Abbotsford where they need to win all 3 to advance.  One loss and it's over.

How can Ferraro pick against the team he does colour for? And the team where his wife is the AGM. Lmao.

Well…..Sat Shah (SN650) picked Oilers to win the Cup at the beginning of the season.  
He should be fired!

Nowadays your Aunt can identify as an “Uncle”.

It’s a good to have some light cast on public opinions of the various broadcast crews.

 

I can’t imaging an easier way for SN to read their viewership and adjust to move forward. It only makes sense to give the audience what they want.

Rumour is he'd actually like that...
