Don't care enough about any other team winning. It's Canucks or no one. But, better it be Florida than those spoiled crybabies in orange. Bring on next season. 2 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VegasCanuck Posted June 14 Share Posted June 14 (edited) What was funny last night was, it's their secondary scoring thar was getting the job done. Their stars can't outwork their checkers. Edited June 14 by VegasCanuck 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D-Money Posted June 14 Share Posted June 14 (edited) 8 hours ago, Integra250 said: the one where Skinner fumbled it behind his net wasn’t his fault? Partially, but that can happen - Bob's fumbled it many times. The key is, Florida always has guys back to cover. Oilers left Tarasenko all alone in front of the net. Skinner was back in time, but had no chance on that shot. Edited June 14 by D-Money Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reg Posted June 14 Share Posted June 14 11 hours ago, Elias Pettersson said: Pretty much all of the greats have won a championship. Dionne is probably one of the very few that hasn’t in any sport. Dan Marino another. McDavid is a generational talent. How many of those guys have never won a cup? He will most likely sign an 8 year extension in Edmonton to get his bag and become the highest paid player in NHL history. However, he probably doesn’t win a cup as Draisaitl will be on his way out to get his own bag. The difference with the Oilers in the 80’s is that they won all their cups before anyone got their bag. It was a different era. Nowadays it’s all about the money. McDavid could certainly win a cup if he cut his pay in half and went to a cup contender. But we know he would never do that. So he will have to suffer the humiliation of never winning a cup while enjoying his $200 million+ in the bank. You may well be right about McDick's future, however I think he bolts when he becomes a UFA in a couple of years. Toronto is a logical destination for him.

Sure he'll still be really good as long as the speed keeps up, but he will be surpassed sooner than later. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob Long Posted June 14 Share Posted June 14 watching the oilers and shill Rogers media meltdown is pretty funny, but I suppose when the major sponsor's name is on the building, owns the broadcast rights, and pays McDiver millions endorsements, this complete flub has to be confusing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

King Heffy Posted June 14 Share Posted June 14 2 hours ago, IBatch said: Messier was a level up from Barkov. Barkov does have his strength, doesn't have the same wheels (Messier was faster) or the same cross-check your teeth out meanness to his game. I also loved Messier in EDM, watched every single game of the 1989-1990 final cup. They didn't have close to the same wealth of players, they did have experience and enough left, and Ranford played out of his mind (much deserving Conn Smythe). Also didn't mind Messier at all on the NYR's when he was gathering hardware outside of Gretzky's shadow. He was an absolute beast for them. Until we played them and was it 9? Can't remember, ex-Oilers well past their primes but still doing their thing. Cut pretty deep losing to them. Lowe, Anderson .. was kind of ridiculous really, how many trades they made that year, despite being first in both special teams and first in the league. They traded some very good players, to go for guys who's won and knew what it took. Messier isn't a bad comp for today minus the pugilence and nasty. Both guys were/are bulls. Don't see the same speed from Barkov though, or that shot, Messier's one legged kick-off like he was starting a harley, top corner ... ok well we did see that last night so good call. Moose was Howe re-incarnated playing the center spot. On the wing instead, believe he'd of scored even more goals. Barkov also is a good leader and not a locker room cancer like Messier. 1 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
