@IneffectiveMath: That win makes the Oilers the favourite to come out of the West.

the west is so weird...
After the player movement I thought the blues would be out in one round. I thought the Oilers weren't there yet... And the predators... well.
A Crosby-Macdavid final would probably be the hypest of all time, though.
 
Not sure why everyone keeps saying ___ would destroy Oilers

AFAIK the Oilers had the season series edge against pretty much every team left in the west

Oilers haven't beaten the Preds in like three years lol

Really though, I feel like the Preds would win but it would be far from a blowout

That kneeing major was definitely a back breaker. Preds had momentum going to be 2-0.

Fiddler's penalty was really, really dumb, but it happened early in the game and the Preds had mostly recovered. I could argue that Forsberg's idiotic penalty was every bit as instrumental to the loss, if not moreso.

Ah well, lesson hopefully learned. We'll see what Laviolette does for Game 3.

Fiddler taking dumb penalties at the most inconvenient times? I don't believe you

I love this. I'm a sucker for punishment.
So are all the little Edmonton children who thought dad's great idea for a surprise trip for the family to Disneyland was about either the family or Disneyland.

Who are we kidding though, with the price of oil where it is, dad's the one going to Disneyland while the kids get their 5 dollar allowance to go to Rogers Place to watch with all the other abandoned children.

On a different note; very disappointing the Oilers series' have been on sportsnet and not CBC.

The playoffs are known to consist of boring, meaningless hockey. Especially when compared to the regular season.
 
I would have a good chuckle if it was funded by Canadian tax dollars. Every province and territory must pitch in for the capital

I'm sure the mayor will pitch in. I can see Melnyk holding the city hostage at some point and be seen touring the Seattle arena like the Oilers owner.

I was a bit surprised to hear Sens get revenue sharing.
