Lose and only give up ten shots on net pathetic

Oilers :wow:
Oilers were much more opportunistic. They scored when they had to. They didn’t waste their power play opportunities. And Skinner made the saves when he had to.

dallas support players are old and slow. that was the series
Oilers killed them with their speed and intensity. They had fresher legs and less wear and tear because they faced easier opponents in the first two rounds.

Joe Pavelski and Ryan Suter are both 40

Chris Tanev/Jamie Benn/Tyler Seguin/Matt duchene/luke glendening are all in their 30s

Roope Hintz was hurt(back injury)

Robertson was a huge disappointment…I mean he’s a 6’3 220 lbs power forward.. and the best scorer on this Dallas team.

How about using that massive 6’3” / 220lbs frame to actual use instead of playing scared? He was scared to get inside the crease area/slot and score garbage goals off juicy goalie rebounds. He was unwilling to fight or the puck deep in the corners and along the boards… He was unwilling to drive to the net and pay the price…he played soft

Can’t expect to win in the playoffs playing soft timid perimeter hockey

They were tired and out of gas after two tough, physically exhausting/demanding series against vegas/Colorado

Florida has home ice advantage because they had more points than the oilers in the regular season. Florida was 2-0 versus Edmonton this season.

Nice to have the extra travel day in between flying. At almost 4100km between the cities it's the longest distance between SCF opponents in NHL history

Also nice to have a week of rest for Kaner, need a big series from him if the Oil want a shot at the physical Panthers

Will the Perry curse be lifted? 5th team he's going to the finals with, only won with the 1st :wow:

After Skinner stealing games and the Oilers shutting down top offensive players the last 3 series, everyone who's been saying the Oilers don't have a #1 goaltender or can't play team D can:
