  • If anybody thinks Dallas doesn't have the edge going into WCF, they haven't been watching the playoffs this year.
  • I believe my stars are the better team overall but under estimating any team at this point is foolish. This will be a great series. Goodluck Oiler fans! Lets Go Stars ⭐
  • @blakstud1
    The Desharnais/Nurse pairing and the Kulak/Ceci pairing was a great move! I'll definitely give Knobs credit for that. Desharnais has grown immensely! He is elevating Nurse's game, and the same goes for Kulak elevating Ceci's game.

    Can't wait to see how Otter and Dallas handle the Edmonton offense. This is gonna be a great WCF
  • @rt-rd5of
    When Duchene scored in 2OT he said that Avs have better top guys than Stars but they got gassed and Dallas can roll all their lines. Avs and Oilers are very similar teams.
  • @JHockeyFan
    Dallas has a significant advantage. I expect the Oilers to push them, but it's Stars' year. Stars in 6

    Why do these announcers always exaggerate the goalies lol. Pickers could have probably done just as well as Skinner in 6 and 7. He wasn’t that busy and still let in at least one floater. He got hit with the right pucks.

    Button picked the Leafs to beat Boston 😂
  • Is the title wrong? I didn’t even hear Dallas - just talking about Vancouver. Oh wait the last minute.
  • @gmotdot
    Pettersson is Swedish for Marner
  • I'm going with Dallas over Edmonton. Dallas seems to have the edge in forward depth and goaltending.
  • @BrodyYYC
    As a Flames fan it was really weird to be cheering for the Oilers vs the Canucks. But now I'll be cheering for Tanev.

    As a Candian Hockey fan for last 50 years, im telling you straight, no cake walk for either of these teams....the Dallas club lead by a pragmatic intellect in coach, the Oilers, a quiet calculating mastermind. Hard nose Dallas players vs the awoken dog focussed Oilers....this goes 7
  • Dallas is a juggernaut this year, but the Oilers matchup better with them than Canucks. Think ppl also are forgetting how Elite the top players of the Oilers have been this year in the playoffs just look at the point leaders, now their getting depth scoring as well. Their Goaltending though is still a question mark, but this is going to be a fun WCF!
  • @LinkRocks
    I'm a Stars fan, but have a healthy respect for the Oilers. It's going to be a great series between two teams that can win the Cup. My fandom aside, I do believe Dallas has the deeper team and better goaltending, but sports is fluid so let's see what happens on the ice.
  • @user-yg1dg6xm2g
    Starting Pickard in Game 1 against Dallas would be a strategic move. This decision would motivate the team to play top-notch defense and put pressure on Skinner to perform well when he returns to goal.
  • @TheChuckles1985
    Gotta give the Assistant coaches props to they also helped out lots too :) they never seem to get enough credit its always the HEAD COACH :)
  • @failcomp9915
    It’s nuts that the oilers made it to wcf with Calvin pickard as there back just shows the year they are having
