Miss Korea Posted May 4 Share Posted May 4 A fantastic breakdown of the various systems used by both teams. In short: give the puck to McJesus (down low) or Huggy (up high). 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sapper Posted May 4 Share Posted May 4 This should be a great series .... The NHL doesn't give a shit which of the 2 Canadian teams wins so we.may actually see decent officiating Oilers will score 2 to 3 per game ..... We need EP and a few others to show up this series as defense and goal tending alone won't best the Oilers like it did with the Preds 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fanuck Posted May 4 Share Posted May 4 Need to exploit Edm suspect defense and pressure the goalie who's playing well. Won't beat Edm by setting NHL record for least amount of shots in 2 rounds. Stay out of box and commit to their system that got'em here. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rip The Mesh Posted May 4 Share Posted May 4 I truly think the Canucks take this in seven; I'd say six but I know some of the players are a bit fickle. None the less, odds or no odds we'll win. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

g_bassi13 Posted May 4 Share Posted May 4 I think we match up pretty well against the Oilers. I see a lot of pessimistic people, but it's also not like this is an Oilers team that has a history of deep playoff runs. The Canucks are pretty good at taking a team and dragging them to their level, even if they're as high octane as the Oilers. It'll obviously be way more open than the Predators series, but that goes both ways, and the Canucks have shown the ability to explode offensively, even if they did most of that at the beginning of the season. The Oilers did look really, really good against the Kings, but the Kings barely had any business being in the playoffs anyways. I'm going to say Canucks in 6, because there's something to this team's ability to grind things out. It especially bodes well over a best of 7 series. They won't go down easy. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rip The Mesh Posted May 4 Share Posted May 4 (edited) Oilers depend so heavily on just 3 or 4 players, is what makes me think Tocchet will take advantage of that. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Edited May 4 by Rip The Mesh 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trebreh Posted May 4 Share Posted May 4 Canucks in 5. once we frustrate the two whiners they will start throwing hissy fits. our sleeper agent Kane will make sure we get a lot of stupid penalties from the oil. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And as for their offense, PP 9 from 20. And if you count the fact that Dubois and Doughty were only back on the ice for a few seconds after their penalties, it would be 11 from 20. As for regular season, they allowed only 14 goals more than we did. And scored 15 more goals than we did. I do believe we can win this series however we are going to have to start scoring more. And play disciplined hockey. The Oilers are not going to be easy beats. 4 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

King Heffy Posted May 4 Share Posted May 4 Canucks in 5. Edmonton still has absolute trash on their blueline and a captain with severe character issues. The Oilers are not a good hockey team and they're about to get exposed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
