Composure and discipline will be huge. Having veteran players like Cole, Myers, and Zadorov on the team will help the younger players follow a method of reaction. The age old adage of never let anyone goad you into a fight rings true. 

Stay out of the box unless you are sure you can bring a guy. That PP is lethal

apropos of nothing, if we needed any more evidence that "don't you" is a killer goal song, it's the only goal song the canucks have ever had (that ANYBODY'S ever had) that will randomly pop into my head a day or two after a game, when my body knows it's time for more hockey. 

 

i hope to hear it 7 times tonight.

Everyone seems to have us written off and I think it’s funny. 

 

This may be the most complete Oilers team in years, peaking at the right time. I get the hype.

 

But like you, I can't understand why our 1st-place division finish seems to count for nothing. This will be the story of a brilliant but topheavy team going up against a less spectacular but very complete one. I hope their flaws turn out to have a greater impact than their gamebreakers.

5-1 tonight they break Silovs shutout with 1:30 left to get the moral victory

I could see use beating them in 4 much more than them beating us in 4. I think the Oilers are a much more fragile team in the sense that if we get to their defense and/or goaltending they can fall apart but more likely I think it’ll go 6 or 7.

The oilers finished pretty strong where as our performance seemed to taper off after the all star break. I can see why the oilers would be the favorite. Bottom line, whichever team doesn’t play to their potential will be out. Go Petey.

Nope.

 

Objectively refers to a viewpoint or approach that is unbiased, impartial, and based on facts and verifiable evidence.

 

Subjectively refers to a viewpoint based on personal feelings, tastes or opinions. 

 

Ergo, what you're presenting is subjective, as you did not provide any facts or verifiable evidence to support your hypothesis. I love the song, by the way, subjectively.

and yet the teams' respective records were nearly identical in that timeframe.

I agree with tocchet there, i mean the leafs and kings have a lot of playoff experience and yet they still can't find a way.  Let's learn faster and adapt quickly. 

 

Hope we bust hymen up.

The problem with To. is their roster construction; 50% of cap hit to the holy 4 core. Our GM/pres know how to construct a winning roster better than To. They’ve done so much in a year and we’ll be better in 2 more years.
