R1: Los Angeles Kings (P2) vs. Edmonton Oilers (P3)

[L K]

Woof, bad challenge of the 4-4 goal and it gives Edmonton a PP to boot.....and its 5-4 in 10 seconds.

One of the worst challenges ever. I have no idea what the eye's in the sky saw to tell Hillier, challenge it.

Oil fans will blame Skinner but their defensive zone play is horrible. Bouchard is a disaster is his own end.

I wish I could give this more than one like. Bouchard can score but is brutal defensively. The only time I enjoy his play is when the leafs score off his mistakes.

 

[Derk]

Not too surprised by the results so far. While the Kings are good defensively, they can definitely score. They put some lopsided numbers on the scoreboard in the last part of the regular season. Wasn't there a game where they got 5 goals on their first 9 shots?

I don't think the Oilers are going to be able to outscore their defensive issues this year, unfortunately.

We are going to start a narrative

 

[Derk]

Oilers squeak out a 3-1 win after outshooting the Kings 46-22. They seem to have figured this out after giving up 12 goals in the first two games.

LA has thrown the series away. Could have and probably should have been a sweep. They had them and let them off the canvas.
