No shout out to Kane, Sean? He's been most impressive seeing as game 2 of this series was his first game of the season. He looks like he's been playing all year.

End Doughty and the Queens!!

I'd be very curious how much that wrist was still bothering him last year to go with everything else.

The guy's passes and shots look so damn crisp. Something I thought would be the last thing to come at the NHL level. His timing out there is just impeccable.

Kane absolutely deserves credit. Wrote in my original series primer that a healthy and engaged Kane could be the Oilers X factor. He is certainly showing that

Kane just being a physical pest would've been enough X factor for me.

But he's playing like the guy that he was when he mind (frank)ed Tkachuk and the flames. Hurting them every which way imaginable.

Kane's first game back was a perfect example of "bad Kane" ran people without being engaged in the play, took stupid penalties. Since then he has been excellent.

Well done Sean thank you!!

Great blog Sean ( just kidding , I never read it, but thanks for writing one just the same) . I love how these jabronis came on here before the playoffs saying the Oilers had no chance and then they played the best NHL game any team has played in years the other night putting the Kings on the brink of elimination. Just goes to shows that these goofs are so confidently wrong and don’t know (frank) all about (frank) all. Go Oilers !

Well done Sean thank you!!

Is it weird that Calgary won the division, lost to us in the playoffs and then started missing the playoffs. Then Vancouver won the division and we beat them and now they aren't in the playoffs.

Losing to us damaged their fragile psyche.

2 goals in 3 shots is not a great way to start a game

No idea.

Not ideal, but starting the 3rd with a 2 goal lead is pretty good.

poor LA lol, but now Vegas

Amazing comeback victory! 4 wins in a row. Bring on Vegas. Time for some payback.

Apparently we don't get Ekholm back till at least the 3rd round.

They better not (frank) around with the goaltending, start Pickard against the Knights.

Who would've thought in an elimination game where we get 6 goals that Connor and Leon combine for 1 point?


One series and we turned a Vezina nominee into Skinner, although people probably aren't going to like that Schwartz has been getting credit for this

Who'd you expect, Vancouver?

No Ekholm for round 2 either
