Edmonton may end up winning more games in the end, but the Sharks will always have the popular vote.

Please don't hate me for asking this question.
If the Leafs make it to the finals, will Polak still be injured at that time?
I'm just curious about the severity of his injury. Leafs have a long way to go in the 1st round so I'm not proclaiming they're on the road to the finals.

Question is if the Oilers will get their shit together for game 5 or if the Sharks will run away with this now.

too bad series aren't decided by aggregate.

I thought Connor McDavid is supposed to be an MVP caliber superstar.
As an Etown resident and oilers fan, if there is one thing we can say this season, we learn quick and turn it around, hope it applies here.

What's worse, losing 7-0 or leading 4-1 and losing in OT?

I would take the 7-0 loss any day. No hope to be dashed at any point, and you can wave the game off as a "towel thrown" situation.
You come out of a 7-0 loss mad. After blowing a 4-1 lead, you come out broken.
Pretty sure he's not playing again until September
Get your Champions League aggregate shit outta here!

McDavid... more like Cunter McCunty amirite?
Don't know what series you're watching but Gakchenyuk has been the best he's been since November and our best forward after Rads and Gallagher. Still making too many fancy ass plays that result in turnovers, thats for sure, but he's also competing hard, forechecking hard, creating offense and getting good scoring chances. He's been good. Hence the promotion to centre, to the third, and to PP #1.
Unlike Casperetty, who despite having lots of shots is yet to actually do anything yet this series aside from one great backcheck.

That's not me
I can't get over how dogshit Pacioretty is in the playoffs. He fooled me this season. He had that 2.5 month of beastliness, the best stretch of his career. I thought maybe I had him wrong.....nope. Had an awful end to the season and is once again invisible in the playoffs, like every other year. He hasn't even competed yet this series. And no, firing a bunch of harmless shots doesn't count.

That first goal was pathetic even for Price tbh. But that goal was entirely on Markov.
The point is, in the 2 games the Habs lost, Price allowed 3 goals. 1.5 goals per game average. You should almost never lose a game if you're only allowing a goal and a half.....unless your offense is the Bergevin era 2012-present Montreal Canadiens.
It's absolutely insane, but Price will have to steal a game (1 goal or less) probably to win this series because *cue broken record* we. can't. score. Remember when Mike Cammalleri scored 13 goals in 19 games in 2010? We need another clutch playoff performer like that.

Expecting a big game from Freddy tonight as well as Matthews.
Series tied 2-2 after tonight.

Yep, i'd be ecstatic if they win today but Washington must be fucking amped up right now.
We all know it is going 7 games. I actually see the road teams winning Games 5 and 6. Rags come in flying off the Game 4 win and take Game 5. Then they choke on home ice in Game 6 and the Habs take it.
Then flip a coin for Game 7.
I see it going 7 but the other way around.
This is pretty much a coin flip series in general so far. It could just as easily be 3-1 Habs right now as it could be 3-1 Rangers.
By the way, solid effort from the NY Post on this one:

Is Larry still writing?
Yup.
Rangers showing the same unit in practice today as in practice on Monday, i.e. the lines and pairings we saw in the game last night, but with Tanner Glass alternating with Buchnevich. I imagine we'll see the same lines tomorrow night.

I'm sure it will be Gibson. Against another team it would be a tough call, but we know that against Calgaryalberta we can give up 4, switch goalies, and still win, so there's no point in stressing over it.
