Oilers ELIMINATE Kings for the FOURTH STRAIGHT YEAR 4️⃣

54.1 to go Kopitar the tip out of Downey and 
now he wins the face off sprinting for the   bench is Darcy Keer The Oilers looking to 
close out the series leading five to four   This series has to end this way with the Kings 
pressing for the equalizer Shuffling it empty   High drama LA refusing to die A five player 
scrum along the end boards car down there by   five field Sanders in front makes the save The 
rebound cleared by Brown up the right hand side   20 seconds to go down the stretch at Rogers 
Here’s a lead pass trying to dance through collaps trying to keep it in the zone It’s 
locked it back the other way 8 seconds   Down he races back 5 seconds fires Rock 
toward the empty net He shoots and scores [Music] [Applause]   Talk about going right down to the wire The 
Kings win the face off They get the puck in   deep They have a last chance to tie this game 
And it’s Biffield that chops this to the net   Watch this save in tight right there Picker just 
extends the right pad Punches it away right in   the blue paint And Conor Brown with a block and 
fires this into the open net with 08 seconds   They’re going to add a little bit It looks like 
nope It’s over What a finish to this [Applause] [Music] one What a game What a series What a sport [Applause] This series started off as a roller 
coaster ride and it finished as one   as well Unbelievable Right to the wire 
Hard to imagine a better sixgame series   in any [Applause] sport Fabulous 
entertainment Phenomenal hockey and all those bumps all those bruises 
all those wars all those scraps you saw on   every inch of ice every single game And 
this here a lot of respect between these   two teams That respect goes right out 
of the window when these two teams face   off against each other But it shows here 
This is what separates this sport from any [Applause] other Trying to kill each other for 
the last two weeks Unbelievable You shake hands   say well done One team packs up and goes home The 
other heads to Vegas to go in the playoffs [Music] Just magnificent Well Calvin Pickard stepped 
in and did not lose a game in this series Team   rally battled hard in front of him Down two 
nothing in the series four straight for the   Oilers And a lot of the Los Angeles Kings 
players giving him a lot of taps He knows   a lot of people in this league He’s very well 
respected but he stepped in there and got the   job done He’s the governor and he’s also 
186 and one in his last 25 decisions since January at age 33 toiling and seemingly destined to finish 
his career in the American Hockey League   You talk perseverance and I know it 
can be cliched at times but Calvin   Pickard is an embodiment of what 
hard work and relentlessness can   ultimately lead to A year and a half ago no one 
has him in the spot he finds himself in right now Goes for the coaches too Jack You know these 
guys mastermind plans against each other try   and make changes try and make switches and a 
lot of respect for one another too [Applause]

  1. What do you even do if you are the kings. Everyone thought this was the year they could beat them. 4 series losses to the same team in a row is just gut wrenching.

  2. The coaches challenge heard around the world. LA actually had a chance this year, it seemed. they were the best LA team the oilers have faced, but the coach screwed them.

  3. change the format..the LA Kings shouldn't be facing the Oilers every year both teams make the playoffs. The Oilers also have no Cup to show for it.

  4. The Oilers goalie story reminds me of Boston‘s Thomas story. Guy played lights out all the way to the end to get the cup.

  5. kings' style can still work in the regular season, but not in the playoffs…their coach is out of touch with hockey in 2025. this isn't 1995…

  6. The Kings had this series locked. Too bad their coach screwed it up for the team and for giving life to the Oilers. Pathetic!. Hiller should not be back for the Kings. We need someone who can get us throughout the playoffs

  7. Imagine if LA doesn't make any major changes this off-season and brings back the same management, coaching staff and core players….
