38 comments

1. I really hope Ekholm comes back this game, would be HUGE for the PK

2. LET'S GO OILERS !!!

3. The special teams need some McMagic dust !!

4. We’re More closer to 6 thousand 🤜🏽

5. Anybody else wanna see Jeff Skinner?

6. I wish I could feel confident that Stu will make a few more saves, but I just can’t really get my hopes up. I hope the team can play a solid 60 mins in front of him too of course

   In Austin we trust 🫡
   5-2 oilers win and keep the D lines together!! Need Connor to get a big 3-4 point night

7. nice playoff beard from austin!!

8. I would actually take Perry out and put Arvidsson in. I would also replace Frederic with Jeff Skinner. Need a shake up and more balanced line usage.

9. Oil will dominate all 60 mins this game and not just 40 mins, assuming of course, Skinner doesn’t let in an early easy one and DeBoer & Stars don’t figure a way to shut down our superstars and keep them on McDrycycles like they did last year.

10. The Stars looked like an AHL team for the first 2 periods. They look like they had no confidence and perhaps fear in theirs eyes, then Drai decides to toss one….💣…Surrender 3 pp goals in 5 mins. ..giving life and belief to the Stars team who had none! Did the Oil create a monster? We will find out tonite! G O G!

11. Agreed Kane is a great wing with McDavid and RNH has been great in the past with Drai

12. Austin, if we are to win this series the pk has to improve, Moreso than our pp. Our pk had success last year because of the speed McLoed, Foegele, Holloway, Brown and Janmark brought….Now we have Henrique killing penalties, who's probably the 2nd slowest on the team, also taking the pk draws, which he loses 75% of the time, what's the point in having him out there?? The Coach should use Nuge, Brown, Janmark, Kapanen and maybe Hyman on the pk….We need "quicker" guys there! Imo Dallas pp and Oiler pk is going to decide this series. That's my take and I'm sticking to it!

13. I actually just had a dream where Mcdavid scores and Oilers win 4-2 (same as your prediction lol), hope that means it’ll come to fruition

14. The Canadian Men's National Team screwed up at the World Championships, losing to Denmark in the quarterfinals! Fat cats 🤑MacKinnon/Crosby and the rest of the NHL's "Fantilises" lost to a country that had NEVER played in the semifinals in its history and only had 1 NHL player on its roster. What a disgrace for Canada!😜Denmark has 13 hockey rinks across the country!

15. 1 key to tonight's game: score more than Dallas.

16. Are we gonna get Skinnered or not?

17. Biggest game of the McDavid era, a must win

18. One of the Conference finals is really tightly matched, and the other is Canes vs Panthers 💀

19. Good games guys. I love the chirp but no real bad blood between Edmonton and Texas. Best of luck.

20. We need Stuart Skinner to not be Stuart Skinner. We need him to be Picard 2.0.

21. I'll always give you a thumb up

22. If we want it. We win. We are better when we play better. We need a Florida rematch & TOTAL REVENGE.

23. Stars fan.
    Appreciate the content and respect the grind. Looking forward to a great series! Should be a dogfight and very interested to see the adjustments both teams have made. Let’s GO STARS!! #FinnishMafia #GoStars

24. Let's go oilers!!!

25. Skinner better stop a few.

26. Let's go Oilers! I trust in Skinner to make the big save when we need it. Get the PK back in order and keep the ball rolling. Take it to Dallas and bury the chances. We need to be relentless the full 60 minutes and play complete games.

27. Stuart Skinner…Stop going down so often and and don't go down early like you do on most of your goals.
    Those are your two biggest faults!

28. Skinner still in net, pretending Pickard is hurt, not buying it. Skinner in net? I'm not watching the game. This is the biggest load of BS I've ever seen. Fire bowman/jackson yes, but who hired them? Bob Nicholson, so fire him too. What sane person would get rid of Ken Holland, the greatest GM of all time, got us 2 goals away from the cup? fire nicholson/bowman/jackson. And let connor and leon win a cup FFS.

29. Please, Oilers, limit how many penalties you take. I'm begging.
    That being said, Let's Go Oilers!

30. 2 goal lead in the 3rd against the stars means your gonna lose lol

31. Stars fan here , great analysis!

32. I love the pregame video because it’s usually non bies

33. DALLAS gonna get ya.

34. Why am I so nervous…?! Ah…😫

35. Watching your pregame analysis always gets me pumped for the game. LETS FN GOOOO!!

36. You have to keep Perry. Here’s my lines Austin.

    Kane-Mcdavid-Perry
    Rnh-drais-Hyman
    Podkolzin-Rico-brown
    Fredric-janmark- kapanen
    It makes sense cuz both kane and Perry have chemistry with Mcdavid, their both gritty and goes to the net. And kane has sneaky speed.
    Drais has shown he works with rnh and Hyman so no need for explanation. Podkolzin brings a presence on that 3rd line and 4th line can chip in with scoring and would be good defensively. It makes so much sence

37. Agreed, get the split and everyone is happy. Players to watch: Kane, Brown, and Bouch. I feel a big game from depth players coming up, Kane and Brown specifically. Defense needs to tighten up and ESPECIALLY on that PK, so that defense needs Bouch to be 100% and not do any turnovers or limit it them. Oilers 4-2. Last game they took their foot off the gas and paid the price, I don't think they make the same mistake twice.
