GhostofAnakin Posted June 13, 2006 Share Posted June 13, 2006 Sorry, Alan, but it's true. Carolina's the better team. They look it, they play like it. Oilers got this far on guts and hard work. But Carolina's matching their guts and hardwork, so then it comes down to talent and Carolina's better.

alanschu Posted June 13, 2006 Share Posted June 13, 2006 Series isn't over until 4th game is lost. I understand that it's going to be a ****ing tough series to try to win, but I have never written off any team. I didn't write off Anaheim when they were down 3-0 either. So seriously. **** off.

Kor Qel Droma Posted June 13, 2006 Share Posted June 13, 2006 I'll admit the Oilers didn't do much after the first period. But I still say they take the next game in Raleigh. Let's Go Oilers!!! Let's Go!! I Still Believe and boo on you Raffi for that retarded penalty right after Samsonov's goal for shame Jaguars4ever is still alive. No word of a lie.

alanschu Posted June 13, 2006 Share Posted June 13, 2006 Outside of the Edmonton PP (which was hideous) I thought the game was crazy exciting. Man I would have died if Staios tied that game up shorthanded on the pass from Murry with minutes to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alanschu Posted June 13, 2006 Share Posted June 13, 2006 Sorry for snapping. I'm disappointed. I'm not convinced that the Canes are clearly the better team though. We just have crap going on our powerplay. 4 straight games without a 5-on-3 power play goal. Do I think the Oilers can win? Yes. Do I think the Oilers will win? I sure hope so. It's definitely one game at a time now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kor Qel Droma Posted June 13, 2006 Share Posted June 13, 2006 I have to share this stupid story from work this afternoon. It's like everyone there knows I'm an Oilerhead and somehow they think that because they are in the finals that I want to hear what they have to say about the team. Guess what? Wrong!!! SO anyway I'm buying some stuff at the till and this one girl says: "OMIGOD the Oilers were terrible last night!!" the heavyset cashier on the till next to us adds in: "Howcome they can't score with an extra man?" The frustration sets in. I'm not saying a word. "What a bunch of chokers!!!" "They even had to pull their goalie because he was so bad!!" Finally I had to speak. "This is the EIGHTH seed in the West playing against one of the top three teams overall. That 'extra man' thing is called a power play, and there were enough of them last night that if you can't figure out what they're called you should quit hitting yourself with that stupid stick. And finally the goalie was pulled in the last minute not because he was bad, Edmonton wanted an extra attacker. That's not a power play. It's just a thing teams do in the last few minutes of a game when they are behind by a goal or two." "Maybe you two would be happier supporting your real teams like the Leafs and Calgary, because the Oilers don't really need any halfass supporters like yourselves. What next, should we fire the coach who guided us to the final because the players won't do their jobs properly? Or should we just fire all the players?" Mouths drop, glares are exchanged. I grab my change and go for a break. I love the people I work with. Really. Jaguars4ever is still alive. No word of a lie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Volourn Posted June 14, 2006 Share Posted June 14, 2006 Someone can't handle their team falling down,a nd choking. heck, my team did that in the first round, and you didn't see me snap (well.. kidna hard when youa re already unhinged :D ). Seriously, chill. if the Oilers lose, they lose. If they win, they win. They had a good play-off. Be happy, not snappy. DWARVES IN PROJECT ETERNITY = VOLOURN HAS PLEDGED $250.

Kor Qel Droma Posted June 14, 2006 Share Posted June 14, 2006 I'm not bitter about the Oilers losing to the 'Canes. Not at all. The boys in blue have been overachieving since they beat Detroit. I'm really happy that they made it this far. And they aren't getting swept ( Volo? Rangers? Hello?), so there is a little bit of pride to be had in that. What pisses me off, however, is a bunch of old and not so old housewives who don't know diddly about hockey yet after watching probably seven games in the playoffs are comfortable sharing their thoughts with me about the team. These people aren't hockey fans, they're just looking to get in on the buzz that the Oilers have created around the city. Nearly everyone around here is 'Oilers OIlers Oilers' and these two bags don't want to feel left out. Wow that sounds incredibly bitter. And Eldar my man, it's stupid stick not brick.

Volourn Posted June 14, 2006 Share Posted June 14, 2006 Bandwagon jumpers are par for the course. You shouldn't let it get to you. As for the Rangers being swept; that comment may have irked me a month ago; but now; it just allows me to see the posoitive side. The Rangers are back in the play-offs. And, at least, they will likely do better next year as I don't see them beings wept two years in a row. Heh. DWARVES IN PROJECT ETERNITY = VOLOURN HAS PLEDGED $250.
