Did you just reply to yourself?
Even Tim Peel, who is cheering for the Oilers thinks it was a bad call..
ESPN had a higher winning % pick for Oilers over Canucks than over Kings!It was when I saw this before the series started that I realized just how bad I wanted the Canucks to beat thee Oilers.
Lies. Tim Peel has never seen a call he hasn't liked.
the Canucks have the better team and louder fans/arena.
thoughts?
They got goaltending, they got their precious PP's and they still got dummied.
Great game from Pickard wasted by a poor game from the rest of the team. Outside of Kane, not a single Oiler looked good tonight. Perry is ready for retirement.
Gotta show up for the next one now.
Sportsnet analyst and ex-Oiler Gazdic said next game Oilers should play Skinner.Pickard played solid.
At least the oilers have experience
Agree with the bolded, though I've seen the reverse hit with elevation before (and from Petey himself) and I've never seen it called. And judging by what's written in the rulebook, it's clear that distance travelled is a key point about the charging penalty.I'd like the NHL to have one of their officiating guys come out with an official explanation. I truly don't think anyone on either team on these boards knows the rule well enough to confidently state that they got it right or wrong. It is something you do not see often though. Reverse hits happen all the time, but I don't think I've seen someone leave their feet before the hit.

wait what. this loss wasn't on pickard at all, i couldn't believe they were even entertaining the idea of putting skinner in over pickard.Luke is certainly a better analyst than player
Shh. You got them where you want them!wait what. this loss wasn't on pickard at all, i couldn't believe they were even entertaining the idea of putting skinner in over pickard.
What !?? As a Vancouver fan, I was impressed with Pickard.Sportsnet analyst and ex-Oiler Gazdic said next game Oilers should play Skinner.
I expected McD to go full-on mercenary and score like a madman. My expectations were obviously extremely high.If McDavid didn't keep diving this series would probably be over by now. That's why he does it and full credit 97 is an expert and going down and not making it too obvious.
In Ryan S. Clark we trust.ESPN had a higher winning % pick for Oilers over Canucks than over Kings!

With the puck dropping on the first playoff clashes, who do our experts take in each series -- and for the ultimate prize?www.espn.com
Consensus prediction: Oilers (23 of 26 picks)
Reminds me of when Elliot Friedman said the Canucks got away with the penalties. I remember when penalty killers got credit.Did I hear Chris Cuthbert say the Canucks live to see another day after winning the game? They lead the series 3-2. WTF
