Unfortunately had to watch on ESPN. They had Maroon micked for the exchange with Kane to start. Solid game all around . Too bad Janmark was out and JP was in. Campbell looked good. Vinnie did not look out of place. Exciting game all around despite not hearing Louie and Jack. Keep the vids rolling
Awesome game, great pushback in the 3rd to take the win. Loved watching all the temper tantrums from the bolts. And what is up Maroons wazoo to slew foot Conor? Great vid as usual Patrick
Wasnt able to watch the game tonight due to other commitments but sounds like a really great game. Thanks so much for the recap. It's great to see the Oilers come together in the last couple weeks. Beating a powerhouse like Tampa is a big deal. Lets keep rolling Oil!
The reffing tonight was pathetic. NHL is really, really trying to favour the US teams, it couldn't be more obvious.
Nurse almost cost us this one. Glad they kept their shit together in the third and Jack doing enough to get the wins. Klim and Vinnie have been a blessing.
Great game for the Oilers. Finally, an Oilers player sends out a message to the opponent team not to touch their best players. Kostin got a pretty good punch on Maroon's face. Vinnie was awesome in front of his own net. He makes a lot of opponents frustrated. This is the type of defenseman the Oilers were lacking in the first half of the season.
Woodcroft insists on playing a stacked first line (97-29-X) even though they are lousy defensively (-2) – consistently! … McDavid would have scored that beautiful goal no matter who was his linemate. … Nurse looks like he’s playing “zone defense (like in football)” half the time. Desharnais (+2), on the other hand, chases down, catches and mauls opposing players in the Oilers’ zone. … Kostin and Desharnais make a big difference!
I wouldn’t trade Broberg and Bouchard pair👀 looks dominant. Jesse, foegele, Ryan, Barrie should be on the block. Shutdown d man and a top 6 or 9 player and oilers could win a cup!!!
Ok, who was in the FU (Fabulously Useless) Club tonight? Nurse and JP. Big win with stellar efforts coming from the rest of the team. Another amazingly solid game by Vinny The Giant…aka The Doctor!
SEA snuck by NJ in OT… to be #1 in Pacific & 3 pts ahead of EDM. Don't think we can catch them but we are showing we can be very close to the top by working at it. Campbell made a huge save at 16:31 – & may deserve the win / more credit..
Do I have to be the one to say it?… Pat Maroon is a piece of s***. A dirty player that cross checks super stars while they're down on the ice and other dirty cowardly cry baby hacks and wacks he takes on players because his dirty team can't handle their scoring streak coming to an end. Tampa new they weren't going to win this one so they turned to a dirty game. Maroon the Goon is an absolute fu****** loser!
Confidence. I was thinking about this all day before the game. I knew we would win this game. When we play with confidence we can beat anyone.
Do u remember 2 month ago whrn we would.make a mistake or 2 and the players and even coach would mention them? We made 2 mistakes on turnovers that led to goals and we didnt mention it. We won. And the point of mindset im soecitically talking about is both mcdavid and hyman said it in the post game interview. The other team pushed back. Not we me made 2 mistakes. And thats the difference of a confident mindset. The other tesm is a 2 time champion. Been to the finals 5 times in the last like 8 years. They are a great team. Almost a dynasty. All teams will push back. U cant expect to win all 60 minutes. But you have to win the majority of the time or the time that counts most.
I hope we can thrive on this mindset. We cant play a perfect game. We can be the better team when everything is said and done. Thats true confidence
SEA & VEG are the #1 teams, so great if EDM can be close but they are #1 for a reason – best to not get too – but will be great if can be close to a #1 team
Oilers need to not play down to the competition. 3 games left for C-McDavid to get 11 goals and join the 50-50. That should be the challenge, not to win but have a few blowouts by to setting him up with a very unlikely amount of goals over these games.

During this 5 game win streak, the Oilers have outscored opponents 27-11.

This is one of those games that makes you go "Glad I was home to catch that one"
Give kane 2 minutes penalties is a jook
This was like a Battle of Alberta Playoff Game except CGY never existed

Great game and liked the physical play. Loved Nurse and Kane welcoming Klim into the penalty box.
Amazing game I missed most of it but i watched the half of the first and the 2nd half of the 3rd but that was an amazing win
SEA & VEG are the #1 teams, so great if EDM can be close but they are #1 for a reason – best to not get too – but will be great if can be close to a #1 team
