50 point Patty in the directors chair! Great game y'all! Loved the Bouch snipe to close it out and the fact that two D men got it done for us on the scoresheet. GOil!
Nuge's 800th Career Game. Again playing Kostin barely over 5 minutes. In my opinion what's the point. I'd say play a 7th D but we're a D down with Cody Ceci waiting for the birth of his child. Skinner and Georgiev put on a tendies clinic with Skinner coming out on top but Georgiev facing over 25% more shots. With this win and Vegas beating Seattle we're still 2 behind Vegas for first in the conference. Colorado is only 2 points behind us with a game in hand. Dallas is 3 points behind us with a game in hand. Unless Seattle does us a solid and beats Vegas at home for the last game (and we beat San Jose of course) we can't win the division. Right now our destiny depends on us winning and Vegas loosing for that Conference win. We have the same # of wins (with more regulation wins) than Colorado so even if they win only ONE of their remaining two games we'd win the conference. Unfortunately Colorado faces Winnipeg and Nashville for their two final games and Winnipeg has ZERO reason to really do anything. They can't move up the standings and NAshville is eliminated. The West final 8 are decided, now it's just placement. If Seattle looses we play LA at home to start round 1. If Seattle wins and we win we play Winnipeg at home to start round 1. Part of me would think LA would be better for us as Winnipeg can goalie you but we'll see. Take care all.

going well
Great game! I wonder how the oilers will be able to sign Bouchard next season, but let’s forget about that and enjoy the team we have now.
Great team game 💯👍🏾🇨🇦 Win !!!!
This is the best Oilers team I've seen in decades. I'm an old bastard, and I have a long memory for Oilers games.
This team is very very good.
Go oil!
Go Oilers Go bring Stanley cup back to Edmonton.
Bouch Bomb
No we just need the Kraken to beat the Golden Knights and Oilers beat the Sharks
What. A. Game.
17-2-1 since trading for Ekholm.
I'm going to count this one as a shutout. Fluky bounces shouldn't count against Skinner.

Darnell nurse was a beast out there tonight!….best I’ve seen nurse play…he’s really earning his money now!
I don’t know about the rest of you but I think I would rather play the kings then the jets!…hellebuck is on fire again!

Oilers win scoring all three goals.
Measuring stick game and the boys looked up to the task. Things looking good. Come on playoffs . Colby.. always an Oiler.
I see this team lifting the cup This year
I feel like were getting robbed not seeing Sid, Nathan ,McDavid, stamkos on a olympic team
can EDM beat them in Playoffs? (as well as LA or Vegas?). Not going to be easy
