There first shot was the game winner, sometimes thats all it takes, but Skinner needs to play big and quit dropping down to that butterfly style all the time.
Let’s not put to much pressure on ourselves. As for Florida fans – They have no energy. We have to be our own source of energy in Sunshine. Florida fans are a 180 flip of Oilers fans – So on the road, we gotta create our own belief, confidence and energy.
We cannot over think simple plays. We cannot go for the highlight reel goals.
We need bodies in front of Bob. If Bob can’t see, he can’t stop anything.
We also have to make more space on the offensive blue line. They pressure us hard at the point, so we need little passing plays to spread out their aggressive attack.
Move the puck up high, then quickly down low, then a pass into the slot for a one-timer OR create a crash the net play. Once we show confidence, it will make Florida second guess themselves, once Florida start doing that, we will have shooting and passing lanes open up for us.
If we hate a contingency plan for Florida’s over aggressive defensive play, we can break their armour. We break that armour of confidence, this Florida team won’t know what to do. Which means Bouchard / Our defence will have more space and time to make plays – Which will lead to more team offensive success.
– At the end of the day. Go with your gut Knobber. –
I see these first games as 'intros' due to the facts of:
a) different division
b) different conference
c) barely seen each other throughout the regular season
d) different team 'look' before trade deadline, compared to after trade deadline
e) playoff hockeys' always plays out differently than regular season
f) 'atmospheric' and 'environmental' factors always changing due to adaptational adjustmemts <- this alone, makes the mental Mind more relaxingly stable as composure, can always be the exposure
h) overall, daily Mental & Physical preparations (team based and individual) before, during, and after each practice, game, tournament, etc.
i) …and so on, etc., etc.
All of the above listed, are obvious factors and obviously, adaptive adjustments will always be preped for presentation.
Oilers, team, staff, organization…yoU are yoU for a reason and it's ok.
…glad to be alive, to co-exist w/ All Life, witness the 2024 NHL Playoffs, and especially see the OIL run as high as it generally flows but once that 'valve' is released…
First game was a victory for the Oilers. Losing the first game always works in their favor anyway. Their victory is already being played out in the minds of both teams. The McDavid clan now believe they can beat Florida in 5. And the Panthers know it.
Panthers are beatable. Panthers struggled to get past a mediocre Bruins team. As a Bruins fan I know Bruins. This Bruins team was no great shakes…Yet Panthers take six to bury them winning Game Six in an unspectacular 2-1 final….
It's Oilers vs bobrovsky… Florida is a mediocre team and their defense is sub par… bobrovsky is insane. All the Oilers need to do is get bobrovsky at his weak side which is his gloves side as he has 16 goals scored on him on the glove side. They will figure him out in game 2

Coach , Smile please 😁
Oilers have a great playoff last night, this just the other thing they need to learn this goalie.😊😊😊😊😊 they can handle this for sure 120%
3:42 finally a great question.
Split up Nurse and Ceci‼️‼️‼️‼️ We just beat Dallas 3 games in a row, why would you break that pair up
Panthers in 4. Edmonton fans see Florida raise the cup
Sit nurse
There first shot was the game winner, sometimes thats all it takes, but Skinner needs to play big and quit dropping down to that butterfly style all the time.
Should have brought the Shooter Tutor for goal scoring practice!
Kane played last night?
Put Kane beside McDavid hyman

Panthers in 5 or 6
Drake put up half a million on Edmonton to win series Canada and Drake are still taking L's
I was hoping somebody would ask about the Nurse/Ceci pairing. I was also hoping Knobber would actually answer it, but he gracefully skated around it.
I can’t believe Florida won the game on the first shot ..
Maybe just realizing and respecting the fact that there is a Cece/Nurse curse would help?
So frustrating can't hear the interviews
Edmonton Oilers… todays videos 'audio' are coming through the left channel only?
THANK YOU SPEC

Nurse or Cece should sit, Vinny should draw in….Also, Perry skating in quick sand, not doing much out there! Carrick or Ryan should play.

Florida in 4. It’s going to be a sweep
Mcbaby isn’t a leader. He’s a cry baby and the world is watching his failures. Looking forward to Florida lifting the cup
What does Jack Campbell and Darnel Nurse have in common. ?……. Big bank accounts. Got to make the necessary adjustments to achieving the best results.
Panthers are beatable. Panthers struggled to get past a mediocre Bruins team. As a Bruins fan I know Bruins. This Bruins team was no great shakes…Yet Panthers take six to bury them winning Game Six in an unspectacular 2-1 final….
Finally a Spector question I actually like. Coach should be called out for putting Nurse and Ceci together
Let’s go oilers let’s go!! Darnell and ceci again wooooo
If your a florida fan, hockey doesnt run through your blood. I know you want to cross over and cheer for Oilers, its ok, will allow you.😂
The Bennet “collision” on Connor McDavid was no accident.
It's Oilers vs bobrovsky… Florida is a mediocre team and their defense is sub par… bobrovsky is insane. All the Oilers need to do is get bobrovsky at his weak side which is his gloves side as he has 16 goals scored on him on the glove side. They will figure him out in game 2
why have a left and right speaker when you could only use the left, in mono
Nice job with this interview spec actually asked a good question
Oilers fans are the worst in pro sports. Go Panthers!
