Massive bounce back for Skinner the last 2 games, and a huge thank you to him for absolutely stealing this one for us. The team needs to get the consistency on their effort levels game to game figured out. They aren't beating a team like Vegas or Colorado showing up like this every 2nd game. Most playoff teams don't have special teams as embarrassing as LA's
Outstanding Coaching Job by you KRIS KNOBLAUCH. Wow!!! This is the best defensive performance by the OILERS IN A LONG TIME. Also thanks to PAUL COFFEY. You had a disciplined structure tonight -playing defense that radiated through out the team…excellent defense in the neutral zone and defense zone. Hats off to your entire team. Nurse was outstanding tonight played great defense especially Tonight. Stu skinner played like ANDY MOOG OR GRANT FUHR. Maybe they spoke with him privately and gave him tips …he clearly looked like a vintage Andrei Vasilevskiy. Bouch was great on D as was VINNY AND ECK. Nurse was fantastic on D. Bouch with the BOUCH BOMB TONIGHT 💥💥💥💥💣💣💣💣.you are right coach it’s bouch’s time. But your coaching along with Paul COFFEY TURNED THIS OILER TEAM INTO A SOUND PATIENT DEFENSIVE TEAM AND THAT WINS PLAYOFF HOCKEY
Skinner was on his game! Credit to all the lines because no matter what we cleared the puck and if we didn't the nxt man wasn't far behind. IMO that win is one of the best I've seen in the last 3yrs playoff wins. Nurse firing on the clears. Slew footing kings again lol
Huge win the way the game started. Kings came out pressing so hard. Just look at the shots per period, and in turn our shot! They were playing hard, fast and loose for the first two periods. And man are we getting out hit out there every single shift. I wish we could use our size a bit more with Foegle, Carrick, Ceci, Bouchard and McLeod. Anyway, let’s keep our eye on the prize and come out firing on Wednesday!
WOW! What a great defensive game. Well done guys!!! Skinner was really dialled in. Now the other teams won't know which Oiler team they're going to get – run & gun or disciplined defensive team!
Kris…you felt it for the first time…no answer huh?…no one has an answer so dont feel bad… there is nothing that can be done now, they know, they are going to upgrade their offensive tactics and they are going to dominate you again this time on the scoreboard to. Sins of the Fathers Kris,nothing personal, its just business. Good luck…you will be needing it in Spades.
I was floating in the air beside myself. Couldn't believe what I just witnessed. What clinical text book defensive performance. Congratulations to the entire team!

Knobber great job tonight!
Gotta admit, I didn’t think Knobber would outshine Woodcroft. Boy was I wrong. This guy was a phenomenal pick up! Gotta give credit where it’s due!
Our D and Goaltending was awesome tonight. Great W! Let’s finish Kings off on Wed with another outstanding team performance! LFG Oilers! 🟠🔵🟠🔵

Skinner won that game himself.
Amazing performance!

4:18 Interesting answer here, mentioning Paul Coffey/dilineation of roles.
…does kris sound sick? Or did he do a bunch of yelling between periods? Lol
He made a great point about every line playing the 3rd period hard every shift with determined back checking. This sounds like a bot comment

Knoblauch you’ve been an absolute Gem this season, what a year he’s having as a coach. Really an Elite hockey mind.
Oil is firing on all cylinders!!! GO OIL !!!!!
I thought this guy wasn’t going to help us but I was totally wrong he has changed this whole teams mindset on being able to win close games

Vini is our man great job "seaweed" great win up 3-1
Coffey is such a great coach!!
Kris Knob doesn’t lose.
Like he said, I don't think Coffey gets enough credit for the impact he's had on the team defensively. It's been night and day
Incredible show from Skinner and the whole team. Knoblauch is something else
