Vancouver seems like a perfectly built team to handle oilers, couple of good shutdown centers, enough attack to outscore, sizeable defensive play makers, amazing goal tending. But OIlers are a very deep team, there defense is underrated, goalie look good. Damn this is going to be a good series.

​@ObscureReference9 Well, they're definitely not the league's best defense. They certainly aren't the worst either. Edmonton's defense has improved this season, may actually be the best so far (for Edmonton). The Oilers forwards contribute on the defensive side more as well, something I believe Paul Coffee has instilled in the team. I don't think it's going to be a series sweep for either side but, Vancouver definitely have their hands full. That being said, my weird top two favorite teams happen to be Edmonton and Vancouver. So I guess whoever wins for me it's a win/win situation lol. I'd love to see either a Edmonton vs Carolina match or a Vancouver vs Boston match. Be great either way lol😊

Yes they can. Demko is great but silovs and desmith are very capable.

I mean, the real question is "does Silovs have what it takes to play against an offensive juggernaut like Edmonton?" We've seen him already do so much in his early 20's, but he can really make a name for himself as the next Cam Ward if he does the improbable and carries Vancouver to an upset here. Canucks have been one of the best defensive teams all year long -- right up there with the likes of the Hurricanes and the Stars. They've shown that they win games because they only rely on their goalie to bail them out when they absolutely have to. Aside from a few blunders, Vancouver's defense was super clean from all 18 skaters throughout the entire series and the real issue was with special teams and offensive production. If those two areas get addressed properly before Game 1 and the defense remains robust, this should be a long series regardless of who shows up in net.

Nobody is expecting the Canucks to make it past Edmonton to the western conference final or to make it to play for the cup. Go on keep underestimating the Canucks. We'll see what happens.

Skinner isn’t as good as Saros. Oilers’ defence isn’t as tight as the Preds. There’ll definitely be more room for Canucks to make something happen. Also, I doubt the Oilers will be sacrificing their bodies, blocking shots like Nashville did. 30+ blocked shots in Game 2 I think. Insane. Regardless, series could still go either ways.

Patrick Roy was so good as a rookie. Right from the start he was great. Not sure if one can put Silovs at that level unless he takes the team to the cup. This series like Nashville will be super even. I can see the Oilers win a game or two outright, but in the end could easily go 7 games. Much to me depends on how the games are called. The refs can win it or lose it for the Canucks. No phantom or cheap calls. Dryden was different than Roy. He did not look as good, but rarely lost. Was solid and played his angles well.. Was great by the end of the season. He looked like he was in his tenth season. Like a vetran player.

Listening to the Oilers players tell us how MATURE they think they are 1 million times over 82 Games in Pre-Game and Post-Game interviews just became annoying and an obvious attempt to pro-actively remove the Officials power and impacts from the games.....very dirty pool against the Reffs IMHO..... Oilers propaganda...that is going to backfire totally...for gods sakes the Oilers brought in guys like Kane and Perry and Carrick and other lunkheads with serious discipline problems thinking they would have to fight through ugly rough house physical games.....the Oilers are truly behind the times and NHLs Evolution, Mcdavid has stopped them from Evolving, there ARE NOT going to be any Neanderthal Teams winning the Stanley Cup for another 20 years. The NHL has just evolved into a NewAge of exciting high energy Offense....nobodies going back to make the Oilers and Mcdavid slap-happy...time moves on....the Oilers failed to do that and are now stuck with a Group of problem-child misfits who are prone to bonehead plays regularly.

I dont know why the early games are so discounted. Perhaps part of the Oilers woes were the canucks beating the confidence out of them to start the season. It's not everything, but its not nothing

The thing is, Edmonton has been the best team in the league since then, so I don’t think it’s a confidence thing.

If Petterson couldn’t find his game against the Preds,it’s not getting easier against the mighty Oilers..

​@@leechap3 Funny, it's like Canucks fans have been watching the wrong season. They keep going after Edmonton's defense, like it's the worst in the NHL or something. If they watched the Oilers this year, it's a different story. Yes, the Oilers are not the top defensive team in the NHL. But, they certainly aren't mediocre or the lowest either. Edmonton can play the high scoring game, but can play the tight defensive game as well. This year's Oilers are a more mature playoff veteran team. The Canucks (fans at least) are coming into this way too cocky. It's going to be a tough series, but the Canucks may get a shock. But maybe the Oilers will too. It's the playoffs, weird things happen.

@@ROOK91 I don't disagree with most of your points, but you are dead wrong about Canucks fan being cocky. Some fans will always talk smack but on balance from what I have seen Oilers fans are more overconfident. As a Canucks fan I will tell you I am very worried about the Oilers and I think that is pretty typical.

Nashville honestly has one of the most potent Defensive systems in the league, They were tough!... Fortunately The Oil are much easier to exploit Defensively, particularly on the left side. Your Prediction hasn't aged well, and Speaks to the ridiculous overconfidence I've been seeing from Oiler fans since the playoffs started. Vancouver is NOT going to be an easy out, and tonight helped cement that down for oiler fans.

Going by the stats, Edmonton is actually a slightly better defensive team than Nashville. They were a hair better in every single situation except for 5v5 in which they were exactly tied. Edmonton is just as stingy but can score a lot more.

Don't think anybody should be worried playing a one man team like the Oilers.

I’ve been watching a lot and reading some comments. So many oilers fans have been saying oilers in 4. And here you are asking to give respect? I don’t think life is going to be that easy for Edmonton in round 2 that’s for sure… but I also don’t think there is any way Vancouver is likely to have it easy either. I feel like this series is going deep and it’s gonna be interesting to watch and we will see a lot of goals. Sadly, with Demko out, tocc is going to try to clamp things down defensively, which I feel is a mistake against the oilers

Seems like you just want to attack everything if that's the case. I'm just happy my team is in the playoffs dude. Pretty stoked we made it through the first round as well.
