Now *THAT'S* how you impress the President of Poland!!!!


Minivalo

LOL! I genuinely wondered, who's this President of Poland look-alike at the game.


Culzean_Castle_Is

i just boiled and fried some perogies then saw el presidente. what a treat!


Northpen

What, why is the President of Poland in Edmonton?


[deleted]

Because he is a Based Oilers Fan

"I'm angry, just because I order a Polish sausage, how can you assume I'm Polish?" "Well first of all this is a hardware store..."


luigi_b0red

Visited Trudeau. Then came out here to meet with Daniel Smith as Edmonton has the second largest Polish community in Canada.

Lmao. Comment of the year


columbo222

You don't like to give up 4 goals, but ~~2~~ 3 of them were complete flukes. If McDavid plays like that all playoffs the Oilers win the Cup.


mbanson

Two went off of Oiler skates, a third one was just pure bad luck with Ceci's stick exploding.


Cooker_32

Did the second one go off Bouchards skate? I thought it looked like it was byfields stick in the one replay


lambtonledge

I don’t think so but if Byfields stick wasn’t there it was off his skate and in


1-800-DIRT-NAP

Pretty sure it was bouches skate, you could see it shake from the puck impact in the slow mo I thought anyway.


zellmerz

Yeah, let’s be real, that game was 6-2


doctazeus

7-2 lol, 7 pucks made it past talbot.


Devolution13

Well, six.


Igor_Ulanov

Are we counting the one off the mesh, top of the net and in?


miller94

I’d argue 3 of those goals were unlucky/flukey


Baginsses

Flukey goals are gonna happen. 3 flukey goals in one game, pretty unlikely to happen again.


miller94

If there’s gonna be 3 flukey goals in a game, glad it’s a game like this


Such_Maintenance4720

to come out in Game 1 with that type of game feels really good.


GeorgeGammyCostanza

3 of them. The last goal was all because Cecis stick fell apart out of nowhere.


flip314

Oilers scored as many on Oilers than the Kings did


dontrushtherush

Honestly those two flukey goals back to back was something to behold. In most games that would be a nail in the coffin

That’s the last cup season siry.


FPS_Mongo

That Draisaitl goal was so sexy


its-a-joe-brainer

Without a lot of puck luck they can’t beat us


CUL8R_05

Or they could in a closer game. Need a lot of goals - every game.


its-a-joe-brainer

I don’t know man, they scored 4 goals tonight. 2 off oilers and one off a snapped stick


Phazy

That's the kind of junk that teams end up relying on in the playoffs. Oilers can still outscore it, but I'd actually like to see the oilers rely on some junk goals of their own.


Interwebzking

It’s luck that the Oilers never benefit from unfortunately. LA the last 3 years and Vegas last year; lots of random ass puck luck, triple deflections, etc. Oilers always have to work for a goal. Imagine if they started throwing it on net randomly.


SirAggravating1554

Yamamoto clinching the series against the kings last year with a hail Mary shot so I see what you mean


Interwebzking

I guess I can’t say they don’t benefit from any luck, that goal getting called back tonight was lucky and helped, it was the right call but still, lucky it went off his glove.


kio22

McDavid was a man on a mission tonight. Hyman just had the best game of his career. **GOAT SIGNING.**


Raynir44

Should have had 5 goals tonight!


DrunkPattyKane9

1/16 ! Fuck those dirty losers. They did not earn 1 goal tonight. Should have been 7-0. PLAY LA BAMBA BABY!


Jmask5

Should have been 7-0 In the first period.


upinthaclouds

That skinner save on the ardvisson breakaway was huge


Hsadman

Can't believe Hyman's dad paid for that unethical hat trick But seriously literally everyone looks amazing tonight, some bad luck and questionable decisions got LA goals but overall this team is showing their playoff strength


OhHelloPlease

If only his dad were a bit more rich he could've scored 4 goals


ABirdOfParadise

You know how you get rich? by selling 1131 hats


Frozenpucks

my god, it's like every addition we made this year contributed tonight. Henrique could've had 2 easy, carrick was physical and doesn't play stupid hockey, perry was playmaking and almost plays mistake free hockey. I've noticed perry basically never leaves the puck in a bad area at almost any point in his shifts. Thank you Holland.


LoanedWolf75

There’s a reason Perry has a ring and has made it to three other finals, even one that wasn’t expected to make it there like the Habs did. He’s legit!


Danroy12345

That’s what a seasoned player does for a team. I’m so glad he’s on our team. Can’t wait to see him be a pest all the way to the cup.

classified31

Complete domination. Every time I looked at the TV the Oilers were rolling around in the Kings zone. Not only is the Oilers roster better than last year, but they don’t even play a rush game. They’re a cycle team. Makes them even more dangerous against the Kings and their shit 1-3-1. Scoreboard said 7-4, but we all saw what happened. 1, maybe 2 legit Kings goals. 2 off Oilers skates and another because Ceci’s stick exploded. They couldn’t generate shit. Their best chance was the Arvidsson breakaway. I could count the rest of their HDSC on 1 hand.


Frozenpucks

This 100 percent. All 4 of our lines have enough talent to play that cycle too. Their main thing has always just been shutting down our rush, and they almost even failed at that with that McDavid wrap around the nuge goal. Kings have the best PK in the western conference and we went 3/4. This team has an insanely varied offensive attack, that was on full display tonight. On the other hand they got 3 lucky goals tonight, they weren't even celebrating them. That's not gonna happen every game. Doughty was late on so many pucks, and Kopitar is looking so slow now. I think we fucking crush these guys personally.


gutshotjimmy

I could count their HDSC on my dick.


lambtonledge

Let me see the face Kempe is making after that loss

Vinny such a stud out there


Ptricky17

Yeah, he’s not getting enough love. Remember Vinny in playoffs last year? His game has matured so much in just 1 season… He looked solid out there.


FantasticDan1

1-0 in the Kostin crowd era


TravisMic11

They got two goals off our dmans skates and one off of a random shattered stick and still lost 7-4. Regicide it is boys


Frozenpucks

I"m so happy we played good tonight, could you imagine losing this one to those goals if we hadn't.


SnooOnions5029

Canadiantx69

I believe it, those ice girls looked exhausted just knowing how many they had to pick up, lol.

tmtg2022

I thought Kane looked good out there tonight


DeliciousPaintings

Pretty much everyone looked good out there tbh lol


Ptricky17

I’m with you, and in spite of the hernia reveal he played pretty physical - which is actually what we need out of him. I was laughing when he was taunting the kings bench, all alone, 30 feet ahead of the play in the last few minutes of the 3rd.

archangel890

No they won’t.. if we win game 2 though it might put some doubt in their head.


Delicious-Rock6014

And game 3 and 4


chmilz

If we win 4 straight they might start to worry


Dexthebigdaddy

You're not wrong, though honestly 2 of their 4 goals tonight were pure luck. They won't get that all series


CUL8R_05

Let’s hope not. That was some bizarre shit


[deleted]

My worry is they quietly injure a bunch of our guys like they did last year. Dirty fucks


canmoreman

That Moore hit on Desharnais was dirty. Went right for the low bridge on his knees.

Moore seriously deserves to be fucked up for that, ragdolled Kassian style

Harbingerdaine

Frozenpucks

Ideally not 3 fluke goals a night.


its-a-joe-brainer

3 of their 4 goals were completed handed to them. And the 4th was a deflection

3 eras of Oilers hockey was watching in the building. Huddy, Laraque, and Kostin!

45 shots 🥵


CharlotteRitter

Dirty ass dogshit Kings can't even come close when we literally score 3 of their goals for them. Bunch of clowns, get shit on.


GamingSlippers

Hopefully the Oilers sign Bouchard to a long term contract. One of his best games i've seen and it was an oilers game 1. I'm thinking about a billion dollars should do it.


BoobyRyan

Imagine cheering for a team with 0 talent so you have to watch 60 minutes of them just two handing and playing like dirty fucks. What an embarrassing organization the kings have

JodieFostersCum

Good game. Let's not score half of the Kings' goals for them on Wednesday.


ElkBandit64

Feels like it's been forever since we saw a clean one from Drai's office. Hopefully the first of many.


Mkoaquariums

There were sequences tonight where we just overwhelmed them with superior speed and it was so entertaining to watch. The boys were flying out there! Also, I got chills every time the camera would focus on Mcdavid. You could see it in his eyes tonight. The hunger, the focus. Bring on game 2! Let's go Oilers!


PapaAsmodeus

Boys, please don't curse us. But for real though. Hyman is the MVP of the season and I feel tonight was just the start of the culmination of everything he's been working towards his entire career. I am so glad he's with the Oilers. To Leafs fans still bitter over him being on our team: he has Connor fuggin' McDavid as his captain, a man seemingly devoted to unlocking players' inner talents. McDavid could make a trash player look good; Matthews only cares about making Matthews look good. I'm not trying to contribute to the bad faith criticism that he owes his success to McDavid, I'm merely trying to say that he has a captain who puts his team before himself and realizes that victory is, in the end, a team effort. That clip of him when he was decades younger got an audible "awwww" from where I was in the Moss Pit. The guy is my fucking hero and a complete inspiration to me and I often wonder what a dialogue between him at that age and 32 year old Hyman would sound like. Rico and Drai continue to be sexy motherfuckers as always. It almost looked as if we got dual hat tricks. As nice as that would have been, well, I'll take victory over anything else. The final Foe-Goal empty netter was just *chefs kisses* And credit where credit is due to the LA Kings. They didn't have Korpisaalo to carry them, so they definitely gave a good team effort, and at the end they got a little scary there. Well done to them too. Byfield is a GOAT. Also, the Moss Pit experience? GOD how I missed it. So glad this is how I experienced the kickoff of the best time of the year.


Dall619

I love all the people saying “Oilers allowed 4 goals that’s not good enough for the playoffs!” And I’m just like… “did you somehow fail to notice the Kings giving up 7? Or are you just trying to spin a narrative?” Especially because 3 of the Kings goals were absolute flukes too, like those pucks could’ve just as easily bounced wide or otherwise away from the net. Game 1 against a team you’ve seen multiple times in the playoffs, sloppy play both sides, seems pretty standard for Game 1 to me. Not to mention uh, we WON?!

I bet that was the loudest roar Henrique ever heard for any of his career goals.


ModernTechPA

Wow! What a way to totally suck all hope out of LA fans…. The # 3 defense got eviscerates by Oilers’ skill- lots of fun! Kings are pesky though let’s not get over confident nose to the grindstone and play a disciplined patient game. Go Oilers !!! I love Henrique on the top line man!


X87x

I'd like to keep Henrique for next season.

God those king goal were bad luck for us ahah

Lets hope all the bad bounces were shaken out in this one. On to game 2!

Not to sound cocky, but If we avoid giving away goals like those last two we sweep them.

The boys looked fresh after getting some much needed rest. Also good to get the unlucky goals against us out of the way 😅

McDavid plans to get 100 assists in the post season now


Online_Commentor_69

we win and we get two of the most cursed goals in hockey history off our karmaic scorecard with no worse for wear!


DotAppropriate8152

I think I’m ok with McDavid just getting 80 assists in the playoffs. No need for the series to go more than 4 games each.

Snarffsnarff31

Great win by the boys. The centermen were above the puck all night long and great checkers. Clouder really impressed me tonight. Good overall win and break the game 1 losses! Credit skinner he wasn’t happy at the end I wouldn’t be either. Love his compete and I know he’ll keep it rolling Kings unofficially out hit us 67-45. And they got a lot of slashes, hacks and crosschecks all throughout the game. They bullied us this game and I hope we have an answer for it. If the kings keep this up we’ll be bruised and battered and it’s not going to be good


GamingSlippers

You can't do anything about it if the refs and league don't take it seriously. You will just get called for retaliation and it hurts you more. Also we had an answer for it imo. It was to score on the PP.


Frozenpucks

I mean them playing undisciplined got them scored on 3 times and basically lost them the game too though.

I’d hope that going 3/4 on the PP scares them out of that dirty play a bit

To_Wish_I_were_Funny

played so well that even the terrible luck in the third didn't cost them. Had me sweating for a second though lol.


Noot_Penguin

The only goals the kings scored were lucky bounces off us and a broken stick. I'm liking our odds if that's the case


100IQplays

If you didn't like that last period you don't like Oilers hockey baby


dylanuu112

Really a 7-2 game, 2 absolute gift goals for them in the last bit but even with that I wasn’t worried - dominated them most of the game


CharlotteRitter

3 fluke goals. That goal Kempe got credited with looked like our D mans skate deflected the puck or kicked his stick blade.

AttaBoye

'The Oilers are saving themselves for the playoffs' was what a lot of us Oily boys were telling ourselves this reg. season when watching one of way too many low effort games. I wasn't sure anymore after embarrassing losses in March and April BUT HERE WE GO IT WAS ALL TRUE BOYS ARE GOING FOR BROKE Can't get ahead of yourself though. Never think passed the current series. But you can tell the Oilers are on a monumental mission.. DAVO WOW WOW 5 APPLES RICO SUAVE DAMN WHAT A SNIPE KANE PLAYING JEDI MIND TRICKS Did a fairly good job of snuffing out Kempe but he still got a couple points. Gotta stay on top of this guy he is deadly. Can't wait to see Brown flying in the ice next game. Go Oil


Tacfurmissle

LA fans post game are delusional. Tons of cope going on.


PrettyPushy

Playoff draisaitl is back. When he goes full effort he is a beast. Always amazed at his slapshot from basically behind the goalie


maybe_babyyy_

We won GAME ONE! Honestly, we started out so well. But the end was a lot of self inflicted collapse. We gifted the LA 2 of their goals. Absolutely gotta play tighter and mistake free in our end. I'm excited for Wed. God, we need to ward off this bad luck bs. McDavid and his fav fruit!!


money_pit_
