lol, even when OG Skinner resurfaced, Dallas' goaltending decided to match and one up.
I had a discussion with friends whether pulling Oettinger was the right call, despite 2 goals in 2 shots. Two broken defensive coverage, not entirely soft goals. 2 goals isn't really that big of a lead in today's game especially with so much time left to play. In hindsight, DeSmith didn't look ready to play, that 3rd goal was so soft, what a dagger.

Bailing on Oettinger was insane IMO, especially when it was clearly a last second decision. He called a time out, then w hen it was over Oettinger was skating back to the net and the coach was like hey, come back, I'm pulling you! And then DeSmith is like wtf? Barely made a save on the first shot, and let in the next one. You don't have to call a time out to pull the goalie, you can do it and they'll give them a moment to prepare.
That comes across as mindless coaching, or at least a desperate all-in move.
But maybe you keep Oetter in there and he doesn't let that third goal in, which really was a dagger despite them making a game out of it later on.

DeBoer throwing Oettinger under the bus bigtime in postgame interview:
“I didn't blame it all on Jake, but the reality is if you go back to last year's playoffs, he's lost six of seven games to Edmonton. And we give up two goals on two shots in an elimination game," DeBoer said via Mark Lazerus of The Athletic. "That's a pretty big sample size."

That relationship is probably gone ... even if DeBoer is 75% right, when you take it public, it's over.
Nill just signed Otteginger to an 8 year $66M contract in Oct 2024.
This might become a big war between DeBoer and Nill and result in the team imploding.

I'm honestly really disgusted with that fuck. You never throw your goalie under the bus. I learned that in fucking Tom Thumb hockey.

Edmonton has experience and are more hungrier. They also have a better version Skinner this year. I think Edmonton's got it...

edmonton has a great chance. all the big players are contributing, unlike when the canucks are in the playoffs and there are always some high paid players doing nothing.

I'm still neutral when it comes to the Oilers winning. Would be nice to see the cup come back to Canada but also wouldn't affect me too much to see Panthers repeat. I'm just here to appreciate good hockey ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ | |

I mean it is kind of annoying Canucks can't get it done, but it beats having another hardcore fanbase rubbing it in for the next decade, as opposed to no one talking about it when a team with no fanbase wins it.
That's my reason anyway.

Panthers for the repeat. Oilers already had it good with four 1st overalls in 5 years. They bragged enough about that, don't need them to brag about anything else more.
