Edmonton Oilers“They embarrassed us three games in a row. That’s a tough one to swallow,” said defenceman Tyson Barrie, pointless in all three games, like so many others.
The Oilers entered the series four points behind Toronto and in second place. They exit the series 10 points out and in third.“I’d love to answer that question,” said Connor McDavid. “I’m not sure what it is.” In goal, the Leafs ran three goalies out on successive games and collected six points, while Edmonton’s two netminders were solved early and often in every game by Toronto shooters. Edmonton’s goaltending was exploited, plain and simple, as were a few other things about the men in orange.
“It’s still not a bad run — 11-5,” reasoned McDavid. “Not happy with the three losses, and the way they went on. But we can’t forget about some of the positives that we built. We put ourselves in a decent spot, and now we’re back in the thick of it.”“We have to sit down and talk about it, figure out what exactly happened, then take those lessons and move on,” the captain said.“That’s a real good dose of reality for us right there,” he said.

Spec “ICEBERG right ahead !! “
Spec Just like the series against Chicago, some fans said don’t read anything into it or Chicago was a bad match up for the Oilers. Crap, they have to pick up their play till the end of the season or else. Don’t want another coaching change.

Spec Mark, Great question to Tippett after he threw his players under the bus again. Funny how none of this on the coaching. EdmontonOilers
Spec I mean no matter who gets through to the final four is just going to be fodder for Vegas or whoever.
Spec It's all okay because the Leafs will go into their funk during the playoffs. It keeps the dream alive for both sides. 😂

Spec You can start by finding a goalie that can stop something smaller than a beach ball for more than one period. And a number one shutdown D. Oilers have none.
Spec That they're sh*t?
