Singh sounded like he was fighting back tears….

I really don't get this take, and I've seen it again and again.  He's an Edmonton guy doing a broadcast in Canada.  How many Vegas fans are watching a Canadian feed?  If Vancouver made it to the playoffs and John/John were able to do that series, nobody here would mind Garrett being a Canucks homer.

Fantastic second round!! Oh the joy of watching both Leafs and Oilers fail together!

[J-Dizzle]

There was really no winning with this series. Unfortunately, I don’t think either Dallas or Seattle has what it takes to knock off the knights, but here’s to hoping.

Knights got those unreal expansion conditions…there’s a reason both expansion teams could be playing each other in the final.  We also got screwed out of Gilbert Perreault right from the get go.

Yep.

 

The fact that both teams are this good so soon shows the expansion draft rules were way too stacked in their favour.

Dallas done it once before and Seattle is as deep as Vegas albeit lacking star power.

[McBackup]

Hooray, now I can start cheering against the Knights again.

This is what bothers me. I’m ok if a franchise is competitive. But they shouldn’t be dominant.

Below average, but still an NHLer unlike any of the rest of the Oilers besides Ekholm.

Poor Ekholm, went from Nashville to Edmonton

To me it's not even the Edmonton homerism, though he does take that pretty far. I just can't stand the way he calls a game, and find him super annoying.

30 years of Bettman 

This!!!!

30 years without a Canadian team winning the cup.  Coincidence?

[*Buzzsaw*]

Well, I will admit I was surprised the Oilers coudn't do it this year.

 

I think the missing element was Kane... he was not a factor at all... either he is hurt or he just had a horrible playoffs.

 

And their defense just could not consistently deal with the Vegas forecheck... they were scrambling too much.

 

The Golden Knights are a very good team... last year they didn't make the playoffs, but the previous four years they have been right there.

 

With the Oilers gone, my prediction is an Eastern team will win it all.

 

I don't think Vegas or either Seattle/Dallas can beat Carolina/Florida.

Maybe if McDavid scores 200 points next season they’ll make the finals! 

Will still end up only a +6

150 points season!?!? Who cares! Second round exit embarrassed by Vegas...that's what the season will be remembered as

[Smashian Kassian]

Feel a bit for Skinner, didn't have a good playoffs but really the problem is not having the confidence to start the guy your paying 5M to be your starter.

Someone please get Juice away from these jackasses... they're corrupting him.

As long as the Canes win I’m happy.

Jealous of such a young franchise with it's fourth conference final I guess

You can be a homer like Joe Bowen in Toronto. But he’s still a pro. And he tells it like it is. I don’t mind listening to him. In fact he’s better than Cuthbert IMHO.
