A few days ago I said I cant see Stuart Skinner as a Stanley Cup winning goalie…well I ate my words the last two games he’s absolutely looked like a Stanley Cup winning goalie.

The penalty kill for the Oilers is what surprised me. Perfect against the Kings and the Stars, defense are great, Stuart Skinner redemption after benching, and don’t forget Kris for his calming presence.
yes.. i fully agree.. been 9 years in Edmonton and 8 years of frustration..but a one line offence and all too often panicky dfence will not win the cup..but lets see..Paul is bent on proving wpeg wrong..
This puts Corey Perry in the cup finals 4 of the last 5 years. The man's had more chances to win in the dying embers of his career than most players ever do lol
Oilers stopped playing offence after the first period and still hung on to win. Skinner with the best game of his 2024 playoffs so far. McDavid with a highlight reel goal for the ages. Playoffs are absolutely nuts sometimes. GO OILERS GO!
Yeah, they did the wrong thing and still won. They need to learn the killer instinct. When they have a team down, hit them harder. Don’t let them back up. When they learn that they’ll be a much better team.
That's what been bothering me this whole playoff. When they're winning, they get comfortable and stop offensive plays. It's almost like they forget the best defense is a good offense.

@@nelsonmuntz9168Btw Edmonton holds the record on most penalties killed in the Stanley Cup Playoffs, after Dallas couldn’t score on numerous power play opportunities, let that sink in
Oilers Defense def increased to a high level like no one expected, not even me couple months back. Stars had no PPG in the series, they gonna shut down Panthers PP. Defense wins games. Dallas had 35 shots and 1 goal. Oilers had 10 shots and 2 goals. Oilers getting better every game learning from their mistakes like Leon said. 💪
As a swedish fan of oilers for 30 years + i can finally get a chance to see a final Stanley cup final against Florida in which my brother cheers for :) lets go oilers!
Nobody believed in these Oilers. They were suppose to lose to canucks because they couldn't beat them even once in regular season. They were suppose to lose to the HEAVY favorite Stars because Dallas was suppose to have better depth. Critics never accounted for the Oilers HEART!
@@timmononen8492 Tell that to almost every analyst saying stars in 5 or 6 seriously look it up almost every single one of the "experts" expected Dallas to win and they proved them all wrong
Honestly, watching latest NHL games gives me goosebumps... Here's the thing... I deeply admire players like Howe, Richard, Orr, Gretzky, Lemieux and many other LEGENDS of the game, but I have the feel that this is something crazy... It is not a new level of the game, it looks like a totlally different game... That speed, finesse, puck handling, stamina... Truly the COOLEST game on Earth...
That's at least the 3rd game Edmonton had 15 shots or less and won. 35 to 10? That's pretty good for a guy who was considered the reason why Edmonton would never make it to the finals.
Yeah , Skinner got a lot of criticism leveled against him ( incl. from me ) after those play off exits in the recent years. Good for him to not completely cave and go mad under this extreme level of attention on him. It probably would have only been even worse , would he be on MTL or TOR in the same situation. Let's see if he can repeat this in the Finals. History says North American goalies are heavily favored when facing Euro goalies in the Finals, but history also favores US teams when facing Canadians since over 30 years now when the J took over as commissioner.
Still means nothing. The most of the shots quality was low. Stars never were sophisticated in offense. Skinner's to meet tougher challenge by miles against Panthers who found the way to beat marvellous Shesterkin through sweat and blood.
@@Dr.Acula76 you mean a "playoff rookie" ? Because he debuted in the league way before last year ( in 2020-21 ) But you're right in the sense he didn't play in the 2022 playoffs , i messed that up , my bad , Smith & Koskinen played back then "Skinner" & "Smith" - my brain said : same guy ! 😅🤣
McDavid seems to be back to his playoff standard 110% strength. He seems to have healed fully right on time for the Stanley cup finals. Skinner was also on fire tonight which makes bringing home the Cup look very possible.
I feel bad Dallas lost with such a big effort, but as an American I still am happy to see a Canadian team back in the final round. That said, I still will probably root for Florida because they've had to put up with their state rival rubbing their cup wins in their face. If Edmonton wins, I won't be upset, I look forward to some good hockey!
@@jamietomas1550 not true at all - Vasilevskij, Shesterkin are way better than Skinner, but I can see, that he improved himself. Can't wait for finals, Good luck for both teams!
@@jamietomas1550dude, the Panthers have gone through some of the best goalies in the league: Vasy, Sway, and Igor. They should respect Skinner, but I doubt they fear him.
This is dream run by the Oilers. What a season, moved up from the bottom all the way to the finals. Good luck against the Panthers! Could be an epic final.
Even with Skinner’s awful start to the season, he vastly outplayed Oettinger all season (and I like Jake). Since Nov 11, Skinner had a top ten sv % and the sixth best GSAx. Oettinger’s GSAx in that time was 85th out of 86
YOu obviously dont know jack about hockey. Did you see any offensive pressure from Edmonton once they were in the lead. One man in...dump and sit back. Nuetral zone shut down and keep em to the outside. If they were tied and in a game one situation it would be way different. PRobably why your not a coach cause ya dont understand the game
Leafs fan here but I am soo happy for the oilers, edmonton is really Canada's team. Bring the cup home baby so Mcdavid can bring it home to Toronto 😂😂. Prob the closest will come to a cup here.
I'm guessing one can't take the body on McDavid because he'll just skate around them? I mean he just walks around everybody like its effortless. Crazy.

Trocheck, who was New York's top scorer, has 11 fewer points that McDavid alone. Everyone saying Florida will kill them are absolutely delusional. It will be a hard fought, 6-7 game series to the death.
@AnnoyinglyCharming Every team plays with intent to injure. Don't kid yourself.
So much for that Dallas "depth" we kept hearing about. Get to steppin' Stars!
When it comes down to it Dallas is a team that simply can’t dig 3 goals out of nowhere when it all matters.
F#$% off! Don't you worry, you will get hammered by Florida.
They did their job against the super tough teams like Knights and Avs. (btw, the same Avs that kicked butts of this great Oilers team). How many times can the team rise up?
Come back to tell us after they meet fresh and physical Cats.
@@NA-cd2eq The Oilers have improved greatly since their series against the Avs, though losing to the Avs is prolly a big part in what helped em get better, theyve really learned from previous mistakes
By watching Past three games, Dallas should have lost 1st round

Go Oilers, from a Canucks fan, bring it home
now this, my friends, is a true hockey fan, eh.
I would never dream that Skinner would be so helpful after so many struggles. He was one of the Edminton weaknesses but now he really stepped up! Happy to see it
Bring the cup back home to Canada

7:43 28 straight penalty kills! That's the stat of a Stanley Cup finalist right there.

Oilers Defense def increased to a high level like no one expected, not even me couple months back. Stars had no PPG in the series, they gonna shut down Panthers PP. Defense wins games. Dallas had 35 shots and 1 goal. Oilers had 10 shots and 2 goals. Oilers getting better every game learning from their mistakes like Leon said. 💪
As a swedish fan of oilers for 30 years + i can finally get a chance to see a final Stanley cup final against Florida in which my brother cheers for :) lets go oilers!
Nobody believed in these Oilers. They were suppose to lose to canucks because they couldn't beat them even once in regular season. They were suppose to lose to the HEAVY favorite Stars because Dallas was suppose to have better depth. Critics never accounted for the Oilers HEART!
I believed even when they were behind Arizona
You're being sarcastic right? Oilers have been over hyped by the sports media if anything.
@@timmononen8492 Tell that to almost every analyst saying stars in 5 or 6 seriously look it up almost every single one of the "experts" expected Dallas to win and they proved them all wrong
No... They never accounted for the oilers evil genius Kris Knoblach
There is on paper and there is on the ice( or field depending on the sport). That is why they play the game.
McDavid is by far the best hockey player in the world right now.
🚨 Edmonton Oilers standin' on business!! Bring the Stanley Cup home boys 🎉🇨🇦
Gratz to the Oilers, a salute to the Captain, and a standing ovation for Skinner. These guys are good.
« Dallas in 4 » 😂
Dallas in 9. 😂
Boston in 5.
From Barcelona congratulations!!
I am very, very happy and now only win 4 games and Stanley Cap will be in EDMONTON!!!! GO, GO GO
What a finals we’re going to get with Edmonton and Florida. May the best team win. Go Oilers
Honestly, watching latest NHL games gives me goosebumps... Here's the thing... I deeply admire players like Howe, Richard, Orr, Gretzky, Lemieux and many other LEGENDS of the game, but I have the feel that this is something crazy... It is not a new level of the game, it looks like a totlally different game... That speed, finesse, puck handling, stamina... Truly the COOLEST game on Earth...
That's at least the 3rd game Edmonton had 15 shots or less and won. 35 to 10? That's pretty good for a guy who was considered the reason why Edmonton would never make it to the finals.
Right?
Yeah , Skinner got a lot of criticism leveled against him ( incl. from me ) after those play off exits in the recent years.
Good for him to not completely cave and go mad under this extreme level of attention on him.
It probably would have only been even worse , would he be on MTL or TOR in the same situation.
Let's see if he can repeat this in the Finals.
History says North American goalies are heavily favored when facing Euro goalies in the Finals, but history also favores US teams when facing Canadians since over 30 years now when the J took over as commissioner.
@@tk80mufa5Recent years? He was a rookie last year
Still means nothing. The most of the shots quality was low. Stars never were sophisticated in offense. Skinner's to meet tougher challenge by miles against Panthers who found the way to beat marvellous Shesterkin through sweat and blood.
@@Dr.Acula76 you mean a "playoff rookie" ?
Because he debuted in the league way before last year ( in 2020-21 )
But you're right in the sense he didn't play in the 2022 playoffs , i messed that up , my bad , Smith & Koskinen played back then
"Skinner" & "Smith" - my brain said : same guy ! 😅🤣
McDavid seems to be back to his playoff standard 110% strength. He seems to have healed fully right on time for the Stanley cup finals. Skinner was also on fire tonight which makes bringing home the Cup look very possible.
I feel bad Dallas lost with such a big effort, but as an American I still am happy to see a Canadian team back in the final round. That said, I still will probably root for Florida because they've had to put up with their state rival rubbing their cup wins in their face. If Edmonton wins, I won't be upset, I look forward to some good hockey!
Best of luck in the Finals - from Vancouver
Thank you from an oilers fan. I was cheering my guts out for you guys in 2011. Wish us luck.
Edmonton is going where no Leaf team has gone in 58 years.
Congratulations Oilers! from Vancouver, No matter Canucks or Oilers love to see one of my favorite Competing for Stanley
So happy for Edmonton fans
Literally nobody had Skinner out dual Otter on their bingo card. He’s arrived
Full props to Dallas. They played their soul out.
Hated McDavid till this goal and pass. The most beautiful goal I’ve ever seen, and one of the nicest pass!
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Well your not stupid. Your slow
That Edmonton crowd was BUZZIN, always nice to hear a crowd that loud
From a Wings fan, Go Oilers! Win that cup!
As a Habs fan who also just happens to share a b-day with Steve Yzerman, I'm with you all the way!
Skinner is not that simple, Panthers should not underestimate him
Yeah the Panthers have not faced a good goalie yet in the playoffs, they better watch out.
@@jamietomas1550 not true at all - Vasilevskij, Shesterkin are way better than Skinner, but I can see, that he improved himself. Can't wait for finals, Good luck for both teams!
@@jamietomas1550dude, the Panthers have gone through some of the best goalies in the league: Vasy, Sway, and Igor. They should respect Skinner, but I doubt they fear him.
@@dannik9932 I was fully sarcastic my guy. I am a Panthers fan, we went through the gauntlet of goalies already, Skinner is nothing new.

You know, I never thought of Skinner as a super goalie. He was decent, fairly reliable... but BOY did he elevate his game in this series.
Oilers are for real 👀🏒
It’s nice to see one of McDavid have one of his McSlick goals, and in this game.
Gonna love watching McTkachuk lift the McCup while Edmonton watches on.
@@wayne6777gotta love watching Matthew tkachuk lifting the cup while Connor Mcdavid watches, knowing he is so much better than the entire team.
Thanks for the epic season Stars! Sad it ended this way but at least we were close. Good luck in the finals Edmonton!
Well done, Oilers! I hope you make all the way!
as an oiler fan: great series and thanks again to the stars for eliminating vegas lol
This^
i think oilers can beat anyone except vegas so thank god they are out lol
Should thank vegas for blowing their last game against the DUCKS that put them into the much harder division instead of the much easier bracket lol.
Skinner played some fantastic goaltending this game, 1 goal from 35 shots is exactly what we needed from him.
As a leaf fans I’m rooting for the oilers
How can you cheer for another Canadian team 😂
This is dream run by the Oilers. What a season, moved up from the bottom all the way to the finals. Good luck against the Panthers! Could be an epic final.
Skinner outgoalied Otter in an elimination game as everyone predicted
Even with Skinner’s awful start to the season, he vastly outplayed Oettinger all season (and I like Jake). Since Nov 11, Skinner had a top ten sv % and the sixth best GSAx. Oettinger’s GSAx in that time was 85th out of 86
McDavid needs to disinfect those mitts.
If Edmonton allows this kind of offensive pressure with Florida, we will be looking at 40+ shots a game for them.
YOu obviously dont know jack about hockey. Did you see any offensive pressure from Edmonton once they were in the lead. One man in...dump and sit back. Nuetral zone shut down and keep em to the outside. If they were tied and in a game one situation it would be way different. PRobably why your not a coach cause ya dont understand the game
No one can say the Dallas didn't go for it, gg guys. LETS GO OILERS!!! What a goal from McDavid and what a game from Skinner LETS GOOOOO!!!!!!!!
Oilers baby! Skinner so proud of you! Stole us a game!
Congratulations! The NHL needs this. They need the face of the league in the finals! This helps make the NHL more popular!
Oilers are such a weird team, somehow they move on to the finals with a game where they get 10 shots.
Not the first time it's happened these playoffs remember they won Game 4 vs LA with only 13 shots
And they scored on 2 of their first 3! 😆
WHAT A GAME BY SKINNER! LETS GO CANADA FINISH THIS RUN - HABS FAN
