Literally everytime

    Are the oilers a “home team”? They looked great in Edmonton I felt but the last couple games just outclassed in Florida.

    Happy they got the win last night though.

      The Oilers are actually quite a strong road team this year. 6th overall in the NHL.

      The Panthers and Oilers have very similar home records (only 1.5 games apart I believe).

      I think Game 3 was definitely in favor of the Panthers and G4 you could probably say it was evenly split if you go period by period.

      It’s been a really tight series though … my heart might not survive it.

    That’s muh team.

    I’ve found that the best way to cope as an Oilers fan is to be less emotionally invested, and more be curious about how things are going conceptually. Oh nice, we won! Or we lost, that’s too bad.

    Any stronger emotional commitment is just not advisable, until the team makes consistent, committed effort a part of their identity.

      Careful, you might err the other way and get your hopes up for a cup after the Presidents trophy for best regular season of all time just to watch them bounce out in the first round.

      May still be a bit salty about Marchand missing the breakaway that year but scoring this series, in a dirty Floridaman jersey no less
