*WARNING, THIS IS A VERY SPITEFUL NON-PG RATING, DO NOT PUT THIS IN RATEGAME LIVE NICK* Dear Stan Bowman, You stupid nepo baby piece of shit. The entire hockey world has just witnessed what I have always known. On top of being a total piece of shit who got away with letting multiple players get sexually assaulted and letting the assaulter walk free and assault a high school kid (THAT BLOOD IS ON YOUR HANDS), you’re fucking clueless. The Ducks exposed your horrendous roster construction You were gift wrapped a perfect situation in Chicago and you would’ve fucked it up if not for the emergence of a goalie you didn’t acquire. Now you get handed another amazing situation with the best contract in NHL history and YOU STILL FUCK IT UP. You coast off the achievements of your dad and don’t know shit. You deserve to rot in hell, but you getting exposed as both evil and idiotic is good enough for now. That’s a lie. I won’t be fully satisfied until you are banished from the sport. Good riddance

There is no words to describe the feeling I have right now. Terrible showing from our leaders, no adjustments. Podolzkin the only one who wanted to he there. Everyone else was counting down the moments till they can go golfing. I hate the management man, we need to clean house. Nurse should never play another NHL game, and dont get me started on the goalies. I hate this fucking team man.

They said Ducks fans shouldn’t watch this series! They said this experienced Oilers team would make short work of the Ducks! Well, looks like they were wrong! Anaheim takes their first series win since beating the Oilers in 2017 thanks to an amazing team effort! We are the Ducks and the world is our pond!

Smiling through it all! Can't believe this is my life! VICTORY DUCKIES! 9 LONG PAINFUL DEPRESSING SAD YEARS SINCE A PLAYOFF SERIES WIN AND 8 SINCE BEING IN THE PLAYOFFS AND WE TAKE OUT THE OILERS IN 6. How amazing is that. Love this team and they played their best game of the series tn when it mattered the most. On to round 2! 👏

i took my good friend gos(who is mentioned in a separate review) to the watch party of this game but he was sad after ☹️it was his first ever oilers thing ever

These past 48 hours have been horrible

Damn, honestly I don’t know what to think what to say how to say it but this season was destined to disappointment. Anything other than a championship or it is a failure but to come up with a pathetic season. Injuries, defensive struggles ALL SEASON. Let’s trade the goalie to fix our defence??????? Not just that we include one of our better dmen in that trade????? I don’t know this organization feels poverty. I don’t care what anyone says we have litterally the two best players in the NHL. We have the best offensive dmen in the NHL. And no one can produce ever. So many problems so frequent, nothing ever clicks all at once. It took them like 60 games into the season for them to finally win 3 in a row. The only reason why it isn’t a 0 is because my bank account won’t be buying playoff tickets since we are done.

bonus points for high scoring game, but MID

The younger teams are now taking over in these NHL playoffs. What a performance by the Ducks to eliminate the two time Stanley Cup final playoff team. They are really strong together as a team offensively but also defensively. Connor McDavid just looked so out of it, almost like he didn't want to be there. Draisaitl carrying the team like he usually does but was not enough to beat Anaheim. If Edmonton wants to keep McDavid, they're gonna need to fix the coaching staff and the defensive players because its just atrocious at this point. Why is McDavid on the first penalty kill. That says something.

The ducks win the series after dominating the for the first time this series

The Oilers defense is horrendous. That's what lost them the series. Could not stop the Ducks from scoring at all. The Ducks are a solid team, but I don't think they make it far once they play a competent defense.

Quack! Quack! Quack! Quack!

Quack Quack! The Ducks have moved onto the second round! Dostal played well and the offense got some pucks to fall in. Poehling lets talk about him because I dont think this team is where they are without him. I think that Zegras trade was win win.

As a Calgary fan... Hahahahahahahahbababababababa goodbye Edmonton!!!!!!! But on a serious note it was obvious they were not at 100% this series after the 4 nations, Olympics and 2 cup finals runs in 2 years you gotta be exhausted and it's obvious that they were. Same reason Florida didn't even make it this year. But we're going to see an all new team cup final for the 2nd time since 2020. This was tough for Edmonton but good to see the effort regardless and this has been an exciting ducks team to watch.

Well, what can you do. Optimism can only take you so far. The Ducks were a better team all around. Better goalie, stronger offence. All one could do was hope for the best. Such a fall from grace is honesty sad, but let’s hope next year is the year of McJesus.
