Wish we were , our boys came home about 2 months ago all excited about the oilers (actually I think they were calling them the gas team , they are 10 & 7 ) , it would be a great experence for them .  We live in a small town in Northern Ont, so I guess it will be the T.V and popcorn for us. As our 3 yr old says : go guys go !!!!!

I personally think the new NHL rules changed the way games are played.  Therefore, it's not necessarily true anymore to rely so much on old, experience veteran players.  The rules today demands younger, faster players/skaters whom are hungry to win!\n\nI personally think the Western Conference Finals will be the Sharks and Oilers.  The winner of this match will take the CUP!!!

i did.  not an oilers fan but gotta admit they played great.  the game was exciting as i expected it to be.  i am cheering for sj to beat nashville. i am cheering for detroit.  don't get me wrong, i like edmonton and give them great respect but i really think detroit will win this series in six or seven games.

Im sure but think it was in the 70s they said during the match tonight. i think it was 1972 when celtic got to  European Cup semi-final. and rangers won the European Cup-Winners' Cup

I would love to see the Oilers win the Stanley Cup, It's been too long since the cup's been back in Canada.

The NHL doesn't require any captains or assistants, its more of a title of recognition for the leaders on the team.  Some teams rotate captains and have permanent assistants.  The Rangers didn't have a captain this year because even though Jaromir Jagr was clearly the best player, he wasn't the greatest leader, since his english is pretty crappy.

Yes, and it was amazing.  The Oilers fought to the very end, but the Canes managed to hold on and take the Cup.  It was a classic series, and Game 7 may go down as one of the greatest ever, in my book.  Kudos to the Oilers for not giving up when Dwayne Roloson went down.  They could have given up after getting blown out in Game 2, but they fought back and pushed Carolina deep into the third period of the final game.  \n\nAnd yes, there were hockey fans long before the 'Canes came to Carolina, myself being one of them.

1.4% of the series that have been 0-3 in NHL history have ended with the '0' team victorious.

didnt buffalo, ottawa, new jersey & carolina end up with about the same amount of points during the regular season?\nSo it shouldn't be surprising that the lower seeded sabres beat the sens 7 it shouldnt be surprising that carolina beat new jersey, whats surprising to me is the fact that nobody gave buffalo a chance except buffalo fans. The sens are perennial chokers  when it comes to playoff hockey & i think new jersey is getting a bit too old

Wow!  That was one of the best games that I've ever seen!  The Oil just came in and took over the game right after the Samsonov goal.  And I loved every minute of it!  \n\nSan Jose looked upset and distraught.  I really think the Oil could take this series!\n\nGo Oilers Go!

Terrific series!  Terrific postseason!  Full of exciting moments.  Hats off to the Hurricanes, they certainly derserved it.  Very proud of the Oilers.  I really wanted them to win.  But they made for a tremendous Game 7.  Was nice to see Rod Brind'Amour hoist the Cup. \n\nBut now I'm sad that my life will be NHL-free for the next  4 months . . .

Tampa Bay beat Calgary in 2004... Mighty Ducks didn't make the finals that year. I think they did in 2003, when they lost to the New Jersey Devils.

Yes it's true that Montreal got whooped, but they were playing better in the first few minutes than Toronto...haha.  Well, I have to say that it seemed like one team was favoured over the other in terms of the calls...completely obvious if you ask me.  I was hoping that the Habs were gonna win, but Toronto was the better team that night.  Two many bounces on the ice that weren't going Montreal's way!!!
