00:00I was going to say with Edmonton, they're kind of strange, Edmonton,

00:04in a way that their games always end up 5-4 or 6-5 or something stupid,

00:10yet they often start off slow, right, where you're thinking,

00:14oh, maybe tonight's the night, actually, that they just play a normal type of game.

00:18So now they're down 2-0.

00:19We all know about the dreaded 2-0 lead in the National Hockey League,

00:22and we also know the Edmonton Oilers aren't going to panic being down 2-0.

00:27That's not Pickard's fault, that goal.

00:30There's Mark Stone, four goals in his last four games.

00:33Stone's a big-time playoff performer.

00:36And that was more of a defensive breakdown.

00:39Like, the Oilers are like the Pacers, you know what I'm saying?

00:42Like, it's the thing with the Oilers.

00:44They're super dangerous, and they can score a bunch of goals,

00:47and you know what I mean?

00:48They can score five goals in a period for real.

00:51They're like a football team.

00:52It's like, yeah, listen, they really could come back from 28 down

00:55in the fourth quarter, these guys.

00:56Like, they can score that fast.

00:58But they also can give up goals.

01:02Like, this is the Oilers' problem, right?

01:04Like, the Oilers are always down 2-0, aren't they?

01:07Like, you know what I mean?

01:08It's like, they're always down 2-0.

01:10Yeah, but we hit the over 1.5 for the first period of play.

01:13Yeah.
