00:00The Oilers are the first team to get themselves into the Final Four of the Stanley Cup playoffs.
00:06They are in the Western Conference Finals.
00:08They take the Vegas Golden Knights out in five games.
00:11Last night, what a change from what we're used to in an Edmonton game.
00:16Well under the total.
00:17In fact, scoreless, through 60 minutes, they go to overtime where your old friend from the Penguins,
00:26is Kasperi Kapanen breaking the ice and sending Edmonton through to the West Finals on ESPN.
00:34Right in front of their goalies.
00:35Guys are sacrificing themselves right now in overtime.
00:37Todd Colson finds Dreisaitl, sets up Nurse, shoots.
00:41Stay made by Hill.
00:42He does a snow angel in the blue paint.
00:44It's on the goal line.
00:45Score!
00:46It's over.
00:48The series is over.
00:50The Edmonton Oilers win it in overtime.
00:56Oh man, I love it.
01:02Cash money, son.
01:04Same day cash.
01:06JG Wentworth.
01:07Cash for them.
01:08What a job.
01:10Vegas finished.
01:11Edmonton moves on in five games where they will await the winner of Dallas and Winnipeg
01:15in the West Finals.
01:16Now, I got a couple from McDavid here for you.
01:20For a guy whose team just won in five games, he was in some kind of move.
01:25He is all business, Connor McDavid, when it comes getting back and winning the Stanley
01:29Cup.
01:30First, everybody killed this Stuart Skinner, including me, that he's a hack, that he stinks.
01:36Right.
01:36That had shutouts in games four and five.
01:39Here's the first one from McDavid.
01:41I guess you could shut up about our goalie.
01:43Well, hopefully it shuts a lot of people up that we're talking about him, first and foremost.
01:48But, you know, we've always had belief in him, you know.
01:54Comes in and pitches two shutouts.
01:56Can't say enough good things.
01:57To see Casparica and then getting the winning goal in overtime is a great illustration of
02:02the depth of the team.
02:03Absolutely.
02:04Absolutely.
02:05You know, a guy that didn't start the series playing, you know, comes in and is asked to
02:11play in a big role.
02:12Um, and, uh, and finds a way to get a goal there.
02:17A huge goal.
02:18No, I'll give this guy credit.
02:21Like, he's always, uh, he, he comes across as like just doldrums and like he's, it's all
02:27a pain in his ass.
02:28But he actually always stands there and takes it.
02:33The guy does it every night.
02:35He's the superstar of the franchise.
02:38He is the Derek Jeter of the Yankees, of the Oilers, right?
02:42Like, same thing.
02:43McDavid is the face.
02:45He always is front and center.
02:47He doesn't want to do any interview ever, but he does all of them.
02:50And he just answers the questions.
02:52And he's as vanilla as they come.
02:54But he, I'll give him credit.
02:55He does it.
02:56He always does what he has to do.
02:58Well, he wasn't as, uh, vanilla with this next one.
03:01Because I think that sometimes the Edmonton media, uh, I mean, they're probably painful
03:06for him to deal with on a daily basis, asking the same questions over and over.
03:11It ain't New York.
03:12It ain't New York.
03:14Uh, but they, you know, that's all they have.
03:16So they just hound them all day long.
03:18Here's McDavid being asked about the Oilers defense again for like the 900th time.
03:24Meanwhile, they've made deep runs the last two years in the playoffs and they're halfway
03:27to a cup again this year.
03:28There's been a natural progression over the last couple of years.
03:32Have you seen that the way that you guys defend and feel more comfortable defending
03:36as a group?
03:39I mean, how many times are we going to answer this question really?
03:42Like, honestly, uh, that's frustrating that you keep, that we keep talking about this.
03:47We can defend.
03:48We can, um, you know, we've showed that time and time again, you know, come into a, a tough
03:54building, um, and when a one nothing game, when it matters most, um, we can play that
04:01way.
04:02We can score goals.
04:03We can, whatever it takes, we can win games.
04:06Um, it's so obvious.
04:08I mean, like, it's so painfully obvious that they can't defend as they keep going to the
04:14Western conference finals and the Stanley cup final.
04:17Like, honestly, dude, like sharpen up your question skills.
04:22Like, you think you could seriously win like this?
04:26Yeah, we just did one.
04:28Nothing.
04:28Have a sandwich.
04:29You're a loser.
04:31What kind of loser ass question was that?
04:33It really was.
04:34It was like, you're the loser of the night.
04:36Go have a drink and a sandwich.
04:38Honestly, you need it.
04:40Did you see him look at him?
04:41He's like, are we, are we going to do this?
04:43Are we really going to do this one?
04:44One nothing on the road to win a series.
04:46Are we really going to do this?
04:48I mean, honestly, like at some point, it's just, you're a, you're a gigantic guy.
04:52Mail Organ of the Month Club.
04:53Carver High, get out another locker, get him a key, get him a parking spot, get him a free meal.
05:00We got to put him in there at the Mail Organ of the Month Club.
05:03The reporter in the locker room last night in Las Vegas asking Connor McDavid stupid questions.
