I think Vancouver will have their hands full with Edmonton,but anyone who thinks the oilers are sweeping (or whatever)….you haven’t watched much Canucks hockey.
Agreed. Vancity will win at least 1 game.
Agreed, Canucks will win one.
@@steviej359 Or four.
Any Oilers fans that think it will be a sweep double don’t watch hockey.
I’m an Oilers fan and I know that we ALWAYS struggle to put goals on backup tenders. Demko being out is actually good for you guys at least for this round.
We struggled to put much by Dave Rittich last series.
The Oilers will tip through the Canucks like a January snot rocket through some t.p.
Han Solo: "Never tell me the odds!"
Especially when one did the Kessel run in less than 12 parsecs
The odds of Vancouver sweeping the season series at the beginning of the season were far worse… for the record. Statistics are simply that, statistics. Nobody picked Vancouver to sweep the season series either, yet it happened. Sometimes, a team just matches up well against another team. Are we going to ignore now all the statistics Vancouver has from the season series? Incredibly high shooting accuracy? Four lines that dominated play? A save percentage that defied any statistician? People that think the oilers are going to breeze past Vancouver are delusional!
If they can win a series with a 23 year old 3rd string goalie one game and come back from badly losing a game by the 3rd to winning in overtime one of the previous games then I like their chances a slight bit more than the projections portray them.
Now i see why people were saying these 2 Fan Bases are gunna cause CHAOS 😂
This will be a tough series to the end.
I think you need to give knoblauch a little more credit, sure he has Connor, Leon and Hyman but none of them were producing when he got there. He took a team in last place in the NHL to 46-18-5.
Don't forget about Paul coffey. Dude literally turned the entire defensive core around.
The model probably sees the difference is that both the Kings and Preds are defense first teams, the Oilers lit up the Kings while the Canucks struggled to put away the Preds.
@Siksdevman you don’t know the kings. You are a moron. They play a defensive style, most defensive team in the league
"The Canucks can't score" ... the people who say that did not watch how Nashville played. Saros was on fire and the Preds team had a suffocating playstyle that any team would have struggled offensively against. People forget the Canucks have had runaway goal games in the regular season.
The fact people think the Oilers are just going run over the Canucks makes me laugh. It's going to be a very high energy/speed series. I prefer the Canucks to win but I wouldn't mind seeing McDavid get a cup.
I like this take and I agree completely. The Nashville series was like a soccer match…one mistake and it’s game over. Vancouver played tight and disciplined. Oiler fans are in for a surprise when some of that goal scoring will finally come alive.
@chrisn2125 exactly. I'm in the wait and see category. Cuz who knows... maybe McDavid does what he does and we can't stop him. He is currently the greatest player to ever play so I wouldn't be surprised if he pulls a 2018 Ovi and rallies his team to take over the playoffs.
Canucks didn't "have" to play low scoring they were bullied into it.
Nashville didn't have the firepower so they played a more defensive game and the Canucks adapated to it. They weren't "bullied" into it.
@@adaire451 is that why Peterson struggled and missed wide open nets ?
@@patrickkasper3573 You do realize Petey is going to destroy the Oilers right?
@@johnjohnnston3498 like he destroyed the Preds? We will have to wait and see, you do realize we have two of the deadliest playoff performers in the last decade right?
@@patrickkasper3573three to start of so with Shaq hyman
This take is inflammatory and I say that as an Oilers fan.
It sounds like these models only care about offensive production and ignores defensive skill altogether. It's easy to calculate goal production but it's difficult to quantify positional play and strategy.
Close series. I’m saying Edmonton in 6 or 7 but who knows
Vancouver fans really uderestimate the oilers defence
i do think most people do that but, the kings are not known in the slightest to have good offence they just have one of the best defensive games in the lague
I disagree,no Canuck fan who really knows hockey is underestimating the oilers defense. We just understand that the Canucks defense is equal to the task if they play their game.
@@derekcox6531 in my opinion the Canucks vs Edmonton series will be much higher scoring than the Canucks vs Nashville series since that series was a defensive game and series against Edmonton will be much harder on the Canucks defense due to the Oilers all star offensive line up but in terms of Canucks offense it will be easier as Oilers defense is good but not as good as Nashville's since Nashville was getting infront of 20-30+ shots a night and the goalie that saved Nashville many times that series is better than Skinner from what i know, we wont really know how this series will go but all i know is that this series will be going to 6-7 games and its going to be some fast paced hockey.
our defence is way better even still
The league underestimates our defense... get ready to watch your boys get plastered into the glass. 😂
Canucks fan, I’m thinking oil in 7 not because of scoring or other factors like PK, I think Vancouver is just more physically beat up. Hugh’s took a lot of damage as did Garland and most of the defense. The oil are pretty healthy at present.
Every round is like a new season. That reasoning is so dumb.
You also leave out that LA was one of the best defensive teams in the NHL
Lol ahl kings play in the pacific and they were worse this year than last plus talbot rittich tandem is garbo they're a pretender defensive team with metric boosted by a weak division and conference
@@korbynshaggy666 weak division that won the cup last year! Yeah anyway u casual
@korbynshaggy666 the Avs and Knight walked to cup wins after winning the west
Yes they WAS😮
LA was good in spurts and absolute trash in other spurts..... first round they played like trash.
That "model" underestimates the Canucks defense and goal tending.
Smart money is on the OIl, my gut says the Canucks can pull off a win in 7. Go nucks!
good. give us underdog status. it will make our 4-1 win all the more sweeter
You made a good point in stating that Nashville's shot-blocking and clog-it-up style had an impact on the few number of shots the Canucks could have and the few goals that they could score. The thing is, I don't see the Oilers defence sacrificing their bodies blocking shots like the Predators did, and though Skinner has played very well in the second half of the season, he is not Saros, so to suggest the Canucks would just be steamrolled by the Oilers is just silly... I think the Oilers is the hotter team right now, but if the Canucks can play disciplined hockey and stay out of the box, I actually think the Canucks have much better than a puncher's chance to win this series.
This series is up for grabs for either team. I think one of the two is out for revenge. I don't know if that makes a difference, but I know it does for the Oilers. Does that translate into 4 dubs? We'll see. Going to be awesome hockey either way, and it's great for Canada.
We just gotta prepare mentally and phisically as a team and as fans to win the first game! Thats all we need to do, everything else does not matter atm
Im an oilers fan and of course i think oilers will beat them, but honestly the canucks have really done well this year, for a team that wasnt expected to even make the playoffs theyve really turned the team around. Give them some experience and a year or two and look out. Canucks fans dont just jump off the wagon if they dont go all the way the first year back. They dont call it the hardest trophy to win in sports for nothing
Since the All-Star break, one team in the West had a better record than the Oilers. That was the Nashville Predators, who the Canucks just eliminated. No one wanted to draw the Preds in the opening round, because they were so good. The Canucks were 4-0 against Edmonton during the regular season. The Oilers will be tough but don't count the Canucks out.
If we're looking at odds then Canucks is suppose to be a Bubble team like Detroit but we still beat the odds didn't we Canucks in 7 baby
Bubble teams don't win the division.. last year was last year
@@dopeboygangstayes, but they said the canucks would be a wild card team at best in the pacific this year, we won the division
@@bjballin whos they? And when was it said September 2023 🤣
@@dopeboygangstamost analysts had vancouver under vegas, edmonton, kings, and seattle last summer.
putting them as a wild card team, but then you look at the central with winnipeg, colorado and dallas, canucks were viewed to be an 8th seed finisher at best.
But if you’ve been watching the Oilers, it does seem like McDavid and Leon have a gear or two more, seems like they weren’t trying. seems like they were just pacing themselves through the series, if that makes sense
I say Oilers six or seven
it seems to me they get all their points on the PP... which is why their +/- is way below their point totals... (or they allow a lot of goals). Either way it tells me they are not a good 5 on 5 team and will need the refs to gift them a disproportionate amount of PP's like they did in the kings series.
@@prana16 I don’t know man, they played pretty good defence against the kings, it’s just Quinn Hughes that’s ur guy, one of the top guys to turn the puck the back the other way. and he seems like he already slowed down that last game.
@@prana16 seems to me thats how oilers were last year in the playoffs too ~
makes me think of the montreal canadiens making it to the finals in 2021 & they werent even a very good team ~
sort of a fluke to get into the playoffs but then . . .
I don't think 74% Oilers vs. 26% Canucks is right, but I do think that the Oilers are favourites to win. I'd be inclined to think its more of a 60-40 or maybe 65-35. Rick Tocchet definitely has it in him to out coach Knoblauch, and if the Canucks D can clog up the neutral zone to stop the speed of McDavid then there's definitely a Canucks win to be seen. Still, that does entail shutting down McDavid... which is a big ask of any D.
When demko then, Desmith. Both went down. I was thinking we were done. The game we are playing is goaltender reliant. I give us a 40/60 Edmonton. Unless swap that with Demko a potential Demko return
Odds are there to be beaten. Teams with the best odds don't always win, that's why the games are being played.
As a Canucks fan, I’m worried about lack of scoring. However, if they keep up the offensive pressure of late, the goaltending will take care of itself. I still predict Edmonton in 7. It up to Vancouber tonight prove me wrong. And I do predict at least two shutouts for Silov
no matter how this round plays out i am happy with what the canucks did this year. i would be a lot more confident if pettersson and mikheyev could find their game. i expect aggressive offensive play from petie not perimeter 2nd assists. if you got points for hitting the goaltenders logo mikheyev would lead the league.
I think people are going going to be surprised...again
Mcdavid is the X factor if he’s god level yeah I can understand these odds
Canucks have good goaltending and and I like being a underdog rember panthers vs bruins r1 last yearsoooo
They did not have to play that way to win they were playing the Preds who have gotten stomped by offensive heavy teams for the last few years
Canucks have a very balanced four lines and defensively now much better too. Canucks in six!
I think round two will be very exciting to watch. Back and forth. But I also think the Canucks are better on shutting down the Oilers 1 and 2 lines and have better goaltending.
🤣
@@bricklifeytube- you laugh, but didn't we beat the ever living soft cheeks out of the oilers already, while simultaneously beating them 4 times???? But you go ahead and rely on your own fantasies!
I disagree with the odds. It works in canucks favor to take the pressure off.
I think the Oilers will win but it wont be easy. Canucks are playing well this year.
These two teams will force each other to play their best and hardest.
Let’s Go Oilers!!! 🏒💥👍
It's all just talk until the puck drops,we will see what happens on tues.go Canucks go
How about if I think that the Oilers chances against Vancouver are terrible? GCG!
Lol. Sure Canucks have already achieved what they needed to this season to make this season a success, so it’s all gravy from this point on. If they lose, focus would turn to how to sustain their dominance in the Pacific and roster management in the summer etc. Nobody in their wildest dreams felt the Canucks had a chance at the cup this year so I take this all in stride. Oilers not so much because if they lose their season would be an unmitigated disaster to a level even the Leafs would not rival. So I’m very happy to have everyone say the Canucks have no chance. Although how division champion would have no chance against a rival they beat up on all season long is a bit beyond me. Tocchet has the Canucks playing exactly the type of smash mouth hockey they need to frustrate the Oilers and the Canuck offence hasn’t exactly disappeared either the pressure is on the Oilers; have they finally figured out how to win after 10 years of McDavid? They haven’t figured it out before, despite being picked for the cup year after year, but stranger things could happen who knows?
The athletic always just have the absolute worse articles and predictions I honestly can't stand them. Canucks sweeping the Oilers after they made those claims would be glorious
Knoblock is not to be underestimated. But I do agree canucks have an advantage there. I still think oilers will win.
You should go on the nuckhead podcast he predicted a good Canucks team
It's a 50/50 chance .. either you do or you don't, there is no other numbers. It's a coin toss. May the best Canadian team win. Canada wants the cup back!
Models are nice, but there's a reason they play the games...
Yes a huge debate at beginning of yr, why all the coaches? Well it paid off bigtime. The canucks made playoffs and won a round.😊
Canucks had a good year. Oilers in 5.
With respect: the Canucks are hosed
Canucks in 6 max… book it👊🏻💯
House money ... so the justification for the loss is set - bravo
re: the Athletic Model
Edmonton really has a better chance than Colorado or Dalllas or New York or fla? riiiiiiiiight
i do see Edm winning in 6 , but i think Vcr could upset
Diehard Canucks fan here....Oilers in 5, Canucks haven't been scoring since the all-star break, just sayin'.
Then you’re not a die hard Canucks fan. If you have that little faith then you obviously haven’t been watching this team this year.
What? It only takes one goal to win.
fake fan
Lmao ''according to the model'' 🤓.
This is for gambling people.
Wow... the series hasn't even started and the Canuckleheads are already whingeing.
Every time the Canucks have gone super far in the playoffs, except for 2011 they have been the underdog playing with house money. No one said the 94 team what's supposed to beat the Calgary flames we were supposed to be an easy out for the flames. The 82 team was not supposed to go anywhere and then they made it all the way until they got steamrolled by the Islanders.
Historically the Canucks have been a house money team when they do well let's just hope this trend continues.
BUT....The Canucks are the Favourites!!!.....Oilers are the Underdogs....Canucks are REIGNING PACIFIC CHAMPIONS AND SWEPT THE OILERS....Clearly they are the favourites.
The best offense and goalie wins this series.
Wait so you think both teams will win?
I thought defence wins championships…if that’s true Canucks have a more solid blue line and we’ll even beat the Oilers with our 3rd string goalie.
Captain obvious
The difference between the Oilers and Canucks is that Edmonton is Canadian and Vancouver is not. Let the uneducated make stupid remarks.
Play offs usually never turn out according to "numbers" The Canucks have home ice advantage. They have a slight advantage. I like the Canucks, if it gets to a game seven.
sorry lego oilers in six
idgaf about no chart, Canucks will persevere!
There's gonna be a LOT more open ice for the Canucks this series.
Exactly. Pettersson will definitely come alive in this series.
Nucks in 4 baby!!
this is gonna age terribly.
You're delusional kid
I like your enthusiasm but not likely in 4 games. Go Canucks go!
🙏🙏🙏
Agreed, the Canucks have nothing to lose. They made the playoffs when so many said they won't. Won the division when everyone was waiting for them to fall off. They beat the Preds when some were picking them to be upset. If they make past the Oilers it's just more toppings on the cake. They proved a lot of doubters wrong. This series the pressure is more on the Oilers since they are the ones penned at the very beginning of the season to be Cup contenders.
Canucks keep getting dissed and the Oilers keep getting all the love. So be it. Reminds me a little of the Broncos vs Seahawks in SB48
It’s going to hit like a truck
I’m glad we are under dogs , we are building something special here , where as Edmonton is do or die .
Canucks in 6....Athletic bankrupt and out of business in 2 years....
Oilers in 5! Look at the numbers!
Numbers mean nothing, everyone expected Predators to sweep, and said higher shot numbers = more scores when that was clearly not the case, its a 50/50 odds considering low shot numbers have been the biggest scoring, and the worse playing team was somehow better than a good playing team. I assume you havent watched the Preds vs Canucks all 6 games. Round 1 defied all odds, numbers, and statistics.
Yup look at the real numbers....0-4 ....Canucks in 6
Lets just say mcdavid and draisaitl arent gust nyquist and washed ryan orielly
Miller and Hughes aren’t washed up Kopitar and Doughty.
But the defense and goaltending on the oilers is nowhere near preds level. You forget the Canucks have goal scorers as well. Lindholm, Miller, Hughes, Zaddy, Boeser, Petey, Garly/DJ. The Canucks have great depth on all lines. If you think they are just gonna get run over then you just don't watch any hockey at all.

@@vawlkin1644 Yet we weren't expected to pass round 1 vs Nashville, odds mean nothing in this series so far, Preds were playing tightly as were the Canucks, if you watched the games they didnt give much room for more than 3 -4 goals a game, even less on some of them, it was a game of making sure the other team has less possession of the puck overall. Kings were okay vs oilers, but the game was not versing a tight/wrecking ball team, both the Oilers and the Kinds were more offensive in round 1, and the oilers are great at Power Plays, However Round 2 Canucks have a 90+% PK average in the series and wont give much wiggle room for an offensive team from what has already been seen.
