Ouch.

I love this team. Didn't quit. Not even in the dying seconds.

Soundwave · 04-01-2008, 10:31 PM

Solid finish to the season at home.

Flames got some lucky bounces IMO they were outplayed, we just didn't get the bounces tonight.

Proud of this team fighting tooth and nail despite all the injuries and more cheapshots on Hemsky.

Good run, but at the end of the day...FAIL!

JYUBiznass · 04-01-2008, 10:31 PM

I don't care how many people say roloson played a good game...there's a fine line between winning and losing and if you can't make a save off tanguay like that..you don't deserve to be in the NHL....it's like that everywhere you go...and he really pissed the tank on this one...

true roloson may not win games..but he certainly isn't helping the team to not lose

runeeres · 04-01-2008, 10:31 PM

What a great effort. They deserve all the credit in the world. I can't wait for next season, and eliminating Vancouver from the playoffs.

Fishy Scales · 04-01-2008, 10:31 PM

Tonight was just bad luck, including the Nashville game, which is always a frustrating way to lose out. But I'm so thankful for this run that I still feel more pride than disappointment.

You're not sorry. But I'll tell you what. The Flames aren't going anywhere in the playoffs.

Lobotomizer* · 04-01-2008, 10:31 PM

I love these guys.

Being an Oiler fan is fun again and things are only going to get better.

HemskytheBeaut · 04-01-2008, 10:31 PM

well, I will be happy if the Oil can ruin the Canucks chances

That's the way she goes. The ****in way she goes.

State of Hockey · 04-01-2008, 10:32 PM

The Oilers and Oiler fans can be proud of what they did this year. Keep your heads high.

Real_Estate-Agent · 04-01-2008, 10:32 PM

What a fun game to watch..............

Actually, I love the new & improved Oilers.................

nosaj · 04-01-2008, 10:32 PM

****in stol needs to go, i dont want him here next year even if he performs. He sucked for the last 81 games and has been nothing but a penaltmachine., **** him i want him out i would rather have another checker than him

Cerebral · 04-01-2008, 10:32 PM

Hell of a late run, I'm damn proud of the team. We're not going to make it into the playoffs but at least we have something to build on for next season.

No ****. What the **** was he doing on Nolan's goal?

millpoo · 04-01-2008, 10:32 PM

Just no bounces around our net tonight really. A couple for Calgary, especially on the Nolan goal.

Here's looking forward i guess...'sniff....

Austroilia · 04-01-2008, 10:33 PM

Considering most people had us finishing bottom 3, and we wree still in until the death despite loosing some big names, I'm at least a little happy. Dissapointed sure, but things could have been so much worse. Next year boys, next year

Let's just get rid of him, and look forward to next season. Good times ahead for the Oilers!

OmegaTheory · 04-01-2008, 10:33 PM

Oh well a way better finsh then we all thought.

OilerLord · 04-01-2008, 10:33 PM

Considering the boys made it interesting all the way to game 81 is a huge victory.

Burke can now choke on his non top 5 pick.

Not wanting to take anything from Calgary's win, but holy crap did they get all the bounces tonight.

Goal 1 = Off of our defenseman and in.

Goal 2 = An incredibly lucky bounce off of Roloson's stick.

Goal 3 = Multiple deflections land right on that slug Nolan's stick.

unbelieveable...

Frisbee97 · 04-01-2008, 10:33 PM

I love my oilers i cant wait for next season to watched the more experienced kids run the show

Lessy · 04-01-2008, 10:33 PM

Great run while it lasted. Made the stretch run enjoyable and actually worthwhile to watch which was a definite improvement from last year along with the fact that there are actually bright spots heading into next season.
