Dude! Thank you! I can't believe it took me so long to find a TH-camr who ACTUALLY gives analysis and tries to teach the viewers about the beauty of the game! I hope you become the Jomboy of the NHL!
The NHL really dropped the ball in only having three BoA games this year in the regular season. Really disappointing. This game was great. I was very pleased to see how the Oilers responded, but it would be nice to see how this team plays with the lead more often. Can’t always rely on your ability to come back.
It's a casualty of having an 82-game schedule with with 32 teams. As a result, teams will play some of their division rivals 4 times, and others just 3 times.The Islanders and Rangers are also only playing each other 3 times. The only solution will be to go to an 84-game season, and that probably won't be discussed until the next CBA.
Living in Edmonton I both hate and love the Flames. I hate them because they are our Arch Rival but love them at the same time because you always know every match up will be entertaining.
Same, but as a Flames fan. I will forever be pissed that you landed an (essentially) undisputed #1 player not once, but TWICE, but after such a long time of both teams being largely middling teams, it's definitely something when these teams play now.
Great game. As an Edmontonian, I was pleased with the outcome, but I have to say that I like Calgary this year as well. This one could have easily gone either way, and was fun to watch.
This was an entertaining game. Loved the long stretches without a whistle! Had me at the edge of my seat the whole way. I was disappointed Hyman didn’t get the hat trick though, he works hard every game and he totally deserved it.
as an Oilers fan, I would trade Coleman's kicked in goal being counted for Makar's offside goal not being counted, but neither series would've gone longer than one extra game :P
I was there, it was not fun to watch a 2-1 lead go away live. The most painful part is that we played a good game… at least we have a winning record and don’t need the points yet
i played pretty competitive hockey until i graduated college. i got away from the game for about 7 years as i was pretty worn down. Starting to skate and watch the NHL again. Love your recaps and takes on what is going on with teams from your pov. Keep up the great work, the videos are appreciated!
Flames fan here. You can't blame Markstrom for this one, sure he goofed up that McDavid goal but the real issue is our first line. We went from having arguably the best line in the league (Tkachuk, Gaudreau, Lindholm) to a first line that has the same amount of goals as Zach Hyman alone.
Please keep up the good work, not being able to have been catching the NHL besides the oilers I had no idea what was brewing in Toronto and you’re videos have been great.
Your channel has been quietly spitting fire this season. keep doing the same thing, i think you can really grow your channel with these types of videos. goes well for hockey nerds and newbies.
I think we need another video on McDavid taking it to the next level. Going from being an all-around player, to an all-around player with a focus on goals.... it's like he's pushed himself to yet another level of play
You should do a quick rundown video about how in the west 5-10 years ago a road trip through California was hell for a team. Now, a road trip through Alberta is hell for a team.
1:00 goal is because Bread lost his man in the dzone. Bieksa brought it up, you can see Hanafin pointing for Mangiapane to take Hyman but he's caught puck watching.
Home teams lost their game, not won. I like your commentary and super happy I found you!! Would love to know what you thought of Kanes goal that was disallowed and resulted in Oilers penalty for challenging. It was the 4th Goal for the oilers that game (This was the Oilers Vs Blackhawks on October 27th this year).
I think doing breakdowns post-jomboy has been tough -- you see a lot of copycats out there (even in the thumbnails) but youve found a really good niche and have made these breakdowns absolutely your own and hockey specific. Speaking of Jomboy I think the gy likes hockey but doesnt really watch the game so his hockey breakdowns always fall a little flat--youre kind of filling in this really nice gap between jomboy-esque context-laden breakdowns and the super timely Jens95 clip uploads. Please keep killing it!
I followed your Star Wars stuff for a while, then lost interest, but you've drawn me back, even if for something different. I love these short 'n sweet videos, well done.
Flames fan here. It definitely stings to lose to the Oilers but it was definitely a competitive and hard fought game. Sucks there’s only one more this season unless they meet up in the playoffs again
I watched the game, the pace was torrid. I like how my team played despite the loss. If you made one tiny mistake, one bobbled puck, one missed check, your stick or body didn't make it into a passing lane the other team had a scoring opportunity.
as an LA kings fan, i thought that last video was fine. it was a short vid about the leafs mistakes, not like you were doing a 10 minute game analysis and needed to cover everything from both teams.
This is a common happening with Barrie, more so on the PP. Flames outworked the Oilers, but fantastic Goaltending and the 2 best forwards on planet Earth win a lot of games)
As a preds fan, you should review the dumpster fire that we are. Nothing makes me more excited turning on a preds game knowing they are going to lose off of dumb mistakes 😃
Hi, do you have any advice to start from a small content created to gaining hundreds of subscribers a day? You’ve inspired me to start my own channel like yours. Please answer :)
I love that ppl think you do a dis-service to the opposing teams when talking about how the Leafs played bad. They on paper are a top 6 team and we just saw them give the ex-reigning Stanley Cup champs the biggest run for the money outside of the Avs. They should be steam rolling these teams and aren't which is a massive under performance on their part.
0:26 my conspiracy theory is Draisaitl is still injured from the playoffs. Skating very slow and awkward and doesnt even try to catch Backlund. Inexcusable lazy play unless he has an injury
Those chrome helmets look ridiculous, totally out of place, are seriously distracting and should be illegal. At least they keep the other team from reading their minds though.
Calgary's second goal was awful on edmontons part. They literally watch Luc walk in and didn't challenge him at all. Terrible play by everyone on the ice
Hmmm. Well I don't know how you define better. The team which has a higher win percentage to me is the "better" team. Guess we will see what happens in the third installment.
Surprised Eck didn't mention anything bad about Nazem Kadri in this video. Well, Kadri has been Calgary's best player so far so what else could a racist like Eck come up with? I'm waiting for Kadri to make a mistake so Eck could make another video about him highlighting him in a negative light.
Skinner has stopped 70 of the last 72 shots from the flames. We also still have Smith on LTIR who beat Calgary 4 games to 1 in the playoffs...And they aren't even the starter!!...Nothing shakey about that. Meanwhile Markstrom is now 3--7 in his last 10 games vs Edmonton with just under a 5.00 G.A.A,,,,, Vladar gave up 3 goals on his first 22 shots in game 1 this year. Marky gave up 3 on his first 25 shots. Are you sure it's not Calgary with the "shaky defence and uncertain goaltending.?"
Home team *losing* each game!
i was coming right for the comments! Pin nullified that. You win this time..
Yo why don't you do analyze of the Canadiens game?
Lol if you want to call the Battle of Alberta 'home' and 'away' games 😆 so much crossover being so close.
I like this because they won't be playing in Edmonton for the other BOAs lol I like Edmontons chance at taking this playoffs before the playoffs lol
@@chris.h4007 Because he’s a salty Montreal Canadiens hater

That's a by-product of it being against the Oilers. I was probably equally upset about our home loss to the Flames.

The away team won each game not the home team
What I hate is that Calgary was blaming marky after the loss all the fans were saying he sucked…typical Calgary Markstrom is the goat
It would’ve been better if Kadri and Kane’s scored for Hut purposes
Game still needs more fighting
I guess the Northern Division from COVID times where we got 9-10 BoA is supposed to make it up for it eh? Still wish we had 4 but what can ya do?
The title of this video confuses me.
silver bucket straight to the heart im ded
Great game. Outcome should have been different as it was decided by a couple of fluke goals by the OIlers
0:26 my conspiracy theory is Draisaitl is still injured from the playoffs. Skating very slow and awkward and doesnt even try to catch Backlund. Inexcusable lazy play unless he has an injury
It is normal that he is still slow...couldn't work in summer as usual...sometimes it takes up to one year to get your normal range if motion again...
I'm a proud canadian
Thank you, Oilers fan here! -10 and covered with snow already, but that has nothing to do with the game of course 😆
There was a lot of soft calls to both sides in this game, and markstrom better not make me say the line
Watch out for mtl if Caufield stays healthy
They made St Louis look awful!
Choosing to pass also committed his teammate to the offensive rush. Also, the move he made telegraphed his intent to pass. Poor choice.
Great point. Committing another man on the PK def didn’t help
Those chrome helmets look ridiculous, totally out of place, are seriously distracting and should be illegal. At least they keep the other team from reading their minds though.
brah you must get copy written every video
If McDavid doesn't touch the puck, the Oilers won't score lol
Terrible to be a Ontario fan this year
Calgary's second goal was awful on edmontons part. They literally watch Luc walk in and didn't challenge him at all. Terrible play by everyone on the ice

Better team won, as expected.

With Edmonton's shaky defense and uncertain goal tending Calgary would likely beat them in a 7 game series - this time.
Nah markstrom would of folded again in his classic playoff reputation against mcdavid, Hyman and Kane
