Skinner STOLE this one, the best oiler tonight by far
20 less shots but we win! Lol I'll take it
He honestly did bounceback after game 2
Skinner didnt have to face many grade A shots. It was the defense clogging the lanes that was the difference.
@@jaydee8864 Yup. Stu was a big part of it obviously, but these Oilers know how to clog up the slot. The Kings kept getting it into the zone, but the Oilers never let them setup anything dangerous.
Да , хорошо отыграл
Wow: 13 to 33 shot's. This game was won by Skinner! Honest respect for this incredible performace!
@SevenAcid No - A shot on goal is any shot that reaches the goaltender or scores. Shots that are blocked, go wide or high or hit the posts are not counted. It's clearly defined - that's what the stat reflects. There are other, possibly better, ways to measure offensive activity overall, but that's a separate issue.
The vast majority of the shots were perimeter shots because the Oilers always had sticks in lanes and were blocking shots. Skinner played great, but the big forwards like McDavid and Draisaitl and some of the depth D like Desharnais and Kulak were absolutely instrumental in this win too, as they committed themselves to responsible team defense. Desharnais for example would use his size and reach to stifle kings players in the corners and would sacrifice his body on the boards, and McDavid was pickpocketing rushing players and getting his stick in the way of shots. There were only 2 or 3 really good chances the Kings had and Skinner brushed them aside.
He means they literally add shots and take them away all game the person doing the shot counting has no idea what's going on
😮 0:52 0:52 🎉@humaneing2420
@odo🎉aceroftheneoromanempire7178
Oilers badly outshot 13-33 somehow manage to pull off a shutout 1-0. Skinner came up huge, looked really sharp tonight, I think thats a huge confidence boost.
It was 1-0 after 9-15 shots and then the Kings struck 4-18, yet the Oilers had the best scoring chance.
Who says Oilers can't win a low scoring game!?!? SHUTOUT SKINNER!!! This was a very mature win by Edmonton. PERFECT on the Special Teams battle.
А кто это говорит ?
@@KingHenselt It's kind of implied because Oilers are always said to "out score their problems".
COILERS 💩
In the past the Oilers usually lost low scoring games. 2024 Oilers seem different. They look better this year.@@KingHenselt
Let's go Skinner, he got us this game for sure! Haven't seen a performance like this in goal in a while
It’s been a shockingly long time since Edmonton had a goalie that could actually steal games when it mattered
@@jasondashney Back to the Dwayne Roloson days eh
@@SaveznaRepublikaJugoslavija yup
Stuart Skinner has been on 🔥 this last 2 games. What a performance from him.
33-13 shots on net for Kings, desperate times for Kings. Rittich had an easy night, Stu turned into Grant Fuhr for tonight
Meh Oilers had more 5 alarm shots and Grade A scoring chances were almost the same. Oilers kept LA to Perimeter shots. But considering the softies Skinner can let in some nights it's not a bad strategy to just shoot from anywhere.
I kind of agree, but 1 goal on 13 shots is still good. My opinion might be coloured by the fact that Dave is a good person. He's super personable and does charity work and stuff.
Dave who? Sorry.i'm drawing a blank.
@@quincee3376 Rittich. They call him, "Big save Dave." He's no legendary wall, but a solid NHL goalie and all around chill dude.
@@rorylemke1088 thank you.
Cup contenders find ways to win games they don't have any business winning. Thank you Skinner for stealing that one.
Did you watch the entire game. Id hardly day they had no reason winning. L.A. couldnt do a damn thing. Edmonton had them on lock down. Shots were not even that good. Thats Edmonton showing confidence and domination
@@tylercurrie3800 Yeah I did. We limited LA to not too many Grade A shots but they still outplayed us. Anytime a team gets only 13 shots and nearly gets tripled in in that department, they don't deserve the win, regardless of defensive effort.
As a leafs fan, smartest move Hyman could have made for himself was leaving that disaster. A career year, and what looks like a real chance to go all the way! Someone get that cup back to Canada!!
Skinner won that game himself. Amazing performance!
This was what Edmonton hasn't gotten their last few playoff runs - the goalie stealing them some wins. They've had games the goaltender has been decent and they've won the games they should have, they've had games they should have won but the goalie cost them. But this is one they had no business winning, but Skinner shut the door. Best player for either team tonight, by far.
Oilers just pulled a Vancouver 😂
Shots don't matter anymore
Never did. Only goals matter.
Oilers aren't on their 3rd string goalie yet.
And Vancouver pulled and Oilers by coming back in the last 5 mins and winning in OT lol
As an Oilers fan, I do not expect to see this kind of score after one of our games. Skinner for the win. I'm shocked our boys only got 13 shots honestly.
The watch party in rogers place was lit! Everyone was booing Will Ferrell 😄
Skinner the hero of the match! 👑
King of the Coilers 💩
@@JesusFriedChristsure ok
@@JesusFriedChrist Take the L
Skinner was a wall tonight!
Finally Skinner gets the reward of a SO after standing on his head! Go Oil!
Skinner is a beast
the pucker factor was a 9/10 for this game lol
Oilers beat the kings at thier own game... defensive hockey. 💪
This is the Skinner the oilers need to win the stanley cup! seeing the past few games I was thinking no chance oilers win the cup... starting to think again.
Let’s go Oilers! Stu stole us this one!!
This was a defensive masterclass put on by the Edmonton Oilers and Stuart Skinner. And also a reminder of how important it is to perform when you finally get your chance on the power play. Kings fans now find themselves all but hopeless, and Edmonton is looking stronger than ever.
People like you are dumb as hell
Yah skinner did amazing but Edmonton’s defence was fantastic too. Kings played good too by not letting the oilers offence flourish
@@taylerthompson7559I think it’s more of Kings looked good by staying out of the sin bin until it happened and you can’t give Oilers that powerplay or its most likely a goal
The Kings needed that sort of aggression from game one.
Bro Stuart skinner is HIM
If theres one team that could come back it would be the Kings. They always seem to play a good game.
Remember when Kings fans said 'Oilers would never win a series or a cup with Skinner in net' well I think he just proved they can when he's on his game.
Skinner didnt face many grade A shots. It was the defense clogging the lanes that was the difference.
All the while having Cam Talbot and David Rittich as their tendys lol
When did Kings fans say this???....Skinner was in goal last year when they beat the Kings in the playoffs.
Remember when I predicted the Oilers would be up 3-1 and would get a shutout in game 4, on the same night that the Rangers would complete their sweep? Remember when I said that?
As a Knights fan, never doubted him. Some people follow hockey and others just follow their own team. Lots of talent on the Ice, and when the talent shines all the team watchers are like,”why did they play so bad?” rather than, “damn, they just got out played by the better team tonight.”
All I heard after leaving last nights’ game was “hot dog hot dog hot dog hot dog!”
IYKYK
The Oilers in the Paul Coffee era are much, much MUCH better on defense than they have been before. A great effort from Skinner, but he was complimented by the Oilers refusing many high-danger chances at all by denying the Kings the dangerous areas.
Absolutely, kings outshot but they didn't have many quality chances at all 👍
Paul Coffey likes it when people spell his name correctly.
@@rickpapineau6799 Well if I said "the Coffey effect" that's not a pun at all! That's just DUMB. RICK!
Skinner won that one the same way Price used to win games for Montreal...
skinner keep doing this 🙏
Stu’s making me eat my words of frustration after Game 2, and I couldn’t be happier about it! That’s going to be one of the best playoff performances of his entire career! Absolutely stole us this game, as well as a chance to wrap up the series at home on Wednesday. Get it done, boys!! Huge win last night!!
OILERS hold a 1-0 lead in a key playoff game?!?!?!?! Things can change a lot in a season!
No way Woodcroft could have coached them into that
Revenge Is A Dish Best Served , With A Shutout ... 💯%
Oh my god! That was the worst game we ever won 😂 Skinner is a GOAT!!!! 32 shots saved is amazing! 10 shots from the rest of the team is a shame ! But hell yeah! 3:1🎉
Or the best defensive game they ever won. 😄
Will Ferrell crying in a corner right now…
Skinner finally has the best game ever. Even Oilers were playing defense. Amazing game.
I love to see them win from Germany! Great job: Stewart Skinner!
I honestly don´t remember seeing this kind of maturity and sheer willpower to defend an opponent for 60 minutes of Play-Off Hockey in the McDrai Era. Even more so, the Team seemed to be prepared for exactly this kind of game. Outstanding work from the whole Team, especially Skinner and the coaching staff.
It's the coaching. Knoblauch and Coffey have a much better style for this bunch of guys. At the beginning of the year I was crying that we needed defensive overhaul with new personnel but the exact group of guys from the beginning just won his game like that.
Nothing better than a 1-0 final with great goal tending on both ends . I know the oilers only had 13 shots but but they had multiple great scoring chances on those shots
Spoiler alert there wasn’t many highlights the game was a defensive snoozer but if the kings want to just shoot from the outside all night and sit 4 men back in their zone all game we can win in those games too.
Also an example of a game where the Kings don't score when they don't get the triple-deflections-off-our-own-defenders-skate type goals.
What a goaltending battle!
Huge shutout stu
Hope Zack Hyman is ok. Took a few dirty shots tonight.
He was smiling when he took that hit. He'll be fine
Skinner allowed only 1 goal in his last 2 games. Amazing.
Wow kings were all over them! Skinner save their asses !
Canadas best NHL team can’t be stopped
Nice game skinner!!! Love the extension on the save!!!
Ok -- that was amazing. 90% of the Oilers' power was in Skinner. Crazy steal
Skinner looked really centered and composed on some tough looks. Really great game for him, you love to see someone really shine
That was a hard fought, great hockey game. I especially liked the heavy hit by Kane on Doughty.
That was some great great great goaltending👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Jack Micheals please for the love of hockey! He could commentate me opening a can soup better than these two. RIP Bob Cole.
I agree, get rid of this 3rd rate woke choice of an announcer and bring back a much better Jack Michaels.
What a heart breaker for the kings. Kudos to skinner
This Oiler win shows their maturity in the defensive side of their game. It’s good to see. I really want Oiler to win the Stanley Cup this year. They deserve it.
Kevin Bieksa knows what he’s talking about . CBC is fortunate to have someone with such a plethora of actual hockey experience.
Герой матча - Скиннер! Первый плей-офф шотаут в карьере! Отлично Стью! Так держать!
The Oilers were lucky to have the ref make a early whistle when the puck was clearly in the open and Skinner did not have possession.
Skinner stood on his head! If Skinner gets hot, it could be over for everyone else. Thats a big IF though.
He doesn't really need to get super hot...Just stay solid and steady...If they play THAT defensively discplined, that physical, stay out of the box and keep the Powerplay going at over 50% they will be a handful for any team to deal with...Despite the 1--0 score...THAT was playoff hockey. The puck battles were unreal. L.A pushed them hard.
He always gets better the more games he plays. Watching through the season I could already tell how he would do depending on how long of a break he got
I always put Skinner down when he plays like crap but tonight Mr, Skinner you were outstanding. You won this game
He has been good this season. Won 12 in a row. Most ever by an Oiler goalie.
Third period before we had 10 shots. Much different game than game 3. Kudos to the lads especially Skinner for finding a way.
Congrats to Draisaitl and Kane for keeping their emotions in check and not losing their composure to cost the Oilers this game.
What a huge game by Skinner 🎉🎉🎉
Wow EDM pulled a VAN in this game, nicely done Skinner.
Skinner shut out.. Never thought I would be saying those words earlier in the season. Great turn around for the guy!
For a 1 goal game this was a lot of fun to watch, great hockey from both teams the kings just couldn't get past the defense and Skinner!
These are the games that wins championships. Skinner made an excelent job today.
Hope the oilers thanked their goalie tonight. Won them the game! Shutting down 33 shots, amazing!
Attack gets you points, but defence wins matches.
"Yeah, I'm kinda great" -Stu probably
The hair explosion at 6:35 lol
How come Evan Bouchard hit the net? Perfect shot.
Skinner played well.
respect skinner, the whole fn show.
Oilers showing some versatility and ability to play in any situation! Outshot but kept most to the outside and transitioned quickly for some good looks👍🏻
Skinner superb! Finish them off now in the next game!
Hard fought. Still life in kings….we shall see
One more win and we don't have to hear the name 'Mikey' anymore.
We all know oilers are a very talented team with huge offensive power but this is something else. Maybe this could be the year.
Canucks fan here Congrats Edm Skinner is a beast
1-0 shots 33 LA - 13 Edm. Guess who won that game for Edmonton!!
Skinner is the new Ryan Miller ! If not for Skinner, this series would be tied. Dang that boy was HOT !
Good win. 🎉🎉🎉
That's the definition of bending and not breaking.
And the lessons learned during the 16-game win streak pay off with this game
Nice try Kings. Skinner with the clean sheet and Edmonton looks solid!
Oilers avs rematch going to be great
Hopefully they won't sweep us again
Have to make it through the canucks first
@@Goatman31We’ll pull that off in 6. Real competition are the Avs.
Those two easy saves at the of the first were well worth including.
Goaltending is paramount whether in the first round or the last. It will be needed going ahead.
Really big win for edmonton. These are the types of games cup winners win
Wow, this was a goalie war today and Skinner ... damn!
Bravo Skinner 👏
10 minutes for 1 goal, WOW
They are always ten minutes +, no matter how many goals. It is for people who never watched the game and don't know the results. So, they show lots of saves and scoring chances. If all you want is a short highlight package, this isn't for you.
Skinner saved there ass this time I hope they don't rely on him ro do it again spectaculer performance by skinner
I marvel that "spin-o-rama" has apparently become the official term among NHL announcers for players doing a spin move.
Despite the shot difference, BOTH teams played airtight, playoff hockey. There was not an inch of ice that was not battled for. I know that many would like more goals, but if they Oilers stay THAT disciplined defensively, and play physical without taking penalties they have a real chance to go very deep this year.....THAT was playoff hockey.
getting outshot 33-13 and winning is insane.
Эдмонтон 👍 Скиннер красавчик
Skinner with that banger Shutout
13 shots for Edmonton!!! Skinner was a wall.
