What an amazing game! The Oilers scored five unanswered goals to come back from a 3-1 deficit and defeat the San Jose Sharks by a final score of 6-3. Some really great goals in this game, like Samsanov’s out of the penalty box. The Edmonton Oilers website has a good recap.
Playoff fever here in Edmonton has reached crazy levels. I’m too young to really remember the madness of the dynasty, but some say this is worse (or better, depending on how you look at it). Whyte Avenue was shut down this evening, open only for pedestrians, because it was just too nuts. Jasper Avenue was pretty insane too, so I took some video of it. Loud horns, hundreds of flags, lots of jerseys, etc – very crazy indeed! The roughly 10-minute video features me walking into traffic, and Oilers music courtesy of 91.7 The Bounce. Enjoy!

Go Oilers Go!

That was a great game. Great vid by the way! I’m sure it was about 10,000 times louder on Whyte though.
Oh you’re probably right…Whyte Ave must have been insane!
I’m so sad right now. I watched the entire video and didn’t see 1 hot girl. And nobody even flashed the camera!!
I swear of Space K does one more bone-headed play that costs us a goal I am going to snap. Yeah we won game 3 & game 4. But the only thing I can remember from both games was Spacek not tying up Marleau in game 3 allowing him to get the rebound untouched and scoring in the wide open net. Then game 4. Oh yes who can forget game 4. Not only does Spacek shoot while the defender is right in front of him allowing it to get easily blocked, but back the other way on the 3 on 2 he takes himself COMPLETELY out of the play to make it a 3 on 1.
He already did pretty bad in the Detroit series and I didn’t think it could get any worse. But evidently I was wrong. I realize he is trying. But at least try for the correct team, (*&$#(*W&%_+
I too was disappointed there were no hot girls, but remember, this was Jasper and not Whyte!
