Round 1: Edmonton Oilers vs. Winnipeg Jets

If you take away their head-to-head series, Edmonton only earned 3 more points than Ottawa. They?re a bad team that got a boost from dominating another bad team.

Didn't know that, that's an interesting stat.

I always had the Jets as one of the top two teams in the division. I was pretty surprised that the Oilers passed them, but McDavid was pretty much doing it all to try and get 100 pts.

1-1 McD with the wrap around. Hoping the Oil can win 3 games!

I?m torn.  As much as I want them beating up on each other I would also like to try and avoid a second back-to-back this postseason

I dunno, assuming Andersen is up to it I think we could have a big advantage in back-to-back's against the North teams.
 
If the Oilers get swept this year I promise I will let go of my deep seated hatred of the Oilers due to the number of 1OA picks over the years.

Highlight of the game for me. Or is it low light.

Definitely a highlight

I think Harnarayan Singh is the Connor McDavid of hockey announcers.

For how relatively new he is I really enjoy his commentary.  It?s weird listening to a guy get excited about exciting things during the game.

He's really moved up the ladder going from Punjabi broadcasts to getting an important assignment in English. I'm joking a bit in calling him a McDavid, but compared to his peers I think he's already significantly better, though it's kind of a low bar.

Chris Cuthbert may well be a competent announcer, but I find his voice is so mediocre, and that's honestly part of the viewer experience.

And Jim Hughson, ugh, don't get me started...
 
Refs have just given up on calling anything.  The Jets are not just holding sticks but yanking them when a guy is trying to play the puck
