[QUOTE="Knightfall, post: 2881240, member: 2012"] I was hoping for the Sabres to come out of the East, but too many injuries to their "D" limited their ability to beat Carolina. As for the Oilers, I am a lifetime fan, and I will support them to the bitter end. I lost faith when they were down 2-0 to the Sharks, and they proved me (and everyone else) wrong. Yes, devilbat is right in saying they didn't show any confidence in Jussi, but I think that will change in Game 3, as I'm sure MacT ripped them a new hole. MacT will likely change the lineup and mixup the lines in order to shake up the team. I doubt he'll take Jussi out, and I think that will show Markkanen that MacT believes in him, at least. Also, they didn't play the style of game that got them here. They only had 7 blocked shots in all of Game 2; that's not Oilers hockey. They have to block way more, clear the front of the net, and not take stuipid penalties. Penalties are okay, if they take away a Carolina scoring chance, but bonehead plays, away from the puck, are unacceptable. The reality is, that the Oilers will either win or lose, [B]As A Team[/B]. There are a lot of good players on the Oilers roster, they simply have to believe in each other, not just in the goalie. Roloson being knocked out of the series has obviously hurt their confidence, and hopefully, the bad result in Game 2 showed them that they can't rely on just the goalie, in order to win. Do I beileve they can come back and win? I have to, or I can't call myself a diehard Edmonton Oiler fan. Will they, well that remains to be seen, but I can hope for it to happen. :D Do I think Carolina can sweep the Oilers? It's a troubling thought, but if the boys in blue don't play better then they're risking disappointing the home crowd, completely. However, I think the Oilers have too much pride and talent to get swept in four games. They will win at home, and make this series. [B]I still believe in my team.[/B] [COLOR=Blue][SIZE=3][B]Go Oilers Go![/B][/SIZE][/COLOR] KF72 [/QUOTE]
