Great goal by Pisani!! Definitely a better effor by the Oilers in game 5. They just have to take it one game at a time. If they can now win back home in Edmonton.........
One thing I just have to rant on is the officiating. The officiating, IMO, has been a disgrace to hockey. Some of the calls they are making (on both sides) is quite pathetic. They are calling absolutely EVERYTHING....it's crazy. I find it is really taking away from the series. I know that the officials are calling these chinsy penalities because they have been told to.....but c'mon it is just painful to watch!
Is it just me, or does anyone else feel the same way?

There were a few good 10.9s out there.

I agree.
I think that's 9.9 Ian. You would need some Russian judges for those though.

Shane, I have to agree. The last two games especially they seem hell bent to slow the game down with a lot of calls.

Next is a home game which should take a little pressure off them, and if they can get their PP working, they've got a chance.
We're behind you OIL....

And my favourite "Go Oilers!" song from the same station.
