Ya, but from what i remember, there was only really one goal Rollie could have had a chance on, that one stick side... (I think the last one the Canes scored on him?)
I could be mistaken tho, as I'm bummed out today. I hate Conks, but I'm prepared to put my faith in him if he's getting the start.
It's not over, but I just hope the Oil get their 60 minute legs back, instead of the 40 minute ones they used last night!

last night really reminded me of game 1 against Detroit, and IMO, the loss to Detroit to start the playoffs was a more of a heartbreaker than the one last night, and we all know how the Detroit series turned out...

lol! that is true, but no one person is bigger/more important than the rest of the team, hopefully the Oilers can use the loss of Roloson as a rallying point 'know, "let's not only do this for ourselves, but for Roloson, who's done absolute everything in his power for us"...
they just need to tighten up on Defense IMO, Roloson wasn't even that great last night, and they still almost won the game...

I really think that loss should be on Ryan Smyths shoulders. Think about it. 2 on 1 with the score 3-0. He scores its 4-0 going into the 3rd. Instead he flubs a pass into Hedican, puck goes up ice and The Bod slams it home. He had alot of other chances in that game and just didn't come through. Stupid Brind'amour. My buddy has ticks for game 3. I told him to wear an old Lindros jersey and then get his girlfriend to wear a jersey that says Brind'amours wife on it. Hope he gets on TV.
Here's my prediction. Roloson starts game 3. When have you heard anybody be so specific about an injury so quickly after a game, in the playoffs yet? Its a big ploy. The Oil will be down 2-0 in the series, they will hit the ice in Edmonton, Roloson will be announced as the starter, the place goes bananas and the Oil win the next 4 and win in 6. Mark my words.
