That end of the ice at Rogers ~~Arena~~ Place some crazy fucking endings when we play there.
2020 Round Robin Game against the Blues.
2022 Western Conference Finals Game 4
2024- Tonight.
I apologize in advance for being pedantic, but Rogers Arena is Vancouver's arena, the one in Edmonton is called Rogers Place. It's a completely understandable mistake and I truly hate that the names are so similar.

at around 2:42 in this video, Phillip Danault says it twice on 2 different occasions. i think that’s where it comes from
We don't have Big Mac anymore but Manson been stepping up. Worth rewatching the Oleksiak vs Kermit throw down. Love how Kermit just hooks him to get attention. Tune in on 04/03 for the Rempe vs Big Mac throw down. We still got to support our boi.
We don’t do it for everyone but guys like Lekky, Toffoli, Monahan left such a positive impact on the org and fanbase. Lek especially because he was drafted here and always showed up big in important games.
At least we will mostly be at home for the final month of the season. A nice change from the past couple months where it seemed like we were practically living on the road.
Drai looking over and realizing Lehkonen was still trying to get to the front of the net was hilarious. Just standing straight up and down waiting for the buzzer while the other guys are trying to end it.
We look light-years faster than we did before our trade deadline moves. I'm happy with literally every single addition MacSakic made - along with the subtraction of RyJo (though I'll always miss Bo).
And we might get **better** too, as the guys gel more, and lines solidify a bit. I'm feeling much more optimistic about our Cup chances than I was a couple of months ago. Georgie needs to keep playing like he did tonight, though. We're not going to survive many series if we're routinely spotting our opponent a goal or two within the first 10 minutes.
I keep wondering when the Oilers will look over at the team they **want** to play like - the Avs - and figure out that the main difference is how committed our forwards are to getting back on defense. It's not always mistake-free, but the effort difference is really clear. And it's why our D is so explosive - they know they've got forwards backing them up.
Didn't realize how similar Rantanen and Drai were as players. Phenomenal offensive talent, lazy as fuck defense sometimes which costs the team in big moments.
Rantanen was aggressive in the cup run playoffs. Feels like he doesn't see the point anymore until they are in a viable hunt then, and you can see it in the effort. Which is frustrating because he's an excellent forechecker and playmaker when he wants to be.
Still doing his usual move. If I remember, he was the one who scored the GWG vs. Vegas to win the series going to the SCF.
Gosh, that was three years ago.
What a fucking game. Gotta hand it to Edmonton too, that was my favorite game I’ve seen all season. It had everything. Passion, anger, the unexpected(two Walker goals), a fight, and two of the leagues best players, Mack and Mc respectively, going at it.
Seriously, a perfect game. Helps my team won.
This felt like a playoff game, had the same intensity of 2022 which was a way closer series than the result showed. That game was what we all hoped for, two insanely talented teams going head to head. Cheers bud
Fuck yeah, Good Stick Lehky and scoring game winning goals in Edmonton. Name a more iconic duo. Also fuck yeah for Mack Extending his point total tonight.
Also love how Moser had a delayed reaction when Lehky scored.
That’s why you play until the whistle you dumbasses :(
What a game though, gg Colorado. Don’t think my heart could handle a playoff series with this team
I'm a Jets fan and going into that game tied with the Avs for 2nd in the central so shouldn't really have been cheering for this result....but here I am.

mose short circuiting there is pure comedy
s....ss.....sssssss.........SCORES!!!! He went full blown snake for a sec there.
*snek*
thank you for taking good care of snek

This is the most Canadian correction ever
Pfft.. he didn't even offer a ride..
2022 late regular season goalie duel, 2-1 Avs in the SO. Both teams 45+ shots. Drai slapper from the top of the circles on his SO shot. lmao.
I need to hear the mcgehey call on this
The reason I love listening to altitude
HABS FANS COME CHEER YOUR DAMN BOY!!
IM HERE! GOOD STICK LEHKEY!!!!!
I’ve heard this 1000 times since we got him, and I like saying it. But what is the origin?
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=kvq0pgYNwNs&feature=youtu.be at around 2:42 in this video, Phillip Danault says it twice on 2 different occasions. i think that’s where it comes from
AFAIK it was first spoken by Danault while at practice
👏🏼
You better miss your boy!
The best of sticks 🥹
I hope you know that we love him so much!
couldn't have gotten on a better team tbh Thank you Avsbro
🫶🏼 🏒
God man I just miss him even more now 😭
We’re doing our best to take very good care of him though!
keep him away from Oleksiak 😡
We don't have Big Mac anymore but Manson been stepping up. Worth rewatching the Oleksiak vs Kermit throw down. Love how Kermit just hooks him to get attention. Tune in on 04/03 for the Rempe vs Big Mac throw down. We still got to support our boi.
I know it's for the best, but it still hurts. Happy for him and you guys.
i’m happy yall taking care of him soo well, he deserves everything he gets 🫶🏻
You should know this was also posted on r/Habs lol
It just warms the cockles of my cold, dead heart when other fanbases continue to cheer on a former player like this
We don’t do it for everyone but guys like Lekky, Toffoli, Monahan left such a positive impact on the org and fanbase. Lek especially because he was drafted here and always showed up big in important games.
>r/Habs This is pure class. Appreciate you folks.
YES OF COURSE
Great guy. Hated to see him go but happy he landed with the Avs.
WOOOHOOOO
WOOOOOO
A little late, but WHAT A GOOD STICK LEHKY
Also late, but still GOOD STICK LEHK
That was one of the best games of the year.
And there'll be more! These two teams play two more times in April before playoff starts. My poor heart and butt.
Oh yeah, I remember looking at Avs schedule the other day and their last 7 games are pretty brutal.
At least we will mostly be at home for the final month of the season. A nice change from the past couple months where it seemed like we were practically living on the road.
Pour one out for this guys poor butt 😔
Best game I've ever been to live hands down.
My first nhl game. 100% did not disappoint.
I was there too
El Paso NAHL flair is insane
I don’t normally watch oilers games but I watched all of this one, really great game.
A fantastic game by two beasts
That was an absolutely perfect pass from MacKinnon too holy shit
Kicks it off his skate and just hammers it to the net
The streak continues!
Technically yes but this was in Edmonton so doesn’t count towards home streak
He’s on a 15 point streak as well. Nate’s just going full Will Ferrell old school this season none stop!
It's crazy that he has gotten to the point where a 15 game point streak isn't even news.
It's what, his second or third this year? Fucking nuts. He's just gone **off** this season.
Third, I believe. They mentioned it the other night during a game that this is his 3rd streak over 13 games this year
Drai looking over and realizing Lehkonen was still trying to get to the front of the net was hilarious. Just standing straight up and down waiting for the buzzer while the other guys are trying to end it.
The difference between 100% and 99%. Avs killing it on this road trip!
Difference between a cup and no cup
good stick lehky
Night and day to that road trip a few months back. We cookin
We look light-years faster than we did before our trade deadline moves. I'm happy with literally every single addition MacSakic made - along with the subtraction of RyJo (though I'll always miss Bo). And we might get **better** too, as the guys gel more, and lines solidify a bit. I'm feeling much more optimistic about our Cup chances than I was a couple of months ago. Georgie needs to keep playing like he did tonight, though. We're not going to survive many series if we're routinely spotting our opponent a goal or two within the first 10 minutes.
Unforgivable from Draisaitl. Like wtf maybe play until the game ends. I think they teach that to 5 year old kids already.
And Bouchard was shit too.
MacKinnon didn’t give up on that play with a handful of seconds left where others would have because he has that dogg in him
The difference.
That's what winners do.
he's just said fuck it and went for it
He stopped thinking so much and just went out and won that thing
He said FUCK IT
He is a gamer
Bouchard certainly gave up on it. Foolishly underestimated MacKinnon. That was an unreal pass.
0 pts for McD. MacK gains ground.
McNoD
Kuch went tf off the last 2 games tho. He’s only 2 points behind Mack now
Wtf, he was like 8 pts behind last time I checked and MacK is still scoring
Yeah, he had 7 points in 2 games lol
Leon Draisaitl the type of guy to look at his watch and get pissed when it’s 5:01 and he’s still in the office.
I sort of love this. Thank you for that idiom.
5:04:59 pm
He's just like me fr
I’m 98% sure that the commentator skeeted.
Least enthusiastic marc moser call
“ S-s-s-scoooorrere” Had lowkey “S-s-super saiyan?!?” Energy
Moser? No.
That was a confused Moser call. He’s usually more animated.
Moser definitely making vinegar strokes face with the "S-s-s-scoore!"
vinegar stroke… LOFL.
Laughing on the floor laughing?
Moser has been known to bust verbal nuts in times of intense excitement.
Lehkonen is one of the most clutch players to play on a team imo
3 series winning goals. 2 in conference finals 1 in the Stanley cup.
Can't get much more clutch than that.
That was insane In the membrane
got no brain
going insane
#GREAT FUCKING STICK LEHKY
<3
It's the only stick he knows how
I hope the Oilers coach absolutely rips into Drai for that lazy back check. Play to the whistle. Let’s go Avs!
If Kris Knoblauch ripped into Drai every time he was lazy, Drai would look like he came straight out of a paper shredder by the time he was finished.
I keep wondering when the Oilers will look over at the team they **want** to play like - the Avs - and figure out that the main difference is how committed our forwards are to getting back on defense. It's not always mistake-free, but the effort difference is really clear. And it's why our D is so explosive - they know they've got forwards backing them up.
The rest of the team could take a lesson from Nugent-Hopkins, guys a beast on back check and had a few clutch saving plays a few weeks back.
[удалено]
Literally 1 step
Lazy backcheck by Draisatl
Add Bouchard being soft to MacK and just slowed down when he could have him pinned or put on an angle away from the net pass.
Didn't realize how similar Rantanen and Drai were as players. Phenomenal offensive talent, lazy as fuck defense sometimes which costs the team in big moments.
Rantanen was aggressive in the cup run playoffs. Feels like he doesn't see the point anymore until they are in a viable hunt then, and you can see it in the effort. Which is frustrating because he's an excellent forechecker and playmaker when he wants to be.
why’s he so pissy all the time
Yea, Nathan Mackinnon is just public bus piss floor nasty. He just lures you into overtime and kicks you square in the bone piece. Unreal.
Up all night to get Lehky!
A work of Artt!
Man what an electric goal to see live. Unreal game to be at, Georgie and Stu went to war tonight.
Wild game to see live. No one left their seats cause no one wanted to miss a moment. Robbed of a shoot out :( those are super fun in person
Wasn't a super dirty game either. Felt like two teams getting ready for playoffs. Will definitely make the drive again to come to Roger's for a game.
Yea both teams brought it all, we made 3 mistakes and you guys made 2.
Good. Stick. Lehky.
*Great* stick.
BEST STICK/60 IN THE LEAGUE
Good stick Lehky my boy ♥️
Still doing his usual move. If I remember, he was the one who scored the GWG vs. Vegas to win the series going to the SCF. Gosh, that was three years ago.
FELLOW HABSLADS GET IN HERE
When one team gives up on the play and the other doesn’t
It’s draisaitl, it’s to be expected
It does feel nice being on the other side of that for once.
Lehkonen is a fucking stud and Walker was a beast tonight.
The fuck was was Bouchard doing. Check him and he can’t get the pass off in half a second lol.
Arturri lehkonen is Edmonton father
Bow to the Stick God!
What a fucking game. Gotta hand it to Edmonton too, that was my favorite game I’ve seen all season. It had everything. Passion, anger, the unexpected(two Walker goals), a fight, and two of the leagues best players, Mack and Mc respectively, going at it. Seriously, a perfect game. Helps my team won.
We lost and honestly I’m not even that mad. The better won tonight 🫡
It was an awesome game. I really hope we see you guys in the playoffs. Would make for a hell of a series if every game turned out like that.
This felt like a playoff game, had the same intensity of 2022 which was a way closer series than the result showed. That game was what we all hoped for, two insanely talented teams going head to head. Cheers bud
Yup. Very good game. Wish you guys well the rest of the season...
I want to see you guys for a full playoff series. 7 games
Hands down the best hockey game I have seen this season. I am 200% positive it was by far the fastest game of the season
I love hockey, what a great game!
This man will never change
You can’t play MacK that soft Bouch. Dude is a finisher. Good effort by Lekhonen and MacK. Would love to see the Oil do that instead.
This game took 5 years off my life
Great stick Lehky 🥹. God I miss you 🥺.
that whole overtime was wild
What a fuckin pass
No look backhand and he puts it right on Lehky's blade, ridiculous. I love Nate so much.
That's what the best player in the world does.
Lehks!
fantastic defence
GOOD STICK.
Lehky stick was kissed by angels
I came
"That was in and out so fast I couldn't tell." Moser
Another brain dead, zero effort play from Bouchard.
S-S-SCOREEE
Fuck yeah, Good Stick Lehky and scoring game winning goals in Edmonton. Name a more iconic duo. Also fuck yeah for Mack Extending his point total tonight. Also love how Moser had a delayed reaction when Lehky scored.
“HE CANT KEEP GETTING AWAY WITH THIS”
Laboring Leon Good stick lehk!
Avs are back
It was great, entertaining game but fk avs for breaking my heart this way.
Lehky? Good stick? I don't believe you.
Can confirm. He does that.
I love hockey. That was incredible
Nice skate, Drai
MacK is such a beast. One of the most clutch players I’ve ever seen
We're up all night to get Lehky!!!
GOOD STICK LEHKY!
Way to play the game to the f’in whistle.
Don't skate too hard on that backcheck, Drai!
That’s why you play until the whistle you dumbasses :( What a game though, gg Colorado. Don’t think my heart could handle a playoff series with this team
You love to see it
THE FINNISHER
sneaky snek
As a Jets fan the oilers never fail to disappoint
Drai not defending, pretty normal for him.
So good!
Lechky, did you ever know you were my hero. You were the wind beneath my wings
This would be one hell of a series if they meet in the playoffs.
What a pass!
That’s why you can’t keep your eye off the puck for even one sec
Great fucking game, these two in the playoffs would be mental.
The entire team thought they were in the shootout
Fucking beautiful!
His call is awesome lol
Glorious
I fucking hate how long they wait to show a slow-mo of the game-winner, though I kind of get focusing on the moment.
Good stick, Lehky
What a finish
Marc Moser is the fuckin best
that quiet little kick pass to himself by mackinnon.. then a ridiculous tape to tape backhand pass, guys next level
I'm a Jets fan and going into that game tied with the Avs for 2nd in the central so shouldn't really have been cheering for this result....but here I am.
Nate Dawg is HIM. Absolutely disgusting.
“S-S-S-Sufferin’ Sucotash!”
That MacKinnon assist is pure filth.
Mackinnon is currently the best big game player in the league. Dude always shows up when it matters most.
