Game 2 follows swiftly on Friday, May 10th, continuing the excitement with another 7 PM puck drop in Vancouver. The intensity then shifts gears as the series heads to Edmonton for Game 3 on Sunday, May 12th. Canucks supporters are anticipated to travel in droves to support their team in enemy territory, so we could see a hint of blue and green in the sea of orange. Game 4 will also be in Edmonton on Tuesday, May 14th, with the puck drop time yet to be determined.
Should the series extend beyond four games, the teams will continue battling for supremacy with Game 5 scheduled for Thursday, May 16th, back in Vancouver. The possibility of a Game 6 looms large, set to take place on Saturday, May 18th, in Edmonton. Fans had already been vocal about there not being a Saturday game throughout the first 4 contests of this series, so they may get their wish.

Oilers Twitter vs. Canucks Twitter is funny
It&#39;s just Oilers fans trying to roast Canucks fans, but failing, because no one can hurt Canucks fans more than themselves
Then Canucks fans just bring up how Edmonton&#39;s a dump, their internet/water, Joeys, IKEA, and the outdated mall
