Around the NHL - Part XLII - (Playoffs Edition)

God Petterson sux

This 6 on 5 is worse than ours

 

[Megustaelhockey]

Another club with a cup drought longer than ours. Woof.

 

[DoTheBlue]

Nucks made interesting in the end but the game was boring as hell.

 

[Fitzy]

Could have had Bouchard over Kravtsov

 

[will1066]

McDavid swearing like a sailor

 

[Megustaelhockey]

The Oilers have finally taken a step or two forward, lol. Remember this from a number of years ago?

 

[mike14]

Can the McDavid Oilers finally win a game in the 3rd round?

 

[gabevh3]

That Sakic documentary did not need to be made. Who even remembers that and gives a shit about it?

It's to crap on nyr and blame them for salaries.

Watching these playoffs made me realize teams have the same issues I complain about with the Rangers, probably worse.

 

[KirkAlbuquerque]

Edmonton defended that 6-on-5 amazingly. Why can't we do that shit?

 

[Machinehead]

The game has evolved so much even in the last couple of years that teams won't be successful without a good goalie. Every contending team's got elite offensive takent to some degree. Teams cant exclusively defense their way to the grail any longer. Look at teams that attempted to sit on leads playing D. That's just my opinion.

The last two goalies to win Cups aren't starters anymore.

Dallas is going to feast on Skinner.

Apparently it’s kicking off in VCBC fireworks thrown at police a Petterson jersey ablaze

Oh wait false alarm oops sorry

 

[Nickmo82]

Giving Edmonton a half of game 7 head start was a bold strategy from Vancouver.

[McRanger92]

Imagine the backlash if Mika "Not a 1C" Zibanejad had a playoff that Elias "Trade the Farm" Pettersson just had?

 

[GoAwayPanarin]

Dakota Joshua getting overpaid by NJ on July 1 is the most obvious outcome of all time.

 

[LOFIN]

I'm expecting the exact same result as two years ago: they get swept in the conference final. Dallas should be so much better than them.

I don't have to imagine, people call him soy and make fun of him having a kid after one bad shift.

I still think Meeka Zibanejad is funny

I think they’ll win a game.

If Dallas takes a bunch of penalties it can get interesting plus I haven’t really liked what I’ve seen from Oettinger at all. Even in games where he’s done well he looks really uncomfortable.

It would be fine if some of the usual suspects weren't dead serious about criticizing his masculinity.

Like, I don't think Trouba is actually dumb. You guys know that, right? I have no problem with the person.

I feel the Mika stuff leaves kayfabe with some people. It's a minority but it really bothers me when it happens. He's given us a lot.
