Around the NHL - (Playoffs Edition)

[70sSanO]

I remember Ritchie Valens version of La Bamba from that time frame. I can almost guarantee few people even knew the English translation much less the backstory back then. And few people know it today.

However, once the origination of the song is understood, the Oilers should revisit its use.

I’m not so certain that puck didn’t cross the goal line.

it absolutely did not cross the line.

Rangers look awful... well, like the Ducks actually. Nobody can hold on to the puck to save their lives. Passes are off. No finish. Definitely reminds me of our whole season.

Because you have the only overhead view that would answer the question? Both angles we saw were just that, on an angle and not clearly directly above the line.

Take a look at sportnet's replay of it on X. Overhead shot included.

The second goal Freddie gave up just killed them. He’s just not a playoff goaltender. Shades of game 7 against the Hawks.

Did I just hear that Carolina uses a man on man defense lol?

Yes, they do it the best by far.

Why don’t you just post it.

Yep. You have to have galaxy-brain players to pull it off

 

[SmokeyDuck]

I dont disagree, that meltdown just gave me flashbacks as the announcer mentioned their man on man lol.

 

[Dr Johnny Fever]

What an absolute meltdown. It wasn’t all Freddie but once again he doesn’t come up big when his team needs it most.

 

[Terry Yake]

freddie isn't a playoff performer and the canes are a regular season team

 

[DucksFanDFW]

Why don’t you just post it.

Not sure what is with your attitude, but I told you where to find it. I have absolutely no clue how to post a video here. Hope you find something to make your night a little better.

[duxfan1101]

I’m very impressed with Vancouver. I didn’t think they had a chance in this series, but they have outplayed Edmonton so far.

 

[Reveille1984]

Come on Vancouver, finish the job and get us the 24th pick

 

[TheGoodShepard1]

If it’s not injury-related, masterclass defensively by the Canucks on McDavid. 1 point outside of his 4-assist Game 2 in this series

Well, that explains a lot. I didn’t realize it was such a chore for you to post a link to something you had already found. Sorry to have put you out by asking so much of you.

If I remember correctly, if Edmonton wins the pick goes up to a minimum of 29, is that correct?

 

[Reveille1984]

Correct, if EDM wins we go from 24 to 29 at best.

 

[forever1922]

Yeah let's go 2 darts for 24th!

I'll double down in hopes the double jinx cancel themselves: Edmonton never earned anything despite all the talent they have.

 

[Anaheim4ever]

What if the guy Madden wants at #24 is gonna be there at #29 or even #32 ?
Like with the Gaucher and Tracey pick they may already have a guy they like more than other teams.
I hope not and they go with a high skill guy because it seems they are going defense at #3.

Yeah, I've been on this train of thought for a while. If the past drafts are any indication, we'd probably be able to pick a same guy with both of those pick options

 

[snowave]

It's funny, on the surface I convinced myself I want the ex ducks (Oil) to win... however, as I watch the game I find myself secretly cheering for the Nucks. the internal struggle is real.

(I think I just can't get over the hate I have for Edmonton).
