I wish we had Pitlick healthy for playoffs. Adding him to this zoo of physical play would just be that much more awesome. I guess I'm just being greedy.
Just to be sure they should say "this is a sport called hockey, it's played on the ice with skates. the team that puts the most pucks in the other team's net wins the game. this is the playoffs, which means that...etc. etc. etc."

sadly, I'd think Pitlick is done with us. Chia likes signing college FAs, so we will be stressing the contract limit a lot in the coming years. But for sure it would have been nice if there were hope for him coming back for the playoffs to see what he can really do.
I'm gonna say that this is a good thing. Seems neither ref is a PP manufacturer. Limit the careless stick work and pound them 5 on 5. With Thornton drawing in he will probably play in a limited capacity 5 on 5, but get a ton of PP time. Let's keep him on the bench and make them regret rushing him back in.
He's a game-time decision.
Do the Sharks even have any forwards that can bring a physical game?? I know they can handle physical play... but not really any big hitters. Ward maybe??
I want to see another physical game from the Oilers, come out hard and don't let the foot of the pedal for 3 periods. Hit bodies score Goals!
Any news on One-legged Thornton playing tonight? Would love to see him sit another game out.

I want refs to call a ton of PPs (but we have to be mega disciplined). Our PP is killer and weve been rolling. It could spark McDavid and LD. At the same time the Sharks PP is kind of meh and our PK has been great lately
I think first 2 games Lucic/Kassian/Maroon/Nurse were begging for some intense playoff hockey and we going off crowds energy. But after 2 games they should see Sharks arent playing that way. They are going pure skill. We already have intimidated sharks with physicality, now its time to focus on not taking penalties, while laso still keeping foot on the gas hitting wise. But once whistle goes, stop everything
Sharks are good at home
weather the early storm then take it to them like you can Oilers!
3-1 Oilers...Drai gets the game winner
