Around the League - PLAYOFFS!?

[BertCorbeau]

I think Vancouver is done in this series

Carolina....steady fredy!

Vancouver...zone time, puck control, one lapse and boom 2-1 Edmonton.

 

[WillNy29]

Leafs would have given up at 3-1 guaranteed.

"you sure about that?" meme

 

[PanniniClaus]

Rod the Bod actually made the right call when he went to Kotchekov... then he got cold feet even though he played well. Back to Freddie where he was once again wildly outplayed each game.

Rod - reach out to Treliving Saturday.. we can work something out.

 

[Seath The Scaleless]

Both teams have some truly awful d-men

If one of them somehow makes the final....lmao

 

[TMLegend]

2-1 for the good guys after 1.

 

[Squiffy]

2-1 for the good guys after 1.

No good guys, just the Bad and the Ugly.

Carolina in a nutshell. They always seem to dominate the game, yet most of it is perimeter play while shooting from everywhere instead of creating dangerous chances.

 

[BertCorbeau]

4th line goal for the Canucks give them life

 

[Seath The Scaleless]

Bouchard piles up the points but he is such a disaster in the D zone. Ekholm has done a good job carrying him

 

[Dave92]

Ander5en going out in typical fashion

He should just be out on the PP. That's it. He cant play defense.

 

[BertCorbeau]

Oh look Edmonton gets gifted a PP on a bad call

Wow. That was not a penalty.

 

[Seath The Scaleless]

How on earth is that a penalty on Pettersson?

I've never seen those reverse hits get called. Charging for standing still? Lmao

Reminds me a lot like the Leafs with a slightly different cap structure. They've also faced some bad luck in terms of goaltending too...

42.1 Charging - A minor or major penalty shall be imposed on a player who skates, jumps into or charges an opponent in any manner.

Pettersson clearly left his feet.

Rod come to Toronto..... those numbers look about right ... no one will see the difference....

Not against rod... just funny.

Wtf. Zone time etc apparently doesn't mean much.

Imagine players... who play... and finish... in the playoffs... clutch stuff.

That'd help.

 

[3blizzard4]

Edmonton with one shot this period. Something tells me they come out with a lead to end the 2nd.

edit: and they get a PP. Lets see if my prophesy comes true.

 

[TMLegend]

I don't know what Joshua is complaining about. Clearly interference.

 

[Seath The Scaleless]

42.1 Charging - A minor or major penalty shall be imposed on a player who skates, jumps into or charges an opponent in any manner.

Pettersson clearly left his feet.

He was bracing for a hit and barely moved. Left his feet, sure, but didn't meet any of above. Certainly didn't jump into him

Just a bad call.

Not sure what's going on with McDavid, but he looks really bad. Canucks have a glorious chance here

Oddly enough, Pickard has actually been solid. Although, both goals against were kinda weird

They are usually automatic on the PP. Not today. Like you said Van better take advantage.
Doesn't take much for Edmonton to flip the game upside down.

Van has been way more aggressive on the PK, too. That's the key to limit the damage against a dominant PP.

Be aggressive and force the PP to make a nice play to generate a chance. If they score, then hats off to them. But I like my chances more than a passive diamond

They've made some goaltending choices in the process too.
