Am I the only one that saw that Perry choke hold done with a stick as leverage in the choke?
That's incredibly dangerous and stupid and suspendable for the rest of the playoffs if that is what I saw in that play.

The boys at TSN are saying McDavid and Draisaitl need to change the way they play to win in the playoffs. How about, I dunno, improving the talent around them first. Crazy idea.

That too. I don't know how you look at that roster and think those two are the issue.

Seriously. They're the closest thing to 87 and 71 as a duo the league has seen in this era. Shit worked out for us when we built the supporting cast properly.

Let’s be honest. We drafted into it.
Talbot, Fleury, Letang, Scuderi, Orpik, Kennedy, Whitney, Malone. Solid support pieces for those 08 and 09 squads.

Star-bashing is the NHL-est thing ever. Can't be blaming the oldboy GMs for building a crap team or the borderline NHLers that are costing their team on every shift.
Yep, it's the fault of the two franchise cornerstones, not the crappy job management did vis-a-vis trying to surround them with the right mix of talent.
Trying to think where I've seen this play before . . .

Clearly what the Oilers need are more players like ZAR. You know, guys who play "the right way", not like those 100+ point guys who do weird things like score goals or produce points.
well that is a little bit of rose colored glasses. Let's be real our supporting cast is stronger in the most recent runs. A young in their prime SId+Geno can carry along a much weaker supporting cast. Geno damn near won the series against the Canes on his own in 09. fast forward to 16, our 3rd line terrorized opponents, our winger on the 3rd line maybe should have won the Conn Smythe.
Point is for the Oil. They need to sort the supporting cast and goalie out immediately. no more 5 year plans. Colorado is going to be right up against it with contracts in a couple of years so they need to strike now as well. Grubaurer getting hurt is really the only reason they didn't beat dallas.
I saw that too, utter dick move. I want Dallas to win but that guy can just go f*** himself.

That, or Kelly. I heard her called by both names. I think Bieksa called her Kelly?
