"Knee" McDavid? Really nice move by McDavid here but lets be careful with our word choice..

First, he tries to shoulder check* McDavid. Second, damn can McDavid skate and keep aware of his surrondings. Third, chill Felicia.

Yeah I'm not sure he tried to knee McDavid there, I think he went for a hit.

Anyways, McDavid dazzled tonight as usual. Multiple "oohs and awwwws" from the crowd in Vancouver tonight. Could have easily had 3 assists, Eberle hits the post and numerous set ups in prime scoring areas.

The Oilers really need to find a finisher for him, he can make someone a 50 goal scorer with the amount of plays he generates time after time.

What would you describe that leg movement as?

Not the first body part to go flying in the game..



It certainly wouldn't be a pre-season game between the two teams without a Canuck injuring an Oiler.

So we're going to see threads about McDavid avoiding your standard open ice check? Your Oiler brethren are going to love this.

Right. Your team lost ... now I understand this thread.

Lol why're you saying these horrible things about the Canucks! ... Better roll out one of: Kassian, Maroon, and/or Lucic...

"Standard"

And apparently threads about Reinhart's foot speed in the AHL is fine?

I would much rather discuss McDavid's dangles thanks.

You can pause the video at the time of the hit and it's pretty clear he leads the hit with the body. His leg might seem a bit wobbly only because he missed the initial contact, and I highly doubt Hutton had dirty intentions here. The kid is a teddy bear.

Nice of you to instantly go into attack mode and post an irrelevant video of our AHL fodder though.

Meh, I can see how the play could be seen as going for the knee at first glance. But if you look at Hutton's upper body he's clearly trying to hit him but McDavid's skating is just miles ahead of Hutton's. And Hutton is a good skater.

Damn McDavid is going to be good. Really good. Looking forward to getting scored on lots.

It's the pre-season.

Yep. It's going to be a guy that knows how to read off him, get to the right places and be willing to exploit scoring chances when McDavid is drawing a crowd of defenders to him. I thought Lucic deferred to him too much in this game, but there's a whole season to figure things out and a host of decent wingers to choose from.

He does stuff like that every single game.

I think Nucks fans watch the Oilers a fair amount and are generally some of the biggest McDavid supporters from opposing teams. That was par for the course. He's incredible and can skate faster with puck control better than anyone else. Nothing new.

 

[CanuckGame39]

Tried to knee. Lol give me a ****ing break.

It's the pre-season.

Indeed. Yet here we are in a thread you created. It seems any loss is enough to bother you. Any threads on the goal Hutton scored that for some reason didn't count?

First preseason game for Lucic. Anyways, it'll be the McDavid-Pulju show down the road, Pulju might be the only player who can skate nearly as fast as McDavid that we have. Nurse might be somewhat close.

No one touches McDavids speed with the puck though, he's faster with the puck than without.

He did. The Canucks always pull this garbage in pre-season games against the Oilers.

Bro that looked to me like a Dman just stepping up, McDavid just does what he does.

Huttons a clean player.

I know ... this thread makes no sense. There's probably almost as many McDavid fans on the Canucks board as there are on the Oilers. ha ha. Such a fun player to watch.

There is a mainboard thread already...

And even that is funny because it is a meaningless game.

Canucks taking runs at Oilers however, not so meaningless.

I can post Khaira laying out Gudbranson too if you want, that was hilarious.

And losing doesn't bother as much anymore obviously.

I know, you guys are some of his biggest fans. I've met lots of Canucks fans and they almost seem like bigger fans of his than some Oiler fans .

You guys actually get to watch him game in and game out more than other teams. Don't worry about it, that was just Hutton stepping up and getting side stepped. Definitely don't think he was going for a knee on knee Marchment style.

Yes, the one I created...

Yes, we specifically ice our goons against you Oilers. You think this is bad? this is pre-season..just wait until the Sedins start roughing things up. You'll have to bring this thread back to the main page.

Hall was considered a clean player before he caught clutterbuck in almost exactly the same way.

And this isn't about calling Hutton dirty. He made a silly mistake and McJesus walked him.
