God, it's such good hockey, though. If the flames/ducks game are half as good, it's good hockey every day.

No, that's a name I recognize, that exists. There has not existed at any point before now a Melker Karlsson. Who is this man? Why did he sneak onto the roster of a playoff team? Is he Erik's lovely brother? I need answers!

The Blues did not deserve that win. How Allen kept up with the level of shots in that game is just... god drat

Wild tonight remind me of the Blues a couple years ago. DOminate possession but can't score to save their life.

Also, Jori Lehtera better not see the ice next game. That was the worst personal effort I've seen in a long time. Bad defense, absolutely zero stamina, can't win any puck battles, skating like a 50 year old beer leaguer. Put in Sanford.

SOG in the WIld-Blues game was 52-26 in favor of the Wild. Holy poo poo Allen.

I got to attend the Oilers game tonight, and man, that place was just crazy. I've never had the chance to experience something like that before, and man oh man, it was so much fun to be a part of it. I'm so happy to have been a part of the crowd tonight. As for the game itself, it was not as great. It had a good first period, but after that, things went bad. It sucks the Oilers only decided to show up for 20 minutes tonight. If they had showed up for the full 60 they would've won. Hopefully they can bounce back on Friday.

No.
But in double checking, I uncovered a photo of Erik in a Jokerit advertising board jersey, and it made me realise what an "okay, you can have ads now" Sens jersey would look like.

hmm, yes, that seems to be the case

Also, I'd like it very much if Tim Peel did not ref another game in this series because holy poo poo the reffing was awful tonight. Several "Refs You Suck" chants went on throughout the night too.

What'll really bake your noodle is realizing he was 5 goals and 3 assists in post-season while on the roster of an NHL Playoff Finalist team last year. :v:

he's been on the Sharks for, like, the past 3 or 4 years I wanna say. I don't think he's related to Erik.

Only got to watch highlights but those mostly looked like good games.

Price v. Lundqvist is going to be great.

Jake Allen is mysteriously good and that series suddenly seems like it might not be the most boring.

Sharks showing their old man resiliency but the Oilers don't look like playoff newcomers.

Columbus needs to gets their poo poo together or that series will be over quickly.

Boston and Ottawa are, uh, teams that are in the playoffs.

I guess that's true. I'd really only be happy with the Flames winning if a Canadian team had to win.
