FRANKIE! FRANKIE! FRANKIE! Never imagined he'd get a shutout after the way game 1 went, although I did think he played well in relief and was hoping he'd just match that performance tonight. But he exceeded. Only bad play was when he basically went to center ice to try to play a puck for some reason. I don't know if it's wishful thinking but it looks like McDrai are running out of steam. You can't expect them to carry a whole team forever and it looks like the load has finally gotten too heavy for them

goddamn edmonton looked bad, they barely tested the avs goalie Avs did a great job defensively but edmonton just looked like they thought they'd skate through the avs every rush and failed repeatedly. Just...a terrible job

the absolute best part is the cap hell they are in next year thanks to Nurse's 9.25M contact kicking in. this was their shot.

Why is everyone counting them out? This is the playoffs. Have you heard? The Rangers got humiliated by the Pens two games in a row and looked out and now are up 1-0 in the ECF. Next two games are in Edmonton. They could easily win at least one of them and get back in the series

mennoknight posted:the absolute best part is the cap hell they are in next year thanks to Nurse's 9.25M contact kicking in. this was their shot. Nah. They'll lose one of Kane/Jesse/Kailer most likely but they really only have a year of cap issues, and if they offload Kassian and/or Barrie those issues mostly go away without losing one of the aforementioned 3.

It's not a series until someone wins a road game. McDavid tend to bounce back from weak performances with a dominant night. I expect folks will be singing a different tune in 48 hours.

Cartoon Man posted:Are there any sports journalist hot takes yet that McDavid is a playoff choker and fraud? Inject that poo poo right into my veins when they get written. I've been seeing a lot of takes that he's been getting absolutely worked by Makar. You know, the guy that's getting paid less than Nurse . Also the guy that Kane has been trying real hard to kill Also Woodcroft apparently cried about how the refs were giving the Avs too many powerplays, after his team started gooning it up. I hope that doesn't sit well with the refs, that some doofus rear end interim coach criticized them after that poo poo. They should give the Avs a 10-0 powerplay advantage next game to send a message DrunkPanda fucked around with this message at 14:27 on Jun 3, 2022 |

DrunkPanda posted:Right?! HE ADAPTED. Bednar literally rode the sinking Nemeth ship all the way to another 2nd round playoff exit last season and never even CONSIDERED swapping him out for a healthy Byram It’s easy to say Gallant “adapted” when, in this case, he adapted by swapping out the bad gritty veteran with a not-as-bad gritty veteran. But I have no doubt that if we hadn’t picked up Braun, Nemeth would still be playing, and the vastly superior option of Zac Jones would be sitting in the press box.

The forwards played him well in the neutral zone and funneled him to the outside and the defense then just pasted him into the boards after crossing the blue line. All. Night. Long.

He had that one semi break in the first after a save at the other end IIRC makar ended that with a nice poke check

Gotta be scary as gently caress going 1 on 1 with McD at speed. https://twitter.com/hayyyshayyy/status/1532517038928830473 To Wonderllama's point though, he just had good spacing and kept him to the outside. But gently caress that is fast for backward skating.

It's just funny when the Oilers are crying about refs calling penalties on them when they were throwing elbows, crosschecks, sticks to the Avs players heads all game. It's like they don't realize that those things aren't allowed in the rules.

He is worth as much as when Pittsburgh traded for a Douglas Murray rental, but all of hockey media has to continue pumping Lou’s tires. Guy hasn’t been competent at his job in like two decades but you must respect him and be clean shaven while he fills your roster out with a bunch of guys in their mid-30’s on multi-year deals

I don't think Jay Woodcroft mentioning his player being headshotted and it not being called means he thinks headshots are allowed in the rules.
