If it were me I’d be more upset about him holding Jarnkrok’s stick so that he couldn’t defend Cousins’ shot, but to each their own

ALL ABOARD THE SCOTLAND HYPE TRAIN!

CHOO CHOO
In other news, delighted to see the Knights win the post-brawl game. Edmonton's PP is so good, and the rest of their game so average that the series feels like it's going to come down to how badly the refs swallow their whistles for the likely game 7 in Vegas

Yeah it’s not really clear that Florida actually did look very good that series. They played the same hockey as the Carlyle Leafs: dump the puck out to the neutral zone, and pray your goalie stops enough pucks while you also get enough counter attack chances off neutral zone turnovers.

Knights put on a “how to hold the lead” clinic last night, Bruce Cassidy may be hated by all his former players but he’s a hell of a coach. There was a couple shifts late in the game where Vegas spent over two minutes in Edmontons zone and the Oilers were just skating around.

The team is good enough that it doesn’t even matter that they are playing their 4th string goalie Adin Hill backed up by Jonathan Quick

i remember one of the wings championship VHS tapes- i think it was the 97 one- and they had Larionov on talking about how Scotty is actually great and he's sad that no one gets to see the fun side of him.

Now, that hits a bit different after hearing that his daughter's were driven to eating disorders by his insane parenting expectations.

I'm pretty sure he's yelling because his team just scored in overtime to go to the ECF, but it's funnier to see the posts where Leafs fans complain about him not being classy.

even if hes yelling directly in his face to make him feel bad, who cares, its sports, its funny and awesome.
and if and when the leafs beat him they should do similar.

If you watch the replay he's just yelling because they won. The spot he's in is incidental.

Funny pic though.

And if they get really butt hurt about it, they can just punch the guy in the face. Actually, he's the type of guy you wouldn't mind seeing get punched in the face, but he's gonna punch back. Just like Corey Perry, you should get a power play and a refund from DOPS of the maximum allowed by the CBA for doing it. Gudas is an annoying low key dirty player who's also really good. Like Suter, but he can skate and pass still.

maybe there's something scheduled in the arena earlier in the day? who knows..

**could also be some sort of scheduling rule about minimum time between games starting late in a series.. like there has to be 48 hours between games or w/e.

Maybe it’s just me but having 2 of the best and most exciting players in the world play from 10:20 pm until 1 am on the east coast on a Sunday night is bad business. Just make the game at 8 pm eastern.

So people going to the game don’t have time to do anything after work except go straight to the arena?

Believe it or not the east coast is not the be all end all of the universe.
