NHL December 2016 |OT| Best Christmas Since '93

Jesus Christ was a fucking awful penalty Filppula took there. Has absolutely no room and tries a move and fails then barrels into the goalie. God damn just fucking shoot it.

If Hayes and Miller could finish off even half of their shorthanded chances that they get together every night, they would be leading the league in goals.

They call their two-man PK unit "Power Kill."

The Arizona Coyotes are not very good at ice hockey. We're pretty handily outplaying them in this one, yet it's only a one goal game because:

1) Dan Girardi pointlessly iced the puck which resulted in an offensive sequence for the Coyotes wherein a shot deflected off of Brady Skjei and into the net.

2) Brady Skjei got juked out of his pants by Anthony Duclair before Girardi deflected Duclair's attempted shot past Raanta and into the net.

Good work, boys. Take the rest of the night off.

McDonagh called for being too strong on that play shutting down what would have been a Duclair breakaway. Okay.


And of course the Coyotes score on the resulting power play.

Somehow they don't call anything on Girardi basically fighting his way into the Yotes' goal celebration. Presumably a make up for calling the initial penalty on McDonagh in the first place.
