I wanted to go to bed too

I am always down for some neutral team playoff overtime.

Markov got a misconduct for spearing Nash. When did that happen?

It was when Zucc and Gallagher were wrestling with about 30 seconds left. Markov speared him in the nuts right in front of one of the refs away from the scrum.

 

[Stasis]

If he responds, he's whiny and rattler, if he doesn't he's too soft and a push over. It's not a battle he can win I think.

EDIT: Holy crap Parise ties it

I think McDavid is handling it WAY better than early Crosby so far. We'll see I guess. I don't see Crosby the same way as before either, he definitely changed a lot of that.

Hall of Fame play right there.

Nope. If Pavs is smart he'll keep at it. McDavid will have to count on the refs deciding they want to protect a superstar

 

[Stasis]

Things that are/would be awesome to see in these playoffs:

McDavid (who I haven't really see much of this season).

Zucc fighting Gallagher. I want it. A real bout.

 

[Coldnoodle]

Brent Bruns goat.

Blues strategy of scoring a goal and playing defense for the rest of the game didn't pay off? 🤷🏻🤷🏻🤷🏻

 

[Marvie_3]

Lucic looks like garbage out there

Its not like hes going to hurt the Oilers long term though. Once 2023 rolls the Oilers will be home free.

Edit: Lucic making an impact right as I post this. :lol

 

[zroid]

ahaha Lucic

Oh as someone who has no skin in the game, Pavelski is doing exactly what you would want him to do.

 

[Line_HTX]

Good to see Lucic is still an ineffective Pile of Poo.

 

[Socreges]

Canucks suck but I love playoff hockey 👍👍

The Mike No strategy.

 

[Holiday]

And here I was hoping they wouldn't get swept at least.

 

[Coldnoodle]

McDavid is a cheat code.

And he's only going to get better D;

 

[Socreges]

That was actually a good defensive play by Braun...

 

[Coldnoodle]

McJesus already an Oilers legend.

 

[Zombie James]

McJesus already an Oilers legend.

One assist. Truly one of the great Oilers legends.

 

[Coldnoodle]

I'm calling it now.

McDavid overtime winner.

 

[Marvie_3]

One assist. Truly one of the great Oilers legends.

Right up there with Fernando Pisani and Ethan Moreau.

 

[BTails]

OT! Oilers truly blessing us with some good playoff hockey.

 

[Holiday]

Why is Upshall playing in OT?

 

[ShinRPGamer]

Oilers will lose within the first 5 minutes on the power play.

 

[Line_HTX]

If there is no sweep, I'm gonna riot.

 

[Socreges]

Blues PP in OT

Spoiler

...1 shot

Edit- yep

 

[Coldnoodle]

Tarasenko golazo pls.

 

[Holiday]

Spurgeon selling hard lol

 

[hwalker84]

Almost got into a fight at the penguins game with a fellow fan. Dude didn't really want it.

Renaud Lavoie‏ @renlavoietva 57m
Steven Kampfer signed a two year extension with the Rangers. $650 000 AAV (2 way) #tvasports

Our problems on defense solved forever!

Whats his potential playoff matchup in those 2 seasons looking like?

 

[Coldnoodle]

GOOD GOD

 

[MetatronM]

Looking dire for year 2.

 

[Holiday]

There's no good ending here for me, since the last 2 times the Blues have won a game 1 in OT, they've choked away the series.

 

[Coldnoodle]

Oilers legend Fernando Pisani.

 

[zroid]

Schwartz has got ALL the moves

 

[Socreges]

Schwartz has got ALL the moves

Yeah that was a good shift. Had zero support as Blues aren't skating as a team.

Wild PP. This is over...

 

[Coldnoodle]

Oilers look overmatched.

 

[Holiday]

Terrible step up.

 

[DrForester]

Two OT games in night one...

Wish I could watch the game on the NHL TV app so I could multi-screen.

 

[Coldnoodle]

BEST KARLSSON

MCBUST

 

[Zombie James]

Ouch, Oilers.

 

[BTails]

I called the Oilers loss before the game started. Poor Canada.

 

[geeko]

THE MELKMAN DELIVERS!!!!!

 

[Acid08]

LOL

 

[calder]

Good job Oilers, way to utterly fail to make a single pass out of your zone for 5 straight minutes.


Now to see if jake Allen can get the Blues a totally undeserved win here

 

[MetatronM]

Good, back to only one game to pay attention to.

 

[DrForester]

And my TV goes...
