Drysattle had both legs...they just didn't work in the defensive zone.
I didn't think it was possible to hate them more....
It is wrong of me to hope that Zadorov 'scheifeles' mcturvid tonight???

It's really unfortunately that Trouba didn't seriously injure himself there

Based on the rise of UFC and other fighting forms, I'm not surprised. Hockey would probably have more casuals watching if there was more brutal hits and brutal fights.
Not sure how hockey fans would feel though.
I mean, I don't wish anything stupid stuff like Trouba but solid hit which Zado can deliver I'd be delighted to see. Just good old tough hit delivered right.

That's a Saturday morning cartoon level missed hit right there!
Everyone knows it's spelled Dry Saddle.

Lucky he wasn't paralyzed ram-manning his head into the glass. Dude won't get what he deserves until he either ends someone's career/kills them, or himself.

NHL officiating is so comically stupid sometimes. Tkachuk starts all that. Swipes and Swayman, which starts a scrum. Then it's basically over, and he rams into another Bruin which causes more shit. Instead of him getting a penalty, they give it to the Burins player for "ripping an opponents helmet off".
Dumb as f***.
LOL and Marchand just blew him up as I type this.

That Marchand hit on Tkachuk was a thing of beauty.

Trouba is the first player in a long time where if he broke his own neck throwing one of those hits it would be hard to even feel bad for him and not think he just hardcore hit the karmic find out phase of FAFO

Last time he took a hit that hard in the playoffs, he disappeared for the rest of the series.
I bet he still sees Zad's in his dreams.
Man Marchand is throwing some big hits out there.

Botson looks great, and confident with Swayman backstopping them.

Sportsnet gave some props to Makar while watching Panthers PP. He said something like you should've seen Makar out there he's a wizard at making those shot go through. Damn we're lucky !
Boston still remains a mystery to me. You're not supposed to be this good without high end centers.

Garry Galley in the Jets-Avs series - here is an in depth analysis of everything the Jets need to do to get going and win. Blatantly disappointed in the results
Garry Galley in the Bruins-Panthers series - have you seen that Cale Makar kid who is not playing in this series? He’s the best

They need to play simpler hockey and forecheck. They’ve forgotten their identity and what made them successful last year. Crash the net and win battles

Blues maybe? ROR played a high end level that year though obviously
RoR was probably the weakest 1C in recent times, but in 19 he was so good defensively, his line dominated everyone.
Edit: also Boston doesn't have anyone like RoR on their team right now.

Blues and Caps won the cup without high end 1C. Backstrom and ROR are very good players but neither is a high end 1C
Caps with Backstrom also another team. I don’t think you can call Backstrom a high end 1C

It's pretty rare for a team to win without a higher end 1C. But I hesitate to try to educate you on that lest you say I'm not letting you voice your opinion then calling me Hitler.
