[Woodrow]

Oilers currently in a playoff spot.

 

[BonMorrison]

Dat Johnson save.

 

[FiveFourteenSixOne]

Makes up for Talbot giving away that game to Calgary earlier this season.

Well that is probably true.

The GWG in the last 10 seconds of that game was just abysmal.

 

[ihaveyuidonttouchme]

my god what a stretch glove save by Johnson on Nyquist's wide open net

 

[StatesideSensFan]

yea, i mean, who knew that in the GAME DAY thread, we would be critiquing certain performances on said game day.

 

[Mr Positive]

Oilers currently in a playoff spot.

and without McDavid, Pouliot and Yakupov. We're also missing our best Dman in Klefbom

 

[Frank the Tank]

Well that is probably true.

The GWG in the last 10 seconds of that game was just abysmal.

Plus him passing the puck right to a Flames player earlier in the game.

 

[Raccoon Jesus]

Oh Hoffman is for sure getting a hatty

 

[syz]

Feel bad for whoever wins the pacific division this year. They'll get to play a central wild card team in the first round while the other two pacific kids get to have a slap fight.

LA will be fine against the Central.

 

[Hockeyfan2390]

Of course Johnson plays like absolute puke against Calgary and comes back and makes a Roy Conn-Smythe like save at the end in this game.

 

[SenzZen]

Doughty showing some frustration after a rough game.

 

[syz]

LA will be fine against the Central.

Doesn't change the fact that their "reward" will be a harder first round match while another, worse pacific team is guaranteed to get to the second round.

Mind you LA is used to making the playoffs as the 7th or 8th seed, so it doesn't really change anything for them.

 

[Little Psycho]

LA will be fine against the Central.

Kings have a 6-1 against the central so far.

 

[DraberlyakMcHallkins*]

Bruins clowned us the final 40 minutes...pure ownage
but Talbot stood tall

first win in Beantown since 1996 lol

boston deserved 3 points out of this one, edmonton probably wants to forget this

hope they go into NY tomorrow pissed off, undeserved win thanks to Talbot

 

[Little Psycho]

Doughty showing some frustration after a rough game.

He played with 3 different dmen tonight. Tough night for the Kings, all their mistakes cost them.

 

[syz]

Doughty showing some frustration after a rough game.

What else is new. Did he spend every break with his palms in the air yelling at an official? Because that's usually what I see when his team is losing.

 

[Blitzkrieg365]

Carey who? Holtby gets the Vezina this year.

 

[Little Psycho]

What else is new. Did he spend every break with his palms in the air yelling at an official? Because that's usually what I see when his team is losing.

No he only does that in important games.

 

[Osprey]

Kings have been tearing it up for the last month but every one of their players is getting judged on only tonight, kinda how it goes around here.

I wonder if you're counting your remark about McNabb wearing a Sens jersey tonight. That was more unfair and judgmental than Everyday's simple and accurate statement that Quick was awful "tonight." I think that you're being too sensitive.

Doughty showing some frustration after a rough game.

It's not simply that, IMO. See today's NHL.com article about how badly he wants to prove that he's worthy of a Norris, especially when playing against recent winners, like Karlsson. I believe that that's why he tried to do too much on a few occasions tonight.

He only judged Quick - and only for tonights performance. Speaking of 'how it goes around here' - flying off the handle and getting it wrong takes first place I'd say...
