GDT: 2022 NHL Stanley Cup Playoffs

[Sean Garrity]

And there's your Mike Smith horribly timed mistake.

 

[TheGoodShepard1]

Mike Smith’s problem are that his blunders are so noticeably bad and they always seem to come at the worst possible times, either they’re backbreakers for his team or big momentum swingers for the other team. Been a career-long issue

As I said

 

[Mr Rogers]

Holy ****

 

[dracom]

series isn't technically over yet, but it might as well be. Oilers are done

 

[bsu]

Both teams goaltending situations are a joke lol.

 

[Paul4587]

Both teams goaltending situations are a joke lol.

For the Avs it doesn’t matter, they’re winning the Cup no matter who is in net for them. A d core that good masks bad goaltending.

 

[ohcomeonref]

I can't believe the Oilers aren't even making this a series. The goaltending and defense... Wow.

 

[Mr Rogers]

RNH was awful tonight.

I also don’t think the Oilers are particularly deep up front. Better than previous years and some other teams sure, but still not great or anything

Lol nurse scored on himself.

Oilers screwed any chance of Mcdavid winning a cup with that contract

I see a Nurse and I see a Makar, the first one with the higher contract. It's insane. And for me Makar is just a beast. What a gifted player.

 

[c4rcy]

Makar is proving people wrong about his defensive game as well - he looks extremely comfortable defending rushes by McD and Drai - and then subsequently escapes attackers to turn it into offense.

I think without Josi hitting the 90 point barrier, Makar is the easy Norris for me.

They could use a Nick Paul type center in their bottom 6 but overall their forwards are very good IMO. Top 6 in the league even. Only teams forwards I take over theirs are Tampa, Toronto, Colorado, Florida, St. Louis and maybe NYR. I take their forwards over Carolina/Boston/PIT/Washington/Minnesota pretty easily

They just lack a close to elite goalie and a close to elite defenseman. If they had that, they could win a cup

 

[AngelDuck]

Been a pretty lame conference finals so far on both sides. Edmonton is done and never had much of a chance out there. We will see if Tampa can make it a series. I think they will. But not having Point is just a massive blow to them

It's really unfortunate for them that they lost a young minute muncher in Klefbom to injury. He wasn't elite but they could certainly use another steadying presence right now.

 

[dracom]

should be suspended but you never know with the DOPS.

 

[The Midnight Burrito]

Kadri got hurt?

That is certainly some information.

 

[Static]

Kadri got hurt?

That is certainly some information.

In the grand scheme of things one of those guys getting hurt and the other a suspension is a win for everyone.

Watching Nick Paul in these playoffs makes me think he would be a great line mate for either Zegras or Terry. Paul and someone like Middleton would be my ideal targets this off-season for our team. Sure they both would need overpayment but we have the cap space.

Middleton is a plug but Paul I agree.

That pass by Kucherov was something else. What a player

 

[bsu]

Perry still more useful than half our roster

Watching Perry makes me wonder how great Getz would have been on a good team in a supporting role.

Very good, probably. But it ended pretty well in its own right. That last assist at home was pretty cool. And he’s the only Ducks legend to spend his whole career in Anaheim. That’s something to be grateful for

Oh I agree. On all points.
But man, he could have been a beast playing less and in the right role. Hell, Maroon still is and he’s not even in the ballpark of Getz.

But lifetime Duck is pretty cool!!
