Around the League - 2022-23 Season Edition

[ULF_55]

Oilers just have to win the next game and they're back on even grounds with home ice.

Doesn't seem like a big deal either way does it?

 

[RunItBackAgain]

We're told routinely that it's too bad and it's the playoffs when calls go against us, so hopefully Oiler fans aren't expecting a lot of cards and flowers in the mail over this.

Cards and flowers? Better be at least a free bye to the cup next season, these are the 2020 MVP and the greatest player ever to bless the universe we're talking about!

So crazy he had back to back seasons un the .800's then puts up these numbers this year and into the playoffs. Guy knows how to turn it on

He was playing hurt for quite a while before finally getting hip surgery last year.

I still don't think any video has conclusive 100% evidence that the stick and pick made contact. But really it was a legit goal, to call back a goal on such flimsy contact goes against the spirit of the game. Is this the kind of thing we want to carry the day? A glance off a stick/a glove/a skate. Play the damn game, reverse the egregious and obvious infractions but to spend 10 minutes looking and praying for the "good" camera angle kills the game. Edmonton, you didn't get jobbed - you lost because your players made some terrible in game decisions and couldn't stay out of the box. Try and play well enough that a micro glance of a puck off of a stick doesn't decide your entire fate. I mean really now, you have the 2 best players on the planet, surely they can put things out of reach so the refs and the league can't interfere with your inherent right to the cup.

The 2nd camera view on this video looks like it does hit the toe of his stick because you can see the toe of the stick move a bit, but at the same time f*** em because if it was the other way around they'd be saying it wasn't a high stick and we should just play better.

I'm hoping LA finishes them up soon. McDavid has a season for the ages, and does zero in the playoffs. You just hate to see it.

It's sad, I would love to see McDavid win a cup, just not there.

 

[PROUD PAPA]

Could be a wild one in the Peg.

 

[Jojalu]

Wow.

This Vegas/Winnipeg series is getting intense

 

[PROUD PAPA]

Wouldn’t mind seeing somebody kick the crap out of Scheifele. Don’t mind the Jets but they have a couple guys who would look better with a black eye.

 

[keonsbitterness]

That should have been interference.

Scheifele is one of the biggest d-bags in the league

Interesting that Sportsnet doesn’t feel the need to get a former Kings assistant coach on the panel to get an LA perspective like they do with our series.

Sportsnet also doesn’t feel the need to have a former Golden Knights assistant coach on their panel! Curious, you’d think if they were so committed to impartiality they would’ve found someone to provide a different perspective in the Edmonton and Winnipeg series. Well, nevertheless.

 

[Peasy]

While it is weird, I felt like Lalonde was giving the Leafs the most amount of praise out of any of them.

 

[RealisticLeaf55]

Jack Eichel is living rent free in Helle's head, along with the "White out" fanbase. You love to see it.

 

[willmma]

What do you guys think? Does it touch his stick?

Well now it's funnier to say: yes.

 

[RealisticLeaf55]

Jets getting slapped. Kolesar smacks home the rebound. 4-1 Vegas.

 

[3blizzard4]

9 shots for the Jets end of second. Yikes.

 

[Menzinger]

Looking like this series could be the Knights to lose.... jets don't look at all threatening

 

[Seath The Scaleless]

Eichel through 67 regular season games: 2 PPG

Tonight: 2 PPG

He has been a beast today

 

[Seath The Scaleless]

Not a great goal to give up for Brossoit. Jets have life

 

[Stephen]

To be fair, their Stanley Cup was beating the Leafs. Here's them hoisting their air cup.

 

[Seath The Scaleless]

Wtf Vegas. So bad at clearing the zone.

 

[willmma]

Peg with 3 goals in the third to push it to OT.
Wow.

Imagine having a 4-1 lead in the third an blowing it....
I'll shut up now.

 

[RealisticLeaf55]

Jets tie it. Gotta give them credit for the come back but they continue to play like this, they will lose the series. Last goal was entirely puck luck.
.

 

[MSZ]

Wtf Vegas. So bad at clearing the zone.

They just got Leafed. That dreadful 4-1 lead in the 3rd.

 

[RealisticLeaf55]

Dubois with an absolute goon move. Powerplay for Vegas!!!

To be fair, he probably saved a goal. Stone was staring at an open net
