Around the league part 2

[Ollie Weeks]

Faust is in Seattle doing the Kraken/Avs game tonight?

Hopefully he fits like a glove and he takes his talents to who-gives-a-crap opolous

 

[Herby]

Faust is so much better doing national broadcasts. I actually think he is one of the better guys between the two US networks .

Him and Fox just have no chemistry at all in the booth and the blatant homerism/cheerleading is so bad after years of having Miller call an objective game. Fox is also much better when he does games not involving the Kings, when he can objectively analyze, which he isn’t capable of doing with the Kings.

Tkachuk penalty at the end of the 1st has to be the stupidest penalty of the playoffs so far. What a clown.

 

[LAKings88]

Anyone else have a terrible feed with tnt?

 

[bouncesonly]

Looks like the old nbcsports crew is now doing the tnt broadcast? Which is way better than the espn garbage.

 

[LAKings88]

Will Ulmark get a game for the blocker hand?

 

[lumbergh]

Makar is back this team might just go all the way again if they can just stay healthy. I like their chances. MacKinnon is incredible.

If I had to choose I might pick MacKinnon over McDavid. The guy seems to be juiced every shift, plays like his hair is on fire.

it's 85 outside and the Oilers have to walk 2 blocks to the arena because that's where they booked their hotel rooms. And they're drinking coffee, in suits.

 

[Bandit]

Oilers fans thinking the league is out to get them clearly aren’t watching Dallas/Minny.

 

[Bandit]

This might just be the year Toronto finally gets out of the first round. Thanks Tampa.

 

[Shellz]

Let’s see how Tampa does after giving up a 3 goal lead. Heading into OT

Also I hate TBS … the captions are on and have no idea how to remove them. Why there automatically on is beyond me.

 

[Bandit]

Matt Nieto from Moustache Beach.

 

[Shellz]

Welp. Leafs win.

Also, I got the captions off …woo

 

[Moses Doughty]

Can't believe Toronto actually managed to reverse the 4-1 jokes. They might beat the hell out of Tampa in game 5

 

[Herby]

Would we still turn down Mitch Marner for free?

 

[unicornpig]

ty Tampa for letting the kings off the hook for biggest chokejob in the 2023 playoffs.

 

[Zero Pucks Given]

ty Tampa for letting the kings off the hook for biggest chokejob in the 2023 playoffs.

At least we lasted more than 5 minutes in OT.

Get on our level, Tampa.

 

[Herby]

I can't even remember what ridiculous draft haul it was that Tampa gave up for Tanner Jeannot but whatever it was, yikes. He looks like he can't keep up.

Everytime these tougher guys who show any ability whatsoever are traded at the deadline, the team getting them always ridiculously overpays in these unicorn hunts.

 

[KingsFan7824]

Would we still turn down Mitch Marner for free?

I think Leafs fans wanted to blow the team up after the first period of Game 1.

 

[Nasti]

On the bright side, it’ll be a hell of a lot funnier if the Leafs lose the series now.

 

[Steve Zissou]

Should have still been a major - Play long done and intent to injury with McCann not eligible/knowing a hit was coming.

 

[Scottkmlps]

Yeah, don't know how they figured to make that only a 2 minute minor. That's just a brutal call.

 

[Herby]

It's close, way more dangerous than the Dumba one.

I think Makar probably thought the puck was still in play, but it wasn't, and the officials shouldn't be in the business of interpreting intent, the puck was out of play and he hit him causing an injury, so I'd probably lean towards a 5 minute major.

I agree.
