Around the league part 2

[Herby]

McDavid is the most dominant athlete in major North American sports. It's close with Mahomes, but the difference between McDavid and #2 (probably MacKinnon) is bigger than Mahomes and #2 (probably Burrow). This is Tiger Woods early 2000's like domination.

It's crazy that a playoff scoring record from the pond hockey no defense 1980's, from a guy who was on a super team is even being challenged in 2024, where there is a cap. Imagine McDavid in the 80's or early 90's.

Imagine being a multi millionaire and spending 13 years in Edmonton.

Same as the Dallas and Vancouver series. Edmonton and McDavid start slow and then they turn it around and dominate.

 

[Herby]

Is this even real? At the end of a 2 minute shift too.

At least we will all have three years of playoff memories to draw on when our grandchildren ask us what it was like to watch McDavid.

 

[Bandit]

Nurse. Lol you suck at hockey buddy.

Oh look the 15th penalty in a row against the panthers

 

[Sol]

McDavid is the most dominant player I’ve seen in my lifetime. Hes just so much better than number 2. When Ovi and Crosby were going they were 1 and 2. There’s no number 2. And he’s just so much better than anyone.

 

[johnjm22]

McDavid is a menace out there right now.

 

[kingsholygrail]

Dodgers are sucking too so not much to watch right now.

 

[Omni Owl]

McD is just stupid good, incredible. On another note, Bobrovsky looks like Cam Talbot out there. That last game broke his confidence.

 

[Bandit]

McDavid’s a twat. Stop waving your sticks at him and f***ing hit him. He’s not god and even if he was, f*** god.

 

[AbsentMojo]

McDavid reminds me of Secretariat at the Belmont

If hitting him slowed him down, the whole league would be doing it. The guy knows how to avoid getting hit. He has been the target of every opposing coach since he was 13, he very rarely leaves himself vulnerable to a clean hit.

Going out of the way to hit him is going to either result in a goal or a penalty.

His assist on Perry’s goal was at 1/3 speed at the end of a 2+ minute shift. 3 panthers let him waltz in and make a pass, all just waiving their sticks at him like brain dead monkeys. That wasn’t anything magical. It was the panthers d being shitheads.

Well at least Shohei hit a 476ft homerun.

You've got to make that penalty worth it then. You cant just sit there watching him kick your ass, wear him down.

You saw what Draisaitl did to Barkov earlier in the series, chucky probably needs to return message.

There have been parts of this game that looks like a Kings playoff game. Special teams have been terrible for FLA, 1 shorty, 2 pp goals against , including old man Perry on the pp.

 

[AbsentMojo]

Lets gough

Kachunk is starting to make a difference.. not glamorous like 97 but he's doing stuff

 

[AbsentMojo]

decline it... edit: that was terrible 19.. pew

 

[Bandit]

Nice dive woodchuck. Way to blow a pp for your team.

 

[kingsfan28]

So no embellishment on the penalty at the end of the 2nd, but that is? Bahaha, this league!

 

[Herby]

Probably not smart to sell a trip when you are being hooked.

I normally don't like the embellishments, but that was blatant.

I mean that was a stupid dive by 19.

 

[Bandit]

Rigged.

 

[kingsfan28]

now FLA looks like the Kings with that penalty

 

[Herby]

Maybe Ekholm and Bennett are arguing over which one looks more like Czar Nicholas II.
