Around the League: You Like Mammoth?

[valkynax]

Not a huge VGK fan but I don't mind them that much.

Would be pretty interesting to see all 3-2 teams advancing tonight.

 

[SeawaterOnIce]

The Kings are getting massively outplayed. They were gifted 2 goals but are probably going to get blown out tonight. Turning it off.

 

[Attack Vector]

I’m legitimately amazed that Edmonton is actually going to roll with Calvin Pickard as their starting goaltender. Teams like Colorado are going to dissect him like surgeon on a frog.

They got within 2 goals of winning the Stanley Cup with Stuart Skinner.

I find the Ancestor Simulation argument for parallel realities totally ridiculous

I'm going to let you in on a little secret:

Their other goaltender is Stuart Skinner.

Stuart Skinner had his moments of brilliance but Calvin Pickard is a goalie you would be scared to even play with in NHL 25. Like he’s built to be a mid goalie.

I still think skinner is more the answer than pickard. I think neither goalies are that great, though.

Am pretty sure every time a wave function collapses, yet another reality is created

Allowing Darnell Nurse to walk into the slot and score is a crime punishable by elimination

Kings shit

Podkolzin has 4 points in 6 playoff games lmao

 

[wonton15]

Good news is Calvin Pickard is their starter.

Built for the playoffs

 

[SillyRabbit]

We all called it in Game 3.

Oilers were winning the next 4 straight.

Hiller ended their season with that challenge.

 

[WTG]

That was just awful coverage.

 

[wavaxa2]

If the Sens file an official protest, maybe they can nullify Nylander's goals and get the win.

Couldn't be any worse than Hiller's dumbass goal challenge.

 

[BenningHurtsMySoul]

Unfortunately I see the Oilers most likely going back to the Finals again.

 

[Bubbles]

This is the kind of game that makes coaches bald.

cant see them beating any of vegas, colorado or dallas.

No way their goaltending gets them to the finals.

Edmonton probably would have come back from 3-0 anyways.

Hiller exhausted his group by shortening the bench. It's the opposite of Willie D's coaching malpractice we saw in 2015.

 

[M2Beezy]

I dunno I think LVGK or Dallas offense should destroy their goal tending

Whens Elkholm suppose to return? Thatll be a big boost for them

 

[andora]

Kuemper is a turd

 

[Bgav]

the avs are so f***ing good. Would be a shame for them to lose this game

 

[SillyRabbit]

Edmonton probably would have come back from 3-0 anyways.

Somehow that would annoy me less.

Because then it's at least something historic, and you can give the Oilers credit for an insane comeback.

This comeback is also pretty impressive but it leaves this bad taste in your mouth because it feels like Hiller handed them all the momentum on a silver platter.
