Around the NHL - Part XLI - (Playoffs Edition)

[Clark Kellogg]

Any video of this?

I don’t think so. It’s not the things they put in highlight clips.

 

[TheDirtyH]

lmao that draisitl penalty. hate that guy so glad the kings got that

 

[LeetchisGod]

Kempe is the real deal. Really impressive late first round pick.

 

[mike14]

McDavid remembering he led the league in goals this season
Drai remembering he's a meathead (although it was a soft call)

 

[Row I Goon]

Kempe’s goal off that rebound was a thing of beauty

 

[Boris Zubov]

Not only is Draisaitl a prick, he's also a complete knuckle dragger who's prone to melting down. Takes a wicked 2 handed to Doughty's shins during the celebration of the McDavid goal, which gives the Kings a PP & they scored almost instantly to tie it.

That was the right call. He's been doing shit like this all season & got away with similar shit in the first two games. Glad they finally made him pay for it.

I'm not going to say it was the wrong call, because I have no problem with stuff like that getting called (and I don't really like Drai), but compared to what's already been let go in that series, plus what I think we'll see by the end of the game, it was soft

Reminds me of Malkin

Have to score on a 2 on 0. They will regret that big time.

That was awful execution.

 

[mike14]

That Kings 2 on 0 looked like early season Rongos

Would you like it better if they called it Unsportsmanlike Conduct? Because at some point, enough is enough of that salty bullshit.

I don't really care as I'm not going to be watching to the end of this one, so they can call as many as they want.
Was just making an initial observation that based on what had been let go, to me it was a 'soft' call

Fair enough. It was soft in the sense they let much worse go, but if you do dumb shit like that you're just daring the refs to make a call. Just celebrate the goal & skate back to the bench.

Remember Draisatl did something similar to Tuba at MSG back early in the season when we were floundering & coughed up a lead late in the game. At some point the refs are going to be looking for that, so stop being a dipshit.

 

[Glen Sathers Cigar]

I was just gonna post about it...

Can't believe they gave him 8.5 for 8 YEARS...

They gave Horvat the same contract as Zibanejad lmfao

 

[bl02]

Zucc still has it. Damn.

 

[JRinNYC]

Zucc still has it. Damn.

Hopes he can get a hatty tonight.

 

[bl02]

I wonder if Dean Evason tries to be the smartest guy in the room and play Fleury in game 4 for an automatic loss.

 

[New York RKY]

Good job Minny!

 

[The Crypto Guy]

Remember when we would have gotten the Stars first round pick if they had re-signed Zucc? They didn't. So it's SO nice to see Zucc light them up tonight in a 5-1 loss

 

[Glen Sathers Cigar]

Reminds me of Malkin

Very similar to Malkin. Incredibly skilled and scary player offensively who is also the dirtiest player on the ice and could have his wires cross at any moment and cheap shot someone.

 

[Glen Sathers Cigar]

What a terrible penalty by Nugent-Hopkins to give the Kings a PP and they score.

 

[JRinNYC]

Crazy what’s going on with the EDM v LAK game. This might not count.

 

[Megustaelhockey]

Lol NHL trying to find every conceivable way to take excitement out of the game.

This should be a goal.

I mean, when is that play even reviewable before tonight? WTF.
