Yeah but is the feud between GoAwayPanarin and kovazub94 a work or a shoot?

Either way, bullshit like that is why this company is in the damn shape it's in, brother!

I could see this going 6 or 7. Oettinger has been a complete wild card & more shaky than steady. If McDavid starts to score some goals & Edm can play defense the way the did in Games. 6 & 7, I think they can push it to the limit.

People are sleeping on Edmonton. They're for real this year.

they can't defend worth shit and barely beat Vancouver with their 3rd string goalie. They are going to get pounded by Dallas although I hope it goes 7 and Kane does some dumb shit to someone

Mercogliano?
i wouldn't be shocked but i think Dallas is the favorite and will win in 6

They allowed 4 more goals all year than Dallas did and 7 less than Dallas at 5v5. Their defense is fine. This is an outdated take. The only team in the league with a better 5v5 CA60 than Edmonton was Carolina.
As a Rangers fan, I'd still want the Oilers in a potential finals matchup over the Stars. Oilers depth and goaltending is inferior to the Stars.

I would prefer Dallas because we want the series to have a lot of special teams and we have a much smaller advantage there against Edmonton than against Dallas.

Be careful what you wish for...I recall walking out of MSG after beating the Devils in Game 7 of the 1st round in '92. Fans were thrilled we weren't facing the Caps (who beat us in the previous 2 playoffs) screaming We Want Mario!!!. I was like, no we don't.
Narrator: They really didn't.
Even though Mario only played a game & a half before Graves broke his hand, Jagr picked up the slack and made our lives hell. The bottom lines is when facing 2 of the best players in the world on the same team, things can go sideways in a hurry. I'm just rooting for the west to go 7 rough & tumble games. If we take care of our own business & beat Florida, I'll worry about the West winner in 2 weeks.

This is old news.
Edmonton was 9th in expected goals against and 7th in shots against.
Their defense has been fantastic in the playoffs. Vancouver took just 21 shots per game against them.

This is lame. There should be a league wide trade moratorium until the playoffs conclude. Maybe it wasn't realistic, but McDonagh would've be a decent Lindgren replacement for a year or two, yet we had no chance to negotiate with Nashville because we're still playing.

I'd love him for the 3rd pair tho! ))) I'll get my coat...

Getting it done early does seem like it'd make life easier for the player, but yeah, trades mid-playoffs feel lame.

Lost in all this is that TBL just gave up pretty much the same thing they gave us to get McD in the first place.

Drury asleep at the wheel again. McDonagh is the secret weapon we need to beat Florida.
