The 80s Oilers are the reason the NHL went away from the 2-3-2 after they embarrassed the Isles & Flyers in consecutive seasons.
See, my whole thing is, if you got bodied, you got bodied.

I actually like 2-3-2 better for the home team because if the series is close, both elimination games are at home.

It must be nice to be one win away from a Stanley Cup win. I don't remember and I doubt we'll be there for a looooooong, long time.

thats how you win in the NHL... by scoring goals and playing well IN FRONT of your goalie...

NOt buy paying a goalie $10M+ to steal 1g games

I'm a huge advocate for it coming back...I was just explaining why this harebrained league made a knee-jerk decision 40 f***ing years ago & decided it was set in stone.
