Post-Game Talk: Built. Different.

There were a lot of things I didnt like in this game...then the 3rd period and O/T happened.

Some stuff to clean up for game 2 but damn what a finish.
This team is just so damn resilient!

Hes not really the playoff monster hes made out to be.

Been saying this for a while. He’s not a big game player he’s just been on a great team

 

[Dirk Dangler]

Remember when LA’s coach blew a challenge. They fell apart. It completely changed the series and was the beginning of the end for them.

Knobs blew a challenge. It changed the momentum of the game for a period or so. Then our championship caliber team chipped away at the game till they tied it up and won in overtime. Just fantastic.

Florida is no joke. But getting the series lead early is a huge edge. Three more to go.

Leafs fans cheering for y'all. Great game of hockey. With that said, this is why being a Canadian market is such a disadvantage.

First of all, no Carlina Hurricane analyst would do a podcast and talk about how Aho cheats on the faceoff or some other dumb peculiar shit like that.

Second of all, even if they did, it would gain no traction and no one would give a shit.

But it's Edmonton and a Canadian market. So you have the refs turning the game into football with the amount of stops and starts and delays on the faceoff. Refusing to drop the puck, phantom dropping it repeatedly, re-doing them, constantly kicking someone out.

It was wayyyyyy more than normal. Refs making it about themselves. Idk how these guys do it bc I woulda been losing my mind. You could see RNH spazzing at the ref. So annoying how some analyst can impact the game from their bedroom or little studio.

100% agree with everything you said

You guys must hate Florida as much as we do. I really hope the Oilers kill em and end this

He had the reputation when he was on Calgary. He did nothing and the team did nothing. The media just loves him.

 

[Drivesaitl]

He was f***ing relentless too. When he came to Draisaitl’s defence…chef’s kiss. Panthers wanted no part of him

Thought that was a big moment too. Plus the way he just screamed in there. Was like Superman cartoon swooping in. Some crazy stuff. Like Kane took one instant to be there. Drai skates away. "yeah Panthers, thats the way it is" lol

 

[foshizzle]

"We were down 2-0 to TO"

This ain't the Leafs, Paul.

We punch you back

 

[Pip]

Speaking of underperforming I do think even after a win you gotta consider taking Frederic out of the lineup. I wish I could clip the amount of times he struggled to the move the puck out. He maybe laid one hit of any consequence and showed no finish in the opportunities he was handed. I think he’s a good player but I’m done waiting for him to find his game.

 

[foshizzle]

What happened to Tkachuk and his rat shit? Buddy was a ghost out there tonight with Kane shadowing him.

Ekblad wasn’t pulling his tough guy shit either

 

[Drivesaitl]

"We were down 2-0 to TO"

This ain't the Leafs, Paul.

Doubling down Deboer.

 

[McTonyBrar]

WOOOOO LETS f***ING GOOO!!!! ANOTHER GREAT COME BACK! 3 more Wins. WE CAN DO THIS!!!!

Great game for Skinner and Walman. 76% of Teams who win game 1 in the SCF have won the Cup

 

[Oilhawks]

Leon really likes Kappy too

 

[PULSATING]

Ekholm <3

Loved it

Doubling down Deboer.

I was thinking the same thing

Yep, everyone calling for Skinner in and Frederic out was right. Idk if it’s the injury or maybe the moment is too big for him, Skinner is just better with the puck

[Jimmi McJenkins]

This is great

 

[Pip]

Ekblad wasn’t pulling his tough guy shit either

I refuse to accept that Ekblad is a good defenseman in 2025. I pity whatever teams signs him this summer

 

[Austerlitz]

He was f***ing relentless too. When he came to Draisaitl’s defence…chef’s kiss. Panthers wanted no part of him

I love Kane's scoring. I love his hitting.

But I may love his, 'skate into a scrum and challenge the whole team at once' move more than anything else.

 

[Shizuka]

How cool is that, Draisaitl's parents were right behind the FLA goal when he scored in OT.

 

[Lay Z Boy GM]

One of us

 

[foshizzle]

Skinner is a greasy f*** too. I think almost all his goals this year are from within 10 feet from the crease

 

[Drivesaitl]

I was thinking the same thing

I like alliteration as well so theres that.

Doubling down Deboer's dumb Dallas diatribe.

I want an internet point for that. Or a D.
