Connor gets a game for the "vicious 2-hand to the padded pants with intent to injure".Shocked the league even bothers to talk to Soucy about that play, I still expect and Oiler to also be suspended, for "fairness"

I hope Spector falls down a long flight of stairs, but you do you.Waiting for Stuart Skinner interview this morning just to see how this freaking clown reacted to his own play. Hope Spector breaks him.
You misspelled Campbell.Pickard is going to be our Roloson.
It's his net now and he will run with it.
To be fair, he very briefly looked like he was gonna cry after the 3 goal Canucks comeback.A team often takes on the personality of its coach, it would help if Knob showed a pulse behind the bench. Even keel is great but it’s the Stanley cup playoffs, show some emotion, get fired up or pissed off, your team might show some too.
It's this type of logic that has us in this position.I don’t think Skinner has been that bad. Has he made the big save? No all goals have been good goals Foegele absolutely gifted them one last game the Canucks are not gifting us goals

KK was angry after the Zadorov-bench minor saw off and was vocal and pretty demonstrative. Most angry I've ever seen him. They didn't show him after his star player was getting mauled after final whistle.A team often takes on the personality of its coach, it would help if Knob showed a pulse behind the bench.

Canucks fans crying about it too.
Soucy sucks. At least he’s better than Cole’s been, but he won’t be missed that much. Big (Empty Head) Z was the one that we needed suspended
An Inch away from the Adam's apple.
We need a disposable thug to do what they just did to the two best players on the planet, I guess we're back to that.KK was angry after the Zadorov-bench minor saw off and was vocal and pretty demonstrative.

Hyman?Skinner's cooked. Knoblauch is a bad poker player and I think his post game presser waffling suggests he's moved on to Pickard for game 4. Team has a low bar asking for only average goaltending. Pickard resets the biggest weakness that has been exploited.
I'd move Nugent Hopkins back to Line 1 and reunite the most dominant line in the regular season. Give McDavid back his distributor guy that can help open ice for him. Draisaitl needs to drive Line 2 with Holloway injected to add speed, heavy forecheck game and with Kane. Can still find time, if needed for McDavid Draisaitl Stack Line in game but there's zero support scoring when this team runs its five best players as a unit.
Carrick in at 4C and Ryan shifted to wing where he can still help with his smart play but have a bigger body taking the centre ice responsibilities. Brown out and Gagner in for an energy boost and greater willingness to play in hard areas. Think Stetcher's capabilities are being overrated. Sounds like Henrique injury has him too compromised.
Nugent Hopkins - McDavid - Draisaitl
Holloway - Draisaitl - Kane
Janmark - McLeod - Gagner
Foegele - Carrick - Ryan
The league is sending a message either way....it's either suspension or it's open season on star players. Send in Carrick or some other plug to headhunt late in the 3rd.If Soucey isn’t suspended I would have no issue at all with someone running Hughes from behind or sticking out a knee. If the league won’t send the message that plays like that aren’t acceptable then the team needs to. Sadly I think they’ll come out passive and game 4 will be a low emotion game like has happened in previous years.
Ummmm did you just bench their leading scorer in the playoffs?Skinner's cooked.
