Post-Game Talk: King Leo

"Leon can't play without Connor" this was pre-game, btw. View attachment 966309

And most of those games were in McDavid’s rookie season (before Drai broke out). I’d be curious to see the numbers since the 18-19 season.

What a satisfying game.

I just might have to buy a Perry jersey.

I actually don’t mind a Calgary win with a Vancouver drubbing.

Make Allvin and Rutherford do something stupid while Calgary gets a mid round nothing first rounder.

Calgary winning is hilarious. They can’t even tank properly. Organizationally this finishing around the bubble has to be worst case scenario and that’s exactly what they will do.

I know the media who don’t have Leon even ranked in the top five for Hart voting won’t have even watched our game tonight, or any of the games we have played without Connor, which is a shame, as then the silly narrative that he is nothing without Connor would finally end.

It should have ended when he won the Hart Trophy. That Toronto media is so toxic and not just in sports.

‘Work harder’ is not a system.

Tochett always has been overrated as a coach. He got the job on pure nepotism. Didn’t work his way up the ranks. Last year was a fluke.

Yeah. Kostin hasn't found his game though this season. KK seems really to not like this sort of thing. Not sure if you caught it but he dug into Perry at one point yelling at him to get off the ice. I didn't like that from KK because Perry was really orchestrating and getting in Nucks heads. But KK wanted to cool it down. Kk really doesn't like the juices flowing too much. He's the kind of coach that prefers the composure. I thought Perry did well. Let the boys play in a game like this. Oilers earned the right for a lb of flesh in this one and the fans were all for it.

Is that what you think KK was yelling at? When the cam cut to him, I was surprised seeing him screaming. I thought maybe he was giving it to the ref and asking how is that just a roughing call. Dropping the gloves and taking three swings. I’d be disappointed if he was giving it to Perry who played his role perfectly tonight.

Did Pettersson even play tonight?

Can't believe that guy is currently being paid 3M more than Draisaitl LMFAO

He's probably distracted, he just got ripped off by some Swedish real estate scammer.

I think he was yelling at the ref because they told him he had to get off the ice.

Was hilarious when Perry was having his way with Hughes, and Petey made a weak attempt to try and break it up, Rico barely grabbed him, and Petey just wilted, just watching his captain take abuse.

Even funnier - reading Canucks fans all mad about how you can't just wrestle guys down to the ice.

Meanwhile Perry literally got a penalty, and like... Did they not pay attention for the last week?

 

[LTIR]

This is stupid considering the goals against tonight.

Tambo, you're so strange. The team's elite #3 goalie is just that lol

Pickard is no worse than Skinner and is good enough to be our #1 going forward.

I thought his system was half the team to shoot at 20%.

I hope you're wrong on this one, Perry was a beast tonight and that should be nothing but encouraged.

If thats only a 2 minute penalty, I wish we could go back in time and have Perry return the favour to Hughes.

They’re playing just consistent enough with Vancouver and St. Louis playing just shitty enough for the Flames to be a WC team. With our luck, Edmonton will finish first in the division with Vegas getting Calgary in round 1 and bitch slapping them right out of the playoffs while the Oilers draw LA again and it’s another war of a series.

 

[Oilhawks]

Salty tears. Lol.

Imagine if our sports journalists were such shameless homer fanboys

 

[McSpecial DraiBlend]

Fun game!!

Morphs 4th star: Desharnais 6 PIM’s

Podz led the team with 6 hits.

Stop I can only get so hard.

Does Pejorative SlurJean know that Buffalo is one of the worst teams in the league? Probably not

Seems like its more pts than that the way Drai plays when McD is out.

 

[McDrai]

Vancouver really gave up a ton of chances. We could have potted 10 against them. Hyman and Draisaitl were world class tonight.

 

[Drivesaitl]

Did Pettersson even play tonight?

Yes he was. I remember seeing him crying on the bench. You hate to see it.

jk aside the only time I noticed him was that depressed look he usually has on the bench.

 

[bellagiobob]

Nucks fans are funny

And here I thought it was just the Cuck players that quit on the team.

 

[Tobias Kahun]

Lots of complaining on twitter by cucks fans about how Perry went after hughes and that there has to be a call.

Did they not see Perry got a 2 minute penalty for roughing?

By far the dumbest fanbase in the league.
