Post-Game Talk: Oilers 4 Leafs 3

[Cleetus]

So did the team go to Vancouver or did they come back. I think it would be best to just stay out there.

think the leafs are playing at home on Thursday....

Tavares won the draw--->possession for the Leafs--->a solid scoring chance for Nylander.

What's inexcusable about that?

You knew they were going to play McDavid and Draisaitl - if they got possession JT was always going to be too slow to keep up.

Not only that. They just aren't good at keeping high on the puck. Draisaitl showed he could run roughshod against their line 5x5. With Mcjesus on top of that, it was game over.

The three game Vancouver series is all in Toronto, so everyone is back home now.

Oh shit thought we were in Vancouver for a few. Good they’re back home and getting some rest.

Wrong

Well now I'm convinced

Wow spitting some spicy takes bro.

Columbus took out Tampa the year before pandemic and went far. What about their run that playoffs?

They're a good team. Well coached. Got some crazy ass goaltending against us but we were equally as unlucky 5v5. But I wouldn't say they are garbage team.

What do you mean what about their "run" to the second round of the playoffs the year prior? They had Bobrovsky, Panarin and Duchene. They WERE a good team with those three guys on their roster. The team we played? They're not even close to a good club, they're in the bottom half of the league, and have won 4/10 games to start this Season as well.

The truth hurts but the reality is CBJ is AT BEST a fringe playoff team (I don't think believe a playoff team and expect them to miss this year)

 

[Notsince67]

Well now I'm convinced

Your own detailed explanation in your hot take merited an equally detailed response.

Micheyev has no offensive ability? Really lol? Micheyev has played with scrubs for the most part of his NHL career...once he gets 1 he will get 10, sorry disagree wholeheartedly on your take on micheyev

Who are these scrubs you are speaking off?

What makes you think if he nets one he'll net 10? I mean what has he done in his short NHL career leads you to believe that he has any scoring ability ?

He had these moments of glory last year but never consistently putting anything together. Everyone likes him because of his character but the player isn't a very good one. Hustles, skates yes. But definitely not top 6 worthy

I'm guessing that it comes down to Sportsnet paying more for the regional game rights. All of these little regional fifedoms over multiple networks are the result of the NHL cutting up and parcelling out the rights for maxiumum dollars...inconvenience for viewers be damned.

We just cut most of our dish programming because we have an android box so no sports channels but we still get the Canadian Networks.

And a 41 year old Joe Thornton is lol? How do you know what he’s worth when he’s barely played with those guys...he’s found a nice little niche on the 3rd line at the moment but I think he’s worth more than that, personal opinion and yes you can see skill there

Now Drai and McDavid are torching Ottawa.

They might get close to 100 points in this North division

Sure Jan.
