Pavelski stiiiiiiiiiilllll on the powerplay ????

How long have you been watching the NHL and reading HFBoards? 90 percent of discussions are about the refs.

Oh I understand but in not gonna say refs don't make a bad call from time to time but they go for both teams. Just wanted know if it was a legit call because I know I'm gonna hear that how refs favor edmonton every time they score a pp goal

 

[Bruce Granville]

You need to make a save at some point. 2 goals in 3 shots is not acceptable.

And there was no deflection, no screen, no surprising pass…

 

[Bizzare]

Why isn’t Dallas playing their best goal scorer on PP1?

They’ve got rocks for brains.

 

[jgs]

Stars trying too hard to set up the shot from the middle and Oilers have the middle clogged up. Got to shot the puck to the net when they are at the top of the circle.

 

[Dr John Carlson]

You need to make a save at some point. 2 goals in 3 shots is not acceptable.

Maybe don't allow a 50 goal scorer to get 10 feet in front of the net without anybody within a stick's reach, rather than blaming the goalie.

Where did Edmonton’s PK rank in season? Wasn’t it bottom 15?

 

[End on a Hinote]

Meanwhile at the NHL head office in New York.....

 

[StoveTopStauffer]

Pavelski holding sticks like crazy.

 

[Pablo El Perro]

PK is now 49 for 52 in the playoffs

I'd say LA skewed that, but Dallas and the Nucks weren't much better

 

[TheUnusedCrayon]

Nurse nearly shoved his face into Skinner's skate blade. Jesus Christ that was close. Wow.

 

[Bizzare]

If the Stars play like this the rest of the game and stay out of the box, I like their chances.

Deboar

 

[RedRocking]

Bob and Otter are the same type of goalie…they have a huge mean deviation. Bob rose to the occasion, Otter gets outplayed by Skinner.

He wasn’t great in the Avs series either.

He’s a good goalie, but back when this site was “OMG Stars will win the Cup”, he was called phenomenal, etc.. When he’s just very streaky.

 

[DieSendungmitderMaus]

2 goals on 3 shots. Knoblauch is gonna lay into his guys for taking that unnecessary pot shot at 5v5

 

[Leonardo87]

It’s almost like Stu and Otter switched bodies.

 

[iCanada]

So...


The Stars strategy was to turn the elimination game into a special teams affair? With us?! Edmonton?

man oh man are there ever a TON of people who have some crow to eat about their comments on McDavid/Draisaitl

 

[nuxnux1]

Well Edmonton Florida will be a fun series to watch at least

 

[PaulD]

except for ottinger

 

[Matty Sundin]

Dallas has shown up. Debour needs to do his part in the players he sends out though. Ben is a worthless tit.

 

[robertocarlos]

Thank goodness. Finally the guy scores 10 goals per million AAV. About time.

Goals are worth $200k each.

 

[MessierII]

I'd say LA skewed that, but Dallas and the Nucks weren't much better

Dallas has scored 0 same as LA

 

[voxel]

Great period by the Stars but not such much by Otto.

 

[MichaelFarrell]

I'd say it's on the coaching. I heard it was Benn and Pavelski that have been leading tye changes in their comeback a few games ago

Both of those men have played over 2300 games combined. Both captains. Both played for great teams. Simply can’t compete with good teams. Can turn it on when you need them to. It’s on the players and coach.
