GDT: The Powerhouse @ Oilers - 9pm EST

[Vinny DeAngelo]

and i'd argue that it should be cause he has a higher upside and his development as a player (not just letting him play) is far more important to the future of the team than some others. i think its about reaching their potential more than simply who is better today.

But there are levels of punishment..

If he’s an insufferable ass make him skate

Or take him off the PP and lower his minutes...


But instead it’s what top pair or press box?

 

[nevesis]

McJesus with the snipe.

 

[Machinehead]

Generational talent left wide open. Seems to be our bread and butter.

 

[will1066]

Leave McDavid wide open sure

 

[Ghost of jas]

An underrated aspect of drafting top 5. Even if you end up with an underwhelming player (Larsson) or total bust (Reinhart) some idiot will still trade you an elite player based on draft pedigree.

Unfortunately, that same idiot is no longer employed in the league anymore.

 

[Larrybiv]

That was quick. Sam jinxed the powerless PP.

 

[Vinny DeAngelo]

Some real hard work on the PK...

 

[Crease]

{1, 30, 31, ... , 41}

Is that about right? Still don't understand why there have been so many 3X goalies.

1, 30, 31, 33, 34, 35 and that is should be it. Don't ask about 32.

 

[Gresch04]

Did McDavid go to the Sidney Crosby School for the dramatic embellishment arts?

 

[Vinny DeAngelo]

Pionk holding a guy against the boards on the PK for reasons

 

[Ori]

I can`t decide who to sit next game Smith or Kevin..
We need a new blueline.

 

[GoAwayPanarin]

I miss Hajek.

 

[Rempe73]

I don’t want to be that guy but it does seem like his bar is set higher...

Yupp, if he’s not playing like a top pairing defenseman for two or more games in a row, he’s scratched.

Of course, there’s the possibility of other reasons (maturity, type of opponent, rotation). Who knows? Maybe Quinn just wants to keep things interesting for the fans in a lost season.

Kevin Smith?

That was a legit penalty, and McDavid doesn't play like that.

 

[Machinehead]

Edmonton with the Dwight King goal

 

[Ori]

We stop skating for a second almost pond hockey.

 

[Ghost of jas]

That one shouldn’t count.

 

[Bob Richards]

Why does it already look like the Rangers are the better coached team?

hey kid. y'all want some of that promising rookie coaching???

 

[KirkAlbuquerque]

cmon, a big loss tonight would be HUGE. I think Quinn is in on the tank, this lineup tonight is HORRENDOUS

 

[mike14]

2 min high-sticking?

 

[Vinny DeAngelo]

Freddy pushed him

 

[will1066]

Did McDavid go to the Sidney Crosby School for the dramatic embellishment arts?

I think Georgiev did too

 

[Calad]

Claesson was the one with the stick in Georgies neck, this should be a goal

 

[GoAwayPanarin]

that was Claesson.

 

[Larrybiv]

Oh nooooo, it's Mr. BILL! I Mean its St. Pierre! Watch this gets overturned.

 

[Filthy Dangles]

Nothing to lose by challenging other than a time out. I’m always amazed when commentators don’t understand that
