WCSF Game 5: Edmonton Oilers Vs Vegas Golden Knights | 7PM PT 8PM MT | TNT, CBC, SN, TVAS

[Three On Zero]

If you go back and look at the pre game comments this was all pretty much predicted with Kozari. Equal opportunity bad.

100%, this game was going to be called extremely tight

 

[Hockeyholic]

This 5 minute PP is the series.

If they don't tie it, I think it ends Sunday.

Otherwise, game on and a dramatic finish.

 

[swiftwin]

People want Edmonton to lose so bad they will pretend that wasnt a bad hit?

Bad hit, but not a 5

 

[Tobias Kahun]

Like, there's no excuse for what Pietrangelo did. But at least you can understand why his blood was boiling.

Everything was going perfectly for Vegas and Keegan does that f***ing stupid shit. I hope thats the last game he ever plays for this team. f***ing dipshit.

He should be forced to play 20 minutes a game.

 

[McFlash97]

Kolesar is Kane from alibaba.

Fn goof. Your out

 

[LickTheEnvelope]

Not sure how anyone is defending this. Basically threw the hit straight into his back/head from behind.

I am not even close to an oilers fan but this hit was ridiculous.

 

[PuckG]

Same people whining about game management here had no complaints about both calls leading to the Vegas 5v3. Odd.

 

[SeanMoneyHands]

If Vegas miraculously escape it and manage to kill off the 5 min major, Kolesar owes the entire team dinner

 

[Markster]

Is Kolesar a Dman or Forward? I don't even know

He plays a sort of hybrid position called POS.

 

[McFlyingV]

I mean it’s a boarding but he pretty much turned into the boards to make it worse at the last second. That’s a soft 5.

He didn't turn at all

 

[Koivu11]

There’s been so many hits from behind head first into the boards recently. It’s gonna end up real bad one day.

Reffing has been shit both ways, but we knew that the league was going to send a message this game

 

[Bounces R Way]

There has been some serious mouth breather moments in this series. From both teams.

 

[nturn06]

The game misconduct seems a bit over the top: it would have been a pretty standard boarding if the guy hadn’t inexplicably/unexpectedly doubled over.

I think that any boarding which results into head/facial injury is automatic game misconduct.

 

[Captain97]

The NHL is a garbage unserious league. The fact they continue to call these ridiculous majors in the playoffs when they want the result to change is apparent.
I wonder which of their many sports book sponsors called this one in.

Wtf are you talking about? That was text book boarding through the numbers+ he shoves the players head into the board and the player hit was bleeding and had trouble getting up.

This isn't a player who dives, he's a goddamn viking most of the time. The fact he takes a couple minutes to get up is a sign that is a bad hit.

 

[HanSolo]

He should be forced to play 20 minutes a game.

Don't you put that evil on us.

 

[Bruce Granville]

Oilers fans still think the refs are out to get them?

Compared to some of the shit teams like Minnesota got away with these playoffs, that hit is nothing

Only Suter got away with all sorts of stuff.

 

[Gaylord Q Tinkledink]

Kolesar is Kane from alibaba.

Fn goof. Your out

So, a scam ? Isn't that a scam website ?

 

[LickTheEnvelope]

LOL @ intermission. "Vegas... always a place for bad decisions... and this is another"

 

[gunnergunther]

He didn't turn at all

The back angle clearly shows he did. It would’ve been a regular rub out if he stayed upright.

 

[Dust]

Anytime you hit a guy in the numbers you're at the mercy of them ruling it a 5. Given the circumstances and state of the period, it was extra dumb. Give Kolesar an extra 2 for being a moron.

 

[Jesus Take the Wheel]

Kolesar forgot what period it is, everyone knows you gotta wait till the end of the third to take 5 minute majors before attempting to injure with minimal consequences

 

[Reparlana]

That was a pretty dirty hit at a dumb time by a dirty player. Vegas in full control, Edmonton can't generate away from the power play and that opens the door to let them back in.

 

[notsocommonsense]

Upon further review, that hit by Kolesar is even dumber than I thought

 

[peconcan]

That hit on Ekholm should be minimum 5 games. Nothing there besides attempt to injure

 

[snag]

Reffing has been shit both ways, but we knew that the league was going to send a message this game

And the message was what based on the comment and your reply?
