[Three On Zero]

That explains a lot.

Ooooooooooh, shots fired

 

[forsbergavs32]

That explains a lot.

That I'm tortured with Taylor Swift? Absolutely

 

[Ncit3]

Really haven't watched these teams too much except when playing the Avs or on national games. Have they given up such uncontested slot chances all season long? Seems like it'll bite them against better teams.

Yes

 

[Akrapovince]

I’ve never played hockey at a competitive level, but have a limited understanding of playing.

Along the boards, which player takes most of the toll when a hit occurs, the person hitting or the person getting hit?

I get that all hits are different, but generally speaking. Does hitting wear down opponents that much if you’re taking force too?

I’ve been told if you’re glued to the boards it helps absorb the contact and “ricochets” it back.

 

[OilerBaron]

Drai is looking hurt, sit him down

 

[TheNumber4]

If the Nucks were smart they would let Drai shoot on the PP, he may pull the muscle again.

 

[Summer Rose]

That I'm tortured with Taylor Swift? Absolutely

 

[SullivanT]

Drai still looks like he is in pain on the bench

It’s really situational

 

[Ncit3]

Yes

Woof. Maybe the pacific is just baby soft.

 

[LTIR]

Draisaitl is cooked... when Pettersson is skating faster than you then you better call it a night.

 

[syz]

Seeing a lot of the old "change after an icing anyways to make the refs have to sort things out and therefore negate the point of not being able to change" these playoffs.

 

[Zirakzigil]

Then what would I be left with?

Annoying @Three On Zero with the rest of us

 

[Three On Zero]

The Pacific is the worst in the league

Annoying @Three On Zero with the rest of us

I find you all very endearing

I thought that was just in the job description.

 

[Three On Zero]

What kind of otherworldly dive was that Janmark? Did a 720 spin

 

[Akrapovince]

It’s really situational

It just seems like a lot of the Oilers are getting the worse of the exchange after engaging contact.

Yea but at least the west coast is the best coast

 

[Three On Zero]

If you don’t brace properly you can take the brunt of it instead of giving the brunt of it. The body also works in mysterious ways

 

[Chris5225]

Hot potato out there.

 

[Three On Zero]

Yea but at least the west coast is the best coast

Debatable

 

[forsbergavs32]

I thought that was just in the job description.

It's been grandfathered into our union contract (unlike our dental coverage)

Ah against the better teams eh ? The Canucks finished ahead of the Avs in the over all standings.

 

[Three On Zero]

These teams look like ass
