[snag]

ChIcAgO?!?!?!!!!?!??

Rofl...like duh, eh?

 

[5 Mins 4 Ftg]

30 second timeout. Woody was allergic to those.

 

[KeithIsActuallyBad]

Better score here…

 

[FanOfSadTeam]

Talbot is good now. There was a time when he let in almost every first shot on goal.

He finally forgot the teachings if Darth Schwartz

And it's only called once. No clue why they keep doing it.

I'm really surprised there's not more pressure from the NHLPA to get the refs to crack down on those really dangerous plays, even when there isn't an injury on the play.

I think it's hard sometimes with the speed of the game and other times guys turn their backs and eat pucks to prevent turnovers/collect pucks. But I agree obvious ones need to be obsolutely called and rule enforced.

 

[KarmaPolice]

Really smart to take a timeout here, IMO. This is a great chance to get up in the game.

30 second timeout. Woody was allergic to those.

Surprised these clowns didn't give them a bench minor for delay of game.

 

[OilerTyler]

I feel like LA is definitely getting another PP so we better score on this

 

[nexttothemoon]

Knob will look like a genius if this works out.

 

[Sra1974]

Damn, wasted pp

 

[KeithIsActuallyBad]

Whatever they drew up wasn’t very good.

 

[JeffSkinner53]

The pass back to mcdavid on the PP seems a bit redundant and easy to defend.

 

[Sra1974]

Sitting near that idiot whistling must be annoying

 

[Shizuka]

If he could turn into a modern-day Tik that would be pretty sweet.

That would be more up Tullio's lane, but he's not quite as irritating. He also gets injured pretty often, concerning for a smaller frame like him. But I agree, they need more abrasiveness in the line. Too many cupcakes and passive guys who will not drag teammates into the fight. Other teams seem to get it and make efforts.. but with this team's atrocious scouting staff and general incompetence, well..

 

[Ritchie Valens]

For late December, this game has a playoff feel to it.

 

[nexttothemoon]

Nice pass Brown.

 

[TopShelfGloveSide]

VD giving me playoff flashbacks.

 

[Ritchie Valens]

How the f*** does Desharnais f*** that pass up.

 

[FanOfSadTeam]

I feel like they're gonna Oiler it

 

[Sra1974]

For late December, this game has a playoff feel to it.

20 or so games including 2 series Ina couple of years will do that.

 

[Ginger Papa]

Am I hearing things or is someone blowing a whistle when the Oilers gain the offensive zone? I could swear I’ve heard it a few times??

 

[nexttothemoon]

French "connection" there with VD and PLD going at it.

 

[SupremeTeam16]

I’ve heard it too.

 

[Jimmi McJenkins]

Desharnais has the patience of a saint to not take a retaliation on Dubois

 

[Valhallis]

I heard that too. Seemed like at one point earlier the Kings let up thinking it was offside or something but the play went on.
