The Canucks were one game away from the Conference Finals, so that must mean they've been right on that edge for the past few years ya?
- NewYorkNuck

Yeah, hopefully the new management won't be influenced by the loud part of the fan base in Van anymore.

I've heard Wright compared to Patrice Bergeron on more than one occasion and if that's true, I'm thinking the Habs can live with that type of "sparkle". 400 goals, almost 1000 points. If Bergeron decides to keep playing, he's still close to a point a game player. Winner
- Hardbalz

Also the best defensive centre in the history of the game, points are nice though.

He's clearly playing hurt like Drai...but still needs to pull his head out of his ass out there. Some major brain fucks.

They are simply outclassed. I’ve been saying Mack is the better all-around player on here for years, seeing it now.

Canucks prospect Jonathan Myrenberg will play in the Allsvenskan next season.

Hopefully regular minutes on a top 4 pair.

And you’re still wrong. The Avs have far more depth but Mac is not better than McDavid.

McDavid is the only guy on the planet that can do what he does.

There is zero doubt they are both incredible.

McDavid is the best on the planet talent wise and it's not close

Salary salary cap where your team is build wise all roll into building a hockey team but talent wise it isn't even close

Avs have played him really well, they are better at defence than I thought, we might be looking at a dynasty starting here goaltending might be an issue though.

That was a good game. Tampa really pouring it on NYR were just hanging on in that third

Rangers heavily outshot again. 31 out of 52 wins they were out shot in the regular season.

But yet here the Oilers are in the Conference finals...go figure lol. Canucks time will come. Just hoping this new MNGT group does the right things and doesn't set the club back another 5-10 years. Folks shouldn't expect what Rutherford did in PIT to happen here.
- LordHumungous


Like I said, this is a high water mark for the Oilers for a while. Enjoy. But there's a huge difference between the two teams on the ice.

Perimeter or high danger shots?

Sounds like 1 game suspension for Evander Kane. As per Elliotte Friedman.

Per game or per period?

They were below average in 5v5 in the regular season for high danger scoring chances.

EDIT: here's the playoffs.

Though I doubt Oilers win the next game, that is a joke. Hits like that should be a suspension for the rest of the round. Players tend to be willing to take out another teams top players to get a better chance at winning with minor slaps on the wrist like this.

And MacKinnon is shutting him down. Because he can play defence, how’s McDavid doing defensively in this series?

If they can find a cheap goalie or 3…

But I can see McD getting frustrated and wanting out. I don’t like the body language that he gives off when things don’t go his way. He’s worse than HT Miller

They need cheap everything to fill out their roster for next season.
