Dave Tippett's Mike Smith, everybody.

This isn't the Mike Smith show I had in mind.

Hopefully Koskinen in the 2nd?

Why did the start Smith?

Why haven't they took Smith out?

I know 2 and 3 weren't his fault, but he killed all momentum for 10 minutes.

For (frank) sakes

Pull him now!!!

THEY SHOULD HAVE TAKEN HIM OUT AFTER NUMBER THREE FOR (frank) SAKES.

No one has faith in front of him

Lol

Pull him now!!!

If a goalie allows three goals in the third period, you pull him.

They will score a fifth, and the game with be out of reach.

That play killed all of our momentum!

Exactly. Like all but that one goal absolutely was not his fault. But they have no faith in front if him.

Well I’ve certainly seen enough today.

Like... all but one of those goals were his fault.

But had he no misplayed it, who knows where this game is.

Draisaitl should spear someone in the nuts again.

If he doesn't misplay that first puck, then he gets the benefit of the doubt on the double deflection. As is, nope. He's earned nothing and the fact that Tippett played him is nepotism to a goalie that DOESN'T HAVE TWO YEARS LEFT ON HIS CONTRACT.

Lackluster

Put Draisaitl with McDavid and Kassian now!!!

I’d rather NOT give Chicago another PP.

Anyone that has a brain can tell he's rattled. He should have been pulled after the third one (I literally said it after the second cause I saw this happening).

I think Tippett wouldn't pull him because he'd throw a hissy fit. I say, so what, you don't wanna get pulled, don't allow three (frank)ing goals.

Still lots of time, Oilers will come out flying in the 2nd.

So then we can get caved in on three lines, great.

Nah, reunite Nuge-Drai-Yamo and give a wakeup call for McDavid's line- they need to be better.

Oh I'm fairly certain this game is a wash. Sure there is a tonne of time, but Edmonton looks like a (frank)ing house team out there.

He did it last playoffs and turned into their best player for the rest of it so, hey, who knows.
