Chucky's interview was also great. You can see how he's really matured.

The reporters tried to goad him into answering questions and he just straight-up shut them down.

Friendly reminder
We are on the verge of seeing Corey perry lose in the stanley cup finals for the fourth time in five years with 4 different teams.

In fairness, all of the Florida interviews were great. Maurice, Chucky, Ekblad, etc...they've got that dead-eye stare. They are on a mission.

All I can say is: "GO BOB!"

Not sure if FATA yet, but here's the stick on the puck outside the blue line...no POGDOG penalty for that.

I was pretty sure his stick was in contact at the very least above the blue line

Thanks for sharing

I think we can all agree though, that as distasteful as it is having the Oilers in the SCF...that win was damned satisfying.

Now. Two more.

2 more wins. Preferably the cup being lifted in game 4. Get it done Panthers.

Imagine when they get eliminated, his tears will be glorious.

McDavid punches Tkachuk while being restrained by an official ; no call on the play *

Maybe we should nickname him Buffalo Bill.

Just to rub it in.

He's such a punk...cheap shotting Chucky while the Ref protects him?

I hope Chucky levels his ass.

I watched both games on ABC and then immediately switch it to Sportsnet to see the crying and excuses.

He answered all of the questions thoughtfully. I appreciated the insight he gave on Rodrigues, particularly the question about him being deferential to stars, and how he ended up on that line

But with respect to Barkov, very succinct. Grim. Calm demeanour, but seems to me behind that calm demeanour he was furious.

They asked him a few times. Paraphrasing,

“Any update on Sasha”
“No”

“Should the league be looking at (the elbow)”
“The league looks at every hit”

“If it wasn’t a 3-1 or 4-1 game, could Barkov have returned”
“It was 2-1 with 9:28 left. I’m not holding him”

“You don’t seem to be (giving a response to the Draisaitl elbow). What are your feelings on the Draisaitl hit”
“This isn’t the Oprah Winfrey show. My feelings don’t matter”


I suspect broken jaw. I wonder how the league will reconcile Barkov either missing games or showing up wearing a fishbowl, but them not suspending that dirtbag

It was a really bad hit on Barkov. He doesn't dive or fake it, straight up elbow to the face. I wonder how canadian fans would react if that elbow hits McDavid's jaw.

Well I for one would be leaping out of my seat and cheering like a crazy person.

"Do it again!"
