I think this is where Dallas has to adapt and adjust.

From my perspective it looked like Dallas knew damned well that if they even coughed on McDavid they'd be on the PK so they steered him but never touched him.

They've got to figure it out because if you want to nullify him you've gotta hit him.

No chance Skinner plays that well again tonight. 3-1 Dallas.

They've also given up more even strength goals than any other team.

He knows that as I've mentioned it to him multiple times. The point of his account is to make ridiculous statements and make flames fans look bad. Then he uses his own comments and posts them in Oiler forums and Facebook groups.

Just a reminder that they are among us, and they are scum.

His feelings were hurt when I was being optimistic that huberdeau would have a rebound year.



This guy only lives to hate on the oilers. Whereas I'm hopeful for the flames.

Having now watched the 3 games in the 3rd round so far, these series should both be awesome. Clear villains in my eyes (Oilers, Rangers), and some very hard hockey being played.

I expect Dallas will pour it on tonight, and hopefully they crack Skinner wide open.

It disgusts me to say but, the Edmonton defense has been extremely efficient at poking away pucks and making life miserable for opposing offenses

I remember spending a game with an Australian family on vacation who just happened to sit next to me and generally, I get it, they dont know the game, they dont know the rules, they just kept asking and talking and enjoying and I had a great time too.

They started off as Coyotes fans because it was only other place in North America that they'd been...but I quickly resolved that.

I should be on CSEC payroll!

When I moved to Vancouver to go to school a bunch of us went to a Giants playoff game and one of my Brazilian classmates was pumped. She spent the whole game yelling "kill him!" every time someone went in for a hit.

Well thats a little much, but okay...you can start there...I guess.

Helping people learn to love a new sport is actually a really fun experience.

Daily Faceoff has Wyatt Johnston centering a kid stars line with Robertson and Stankoven, Duchene at 2C and Seguin and Benn getting the band back together. I am intrigued.

As much as I hate them, Edmonton has been playing good hockey lately.


With that being said, Dallas went down 0-2 in the series against Vegas, only to come back and win. I have a hell of a lot more confidence in Vegas closing out a series than Edmonton, so I am still very optimistic Dallas crushes the hearts and souls of those sweatpants and good shoes wearing crowd.
