Just read Hyman having surgery today and is out for the playoffs. Crazy. Looked like a nothing hit. Not even a hit. He brushed by him.

You hate to see injuries but the way they A) Hurt Hintz initially and B) Targeted the area after he returned last game.... I ain't losing any sleep.

I didn't actually mind when Bouchard targeted Hintz. It's playoff hockey and we'd want our teams to do the same. But if Stars went after one of the Oilers players then you can't whine to the refs(teams and fans)

Especially since the Coilers know that there's virtually no chance of a reprisal that doesn't get the Stars in the box.


It feels like that has a lot to do with it. Playoff games against the Coilers lack any sort of intensity since the Coilers know they can get away with damn near murder while the other teams can pick up penalties despite being saints.


There's no "playoffs is a different breed of hockey" anymore. Especially where the Coilers are concerned.

I remember Zhadorov giving Pissy whacks to his ankle in 2022. They didn't punish him enough as they could have though.

Resting McDavid and Draisaitl for a couple of weeks before the playoffs worked.

It will usher in a new era of resting star players before the playoffs.

I was thinking this very thing. They saw what happened last year and purposely rested them for a run to the Finals.

I guess one silver lining would be that all fans hate load management, so if the Oilers were known to be the team that introduces that to the NHL that would at least get them some more hate league-wide.

Even if they lose I can't imagine why I would ever put Sportsnet on in the summer except for the first round of the draft. It's already the McDavid 365 show.

Massive blow to the Oilers forward depth losing Hyman. That's a big blow to their cup chances IMO.

I wonder what surgery it will be. Could it even cut into next season I wonder?

Last year in my heart I knew they wouldn't win. I hate how apathetic I've become this year.

#### Bettman and this divisional format. Not even because it's a cakewalk to the SCF for the Oilers. The same match-ups over and over? 2nd and 3rd round series over in 5 games? Boring as hell.

Nah I’d definitely not like a Flame doing that. It’s a gutless chicken #### play.
