Yes and yes.

It also really looked like McDavid did that to himself.

This.

Just like his collar bone. He plays with such speed that accidents are going to happen from tome to time. Hope he is ok.

Wow on that replay it didn’t look like a penalty. That’s all on McDavid.

McDavid wasn't really grimacing in pain...gotta think that's an MCL/ACL. Would be really interesting to see how he comes back from a proper ACL tear given his whole thing is speed.

That wasn't even a penalty on Gio.... Gio never touched McDavid and McDavid grabbed Gio's stick - holding the stick for McDavid

It definitely wasn't dirty. He tripped him but it's not like he planned to steer McDavid into the post. McDavid could have just as easily collided with Smith causing in to both players.

Some nasty things being said about Gio on that other board right now. Of course no on wants to see McDavid hurt, but that was just a hockey play at high speed.

And the Oilers score on the PP. Maybe the Flames could get one of those tonight. And Louie says it wasn't dirty. Of course it wasn't. Why even bring it up. Sheesh. That was an unfortunate hockey play.

Don't go into playoffs like this man.

That said they'll probably explode in the third.

Where the hell did I say that I wanted him hurt for entertainment? Take your dress off miss, that was a reference to caveman lucid doing that to Tkachuk, while in a scrum.

I'm actually surprised that doesn't happen more often with the way McDavid goes to the net. Hard to say what happened here -- Gio dove for the poke check but McDavid also had his hand on Gio's stick and obviously was not able to keep his balance after contact.



P.S. Goal number 22 for Chia$$on. You know what to do K. Gretzky...
