Dowling with his 2nd career goal, 1-0 Dallas.

Hopefully his mom saw this one

Does Kassian ever hit anyone without leaving his feet?

McDavid must have heard all that chatter about Mackinnon and Draisaitl being just as good as him.

Still Hate that the sucks somehow tanked their way into him.

Is Neal actually a -1 in this game? I guess lots of PP goals but still.

I can't explain it any other way, but you look at that roster and outside of McDavid and Draisaitl its a complete trash heap, but on most nights they're getting above average goaltending, and they're scoring goals on un screened goalies from the blueline and just getting every possible. bounce. They're for the most part getting outplayed and yet they're winning games.
Maybe but I wouldn't read too much into this game...Avs have massive injuries including both their goalies

They’ll live and die with McDavid and Draisaitl. They’re both having a white hot start to the year so the team has a good record. But if you look at the games where McDrai don’t both get multiple points it’s pretty much an auto-loss. If those two cool down, the team will drop pretty dramatically. But they might be good enough to drag the rest of that garbage roster to the playoffs. We’ll see.

They can go .500 the rest of the season and get ~90 points. Probably enough to make it.

They won’t cool down. Maybe not 6 points a night but they’ll get them to the playoffs. They’re making it.

If Mcdavid gets another goal he doesn’t have to practice tomorrow.

Up 6-2, 5 minutes left and Mcdingle and Draisaitl out in full force. Careful now Mcdingle, don’t get injured....

Edmonton gives me 2015 Flames vibes. I don’t think they’ve deserved their wins and they’re getting carried by unsustainable play but I think they’ll fluke their way into a playoff spot.

Classy.

I wouldn't post something like this, even if I thought it, due to Karma.

2 min for knocking an Oiler down. Make sure you get mcdingle on again there red.
Edit: sitting Connor. 2nd unit is on. Should be an easy kill.

No, you interpreted my post wrong. No ill intent there. I am saying no need to have your star on at this point. Connor isn’t very good at dialling it back.. look at the drive to the net last season leading to his injury.

They live and die with one line that they abuse every night with TOI, at some point in mid January or February that will fall apart due to fatigue or injury, they crash and burn then

No, it's clear what you posted.

Bad to wish an injury on a player, any player.

Karmically bad.

All McDrai and nothing else beating up on a banged up Avs team with AHL goalie in the net. Plan the parade.
